Ed said before playing Rats that it was dedicated to "some one that should have been there (at the O2)".... during the song he was doing some M. Jackson moves (I think)... am I right? Rats was dedicated to MJ ? ...

    Yeah, cause he played the openening riff to "Ben" before they kicked in with Rats.

    And because they closing lyrics to Rats are "Ben the two of us need look no more"

    Nice tribute to MJ

    Definitely sounds like an MJ reference.
