EMEK does.

Thin air is completely stones song. and black Stone wrote the music to.

I dont think ed would be comfortable doing Stones songs without stone.

If stone toured solo would he be doing Soon forget and better man?

Black?
Also, why couldn't Hard Sun just have been Ed Acoustic?

Because he wanted it to be a thing to do with Liam Finn and his female singer. Between the three of them that's a guitar, a drum, and some vocals. Now, if the chick played an acoustic guitar and Ed could play the electric...there'd be no use for the backing tape

looks like you've uncovered him as the no-talent fake that he is. :cool:

I'm sorry but anyone thinks ed doesn't sing or play the electric parts of Hard Sun, as well as liam playing drums you are complete and udder morons. Of course he used a backing track for parts of the song, did you see a band there. It was clear as day at both vancouver shows what was played and what was a recording, pay attention pea brains.

PS lets refrain from mentioning any thing about that disgusting, prefabricated pop star on the forum please. geeeez

There is an easy way to tell if Ed did or did not play the song . . . if he flubbed it, it was live.

Just kidding folks. This has been an amusing read. Peace.

When I try to lip sync,
I turn on my recorder.
When I go to play a show,
I always, keep the same set list...
Once I wrote a solo album,
and had a solo tour,
10 shows and 40 songs,
but the setlists all the same!
There's a song,
A song I sing,
But I'm lip syncing,
for no good reason!

It sounds better when I sing it to the Tune of Hard Sun, but only redeyes is around for that shit... I guess PM me your phone number if you want to hear!

The reason the set list wasn't mixed up that much is for two reasons imo. These are guesses not fact.
1. These shows are going to be recorded for a double CD. He will take the best cuts from all the shows and release them on CD. No matter what show you went to the basic set list will be the same and it will be a great little souvenir.

2. With tickets being so hard to get and so few people going, I don't think there was as big of a need to mix up the set list. How many people here went to more than one show? How many people who are not on this board went to more then one show? I think we would find its a very small number.

Tickets were NOT hard to get! My friends needed tickets to LA 1, I found them both tix NO PROBLEM, one of which was a 4th row center ticket.
I didn't have tickets to LA 2, I ended up finding 2 and got redeyes in...
SD 1 I ended up with an extra seat, a good one, and I couldn't GIVE it away outside the venue.. I waited outside for a long time, even after Finn's set.
Tickets were there!

Do you think part of the reason for not mixing it up was to not please the douchebags yelling for "Vitalogy" and turning the whole night into a "shout your favorite PJ song that I can't play solo" type of night.

At the very least, you're overreacting like a spoiled child because Eddie didn't change his set list---like he fucking owes that to you.

It's ok that he didn't change his setlist, but I just wish I didn't see 3 shows... The first show was the best show of my life, then when he opened with walking the cow and around the bend the next two nights, I was yawning, kinda bored, waiting for the song to be over so I could hear what was next...
I like Pearl Jam shows a hell of a lot better...
and maybe if we didn't have to sit down, I wouldn't have been falling asleep, who knows...

What does this have to do with milking a cow exactly?

Just think of all the songs you heard live that 90% of the rest of the fans will never get to hear live. Into the Wild songs, Millworker, uke songs...

Then why go to three shows???? Did anyone really think Ed was going to play a two hour solo show and change the set every night?

This thread depresses me. COME ON: who really complains about seeing more than one show: SPOILED LITTLE BRATS. Unbelievable. And why would you go to a show and scream out songs that you want to hear as the artist is trying to perform: CLASSLESS SPOILED BRATS. He is supporting the ITW soundtrack, he is going to play songs from ITW. Everthing else is icing.

And to say that he is lip syncing is a fairly big accusation. If you don't have any proof, keep it to yourself. After all these years, why would you accuse the man of such a thing? Venting is one thing and your opinion is another but come on...

weak.

Fahka

did he really lip sync? I just can't imagine ed doin that? Ah who knows.. maybe there was a good reason behind it?

He don't be needin that shiz :(

I never understood lip syncing. If its that difficult to play live, don't play it!

pjtaper

I will say this, he played Man of the Hour all three nights, and I wish he would have played it 3 times at each show... WOW!!!! That was the highlight for me...
Man of the Hour each night were by far the best versions ever, and Throw Your Arms Around me with Liam were my favorite versions of those also... Porch was cool. Anything with Ben Harper is AMAZING and I was lucky enough to meet him after the show. Liam finn is awesome, I hope he tours, I would love to see a show or two of his!
Arc was crazy each time, gave me goosebumps, I'd love to somehow play all the different arcs at the same time, that would be grrrrrrrrrreat!
