Oh man, that's awesome! It must be so weird riding with the cello on the side like that...so lopsided! I didn't realize he'd been to so many 'Roos already either, that's great.
This guy from Wisconsin, Peter Mulvey, does that with his guitar. He goes all over the state with it on his bicycle. He's a pretty sweet folk music guy - worth checking out.
Whe I lived in Berkeley there used to be this band ,called Fifteen, that rode their bikes to all the shows they played there pulling a trailer behind them. They never did a tour. Props to Ben for doing that.

Like the article says, Ben is a really nice guy and very talented. I saw him with Abigail Washburn and the Sparrow Quartet. I DL'd a few of his songs off of Daytrotter and will probably skip the YYY's to see his show, at least I think that's who I'm missing.

I read about Ben and his bike journey to 'Roo the other day and found it quite inspiring (because I'm a cyclist, myself). And then I listened to his music and was even more inspired. He really is amazing and I hate that he will be playing at the same time I'll be working this year. Thank goodness we have youtube so I can still enjoy his sounds.
