Did Ed mention MJ at the show last night?

Michael was a huge influence on Ed especially his Jackson 5 stuff, so did Ed mention the sad news last night?

My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

Also at the famous Fox Theater in Atlanta bootleg with the songs on the Dissident single, during Rats, Ed sang part of "Ben" and stated "Michael Jackson is innocent"

Nevermind.
I think he meant that since Ed is playing shows similar to the Chris Cornell acoustic show in Sweden, maybe Ed could play it too. He didn't mean that the CC acoustic is the only version, you condescending bastard.
Yeah my bad, gotta stop posting on this bored when its late.
ALLEGED!!

i also think a lot of you are being assholes. you don't have to be clever to make a michael jackson joke, but you could be decent and save it for a more appropriate time.

Michael Jackson touched people of all ages and crossed many boundaries (musically AND physically, of course).

Seriously though, maybe a bit uncalled for. Though funny.

THIS JUST IN.................MJ DIDNT DIE OF cardiac arrest,,,,,,,,,,,HE DIED OF FOOD POISONING........ he ate 12 year old nuggets
lock the post, lock the post
get outta my fuckin' face....
Let me remind you that MJ was acquitted for all seven accounts in the court of law by an independent jury. Let me also emphasise - not generally known - that a psychiatrist (who was in the first instance actually hired by the prosecutor) testified that MJ didn't show signs of pedophilia or could be profiled as such. But I guess you know better, because you have a degree in ... what? Know-it-all? Or is it the often I-can-make-uneducated-statements-cause-I-read-some-newspapers degree?
The reality is often a bit more complicated than that.
Don't get me wrong: I think MJ was troubled (there are even scientific articles out there that state that he may have suffered from Body Dysmorphic Disorder) and that he had severe identity issues. (Especially concerning his age.) But to immediately call him a pedophile tells me a) you know nothing about this (specific) sexual disorder and b) that you, like many others, believe the disinformation and often simplified world views of the popular press. And that's too bad. We're a fanbased oriented community for Christ's sake; of all people we should know how distorted the general media can be.
Now this is probably a bit of a too complicated response and the last thing I'm going to be part of is a silly debate of yes/no. Or "but he stated he slept with boys" arguments etc. (Which is btw a statement a pedophile will not make, for his purpose is sexual. A person who is confused re his age however will make this statement openly and naively.) A very talented man has passed away who has influenced the music industry, thousands of artists and crossed boundaries, artistically and geographically, that most artists can only dream off. He was a troubled genius, undoubtedly. A misunderstood man. And the least you can do is show some respect and get informed.
And yes I do have a degree.
Shit I really hope he doesn't play Billie Jean. I don't think it would ever happen anyway as Cornell's already done it and Ed wouldn't really want to copy that. I'd love it if he dug out Rats and included the 'Ben' bit

Degree or no degree...that was one of the best things I have read in a loooong time. And I may add, I couldnt agree more. :-)
