The first few times I saw Ben, he was opening for someone else, and I was one of the only people in the club who knew he was. Seeing people who know nothing about Ben Kweller watch him perform for the first time is hilarious. Especially when he opens with this song, and the whole crowd is abuzz with "huh? what the hell is this kid doing? ...vanilla ice?!" Heh. The fact that he covers Vanilla Ice with only an acoustic guitar makes him my hero. ;P
