Ben Kweller + Tim Fite @ Southpaw: Sha Sha
Complete with a commemorative songbook, a Sha Sha box (full of all sorts of random goodies including but not limited to red toothbrushes, Halls candy and Old Spice deodorant) and a slew of BK diehards, Ben performed a fantastic hour-long set. First, BK ran through Sha Sha in the order that the album was recorded and then came back for three fan-requested encores from later releases. Full setlist below. The night played out as a daft version of Storytellers and/or Behind The Music. Tonight Ben will perform his sophomore release, On My Way, in all its glory, while tomorrow's show will focus on his latest self-titled junior effort.
Setlist: Sha Sha/Wasted & Ready/Family Tree/Commerce, TX/In Other Words/Walk On Me/Make It Up/No Reason/Lizzy/Harriet's Got A Song/Falling//On My Way/Sundress/Penny On The Train Track
MP3: Ben Kweller - Sundress
Opening last night's show was the one and only, Tim Fite. Tim's live show is a unique amalgamation of experimentalism, audio/visual science project, hip-hop, anti-folk, spoken word and crowd participation. While many BK fans seemed reluctant at first to loosen up to Tim, by the middle of his mesmerizing set, nearly every fist was raised in approval.
