Who's Who?

Matt Schulz

In the spring of 2000 Ben started to get into going to live concerts on a regular basis and one of the artists the he really enjoyed experiencing live was Ben Harper. After seeing him and his band at Red Rocks in September of 2000 Ben ventured to benharper.net (or ".net" as it would later be known) to talk about Ben's music with other fans on the message board that was located there. It was here that Ben started to get to know of a video game and music loving guy by the name of "Showhe". A few years later showhe and his girlfriend, Shana (who Ben also knew through .net) moved to Denver right around the same time Ben moved to Denver to take his first "real job" after college.

Ben, Showhe and Shana spent many an evening hanging out and listening to music (and Mitch Hedberg), playing video games and enjoying evenings at the City Pub (where Showhe turned Ben onto the magic of the captain and coke). Ben and Showhe would also take trips around Colorado to see live music, most notably being hip-hop group the Digable Planets in Vail. They have also been known to enjoy the TV show Arrested Development together (but don't tell Shana!).

Finally, a word to the wise, hanging out with these two will lead to some rather sarcastic conversation. You've been warned!
