Was fun show last night..

I love the Nick Cave dedication! He and Roger Waters are at complete political odds and it shows that Ed can respect and support both. We need more of this!

Ed was bff’s with Johnny Ramone who was a hard line republican. I’m finding it harder to keep friends who suport trump because I tired of hearing about Hillary and Obama instead of answering the question.

Here is Ed's written setlist.

Scratched off songs:
Ghost (Wow)
Can't make out the second one (someone please help)
Deep
Can't make out fourth one (someone please help)
Yellow Ledbetter

Didn't get to watch much on streams (not that they weren't available, I was just busy), so thanks Sea for the fanviews as always! Looked like a fun festival show with some cool guests too! Also great to hear some Ramones.

Are they though? I think they just decided to approach one issue differently and that's okay.

I’m not sure this is the thread for this but I totally agree with you. It is absolutely ok. I guess the point I’m making is that people are making assumptions about PJ’s politics on this one issue based on the band’s appreciation for Roger Waters. This assumption shouldn’t be made...in either direction. The band can appreciate artists of different political stances based on their art alone. Comfortably Numb (which I love) shouldn’t be seen as a political endorsement. A shout out to Nick Cave shouldn’t be seen as a political endorsement. It is appreciation for good art...that is all.

Saw this post from Kelly Jones (Stereophonics singer) earlier:

Eraserhead

Good to see bands getting along, without all this rock-n-roll feuding bullshit from the 90s.

I never saw Brendan Canty, nor did Ed mention him.

Thanks, didn't really catch him on the video there, he was quite hidden, I was pretty far back at the show to be fair too. But that article says he was. 

Nick Namenone

yep.  no problem.  he seemed hidden away and it took about 4 videos to find one long enough to catch Ed.
