    Don't forget the Sean Penn song! I believe it was before society. What a night. Great show.

    Anyone know where these were preformed in the set?

    Her Majesty was after No Ceiling.

    that sounds about right. he had just gotten into the Into The Wild stuff, and talked about how "some people" had said that the ITW songs were too short. Ed explained that "that's how long the scene was!" and how Sean Penn is NOT the guy you want to get angry, etc. then, "this is another short song..." and does Her Majesty. same pace as the song at the end of Abbey Road and lasts like 30 seconds. really cool and a spot-on rendition, especially for a huge Beatles fan like myself.

    i thought that all the Cat Stevens were especially fantastic tonight... the first part of the last verse of Sing Out he sounded almost exactly like the original song... he was really "doing" Cat Stevens for a few moments. fucking amazing.

    yes, his voice sounded so awesome and smooth in those CS songs...BTW, not to be rude or anything, but either you have the dates wrong on your signature or you know something we don't know about what's to come in July! : ) with love....

    I saw 3 shows, LA1, LA2, and San Deigo 1... I would not have went to SD1 if someone paid me to go... How can you people sit through shows where the setlists are all almost exactly the same?

    ok, I am awake...the show is still swimming around in my head. cant gather my thoughts as i am dead tired and now i have to shower, pack, and get on a flight back home.

    some thoughts from SD2:

    It was obvious that this being an added show, that most people there were not 10C members. We all know how to act and behave and not to do the "Eddie" chant. That was occurring a lot durring the encore breaks.

    Ed tried to address the shouting/interupting thing very early into the show, I believe after the 1st or 2nd song. He addressed it a few more times during the show and tried to use humor but he was very clear....that maybe the people around you sitting there dont want to hear you yell as they came to hear Ed etc and not you. He mentioned at one point very early that it is his microphone and he had earned the chance to be up there to use it so we could hear him, not the crowd shouting etc. He was very professional and humble with his requests for people not to scream etc.

    Right before No More, he started on an acoustic guitar, Believe You Me. I couldnt believe it (pun intended). I heard the 1st 2 notes and knew what it was right away, but I stayed quiet as if I was afraid to say anything, I might jinx it and he would stop playing it. It was amazing to hear it acoustically, even if it was only a few verses of the song. A Bad Radio song back in San Diego, how cool!

    The Barry White thing was very funny and clever. When he first started playing it, I was scared it would be a repeat of last night's rendition but it wasn't. It was Ed speaking as Lucifer, talking to GW Bush and it was hilarious. He had someone come out on stage in a GW mask and Ed was speaking to him as if Ed himself was the devil. At the end, with GW heading off the stage, he said "and send John McCain down" or something like that, which got a huge chuckle from the crowd.

    I am so lucky to get to go to these shows. My seats for last night were 3 rows from the back in the balcony and it was very compact in the row arrangements, but I was there and I am very blessed. Ed seems to be at a happy place right now and it showed the last 2 nights.

    A big thanks to those who held the 2 fundraisers and for all their time and efforts. It was great having a place to hang and drink/eat before the 2 shows. I met a lot of great PJ fans from across the country.

    No zippo lighters for those who asked me to get them. They went like hotcakes! Sorry!!

    Ok East coast, I am coming home...bye SD, thank you!!

    Did you not look any other setlists? You should have realized that the setlists have been nearly the same every night except a song or two. :confused:

    I can't believe you are bitching about this. You realize that it's not the norm to go to that many shows in a row correct? Perhaps you could have shown a little restraint and gone to only one..maybe two shows and thus allowed some other fans to acquire tickets to some of the shows that you were so bored with. Your post represents a lot of what I hate about this site and many of the fans of this band. You buy a shitload of tickets to a series of shows that have limited ticket availability and then you bitch because Eddie doesn't play a different set every night for you? Are you out of your mind? I'll bet you were one of the guys yelling out song requests during the shows.
