BEN FOLDS FIVE TO REUNITE FOR ONE-OFF GIG

BEN FOLDS FIVE are planning to reunite for a one-off show which will take place in north Carolina.

The new show is part of the MySpace Front to Back series of gigs – in which various artists perform albums in their entirety.

Raising money for the Operation Smile charity, the band will perform all tracks from their last album together THE UNAUTHORIZED BIOGRAPHY OF REINHOLD MESSNER – which was released in 1999.

"Of our three albums, this one brings back the most vivid memories," Folds told Rollingstone.com

"It was actually written to be one song of many movements, which is why there are motifs that appear throughout the album. That should make Reinhold a natural to be played front to back."

Meanwhile, Folds recently revealed he had released fake versions of his own songs online, to prevent material from his forthcoming solo album WAY TO NORMAL being leaked.
