ross usually has a bit banter with guests at the start of the show, but i think that'll be it.

actually the banter is usually quite funny, when he goes around the room where all the guests sit one by one and makes fun of them. should be funny to hear what he says.

he'll probably say he looks like a geek or something.

I'm just excited to see Bob Mortimer and Ben Folds in the same room. Two of my favourite geniuses.

This should be a really good show hopefully. I wonder if Lindsay will feel right at home on British TV. Wave to Mum!!!

did anyone encode the performance? i wanna see me some strings again.

(Hi Mr. Ben Folds, please call LifeOnaPlate, I know you been avoiding or something, but, um, you know, you did something, its different from our oral agreement, and, uh, ya know, I could do something with it because I have all the papers here signed and the letter too, so, uh, pleeease get back to me, and I- don't like whatever people do, and you know, differently from what we agreed, and that's not the right way for any business.)

AGHHHHHHHH! I can't believe my TV card couldn't get any sound. So the one thing I've been waiting for all week, I couldn't even watch and listen to. Man I'm pissed.

i thought there was something missing and there was the band guys didn't have any mics to do the harmony's. it was still decent, just not his best.

I missed the harmonies. Would have much prefered them to the strings. Still Ben on national TV though. Supply teacher's about right.

I suppose the strings is something a bit different for them to do. I just prefer the normal one.

it does sound like it's giving out. i don't know whether it's just from the cold illnesses he's been having, but it's definitely getting weaker.

i'd like to blame it on the fact that it was a one of peformance etc, but they probably did have a couple of runs through that. it was like he'd just written the song and never sung it before

its a shame that he gets on one of our biggest shows and puts on a poor performance. especially when he is one of the best live acts around.

but hey, all the music acts on there have been pretty poor recently, and the mic did sound too low.
