(Ed talks about a band called "Yeastie Girls" and recites part of one of their raps. He realizes his daughters are at the show tonight and regrets that he is going to have to explain the rap.

I totally agree about another level, I love pearl jam but didn't know what to expect from an Ed solo show but O...M...G!!
The whole show was just truly fantastic. I just got home and am still reeling from it all. Biggest hghlights for me was Masters of War (!!), the into the wild set, Ed's duet with Glenn on Falling Slowly and Ed and Daltrey doing Naked Eye. Also the moment when Ed and Glenn did sleepless nights at the front of the stage kind of like a couple of drunk men at a bar with just the uke and no microphones and both forgot the lyrics at the same time - twice! So funny.
Also, four encores!! FOUR! Seriously Eddie is just a god, and has the cutest kids too. It was nice to see them play a part in the show (and earn their living lol, to paraphrase eddie!)

Wow good for Ed! To get to play with his idol's like that; it's how I know I would feel if I ever got to play with Ed!
