Concert last night...Guster, Ben Folds, Rufus Wainwright...it was a bit of a letdown, but still well worth going to.
Guster went on first...they were amazing. Sadly, they didn't play any of my 3 favorite songs...but still amazing. Sam was right, Brian (drummer) does look like a monkey...he's awesome. He is now Joe's hero.
Ben Folds was next, I'd only heard one song of his before the concert (Army) and he played that song, which was really really cool, he had people in the audience make the trumpet sounds. He was also amazing, I really liked "Gracie" and his other songs were cool too.
But Rufus...wow. He sucked. Before he went on, he sang a song with Guster, and then he sang a song with Ben Folds, and he sounded really good in those songs, and I was thinking, "Wow, he's awesome, can't wait til he goes on". And then he started singing his first song, and I was thinking, "Wow. This song needs to end." It made my ears bleed. So did the 2nd song, and the 3rd...Guster and Ben Folds came on to sing the 4th and 5th songs with him, those weren't bad, but the 6th song sucked too, we left during that one.
So, Guster was amazing, Ben Folds was awesome, R.W. was a supreme letdown. He also spoke with a lisp, which we all found very amusing.
I got a cool tour shirt though. I'm going to wear it to Shreya's shindig today.
