Cool. I was bummed when Ed told the crowd that. As it says in the article... he still sounded good. There was really no reason for him to tip us off to his throat problems and I thought the rest of the band were thinking "YO... ED... SHUT UP. Its all good." After having had to leave the stage 15 years ago (My first PJ show) myself and others were looking for an all out make good on that show. They delivered but I was dissapointed that ed wasn't 100%. Not that he has control over it... I just wish he hadn't told me he wasn't. Sometimes you gotta just keep your cards closer to the vest yeah?

Great show regardless and I can't wait to see them on their own non festival show in portland in 2 weeks. Who's comin' with me?

it was somewhat obvious in places, but I was overall impressed with most of his performance, regardless of his vocal "struggles"

as a vocalist, myself, I would be happy to phase as well as he does when "struggling"
