One of the disadvantages to marriage is the inevitable situations of unavoidable imasculinity it heaps on you. There I was, last night, in the midst of 20,000 screaming 17 year old girls, along with my wife, at the John Mayer concert. The saving grace was the special guest, one Ben Folds. Not only was he probably the only person in the entire stadium older than me, but he rocked out with a wit and cynicism that only Elvis (Costello you fools) himself could have replicated and with a piano virtuoso that is second to none.
So, to celebrate, let us recap with some oldie but goodie Ben Folds.
There is the cover of the Postal Service song "Such Great Heights"
And the terrific remake of Dr. Dre's "Bitches Ain't Shit"
And just to prove he isn't a cheap party trick, some samples of his terrific lyrics
I, for one, slept quite satisfied with myself last night, thank you very much.
