    Nothing says "reduce your carbon footprint" like flying private to an event celebrating private flying.

    First they buddy up with TM
    Then $40 t- shirts 
    Then $100 tickets
    Then Eddie does a corporate gig
    What's next? No mosh pit?

    Whatever happened to 1995 Eddie????





    Thought I'd get that all.out before anyone else

    You mean mature adult Ed.  
    Get over it.  
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    If you were invited to a private concert with Ed but he had to fly a private jet there. Would you decline in order to save the earth?

    and what if Ed's raising lots of $ from these corporate gigs for EB Research & other charities (and I have a strong suspicion that's what he might be doing)? You ok with it then? Bono has used a similar platform to raise billions for the One charity. Why wouldn't Ed do that same?

    This one is odd given their stance on the environment.   Not a big deal but just a surprising event sponsor to play for.

    Celebrities are constantly doing one thing while telling you to do another. No surprise here. Doesn’t bother me at all. I’m here for the music and concerts, not political or environmental advice.

    Your comment makes no sense.  I get you want to defend him as a fan, but......these are valid points, hard to defend.

    This may sound like a defense, but we don’t know all the details. If PJ buys carbon offsets for tour, it’s possible Ed does for his NetJets sub (assuming he’s has one - no way the dude can fly commercial). 

    I also imagine he parlays these corporate gigs into relationships that he may call upon later, like for EB, or whatever charity VItalogy foundation is involved with. 

    On its face, this seems out of touch, in reality it’s how the game is played.

    Great, now slap 4 of these songs on a fucking 45 and ship them out as the holiday singles. Problem solved.

    Guessing Ed does this to get a private jet subscription.

    Yeah, I think this is a valid criticism. Taking a private jet to perform at a private gig for a company that sells private jet ownership shares. Short of using a barrel of oil as a stool, it's hard to deviate further from an activist climate change urgency message.

    You know he probably flies a private jet to most gigs, so I guess I'm fine with attending if he takes  ajet to get there.

    I don’t give a fuck if Ed takes a private jet for a gig or if he serves cheeseburgers at a private listening party for Gigaton.

    Did you guys want him to walk there?  Maybe take a sailboat for the European tour?
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Transportation to the gig aside, is it off message for a climate change activist to perform a private show for a private jet company?

    This times a million.  Who really gives a shit about this? Especially not knowing what steps he takes to offset it?
