Thomas along with fellow band members Brian Yale, Paul Doucette and Kyle Cook are coming to town for a night of live rock music at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.

Tickets for the concert are now available for purchase. You can either buy them online from smtickets.com or you can buy them from an SM Tickets booth near you.
