Ben Folds doesnt look like a singer but I havn't heard anything by him I don't like.

Just found out that we will not have driving access to the 2011 MBZ AMG SLS gulwing 571 HP beast. It will be there but not for us to drive, only to drool over.

We will however have driving access to the new C63 AMG V-8, 451 HP rubber chewing beast.

Only problem is, its electronically limited to 155MPH

I've driven one handed at 155MPH before

BOooooo

That is still a fantastic opportunity Gonz. Let us know how it goes. Anything with AMG on the label is worth the effort.

no I haven't - I will have to check them out, he is a funny funny man. In fact, there is a song on his new album called "Levi Johnston Blues" - HA!!

"Ben Folds has connected, feel free to talk now." The alt.pop piano composer pays homage to internet improv artist Merton, in this hilarious video taped at a live show. He's even wearing Merton's slouchy hoodie! Video contains cussin', but thankfully all the anony-wieners have been edited out. (YouTube, thanks to the many, many readers who suggested this)

thanks Mason - LOL!

indeed. The man has some serious skill - he puts on a great live show, if you ever get the opportunity. Just bring some earplugs - out of all of the live shows I've seen over the years, his is by far the LOUDEST.

and while we're talking Ben Folds, is this song the theme song for this forum or what?!

I saw Neil Young last night. 6 rows from the stage. It was fucking amazing. I was totally blown away.

My list of best ever concerts is amended to:

1. Neil Young

That's it. That's the list.

Agree, that is a phenominal concert. I've seen him several time, Also have seen Crosby Still and Nash several time an equally great concert - have yet to see a Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young concert which they still do on occasion. Saw RUSH a couple week, a truely gret concert, very entertaining but very tiring, not one person sat throughout the entire concert.

One thing that made me VERY happy today. The neighbors barking ass dog, got sprayed by a skunk.

I'm still giggling
