    I would say etiquette is an issue, though one a handful of asswipes always ignore. It's unbelievable to me the obnoxious and inconsiderate things people yell out. These people are in Ed's fan base? I guess some people are very casual fans. Unlike at a PJ show, you can hear pretty much everything in these small venues. We all know PJ listens to our requests frequently enough as posted in this forum (remember Black Red Yellow at MSG last year?) But Ed doesn't seem to appreciate it when people call out requests in the middle of the solo shows. (Especially when it's 'freebird'. Somebody really didn't find it embarrassing to yell that.)

    I think there's a thread somewhere else for stupidest stuff you've heard people yell at an EV concert. For me it was the drunk guy next to me yelling at the top of his voice "my girlfriend is Joey Ramone's cousin!".

    I would really like Ed to play Off He Goes. Has he played this solo yet?

    At least that's ridiculous enough to be a little bit funny. Much worse to me are the calls for Yellow Ledbetter, State of Love and Trust, Evenflow etc...

    I agree, although I think it would be fitting if Mike McCready came out for the second encore of Ed's last show in Seattle and did an acoustic rendition of Yellow Ledbetter.

    Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

    Make sure you go to the preparties at the Rock Bottom Brewery!!!

    That sure sounds a lot better than the ghetto bar near the Tower Theatre. :roll:

    The Philly pre party isn't at that Bar.

    Where will the Philly pre-party be?

    So I guess since I didn't get an answer last time...are the pre-parties at the Seattle or Bellevue Rock Bottom? And what time is everyone meeting?

    He played Off He Goes in Chicago, night 2. It was GREAT.

    This is a formal black tie event for me. Don't let me be the only one.

    This is FUNNY...
