1* The "A Working Day" a capella project--having the audiences at seven different concerts sing specific parts to his song "A Working Day" and then assembling it into one gigantic concert. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5qPQNDQXW0 Seen here in all its awesomeness.]]
2** Cooler still: one part features Home Free, the 2014 winners of ''Series/TheSingOff'' (a show Folds was a judge on).
3* During a performance in England, a chatty crowd kept breaking his concentration when he performed a ballad. When he calmly told the crowd that he would have to keep starting over if they didn't stop talking, they all immediately shut up and didn't utter a peep (even when he tempted them with a fake-out ending) until he finished. He later called the event "The Night I Made England My Bitch"
