Ed talks about Willie Nelson covering "Just Breathe" and what an honor it is. He jokes about now all he can do is hear the way Willie sings the song and how Ed wants to sing it that way. He then sings a line imitating Willie's vocal style. Ed says "He sings it better than me". The band then plays the song with Ed singing normally.

Ed mentions the other bands that played the festival and asks the crowd to say hello to Bruce Springsteen for them. He also says, "I don't know how this applies, something that Jeff said to me that bears repeating, 'give a man a gun and he'll rob a bank. Give a man a bank and he'll rob the world.' We gotta keep an eye on them. Justice for some of these people that are making a lot of other people suffer and they just don't care at all"
22. Blood
23. Alive
24. Yellow Ledbetter/Little Wing-Hendrix

    Looked good to me!! :D Hope those hardy souls who attended had a good time despite the weather and hope the band won a few new fans. It was just another PJ gig and I'm sure any of us would have loved it.... :D Festival is a happy word and I keep saying to those who post "Meh" that it's not actually a word! ;)

    After seeing Setting Forth on this set I hope I hear that in Berlin. Shame we didn't get it in Manchester as thats definitely a track I wanna hear live.

    Hope everyone had fun who went.

    Looks as though Just Breathe is now a set staple

    nice set for a festival indeed... worth the beatles cover on it's own and a great song choice also... one of the beatles first songs that wasn't a typical 'love me do' type. cant wait to hear it.
    I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

    Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

    I love you forever and forever :)

    Not a Beatles fan so don't particularly care about Rain (don't even know the song), but I'm very jealous about Last Exit and Setting Forth! That's great. Looks an excellent setlist, definitely not a Manchester beater, but amazing for a festival.

    p.s. Arms Aloft... sign... I appreciate the reasons for playing the song, but maybe 1 tours worth was enough??

    The setlist isn't as good as Reading Festival 2006.

    The crowd didn't look as good either - and the weather certainly wasn't!
