Ben Harper dedicated his Lifeline tour to Baldy.

It reads:

Hey all,

Ben here.

Never a dress code, but just a head's up. The IC's and I are gonna dust off and dress up a little for this next tour, so feel free to do the same....only if you're in the mood.

As much as this tour is focused around the kickoff of "Lifeline," these upcoming theater shows are going to be an opportunity for us to play a lot of the songs that we haven't gotten to as often as we'd like -- especially songs that we feel fit well with "Lifeline."

It will be a different musical experience, and I am excited for this -- more of a sit down, acoustic show, some amplification as well, but a mixture of all this and hopefully some new covers too.

Let's just dedicate this first tour of "Lifeline" to Brian and that eternal smile of his. I feel he'd be right up front for this one. You know what I'm saying.

From the IC's and myself, thank you for the definition you give to the music we make.
