Looks like Emerson Hart formerly of Tonic will be opening for Live starting September 14th at Dewey Beach until October 7th(minus festival shows).

Well I don't know maybe he is doing a Tonic song or two for those that don't know who he is. I think he should stick to his own stuff, Tonic isn't around anymore, it seems kind of silly for him to be playing those songs when he has his own thing going. His music is really good in my opinion, he doesn't need Tonic songs to sell himself to me.

I don't see anything wrong with playing songs from his old band. I know Glen Phillips sings a ton of Toad the Wet Sprocket songs at his solo shows, and they're really not together at this point (broke up in the late '90s, though they have been touring on and off and will be on this year's Rock Boat). It's about the only shot you'll get at hearing those songs live.
