BEN FOLDS CAN ROCK MY SUBURBS ANY TIME HE FEELS COMPELLED TO DO SO

I first listened to Ben Folds Five in 1998, when my friends Fred and Richard Donaldson and their gang of dudes introduced me to the band (yes, more than just the Brick song out on the radio). Turned out to be one of my favorites. I'd seen them live in concert at the X96 Bash and almost scheduled a flight back East to see a friend around a concert by Ben Folds solo style with a symphony. Well, last night Ben along with Ben Lee (and a couple other local acts: Mesa Drive, Chris Merritt, and Allred) played at SaltAir. The show was for a charity so I think along with the amazing piano hits by Ben I helped build a well in Cambodia by attending. He rocked that.... uh rocked our suburb as he told us what it's like being male, middle class and white. Sham on Mr. Folds.
