It's still listed on Sonar's site/I don't see why they'd cancel it.

Glad to see this, I was afraid his only area appearance would be opening for Feist.
God, i will be at that hours before doors open if i have to.
Man, I didn't even know this guy was still around. I loved his first album back but never got a chance to see him. Hmmm….

always a valid question. in this case it's because camden is across the river from philadelphia. this show is the philly date of the tour. sorta like asking why anyone would play in columbia MD or bristow VA (except that camdem is much closer to the big city than those two are).
