Eddie -- We want a Nick Cave song in Melbourne!!

ZiggyStar

I would LOVE a Nick Cave cover in Melbourne....if only I would have remembered to ask Ed that when I met him on Wednesday (damn those lovely piercing eyes!! :x )

Ship Song would be great....but to be honest, I'm easy....I don't care which song.

So Kat, since I've been such a good girl lately, can you give Ed a quick call for me? Thanks. You're a champ.

I second that! Melbourne is Nicks hometown - so perfect place to do it!
Fingers crossed Eddie will pull out a few more aussie covers - can't wait
Bring on the Melbourne Shows!

ZiggyStar

Yeahhh!! I'd pee my pants if I heard this......

Exactly!

Yeah the best bet is for the ship song, he mentions nick every single time PJ
Play in Melbourne and for some reason mentions the cosmic physcos too! so if its going to happen it will be Melbourne!

If Ed plays Keep on Rockin in the free world I will have to get up outta my chair!
Won't be able to sit for that! I remember when PJ played it back in 94 loved it then
Love it still, the guy who reviewed Sydney described it perfectly - Ed sings it as if it was
His own - so true.

Dont Be Shy. You've Got to Hide Your Love Away. Man of the Hour, and Immortality. All in Melbourne and I'll be in heaven! Please Ed!

Did you get to ask Ed if he knew if Tassie was part of Australia??

No! A few hours later I thought "oops....there goes that plan!"

I grinned like an idiot and he shook my hand and I said "thank you" (for what....I'm not sure....everything I guess....it's really hard to think when he's looking at you haha) and then he stared right into my eyes a bit more and moved to my mate next to me.

If I meet him in Melbourne, I'm asking for a Nick Cave cover. Screw Tasmania. Too late now....no fixing the merch....but it's not too late for a cover request!

I'll just post the story I wrote on FB if that's okay....save me writing it again.

Okay okay....I’m home now and have a million questions waiting for me about EV the other night. After the gig about 8 of us went back to the pub where the fundraiser was held and had more drinks. At about 12.30am we walked up the street to go to another pub and we passed the front door of The Civic and Rob glanced in and Eddie was walking along the venue corridor to the door. I thought he was bullshitting so put my eye up to the frosted glass and fuck me dead – it really was Eddie – and he was walking towards us. A minute earlier or later and we would have missed him. Perfect timing.

So his bodyguard Pete comes out and says “Eddie is coming out and will shake your hands” or some crap and then Eddie walks out, shakes our hands, says hello or whatever to each person, giving each and every one of us our own little “moment” where he’s holding your hand and looking straight into your eyes. I said “thank you” and grinned like an idiot as he shook my hand....I was too mesmerised by his face to say much....and there really wasn't a lot of time anyway....and I was really pissed....haha....if you’ve met him you’d understand....when he looks at you he really LOOKS at you....and it's hard to think.

Ed proceeded to glance a perv at my boobs (so Lindy reckons – I didn’t see shit – but she wasn’t impressed that he perved at my “miniscule” boobs and not her bigger girls hahahaha....so funny) and then he got into his car and left....and I danced down the street very fucking happy!

And girls....yes, he’s fucking HOT in the flesh....seriously sexy....and really really lovely.

(the boob thing probably didn't happen....I didn't see it....but now it's just a running tour joke amongst us all)

Hey!! How are you? So good to meet you in Newy. Yes, Leigh met him as well and got a hand shake. Leigh was super stoked for me. Ed was shaking my hand and all I could hear in the background was Leigh saying "man this is so awesome for Susan....ohhhh man this is so great for Sus!" etc etc

E.K

I want to go to a Melbourne show now! :(

I'll let you know tomorrow. It would mean flying down to Melbourne on my own.. which means a drive up to Ballina, a flight to Sydney, then a changeover to Melbourne and then finding accommodation on Grand Prix weekend.

Yeah as much as I'm cool with whatever Ed decided to play, he's the expert at setlists after all I had hoped to hear Ship Song & Hurt. I thought I'd have a pretty good chance of Ship Song but no cigar unfortunately. He did a goddam Midnight Oil cover(bleuch!) as his Ausi token instead. Oh well. I've got a version of it on my ipod + saw so many amazing songs so all's not just good but fabulous!!

ZiggyStar

Woo hoo! Off to Melbourne in an hour.....

THE SHIP SONG....do iittt!!!

Bye xx

Ahhh the Ship Song. ...but if he ever plays Straight to You I might die of jealousy.

Melbourne is going to be 20 degrees and raining today. I wonder what Ed's been up to during his 4 day break?
