About an hour and ten minute drive to Montclair, NJ it was certainly worth the drive to see Ben and Jukebox play live. I love Ben Folds and all of his music, but i liked Jukebox the Ghost much more live. I hadn't hear them before the concert, but they really got their songs stuck in my head with their catchy piano riffs and eccentric beats just grabbed hold of me. The lead singer, also the piano player, was really entertaining to watch play live and was constantly joking around like crossing his legs while playing the keys.
Ben Folds played a lot of the stuff from his new album such as Effington, Dr Yang, Cologne, and You Don't Know Me, but he also played a few Ben Folds Five songs and of course Zak and Sara, Annie Waits, and Still Fighting It (actually sang by an a cappella group). He didn't play the Ascent of Stan which was a huge disappointment, but the music was great and Ben was really entertaining and funny. He got the crowd really singing, not jumping, but its not a jumping type concert really after all.

It was such a fantastic concert, hoping to go to the AC Gig this month as well.
