    That would be kinda redundant.
    ...
    The entire band should come out and to one pre-set song before the Eddie Solo gigs.
    That wouldn't be redundant.

    He's done a few "interesting" things to open a select few shows, but uh no -- this show is very much LIKE his presets as noted.

    He swung/climbed down a rope to take the stage in Santa Barbara.
    Some alt version of Eldery was used as intro music to the crowd's chorus of "I just want to say, Hello!" During first east tour. Forget the version, wanna say it was some african singer or tribal chorus chant version? It sounded really cool regardless....

    But I will just say, having seen three -- DON'T MISS LIAM! Ed obviously respects him and enjoys touring with him, and beyond that -- he just rocks!

    Yes... DO NOT MISS LIAM FINN!!! He is much more entertaining than getting shitfaced drunk in the parking lot and spilling the contents of your stomach on the girl in front of you, three songs into Ed's set.

    I particularly enjoyed the way he swept the floor in Vancouver, we were yelling out "Missed a spot, Ed!" but, no, we were only teasing him...He swept very well... :lol:

    He came out on stage in a mask and lab coat in Berkeley 1, sweeping the stage.
