    Not to be a pessimist, but I really don't think that's him. There would be a ton more pics and videos if it was. And some kid performing on the street just happens to know how to play corduroy or has ever even heard that song? Just saw Ed at Ohana fest and he joked how he won't go to the grocery store anymore because he hates being recognized. Don't see him doing something like this.

    Read the caption of Clinch's photo above. If they cover PJ then it isn't that strange he knew it.

    We really don't have 100% confirmation yet  but I do not think it would be much of a stretch that Eddie caught word or even saw the cover band earlier in the day playing some of his songs and thought that he would surprise them with a visit.

    It's definitely possible.  But if I had to bet, I wouldn't think it was him. I also think there would be a lot more footage of him, rather than a short grainy video. Seems like this guy would have kept filming.  Who knows though. Maybe they got the real ED.
