    All Ben Harper Kills!!!!
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    I was introduced to Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals when they were one of the openers for PJ back in '95 at Spartan Stadium in San Jose, CA. What an incredible show that was!! I hadn't heard of BH before that show but from that moment I was fan and continue to be till this day.

    I wish BH an PJ would just finally decide to do another tour together as the jam possibilities would be endless!!

    Peace,

    The guy is simply incredible. His live shows (if he's not too messes up) are simple awesome!!!

    Exactly !!! I first saw him in '97 in a small venue and had a blast.
    I've seen him 3 times since then and it has always been amazing.

    morning yearning is a great song.......

    I've been a big Harper fan since 95 and I first heard a live show that was played on the radio
