i went to his show tonight. i'm a little clueless about the new album (i just picked it up last week), so I'm sure there are song titles i'll bugger up.
He played for about 2 hours, and did a little solo piano section somewhere near the middle, and improv'd about being searched at the border a few times.
here's what i remember, in absolutely no order. If someone has a real setlist, i'd love to see it.

opener: bitch went nuts
effington
annie waits
landed
lullabye (solo)
brainwascht
dr yang (fake, then real)

"fake army" which he made up on the spot as a joke. awesome

tom and mary (by request for some dude in the front row)
philosophy

according to the encore setlist, he was supposed to play one angry dwarf and underground, but didn't. although a vocal group from a local university did a version of underground before the band came on.

no bitches ain't shit, although people were screaming for it the whole show. one guy near me, who'd been yelling for it all night, got angry and left when Folds picked Tom and Mary as the requested song. not before screaming "fuck you, ben folds," though. lol gotta leave with class.

no he hasn't been playing bitches ain't shit, but man whatwewant you got screwed out of that encore.

truth. the last 3 shows i've been to have had angry dwarf on the setlist, and i'm still waiting to hear it live. though not the same, fair and philosophy as the last 3 songs was pretty massive.


here's the real setlist, btw:

well I've seen angry dwarf twice with the orchestra and once with a band. it was definitely a sight to see, but yeah he rarely seems to play it here. I see it on setlists and it is never played. He's a fickle guy... his marriage track record proves that.

lol! at the show, my friends and i were talking about how he's worn a wedding band at every other show we've seen. oh folds and his litany of wives...
