Time?  Hiro's Song?  Hava Nagila? Freebird Jam?   I'm about ready to cry at how many gems he played at this concert.  You are SO lucky you got to watch that.  Damn, what an INCREDIBLE setlist and concert.  

Also, would it be at all possible to get a bootleg of this show and put it up on WUWTL?  Quilty, maybe you could request it from the venue or try to contact the people who work the soundboard?  I think it's just wishful thinking but I think everyone on here would kill for a recording of this.

If anybody out there in "Foldsland" could possibly burn me a copy I'll be glad to pay for it or trade anything I've got music wise. I'm not too good at the downloading thing. Many thanks Mike

Same here, I'd be happy to pay for a burned copy.  PM me!

I just won a Jackson Cannery 7" on eBay for $61!!!!  Soooo happy!!!  I was willing to shell out a couple hundred on it.  I was so nervous as the auction was ticking down.  It went from 0 bids and $20 to 8 bids and $61 in about 45 seconds.  According to the seller, this copy was once in the hands of Caleb Southern and he gave it to his neighbor at the time.  That neighbor then gave it to this current seller.  Pretty cool little history I think.  I'm going to try and get it signed when I see him on April 30th at UMD.  Will post pics when it arrives!

I hadn't even thought of that.  You're probably right.  Are you saying a custom t-shirt company wouldn't even make that for me because it's a copyrighted image?

General Board / Requesting a Big Picture of the BFF Cartoon Piano

« on: April 03, 2010, 05:29:01 PM »

Hey guys, I know this may be an odd request but I'm trying to make a custom t-shirt with the classic BFF cartoon piano on it.  Problem is I can't find a good picture of it anywhere online for some strange reason.  If anyone could upload this picture, PM me, or even just show me a link, I would be extremely grateful.  I do feel a little foolish not being able to find such a popular image but it's not coming up on google images or anything :/  Thanks guys!

April 30th - University of Maryland College Park, MD w/ Weezer

http://www.diamondbackonline.com/news/weezer-and-ben-folds-top-art-attack-lineup-1.1280446

Cannot wait to see this.  Just saw him on 3/26 at 9:30 and now he's coming to my school a month later  Only $5 too.  I hope he doesn't just play his popular songs though...but being a huge concert at a university he might just do that.  Anyway, I'm psyched to see him again!

First of all, I'm so glad I just found this forum.  I can't believe I never found it earlier.  From being here for just a few days I've learned a ton and discovered the incredible wokeupwaytoolate.com  Anyway, I went to the 9:30 show last friday and it was an awesome show.  I was so happy when he played Eddie Walker and fell in love with The Secret Life of Morgan Davis the first time I heard him play it.  And I was surprised to hear Bitches Ain't Shit....I thought he retired that song?  (So many noob questions I know). Hearing Kate, Emaline, and Evaporated was awesome as well.  And like Terp02 said, I wish he had played Video or some other old classics.  By the way Terp02 where were you standing?  I was about 15 feet from the stage, right in the center.
