Good Grief!

Ok, a mini-summit. Well, really just two bloggers. Anyway, Scott over at Blankbaby beat me to the punch and recapped an evening at the Rufus Wainwright, Ben Folds, and Guster show.

A highlight of the night was Ben Folds performing Philosophy. As Ben Folds sang the first line, “won’t you look up at the skyline,” I turned towards the Philadelphia skyline and noticed for the first time that the lights are back on (they were off last month as part of a protest).

Guster’s performance of “Barrel of a Gun” as a huge cargo ship passed behind the stage was also pretty cool. The water, the silhouette of the ship against the Ben Franklin Bridge—perfect!

PS I really do like you, Rufus, but I can’t understand a word you say.
