     THIS IS NOT FOR YOU



    This. A man who soon forgets?
    A man who is no more beholden in his fifties to the views he held in his twenties than you or I. I look at things differently now than I did then. Why shouldn't Ed?

    Well said!

    They were always anti-corporate to a point!  Key phrase there.  Just like today.  And I applaud them for that.

    U guys are hilarious.

    "ok this is the last song. Sorry.  Our flight boards in 45 minutes and it's a lot of pedaling to get to LAX from here.  It's Southwest too and Stone has Boarding group C.  He's rushing us". 

    "And we have to drop our beer bottles and post-dinner food compost at the recycling center on the way to LAX so... no tag on this song and no Yellow Ledbetter, sorry!"

    PJFan, I'm calling shotgun on your private jet! 
    You sure you want to get on that jet??

    Eddies friend Johnny Depp about flying non-private (to his managers)

    'but, regarding the plane situation,., i don't have all that many options at the moment. a commercial flight with paparazzis in tow would be a f***ing nightmare of monumental proportions. forget the dillinger auction. don't need it.

    Maybe Eddie feels the same, but with the "have-my-baby-Eddie"-fans instead of paparazzis.

    Eddie probably hasn't flown commercial in a very long time (unless I somehow missed the 'Pictures where Eddie Looks Hot in Coach' thread). Let's give the man a break, shall we?

    The main problem is that he dares to play shows (and possibly have show-specific merch) that the average entitled fanboy does not have access to.

    If you ever have a chance to meet Ed, please bring this issue up with him if you have such a big problem with it. And make sure to let us know what he says.

    I'm pretty sure his response would (should?) consist of the letters GFY.

    I can honestly say that if I did get to meet him again and had more than a split second to talk, I might very well bring this up and ask him a couple of questions - respectfully of course.  Lawd knows I've asked far more "non-small-talk" questions of him before...  And NO, none of my questions ever involved him having a baby with me!  (Per a poster a few comments up)
