There are a lot of good love songs in this setlist. Those people were lucky to hear them.
:thumbup:

Great set list!!!

I'd really love to hear one of these new songs...

ARC was the highlight for me at Ed's US solo tour...it blows you away!

tremors

Looks like another great set. New songs coming out at every show too!

Another great looking set(of course). It'll be great to see Arc in Canberra Newcastle of Sydney 1 or 2 but hopefully I've got a pretty good chance of that I guess.
C'mon you Aussies, wake up & give us fanviews!!
SEE PEOPLE IN CANBERRA TOMORROW!!!

He is playing Arc! Awesome. And another new song. I wish I could just get a peek, just a bit.
Great setlist, again.

Wow..that's 3 great nights for Brisbane. I went to the first 2 and am now wishing money stretched for the 3rd after seeing Arc on the setlist. What was Andrew stockdale like singing Society, he was in the crowd for the first gig. Thanks Ed for delivering some of the best shows Brisbane has ever seen

Cradles Broken Glass

I'm jealous of You're True, great show!

Princess KJ

Great show- probably tops Brisbane 2.

Tosser in my row shouting out unbelievable shit- Ed told him to move to the back or whisper!

I got a laugh from Ed! Everyone was yelling out requests, and I yelled "Do whatever you want Ed". He liked that!

Got us all to stand for Porch.

Stockdale came on for Society- not the best, I'm not convinced their voices work well together. But Ed gave him a great intro. Came back on stage again for Hard Sun, with the girls.

Mentioned the band will start recording again in a couple of months. Implied Australia shouldn't hold its breathe for either a PJ or solo tour.

Arghhhh don't say that Princess KJ. Now I'm kicking myself for not snapping up that spare.
And I had to go to bed at 9pm becasue all I could think about was that's when Eddie was on stage :(
Lucky bastards getting Arc though.

That's a cracking setlist. Seems like more variety and change ups than his past tours. Can't wait.

You probably don't want to know I also got a wave from him...

Tops night 2 KJ. Really???

Arc would have been great to hear. How was the new song?

Yeah- he seemed to rock harder last night. His voice was a lot stronger too. It was certainly my favourite versions of Porch and No Ceiling- and you know they're the ones I love.

New song- can't remember it to be honest. I liked the other two better.

That's awesome, glad you got another great show. Didn't think Stockdale's voice would suite Ed's. You got a great range of songs over the 3 nights. spewin I couldn't go last night, but am very happy with what I saw/heard on the first 2 nights.

Unbelievable.
Arc was, i'm not sure of the words to describe it, akin to a religious experience? running with that it was quite possibly the closest thing i will ever come to having a religious enlightening experience in my life, as the religious say, apparently moments of enlightenment like that change your life.(i'm not religious and i've just sat for 15 mins trying to find better words but i cant) At the start, the cheers started and ed put his hand up to hush people and started, he was almost trance like. It was breathtaking. I had to remind myself to breathe about 2 mins into it. If there wasn't fu*ken idiot bogans around yelling out you could have heard a pin drop. Most of them shut up for that though.
That was definitely the highlight for me, Porch was unreal, Ed told everyone to stand up and just went off.
Picture in a frame was beautiful, pretty sure every woman in that place and probably most of the men too thought that Ed was singing that song to them haha
the version of betterman he did was mind boggling, reinvented and just beautifully heartbreaking, again.

He buggered up Soon forget, absolute crack up, to a roaring applause because he did screw it. It really felt like he was just there, with his mates, chillin out doing his thing, having a laugh and a chat... so very intimate

Society with Andrew Stockdale was mediocre, i would have enjoyed it more if ed just did it by himself, like i saw before someone said their voices just don't mesh well and much apart from that stockdale looked like he didn't know what he was supposed to be doing. his voice irritates me at the best of times so i probably shouldn't comment too much on that as its a biased opinion.
Hard sun was another highlight for me, awweeeesomme way to end the show, one of my faves off into the wild and everyone was on their feet singing along and having just the best of times.

IF ANYONE KNOWS the dude **EDIT** his name was Kyle, who gave him live on 10 legs, $5 to send it back to him on the saturday night and asked him to take it back to get it signed by the boys, tell him that Ed specifically asked if he was in the theater and said theres no way he will be able to get it back to seattle and if he had of been there last night he was going to do something really special, but he wasn't. He said he would 'work something special out' for him

I am so completely awe struck by his humbleness and his love for his fans. Ed proves himself again and again to be one of the godly ones that make this world a better place to live in. After seeing that, i'm making the bold statement that it was the best live show i've been to, ever, and that's alot of shows.
In the car on the way home, i was so in awe that i was getting a little blearry eyed, my heart and soul were on the verge of explosion. if you get a chance.. go and see him by himself. it'll change your life.

E.K

Haha.. well done K. What was it like being close to the stage, you lucky thing.

Well I would understand if we don't get another EV solo show soon but I'm hoping for another PJ tour in the not too distant future.
