Seems like it would be in everyone’s best interest to just cancel tomorrow now too ….I dunno 

This. By now it cannot be any good for Ed to sing tomorrow either...

There are a bunch of rules re: insurance which have as much to do with how this goes as what the band actually wants. Touring is expensive and complicated and it’s entirely possible they are required to get a diagnosis day of in order to pull the gig.

This makes sense.

This makes sense. 

This would make sense if you announced it the MORNING of the show, not at 5pm. This is ridiculous.

This is a fair point.

I don't know, guys. Grasping at straws trying to make sense of it all.

I know. Same do I. Waited all day to leave for Amsterdam (which is a 3h drive for me) after anxiously checking for updates every few minutes. Decided to trust on it after seeing the opening band put on Instagram the show was definitely on. Arrived here at 16h45. Checked in. Checked my mail. Ow bugger. All a bit weird.

Sucks. Sorry for everyone. I hope this situation is a bit of a wake up call for Ed. I know it was an extreme weather situation that put it over the top…but the cigarette over the years certainly didn’t help. Gave him a bad starting spot with his voice/throat.

I’m more upset that this happened because they played a shitty festival in bad conditions.

So apparently the white dude with the fire emojis & the 1000% prediction is from the opening band Shame?

My question isn't really if it's them, or if it's accurate, but IF that's the same band that Stone had to change Brad's name for back in '93? And then called the album "Shame" lol

Me too .I think  it is

True

I think this is the end of the two hour long shows. With his vocal issues we are probably down to 90 minute shows moving forward. Lol

I'm somehow both stunned but not surprised. Whatever damage was done to Ed is serious and getting scarier with each cancellation. 

Ev is kind of a perfectionist... My guess is that he could do a 75% show and that just isn't good enough for him 

I don’t know.  Ed’s voice isn’t strong at all these days even when healthy.  If he wouldn’t do long term damage to his throat and can let the crowd take care of the tough parts of songs he’d be a go.

His voice was “shot” by the No Code tour.  By “shot” I mean the power/range was gone.  He learned to sing differently and overcome it, but he could have used a vocal coach to help protect his vocal chords early.  The smoking hasn’t helped either.

Don't trust anyone that bad at Math

Shame on you!
