Not sure if anyone has seen this... Struck me as an odd combo to be hanging out together... Just shows you how cool of a dude Eddie really is. He even taught David how to surf. David actually makes some pretty killer tunes himself, it would be interesting to see them collaborate.

    Guess this person is pretty sure of themselves :D

    there's a lot of people out there who believe they have the power to convert... I always think I can make people see the light politically
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    I haven't looked into Vedders personal beliefs or anything, but just from listening to statements he has made during concerts and such I have the feeling that he believes in a higher power or force in the universe.

    I remember him making reference to this saying "I don't know about this......." referring to a higher being. Think it was on the Showbox dvd. I think Eddie is probably agnostic meaning that he doesnt really know what to believe in. Interesting if this guy could introduce Eddie to Christ, very interesting! I guess stranger things could happen. There have been many atheists who previously didnt believe in a higher being only to be convinced that there is something there.....

    I would like to think Eddie is far too strong-minded to be brainwashed... here's hoping anyway.

    or maybe Ed convinced him to be atheist? Plenty of former believers have been convinced there is nothing there.

    I'll come back to read this as I am running out now...
    it looks like an uplifting article ... thank you! :D

    just wanted to say life is a long road, our life experiences teach us new ways to feel
    bring different new answers to questions of our youth

    My hope is Ed has found peace and happiness and my heart tells me he has! :D

    I dislike how attaching a religion to a person automatically makes one think that they are attempting to convert another. We know that EV is a decent and kind person. Isn't that enough reason why Crowder chose to hang out with him? Why does religion always have to be tied-in some how? How about that they simply enjoyed each other's company?

    Or maybe they were just two genuine dudes hanging out and surfing?

    Yeah really. Ed's not gonna get god. While he does seem to believe in some kind of spiritual power linking him to nature and that kind of thing, he's been clear that he thinks the idea of a Christian god doesn't make any sense to him. But he's also really accepting of other people's differences, and just digs other people who will surf with him and can carry on an interesting conversation.

    It's kinda funny he says they talked "solo shows". I worked one of David's earlier this year and it was very similar to an Ed solo show. Just him sitting on a stool playing an acoustic, telling rambling funny stories.
