Who the fuck is Ben Folds?

Ben Folds Five. Piano rock. Couple of minor hits. College girls in the 90s thought they were cute.

Uncle Walter and Underground are pretty cool songs.

Never was a big fan, but they're o.k. Ben Folds is from NC also.

By the way, Ben has done some chat roulette stuff that was pretty funny. They'd probably be a pretty good pit band.

I loved Ben Folds Five when i was a kid, still listen to them from time to time.

Saw Ben Folds Five at Tremont Music Hall in Charlotte back around '96. They were fantastic. A North Carolina band for sure.

I would be all over that game if they did it.

Pretty sure Ben is from Winston Salem, the drummer is from the Charlotte(?), and the guitarist is from another decent-sized city in N.C. I think they were discovered in Chapel Hill. Brings back memories. They had an MTV video or two.

I saw them at Queens College around 98-99. Great show.
