Has anybody heard this? I can expect only good things from Ben Folds with Orchestral accompaniment.

I always wanted to get his first DVD, but maybe I'll just hold out and get this one instead. "Evaporated" is one of the most emotional songs I've ever heard and I prefer it over "Brick" in the respect that they're both somewhat beautiful downer songs.

Not the ideal setlist, but I guess he was somewhat limited in what he could play.

this is going to sound amazing. I am so excited. Something about Ben Folds and the diversity in his song base is just simply incredible. I am pumped.

Steven's Last Night in Town, I presume, is going to be amazing. I love the swing feel to that song. Honestly, I've never been disappointed in anything Ben Folds has released.

I wish Ben Folds Five would get back together. I've found I don't really care for his solo stuff.

This guy is one of my favorites...I'm a huge fan. I've been to Ravinia to see him with Rufus the past two years in a row. One of the best live shows around.

I just figured that i would specify that this is a DVD. This isnt a second live cd.

And it will be completely bad ass. Just like Mr. Folds.

i highly recommend "Ben Folds Five: sessions at W54th" if thats what youre referring to. they sound truly incredible in the studio, its amazing that its a live performance, plus its the only chance i ever got to see ben folds five live. they also play a few more songs then what appears to be on this, although i will be getting this one as well.
