Triple The Fun
Ben Folds, Rufus Wainwright, and Guster are embarking on a triple headline tour this summer, beginning June 19 in Kettering, Ohio. The month-long tour sticks mostly to the Northeast, wrapping July 13-14 with two shows at New York City’s Central Park SummerStage.
According to a post on Guster’s Web site, each act will play for one hour, with the order changing each evening.
All three are currently on tour individually. Wainwright’s European itinerary includes dates with Sting, and Folds and Guster are on North American stretches.
Wainwright is supporting Want One, the first of a two-album set. Want Two is expected this summer, as is Folds’ second solo album. Folds released two EPs, Speed Graphic and Sunny 16, last year.
Guster is supporting 2003’s Keep It Together. They’ll also be hyping their upcoming live CD/DVD package, scheduled for a May 18 release.
