Tonight Ben Folds Five Are Back!
Posted by Anna Minard on Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 12:08 PM
(Showbox at the Market) So! Ben Folds Five are coming to town, and opening for them is one half of Pomplamoose. [Pause] Okay, I had to take a minute to go get in a real-life argument with someone close to me about the perils of being yourself versus the perils of trying to play along with the Kool Kids Music Klub. It was decided that I should say the following sentence, even if it makes people think I'm a doofus: I totally don't hate Pomplamoose. I thought those videos were funny, Nataly Dawn's voice is fine, and haters can go drink Haterade or whatever. Ben Folds is a crazy genius and one time someone played me a BF song on their grandma's piano and it made me laugh-cry. The Five haven't put out an album since 19-fucking-99. I think this show will be nice.
