Dont Say Anything to Ed On Stage

EddieLedBetter

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.

you made the fan views thread ...
I'm sorry

after being tossed out of a comedy club cause my hubby was a bit too interactive
I know how this feels.

live and learn right?

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.

EddieLedBetter

Ya I doubt he even knew I got ejected. Seemed more like a Barney Fife security decision to me.

EddieLedBetter

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...



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!

IT'S CHRIS'S FAULT!!!!!!

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're damn right I did. I think it was worth a shot. Never know unless you try. BTW it was my bro's idea

JFK: And now EddieLedBetter would like to say a few words.

EddieLedBetter: Ich bin en Berliner!

JFK: Hey fucker! I was going to say that! Security, get him off the stage!

josevolution

I don't get the whole shout out at Ed shows , why do you feel compelled to yell out you actually thought that people who paid to hear Ed sing would be happy to hear you also

BinFrog

So you walked up to the stage and asked this, or did you do it from your chair?

EddieLedBetter

Maybe Chris will let me sing this with him at his show. Least I know I wont get kicked out there for asking.

Winston Churchill: And now a few words from EddieLedBeter

EddieLedBetter: Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

Winston Churchill: I should have thought of that!

F Me In The Brain

You are a very good singer, wish I could do that.
I hope you realize that you are asking for people to shit on you when you interrupt EV and then post what you have posted on here.
Good luck to you but I have to tell ya, I would have laughed if I saw this happen.

I wonder if you can hear the door hitting his ass. Depends on the acoustics I guess.

Frankly, it's shocking that people interrupt Ed at all at these concerts!!

I don't want to hear idiots shouting out whatever pops into their heads. I don't want to hear some tone-deaf dolt sitting next to me singing so loud that I can't hear Ed. I don't want drunk people getting obnoxious near me!!

I'm surprised at the bad manners people display at these solo shows. :twisted:

Maybe you should walk up to the dugout in the 3rd inning and ask Joe Girardi to play you at SS since its your dream. It isnt the Make A Wish foundation its a god damn rock concert. Sit down and try to come to terms with the fact that the world doesn't revolve around you.

And that's about the short and long of it, isn't it? I mean, I would love to rock out to a PJ show onstage, total dream! You know what, I'm going to go up to the roadies during the next tour and demand entrance to the stage. Then I'm going to throw a huge tantrum when they don't let me on. That's what I want and I have every right to it, right?!

Largest problem with American society currently, imo. Everyone does not deserve a trophy. The concept of respect got lost somewhere with the support for individuality. You are free to book your own show but why crash someone else's?

" Guess I'll limit my fan requests to sing to Chris' shows"

Wow, entitled much? Who gives a shit if you can sing well? Nobody's there to see you. Nobody paid to see you. Nobody *wants* to see you. This is three steps beyond the drunk asshole in the audience shouting out a song he wants to hear. Didn't read the entire thread but I'd be fascinated to know what led to you being onstage in the first place.

Creepy. That shit is creepy.

:nono:

Back in a flash - I'm off to sign some legislation with the President. Well, at the very least I'll grab his pen hand and ask really nicely. No telling if those commie Secret Service will let us have our transcendent moment of bonding. Some people consistently fail to realize that not only is this entire existence solely about MY experience, but I could add some seriously good penmanship to Obama's signature. I'll keep you posted.
