Looks like Ed played a private show last night for Salesforce in Hawaii. I wonder what he played, any ideas?

    Is the stage on the right side of the picture and there are people looking at the giant monitor on the left side when they could walk 100 feet to the right and see the real thing?

    Kind of odd. Live in the now people.

    Knew I should have buttered up my Salesforce reps a little more!
    [i]Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?[/i]

    I'm guessing they're just not eddie vedder fans. I can think of plenty of popular musicians I'm not a fan of and I would probably be hanging in the back talking with coworkers instead of crowding the stage.

    Yep, that was a networking event for non-PJ/EV fans.

    Maybe Ed stuck that big fat wad of cash in his pocket and laughed his way to the bank. Maybe he played the show for free. Maybe he is donating his check to charity. Who the hell knows. Who the hell cares. But there's no real point in assuming things or jumping to conclusions with zero evidence.

    words seem so out of place.

    Agreed. I think it is a sellout move if he took the cash and ran with it, but we don't know the facts so no point making a big thing out of it.

    I only think people like Ed can sellout. If you are money happy from the beginning than you can't really sellout, but if you talk about being there only for the music for 10 years, and then flip your actions, that is when you become a sellout.

    I don't know. He's on the way back to the States from a solo tour in Aus so he stops there and plays another paying gig. He obviously doesn't need the cash so I'm guessing it's for someone he knows in the company or a cause they're supporting. Just my hunch.

    I don't see working for money as selling out.

    I bet he would be a totally different person than he was the four years before he died and wouldn't care in the slightest. Who knows though.

    Are you saying that for a decade he preached that he wasn't taking money for performing or writing music?

    I wonder if anyone would actually care? Ed does what he wants. This could be anything, a favour for a friend, a charity promise, a corporate payout? Ed's a big boy now and does what Ed chooses, not anyone else and I'm sure he won't worry if he thinks he might offend anyone who believes that they might still be more punk than he is in his 50's.

    I don't recall that he was playing private shows for corporations that he hated so much from 1990-2004. I'm not interested in debating if you aren't going to debate the topic (playing private shows for corporations when for years Ed did little to hide his hatred for corporations).

    We all know the band has changed over the years. My tickets said ticketmaster this fall. As I said I don't see working for money selling out, albeit he wouldn't have done that in '96.
