Rufus is an amazingly talented musician and has provided songs on many soundtracks includeing Brokeback Mountain, Meet the Robinsons, and The History Boys. I am going to see him Wednesday eve at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, this will be my 5th concert of his. The best show was at Davies Symphony Hall with Ben Folds, the Palace has amazing acoustics as well so this should be an awesome concert. I pre-ordered his next CD "Releasing the Stars" and I will get to meet Rufus after the show and have him sign the liner notes insert, I'm so excited!!!
