Another incomparable EV show. An eclectic set list. Some powerful moments with Glen Hansard and Jake Clemons. And bawdy humor from Ed, who had some fun with the women providing sign language when he called Glen a cocksucker just to see it signed. He couldn't break out of the cocksucker jokes and abandoned Long Nights because as he said, "I can't do a serious song after that. ... I won't fake it."

Great stuff.

Great looking setlist! Parting Ways and Yellow Ledbetter!

This is a show that I need to hear.

Parting Ways with the sax accompaniment was pretty cool. Ledbetter was abandoned halfway through when the guitarist sort of got off (or maybe Ed did). It became an a capella thing between Ed and the crowd. Which was cool too.

Apparently, the way this guy got to play guitar on the song ... he was playing outside Ed's hotel this afternoon. He just happened to be playing Yellow Ledbetter. I guess Ed got him to the show and gave him a chance to play it on stage. It was a cool moment, even if it didn't quite work out as planned.

All in all, a 2 1/2-hour show and worth every minute. I'll be back Sunday.

PS -- Apparently, the sign language for "cocksucker" is pretty much exactly what you'd envision it would be. Who knew?

The second paragraph....Makes me say this is why...

great set!!!woot

Looked like a great set list! Girl from the north country and Long Road! Hard to believe its been just over a week since the Vegas shows! I would love to hear a boot from this show! CHeers

It was a damn great show, it would be great if there was a rule against being drunk and yelling song titles all night. I like the way Ed put it, he's the chef...all we need to do is come in and enjoy the meal. Of course he said it more elequantly. Love the ending, arc was unforgettable, never get tiried of hearing Man of the hour. I hope everyone enjoydd it as much as my wife and i did.

Ahem, can't wait to hear Drive All Night, Parting Ways, Long Road, hell the entire show...ahem.

PJForceofNature

Praying for a bootleg release! I love the way Ed changes it up at every show -they are all so special!!

This was my first solo show and it was incredible! Parting Ways and Long Road were definitely the highlights for me but the entire show was amazing and i cant wait to do it again on Sunday. We met some fun people beside us and I was actually lucky enough to meet Eddie outside after the show!! Such a great night!

slightofjeff

"Girl from the North Country" was a request dedicated to someone in the audience, from someone who was not at the show.

Ed called it a "singing telegram."

And it was great. One of the highlights of the show for me.

Alfonz

When Ed started talking about meeting someone from Zimbabwe, this girl a few rows behind me jumped up and started carrying on. Then he asked for that person to come on stage. She was beside herself and started marching towards the stage ... then a security guard said "I'm sorry, he's looking for a guy" and she went back to her seat. It was hilarious, she heard the words "Zimbabwe" and "come up on stage", and selectively filtered everything else out and thought he was actually asking her to get on stage.

Even though Yellow Ledbetter didn't quite work out, Ed turned it into another great moment when he went a capella style and had the whole placing singing along with him. Not sure that has been done before.

wow! Another great looking setlist.

Y'all, I just have to vent here for a minute. I was sitting by the king douchebag of the world last night. He was drunk and whooping and shouting jibberish constantly in the middle of verses and just the entire time. In fact he was the one who prompted EV to stop and say the thing about this is like coming to a nice restaurant where you let the chef bring you a great meal. Right before that the douche was shouting "play something heavy" repeatedly. EV called him out and said something about the disembodied male voice that kept shouting. This was right around Just Breathe and Long Road. Anyway, on top of that, he kept leaving (crawling over me) in between every few songs to get more beer, and the ushers kept crawling over me to tell him to sit down and shut up. Finally, a large burly guy came up and talked to him for a minute and I think threatened him with violence. I was grateful because he started being quiet at that point, sometime during the first encore.

I wasn't planning to go Sunday night because of the cost and having to get a babysitter, etc. But my husband thinks I should just get a single ticket and go since this jerk tainted a night I've been waiting for now for almost a year.

Nevertheless, the highlights for me were Man of the Hour, Unthought Known, Long Road, Guaranteed, Society and Falling Slowly with Glen, and Yellow Ledbetter just to name a few.

I'm pretty sure that guy tried to request Off He Goes. If Ed had played that, it would have made the 90 minutes of douchey-ness that preceded it well worth it. To me at least. That's my favorite song.

That would have been the only thing that could remotely take some of the stink off of these drunk, disrespectful, clueleess (need I go on) people that can deter the flow of a good show. IMO if Ed likes a city, venue, crowd you are going to get a better show than not. Case and Point Las Vegas. With that said there were idiots in front at both Vegas Shows but we were able to keep them at bay for the most part.
