Someone was throwing quarters at Ed during Go at the 9/16/98 Mansfield, MA show. Right at the end of the song he let loose with the longest string of explicatives I think I've ever heard!
"Listen asshole, one more fucker throws a fuckin’ quarter out here and we’re outta here, I’m tellin’ ya, FUCKER! What the fuck, you’re blowin’ it for fuckin’ everybody. Hit me with a fuckin’ quarter again and, fuck it, I’m outta here. We’re all outta here. Fuck you, and if anyone sees someone throw fuckin’ change right next to them, you have my permission to beat the fuckin’ holy shit outta them. Thank you very much. Fuckin’ idiot. Ah, that felt good, thank you."
If I knew where it was, I would take you there, but there's much more than this...
the whole mosquito-bite tits/ shitting on girls heads thing from hershey 03. my first pj concert and made even more memorable by that. get this boot if you don't have it:)
My personal favorite is from the State College bootleg where he asks for requests and as he picks up a piece of paper with the request, tells the crowd "If it says 'Fuck me Ed' I'm not going to do it." Then he reads it... "Thanks for the music, please fuck me.... well, I should at least see what he looks like first".

too funny
i wish he would speak more
great humour
i like what he said on the Echoes online interview, 2000
AskPearlJam: BPendergraft-guest says: Would you ever let a fan tag along with you guys for a tour to see what all goes on behind the scenes, you know like a Pearl Jam "homework" assignment? I would definitely be willing to travel with you guys!!! Just to hear all the sweet music.
Eddie: That's very nice of you to say. But there is no tagging along. You've got to have a job. Right now, they are all taken.
Eddie: By people who don't like our music.
Eddie: What a waste (just kidding)
okay the funniest thing hes ever sed wus wen sum1 thru a coin on the stage andf he sed "hey huevers throwing fukin coins on the stage better fukin stop now! if any1 sees people throwing coins or nefin then u hav my premission to beat the holy fukin shit outa them!"
I quite enjoyed Ed's rant/borderline obsession about the local beer in Halifax. For those of you who aren't familiar with the Maritime way of life, we like to party in the kitchen and people take their beer VERY seriously and Ed was walking a fine line by teasing so much...
"Heineken! Fuck that shit! Give us a Keith's!"
"We're the bosses! Give us a Keith's! We all want a Keith's"
"If it's the worst beer we've ever had you're in big fucking trouble! It's probably one of those beers where the 1st one tastes like shit but after that it's all wonderful. 'Dude! What period is it?' 'I don't fucking know!' It sounds like it's one of those beers that you can catch a puck in your teeth and not even feel it until the next day."
The kicker was not so much what he said, but what he did. After chugging back a Keith's, he proceeded to balance the can on his head for about 2/3 of a song. Classy!
What could have been disastrous ended up winning the crowds ultimate and undying respect (not that the die-hard fans didn't already love them...).
Toronto '05 - "I was looking at that Tower in the middle of your city....both of our cities (Seattle) have huge erections".....
Toronto '05 - "I'd like to thank U2 for opening for us." (U2 played the same venue the 4 nights prior to the show).
Barrie '98 - Ed commented on the tail gate party at Molson park before the show. He said he saw "a guy with a couch and a fridge, and some guy wearing a fuckin' watermelon on his head - that guy is Canadian of the year. In Fact, I have to write a song called Watermellonman". Then they launched into Leatherman, Nothingman, Betterman.
Toronto '00 - Have we been in this building before? Is it named after beer?......of it's named after an airplane......fuck it - lets take off.
My entry is from the Key Arena show on Sunday, 12/8/02....and this is all paraphrased from my memory...
Ed says in between songs how they were at home before the show and how Jeff got to watch the Sopranos. He asked the crowd if we wanted him to tell us how the show ended.....then he said, "DO you really want to know? Well, I can't hear you so I am just gonna tell ya......Meadow; do you all know who Meadow is? Meadow....fucks....Furio" And then they went right into the next song.
I think it's cool that my favorite band watches one of the greatest TV shows ever to be on TV.
Hello everyone, this is my very first post, so i'll try not to suck...my first pj concert was 6/25/03 in Detroit. Ed seemed to be feeling no pain when, just before starting Soon Forget, he was talking about his ukulele and stated, "i'm not biased because i'm talking to people in the back, but if you're a pot smoker and you don't own a ukulele, you're fu$#in' up!"
"Every time I see the Spice Girls, it makes me want to try to fly by climbing my roof and strapping bricks to my shoes."

Someone called Ben gets onstage and Eddie asks who he is. He replies "I'm Ben and I'm from Utah". Eddie replies "Uhhh, he's from Utah" and nods at security to get him off the stage.

This is slightly off thread but I remember seeing footage of a festival concert on mtv and some guy does a stage dive and totally misses the crowd. All you see is ed cracking up!!
"You know what!?...I've been fucked in the ass so many times...I've got shit coming out of my mouth...& i feel like kissing you. That's how i feel."
the majority would think this is funny...i just find it to be extremely real & true...but the majority rules...enjoy...
for the lights of the city.
only look good when i'm speeding.
i wanna leave it all behind me.
cause this time.
i'm gone...
in the far of distance.
as my tail lights fade.

but they will someday.
Sydney 2 2003.. The guys come out after 2nd encore...
"I was over on the side of the stage tonight when we.. before at soundcheck, and.. ah.. we were gonna work out a couple of songs, and I was sitting over there and.. ah.. a guy who works here comes over and he says 'Im sorry, I hate to have to do this but you cant smoke up here'... so... so I put it out in a very gentlemanly fashion.. and just knew that I was gonna smoke all night on stage"
Sydney 1 200... After 1st encore...
"Ok... were just gonna do one more cause we got two more shows in the next two nights.. (crowd boos)... Ah fuck those guys in the next two nights...(cheers).... Can I just talk for a second while I finish this smoke... This is the only place in the building you can smoke without getting a $500 fine.... Its hard to quit smoking when theres a Bush in office.. The Clinton years, I coulda stopped smoking during the Clinton years.. I didnt know how good it was... and we've been watching the news here and we think weve formed an opinion on whats happening in your country and with your leader? (Pauses for responce)... This is what we think and I dont know if youll agree.. but it seems to me that, like, hes giving george bush a blow job...(crowd roars)... but check it, hes giving george bush a blow job with your lips" - At the time Australia was about to send troops to Iraq for the 2nd Gulf War...
Hope you all see the humour in these quotes...

ED - we love the Dutch people - Interviewer - actually thats Holland
Jeff - weve been reading about Spain and stuff and we treat it like a bullfight out there

then they start miming and shit when the interviewer turns to translate for the camera
