great concert


went to a Ben Folds concert this evening at UNI... it was way cool i didn't have to travel out of town. i probably don't have to say this, but he was friggin amazing. hearing all the songs i used to listen to non-stop took me back, back to my days at BWC. i feel a bit bad as i've lost touch with Ben over the past couple of years... i don't even have his newest CD. i was a bit surprised by how many people were there, especially young people. it seems to me that Ben Folds, in the past few years, has been replaced by the likes of Death Cab or Bright Eyes in the hearts of indie music lovers; maybe i'm wrong. anyway, it was so good to hear all the songs that i love again and to see that Ben is still 'rockin' the suburbs (just like quiet riot did)'.

you are correct suzyb, there was a group called Ben Folds Five. Ben's solo stuff is basically the same thing, seeing as though he was the driving force behind the band. you should really check out his stuff, i recommend you check out Ben Folds Five first, then his solo stuff.
