Ben Folds will encourage fans to send their song requests to the stage via paper airplanes in this solo concert. Be sure you don’t miss Ben Folds and his Paper Airplane Request Tour!
Ben Folds is calling for those paper airplane song requests once again, with the singer taking to the stage in Orlando when his Paper Airplane Request Tour comes to The Plaza Live on Friday, November 22. Support will come from Lindsey Kraft.
Attendees will have the chance to request songs via throwing a paper airplane at him during the show.
Ben Folds initially embarked on his first “Paper Airplane Request Tour” in 2017, where he’d randomly select fan-requested songs from paper airplanes and perform them solo.
His new US tour features the same concept, as he explains, “The last time I did this on tour the response was overwhelming, with literally hundreds of paper airplanes with song requests being launched on cue from fans at the start of the second half of each of my concerts. It’s the purest, most low-tech form of engagement that creates a special bond with my audiences.”
Tickets for the Orlando show are still available:
