Is he coming out for Smirnoff Experience? Tiesto is headlining, which is so super-flippin awesome, but it could be cool to have Paul in as part of the show.

No he's coming out on his own for this one...

Hi there I read in your post that he is playing at 6pm? Is that correct?

Yeah it says the event starts at 6pm but I doubt he will be playing early, probably nearer to 10 or 11pm I'm guessing
