Following your bliss is not self-indulgent, but vital; your whole physical system knows that this is the way to be alive in this world and the way to give to the world the very best that you have to offer. There IS a track just waiting for each of us and once on it, doors will open that were not open before and would not open for anyone else. - Joseph Campell

ben folds five

A couple of weeks ago I went to my first concert of the year.  I got to see one of my favourites, Ben Folds.  Ironically this was the fifth time I've seen him, but the first time I've seen Ben Folds Five.  I saw them at the ShowBox, which was the smallest venue I've seen him at.  Let's see, I done the outdoor amphitheater thing twice.  Once at the Gorge when he opened for John Mayer, and at St. Michele Winery where he co-headlined with Rufus Wainwright.  Then I've seen him twice at the Paramount.

I was particularly pleased with this show because he did all but one of my favourite Ben Folds Five songs.  The only one he didn't do was Fair, but I'll live.

Kate
Song for the Dumped
One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces
Battle of Who Could Care Less


This is an example of my fantastic photography skills.  Ben is the red blob in the lower left hand corner.
