An Amazing Pianist
Yes, your eyes do not deceive you. Yes, that is Ben Folds. Yes, that is a giant “frowny” face. And yes, that is a keytar.
And yes, it is extremely refreshing to see an entire audience hyped up over a rock group centered on the amazing musical prowess of the pianist!
Speaking of other, far less amazing pianists, this weekend my roommate Ken and I performed our second coffeehouse in as many months at Unurban Cafe in Santa Monica, in front of a rocking crowd of about 9 people. We played a short set of 6 songs, two of which were written by Ken, and three of which were genuinely co-written by both him and myself. It was just him on guitar and myself on my keyboard (which honestly sounded much better than the incredibly out-of-tune piano they house at the cafe), so as you can imagine it was a pretty mellow set, but the feedback was mostly positive (or so I’ve heard). Next steps: (1) Find drummer. (2) Book Staples Center.

So what is your new group’ s name so I can look up a clip of your performance on You-Tube? : )
Did you hire the guy with the Unhappy Face from the Ben Fold’s show?
