2:54pm, you really are heartless. Hope Kelly gets better fast -- had no idea this happened to her.

- Fountains of Wayne will now play a full-band set (rather than the acoustic set by members of the band that was indicated in the original press release).
- Chris Barron, frontman of the Spin Doctors, will open with a solo acoustic set.

can someone confirm that nada surf (or at least matthew C.) is still on the bill? i know they are still listed on the promo "poster" on the knitting factory site, but they no longer appear on the Ticketweb listing. Thanks.
