Ben Folds Fake

I got to do a fun thing last night thanks to my friend Charlie Todd over at Improv Everywhere.

Me and Cody wait for Ben Folds show to begin

We got to do a stunt during the Ben Folds show at the Beacon Theater. Basically, Ben does this thing where he plays a 10 Hz note, which is rumored to make people shit their pants.

We posed as people who actually shit their pants, and were rushed to the stage for medical attention. It was fun, though a bit dark, so I’m not sure if people really saw much.

Ben was in on the whole thing, and he and the band were very nice.

As was the guy opening for them, Corn Mo, who is a great performer with a kickass hair-band-style voice.

Good times! Viva la Folds!
