Dont Say Anything to Ed On Stage

I got kicked out of Tulsa's show last night for saying "sir can I sing Hunger Strike with you." Ed looked and me and made some funny remarks. I laughed and would have sat back down and enjoyed the rest of the show if a security guard wouldn't have come flying down from the stage and shoved me out no questions asked.. literally. I was nice when I asked and was nice to the guard when he ejected me. People had been yelling things all night and Ed was interacting. I did nothing out of the ordinary from what was already taking place. Extremely upset 10Clubber here. On a brighter note... I got to talk to Eddie Vedder so I guess it was worth that! One has to have a pretty high confidence level to want to attempt that song with a legend. I sing it out all the time as a paid musician. I would have nailed Chris' part and have been at shows where he's let a fan come up and sing Ed's part. Guess I'll limit my fan requests to sing to Chris' shows. I was informed by the venue staff that "these were Eddies wishes". Crushed in my mind what I imagined Eddie to be like towards his fans and I hope thats not the case.

    Perhaps Ed took offense at someone thinking they could perform
    Chris' part. That could be construed as maybe smugness ...
    no offense intended because we know you perform professionally
    but it might have sounded so.

    I'm sure Ed has heard it all and we all feel sometimes
    that people can be incredibly disappointing.
    I know Ed is generous and kind, been patient and understanding too,
    he has run into some hecklers.

    I would never have the guts to ask him for a thing, he is my hero.
  • Ya I doubt he even knew I got ejected. Seemed more like a Barney Fife security decision to me.
  • There were way more drunk people saying stupid stuff that would have warranted getting kicked out. I can see if I would have tried to get up on stage or been rude but I asked a simple question and didnt respond with anything but a smile and a laugh at his jokes.
  • Did your brother stay for the rest of the show?
    And why do I have a feeling your brother gave you all kinds of shit on that drive back home...

    :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    My 1st line to you, had I been your brother?

    Dont worry, maybe next month Obama will let you give part of his inauguration speech!

  • Man PJ fans are about as nice as security guards. It was a simple question. His jokes and a no would have sufficed and no my bro was upset at how the event staff handled it. Hes in the music business and said it was uncalled for the way they treated me. Ed doesnt have to respond to people in the crowd. If he didnt that would stop the people saying stuff. When you open yourself to requests and comments dont be upset when you get them. I didnt break any rule or law set forth by the venue or Ed's demeanor warranting getting kicked out. Nor was I wanting to show him how to do it or show him up. Just wanted to share a moment. Would have been awesome.

    you are a good sport and I understand your dream ...

    I have seen others enjoy a moment on stage
    that is a dream come true for them.

    I'm sorry it was not for you.

    So you walked up to the stage and asked this, or did you do it from your chair?
    Bright eyed kid: "Wow Typo Man, you're the best!"
    Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"
  • Maybe Chris will let me sing this with him at his show. Least I know I wont get kicked out there for asking.
