Fred sits alone at his desk in the dark
There’s an awkward young shadow that waits in the hall
He’s cleared all his things and he’s put them in boxes
Things that remind him: ‘Life has been good’

Last night I caught Ben Folds performing at Wolf Trap, which is called “America’s National Park for the Perfoming Arts”. Wolf Trap is a beautiful venue that sits just minutes down the road from DC– it’s easy to get to, has ample parking, and allows you to bring in your own alcohol and food.

I’ve seen him a few times before in Atlanta at the Roxy and the Tabernacle, but this was definitely the most personable and energetic performance that I’ve seen from him. As always, I still kick myself for not going to see Ben Folds Five when they were together.
