Dr. Pyser
 

Any Ben Folds Five fans? The song "Theme From Dr. Pyser" is frickin' awesome (along with almost everything else they did). The story goes that they were playing a gig in Sweden and the crowd started changing "pyser" which alledgedly is Swedish for penis (any euro pelicans confirm that?). They liked the sound of the word and titled this instrumental warm-up/opening tune after the term.

My version of that album only goes up to "Missing the War".

I saw Ben Folds (minus the Five) at Illinois Wesleyan in 2004. The only song he played off of Whatever and Ever Amen was "One Angry Dwarf", for an encore. Just so happens to be my favorite song.

He's also the only person I've ever seen play a piano by reaching into the body and strumming the string by hand. He is amazing in concert.

Ben Folds is awesome. A very sophisticated sound.

Hat is back?
