I just saw him like 2 days ago and he teaches the audience right before the song. Its amazing to hear so many people singing in harmony live. When your in the middle of it, its the coolest thing ever.
im going to have to pose the same question. What is in his mouth and WHY? this song is so good with the orchestral accomp. Specially when its the Boston Pops. Love it~!
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!! I saw ben LAST night in Chattanooga, TN at the Tivoli. THIS SONG LIVE (with audience participation) will leave you with goosebumps! TOTALLY a life altering event!!! I LOVE BEN!!!!
yea its so nice i felt the same thing last year. i heard he doesnt sing this song though what songs did he sing for your concert i heard they were all unreleased ones?!?
So basically, the whole audience got three shows. Boston Pops, Ben Folds and a first round knockout with a cheese platter and some delicious orderves Great show, didnt think I would enjoy the Pops, but they were pretty awesome and Ben Folds is a god, and then when he was leaving the building we like ran into him getting in his Limo/Van thing. He waved, its on my gf camera... just an amazing night. Thats all i got for ya.
Each of their dates were screaming and it looked like he got in a couple good shots, when other people got up to pull them apart. You can see a good pic on google. So he lost his shirt, and each couple got thrown out. The weirdest part was that the conducter actually had stop the performance. So every orchestra member including the conducter. So, you heard the women screeming and the group of people up there trying to pull them apart.
I was there and I saw everything....hahaha. So we are sitting there and the conducter is running through some classical music from some broadway shows (i think it was GiGi) anyway, We heard a scream randomly from the higher balcony, I thought someone tripped and fell or couldnt see in the dark. Probobly not a big deal, but then she screamed again "Hey Stop!!" and then everyone noticed. One guy got up from his seat and went around a couple chairs and then he started swinging.
I heard that a fight broke out in the balcony sometime during this concert. Did anybody get that on video?

BOSTON — Concert-goers, and even Boston Pops conductor Keith Lockhart, were caught off-guard when a fight broke out on opening night at usually sedate Symphony Hall.
Television video of the fight Wednesday night showed two men struggling in the balcony — one with his shirt pulled off — as several people stood around them.
About to see this live with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. Needless to say, I am extremely excited.

nothing is in his mouth, it's just bad sound quality. You can't get that great quality off a regular digital camera.
