I didn't get it on video, but he told us what he was doing. He basically put a small pie pan on a few of the piano strings for a rattle-y effect ... and then ran the actual piano sound through a distortion pedal. It was cool. Overall ... it was a great show. My wife is a bigger fan than I am, but I like what he does. He had a lot of crowd interaction and the band was remarkably tight. I was impressed ... The wife and I really enjoyed it him and I'd go see him again if I had the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitardustin Posted March 2, 2008 Members Share Posted March 2, 2008 Damn good stuff:thu: I've seen Ben 3 times myself. The first time I saw him the Fray was the opening band and nobody knew who they were and they really weren't all that impressive even then haha. Ben always sounds pretty damn good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SonicVI Posted March 2, 2008 Members Share Posted March 2, 2008 I saw BFF a few times and have seen Ben solo a few times. Last time was with the Houston Symphony. That was simply a spine-tingling show start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jrowan Posted March 2, 2008 Members Share Posted March 2, 2008 I saw Ben Folds at my school last year, and it ruled. There was an amazing amount of energy/movement/general craziness for someone who has to stay behind a piano for the entire show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
