Last night I was surprised with tickets to see Ben Folds in concert! My friend Jane said that her husband's boss gave them to them and she thought that it would be a fun night out together. And... it was just what I needed. The kids really like Ben Folds Five's version of "Rain Drops Keep falling on my head" so I knew what his sound was like, but as a performer he is quite different than his music! Jane and I were a little worried that it was going to be soft (because he's just on a piano) but his little life stories in between where HILARIOUS and they had his piano turned up so loud it actually hurt my ears a little. He is quite the musician... beyond playing the piano he did an AMAZING drum solo! And he said that he is now recording a piano concerto that he wrote with a symphony... and it sounded really nice. This was both of ours first secular concert and we had an extremely fun time together... put on some make-up and heels and drove off in the mini-van haha. We even got good parking, which is rare for downtown Kalamazoo. What a fun girls night out!
