Has to Philly

Paraphrasing - for now, or until Jesus Comes Back and gives us all Philly Boots
"David - good thing you got front row or you'd be fucked!
I know, not infront of mom. Look at Dad he's smiling...says it all the time"

and the outro on a Gorge CD

"be safe...no monkey business!!" I love that one




feel free to be totally rad and actually find these and reproduce them word for word.
What is your little fav. Ya know the kind that pops into your head at work and someone ask you what you are smiling about and you tell them... you wouldn't understand, you weren't there (meaning not just the show you attended but the expierence you had listening to the bootleg on your way to work in the first place)

"can't wait to see what the next song looks like...or sounds like rather"

    Personal favorite is from some bootleg that i have (dont remember where from) where Ed is talking to the crowd before singing "Its OK" and he says

    "Sing loud cause youre outside, sing loud cause youre still alive, just sing loud"

    There are so so many....

    "That song (Low Light) was written by Jeff Ament...He skateboarded from Montana in order to get here tonight........I swam..." right in to "Man of the hour". Gorge-95'

    Sometimes...its a fucking miserable morning, and ill drive to work and just blast something and it will turn my mood around...and your right....some people wouldnt understand that a song or an Eddie rant could do that to you.

    I loved his story that he told the crowd in Albany last June while being on his solo tour...: How he went out with Jack Nicholson and a girl approached Jack and asked him if he would like to dance. And Jack answered: "You picked the wrong verb, babe".

    Pittsburgh '06 is one of my favorites (paraphrasing): "you know, with all of the beautiful places in the world Pittsburgh is not one of our favorite places to visit..."

    (booing, steeler chants, throwing joints/lighters, etc on stage), then after 5 mins of crowd abuse:

    "...but it is one of our favorite places to play."
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    here's the full line 8-)

    "You know I forgot - before we did that AC/DC song I was gonna ask for someone's help. Not really a sing-a-long kind of help... but more like a.. uh, invite someone out of the audience - probably a gentleman because, you know, I'm in a relationship and all but... just to ....... to...... to squeeze my testicles at the appropriate time in order to hit the right notes. (crowd cheers) you know, someone who knew the song..." (ed laughs)

    it's good he specified that he'd get a dude to do it b/c jill was at the show that night!

    From a bootleg, New York I believe (paraphrased).

    "Every night we see the same fucking people in the front row. Shouldn't you be out getting laid or something?"

    oh no... you're right... I just checked it, sorry :?

    I remember Albany being great but I must have mixed that night up with a boot that I got from a friend :oops:

    Might have been wishful thinking. But I guess it doesn't really matter where and when. I loved that story!

    I still love that. Then he names a bunch of towns in CT and then they go head first into Elderly Woman.

    “You fucking cocksuckers. [shakes head] You fucking bitch! You know, we come up here as a collective band and we give and we give and you just fucking want more … and you know what? You deserve it. This is like some kind of organized religion here; I’ve never seen anything like it. Do you see what’s happening? … the third night in a row, right? [applause] Well, fuck you. We’re gonna play it!”

    Actually the last Sydney concert Ed had some goodies.

    Again Paraphrasing,

    Referring to his illness on the night 'I tried everything to get over this cold. My brother once told me if you drink your on piss it would work. I tried that, it didn't. It tasted exactly like cascade beer. (beer company here in Aust)..... Which is Pretty damn good, It's one of my favourites yeah? I think it's cause I drank too much of it the night before.'

    And referring to the heat

    'If you feel a young lady grabbing on to you, she might not be falling in love, she might just be falling. SO look after your neighbours'

    Seattle - late 2009

    (Paraphrasing)

    I really didn't want to come here tonight and talk about politics, but I just can't help myself. Our President, Obama, has some really tough work ahead of him and we just want to come out and say that we support President Obama. We too think Kanye West is a jackass!

    Paraphrasing and I think it was Berlin 09 he said something like -
    Take care of the women, men, that's our job, and then said he shouldn't say what he was going to say..followed by because when you get home, they'll take care of you...

    It makes me laugh each time I hear it.

    Soe the Shoeless!!!
    "Why don't you throw up a gun, so I can shoot you all?...I meant that with love, you know that."
    "Me and Jeff, are going to go to the front gate, and when you guys exit we're gonna beat the shit outta every barefoot person here!!!"

    State College bootleg where he asks for requests and as he picks up a piece of paper with the request, tells the crowd "If it says 'Fuck me Ed' I'm not going to do it." Then he reads it... "Thanks for the music, please fuck me.... well, I should at least see what he looks like first".

    Barrie '98 - Ed commented on the tail gate party at Molson park before the show. He said he saw "a guy with a couch and a fridge, and some guy wearing a fuckin' watermelon on his head - that guy is Canadian of the year. In Fact, I have to write a song called Watermellonman". Then they launched into Leatherman, Nothingman, Betterman.

    From Boise, Idaho, 2000 -
    Someone called Ben gets onstage and Eddie asks who he is. He replies "I'm Ben and I'm from Utah". Eddie replies "Uhhh, he's from Utah" and nods at security to get him off the stage.

    Vancouver. May 30,2003
    eddie: theres a joke we have down in seattle..and ahh... its goes something like ahh....have you ever noticed that canada is kinda like your grandmas attic..ahhh thats right..ahh....you never go there and when you do.. you say...what the fuck is all this shit
