Ben Folds Five Reunites For Reinhold

Last week, HT Contributor Wade Ellis Wilby listed The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner as one of his top fall albums of all-time. Well, it turns out Ben and the Ben Folds Five really dig that album as well, as the oddly-named trio will reunite on September 18 in Chapel Hill, NC for the first time since 2000 to play that album in its entirety. Coincidence? Completely.

Folds, Darren Jesse and Robert Sledge last toured together nearly a decade ago to support that massively underrated album. The boys return just a few short days after Ben’s latest album, Way To Normal, hits stores. Tickets go on sale this Monday at 10am. No word yet on whether this is a one time deal, but we sure hope not.
