[Listen] 8in8 (Ben Folds, Amanda Palmer, Neil Gaiman, and Damian Kulash of OK GO) - 'Nighty Night' (Full Album Stream)
During an event that took place last Monday (4/25) at Berklee College of Music in Boston, Amanda Palmer, Neil Gaiman, Ben Folds, and Damian Kulash (OK GO) joined forces and attempted to write and record 8 songs in 8 hours, cleverly calling themselves 8in8. They managed to put together 6 songs, which you check out in the player below. If you find yourself enjoying the jams, head over to Amanda Palmer's Bandcamp page and grab the tracks for a whopping $1. All proceeds go to the Berklee City Music, which provides free music education to underserved teens.

Make sure you follow Ben Folds on Twitter to catch one of his impromptu interview sessions with fans and famous friends (I've seen both a fan and Bob Saget in chats/interviews, it's wild!).
[Watch] Ben Folds, Pomplamoose & Nick Hornby - "Things You Think"
Good morning, everyone! This video just hit the internetz and it's a great way to start your Monday!
YouTube sensations Pomplamoose teamed up with Ben Folds and author Nick Horby for "Things You Think". Horby's comments throughout the song are pretty amusing and the song overall is just as cute and catchy as it could be!
If you dig it, head over to iTunes and pick it up!
[Watch] Ben Folds Loves ChatRoulette
The ChatRoulette sensation is sweeping the nation!! I first caught the video of Merton the ChatRoulette Improv Pianist a week or so ago and hoped that the next time I attempted to meet strangers and dodge penis' that I would be serenaded by this guy.
That has now all changed, of course.
Ben Folds has decided to take "Merton's" idea of doing improvisational songs for ChatRoulette users and took it to the next level by doing the songs WHILE ON STAGE IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE.
I am just floored that the people he interacted with didn't know who he was. The whole video is pretty hysterical though.
I'm pretty sure I will be on ChatRoulette all night long for every night that Folds' is on tour now in hopes that he would sing a song for me. How awesome would that be, srsly?
