    We could have gotten this:

    :lol: That would have been awesome ;) (I wonder what song was requested that Eddie said "used to know it, not going to happen" to?).
    I remember on the bootleg there were a bunch of people chanting dirty Frank and ed replied "that's disgusting."
    :lol:

    Should have done the typical tag at the end of the song with jam session with Paul.

    The crowd up front was too tame. Letterman should get rid of seniority

    This shit was hilarious.

    I didn't see Ed spitting anywhere. And where the hell was his wine bottle???

    The "some band" who did Zevon was the amazing Jason Isbell and his wife Amanda Shires.

    Yeah that was it. Forgive me for not memorizing their names. His wife was good looking.

    Fuck yeah. Tom Waits Friday, Eddie Monday.
    Ten bucks says he plays "Letterman"... er, "Betterman."
    A cover with Paul and the band would be much cooler though.
    They did have a band on who played a Zevon cover a couple weeks ago. Maybe they'll do it again. Bet you Grohl shows up on Wednesday.

    So I won the pool, yeah? ;)
    I knew he wouldn't play Black. Had a feeling Betterman would be it, because of the "new and improved" meaning of the song as a dedication to someone who's liked ("This is for Jon Tester, cause you can't find a better man."). I really did expect him to switch at least one line to "Can't find a Letterman" just cause I thought it was something kinda cheesy that this-point-in-time-Eddie might do.
    I liked the keyboard intro, and how Paul switched to the organ sound after the first verse. Kind of bummed to see the breathy-H sound made its way back into Eddie's style as in "can't find a better ma-han" at the beginning. But, good song. The audience and Dave obviously loved it. I can't think of one other example where the entire crowd is on its feet at the BEGINNING of the song on Letterman ever. That says something about the vibe in the theater.

    You're so right!
    Eddie Vedder--not a feminist.
    Eddie Vedder--chauvinist pig.
    The dude hates women. HATES 'em.

    Hmmm.

    I like the Betterman/Letterman play on words. And the hugs at the end. Ed looked very dapper in his suit.

    You're right. He never supported Planned Parenthood or equal rights for women. PJ never played a concert for Voters For Choice. He wasn't schooled by Gloria Steinem.

    Pretty sure Eddie is about as feminist as a male can be.

    Did he actually SAY Letterman in place of Better Man? I'm going to have to watch it again. I just thought he glanced back at the desk on one of the last "can't find a Better Man"s... and tagged on a "We'll miss you Dave." I have to rewatch it.

    Oh, I dunno. Was just purely referencing the fact that he chose to sing Better Man that's all. I don't want to start any rumours! :)

    See page 2. I was way ahead of him on the play on words thing.
