Is it just me?

He's playing a couple of dates in California, you should go! His show at the Greek in LA sold out, I believe, although I bet tickets will be available for cheap in the parking lot the day of the show. He's also playing the Concord Pavilion in San Francisco; those tickets go on sale tomorrow morning.

I hope he does play Austin City Limits, if he extends the tour into the latter half of the summer. This is music that really ought to be played at festivals and fairs. It's a shame he's not doing Bonnaroo. He closed out the first weekend of the New Orleans Jass & Heritage Festival last week, though, and the reviews were pretty raving. Apparently, he's just having a ton of fun doing this, hitting the road with an 18-piece band, all horns and violins and banjos and stuff, and hosting a two-hour hootenanny everywhere he goes.
