Title: Ben Folds & BSO Roll Call
Post by: TimCooke on November 10, 2005, 02:18:00 pm
I'm headed out to the show tonight.
 
 What do you think the dress code for the show at Strathmore is?  I was thinking Jeans and a sport Coat...but might make it a little more business casual.

I doubt that there is any "official" dress code for Strathmore, only culturally constructed codes, which would vary depending on the show. For BF, business anything would be overkill. Wear what ya want, even the sportcoat may be dressier than most. The orchestra is very unlikely to be tuxed, probably dressed in all black, however.

Yep, their website basically says they have no dress code because they have such varied acts, so I wouldn't worry too much.

i want to be there so badly but i was way too broke to afford this one between coldplay tickets and rufus tickets and paying $60 a couple of months ago to see ben and then other things...
 
 somebody call me if he plays Evaporated; he's been crankin' out a bit of the Whatever & Ever stuff lately.

I know sarcasm is sometimes hard to detect on an internet message board (especially this one), but he seems to play Brick nearly every night.  
 
 It's on his live album from a few years ago.
