Oh yeah. I've seen Ben every year on hour for about 4 years now (I think). I've seen him live about 8 times now. He's pretty much the only music act I've seen more than twice and his shows never ever disappoint. One of those shows where from beginning to end you can tell the band is loving life and playing live and are excited as school boys/girls that you are there to play with them.
Jack was a lucky find. He opened for Ben Harper in Berkely last year. I'd heard one song of his on the radio so I grabbed his 1st then 2nd CDs. The 2nd one is so well recorded and layered I keep hearing new stuff when I listen to it (or maybe that's just the new great speakers?).
