    Here..thats the first thing I noticed!!!
    I had to send mine back to the company after 6 months but I'm sure Ed just has someone go out and buy a new one.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    From his blog: In May 2010 he joined The Who as special guest for the TCT Quadrophenia show at The Albert Hall, London, in September 2002 Pearl Jam played a double bill with us at the House of Blues, Chicago and in August 2009 I jumped up and played The Real Me with Pearl Jam at the Shepherds Bush Empire, London….. but we’ve have never had a chance to play any of my songs together which Ed has expressed an interest in doing over the years. There’s a strong chance this will happen when I perform at The Triple Door next Wednesday 23rd, amidst my US solo tour.

    Strong chance people, not definite. I would take it with a grain of salt and if Ed shows up, it will be an added bonus. I saw Simon recently (without Ed) and it was a great show.

    Hoping an audience recording from last night surfaces for "She asked me" and "I'm the Answer".

    Saw Simon last night at Hotel Utah in San Francisco.
    An absolutely ASTOUNDING show with less than a hundred of us there!
    Of course, that's all this vintage 1908 saloon will hold so I guess it was a sellout show, now that I think about it.
    Simon's a fantastic singer and guitarist and super cool guy - hung around afterward and met people and signed his new record.
    The new album called 'Denial' is incredibly good - nothing but gems.
    I understand that the vinyl version (180-200 gram virgin vinyl) is very limited.
    It comes in a really high quality gatefold cover and with a download card too.
    If you can't make it to one of his shows to buy it -or the CD version - you can get both at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/simontownshend.
    Don't know how long the vinyl will last at cdbaby.com - I suggest you jump if you want it.
