Talk:Benjamin Burnley
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ben Burnley is amazing. I recently went to a concert with Breaking Ben, Nickelback, & Three Days Grace, & they were all awesome, but I liked Breaking Ben the best.

Ben discusses his phobias in two interviews: UGO Interview and WMMR Interview
More biographical information should be added, if available.
- Information, such as, what high school did Ben attend?
- How many brothers and sisters does he have?
- Has he ever been married and if so, for how long?
- Does he have any children?
- What nationality/ethnic background is his family?
- Ben appears to become ill on tours. Does he have a long-term medical condition, besides his phobias?
(I'd like to make a notice that the sound in the intro of the "Phobia" album the sound that was said to be a train sounds more like windshield wipers going to me. And also, you here a car door closing near the start. I don't have an account, nor do I know how to fix this so I just added that on here. Someone should look into that.)
The intro and outro of the "Phobia" album defintely has a door opening and closing. It does sound like windshield wipers. But then it comes to the train (though it could be a plane). I think these sounds represent Ben's fear of traveling.
I noticed that there is no citation for the trivia: "Ben once sang the National Anthem and threw out the first pitch at the first Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees game in April 2007 at PNC Field.". I have found proof for the National Anthem, though I cannot find anything saying that Ben threw out the first pitch.
And, I believe Ben was born in New Jersey... I found a video with Ben stating that he was born in Atlantic City, New Jersey. I may just be hearing wrong. Please check this before referencing it.
^^ you are correct, i just got back from a concert tonight in AC and he said himself he was born here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.90.13.87 (talk) 06:24, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Ben's alleged atheism
Please provide a source for this bit of trivia before re-adding it to the entry. Ben makes reference to God, including his announcement regarding his prolonged illness during the summer 2007 tour: "I’m working tirelessly to getting to the bottom of this so I can do what God put me on this earth to do."
