I was surprised Jack White did not come out to play with Eddie at all. I was really hoping Of the Earth would make an appearance.
Anyway, something must have happened to his guitar near the end of Porch because he started kicking it and looked like he might smash it, but then he just threw it up in the air and slung it around on the stage and then basically dragged it off with him.

EV wants a new band and wants to promote it to his fans and PJ fans, I get it. The Earthlings album is fine and the covers they choose to play are great. However, Pearl Jam is still an active band, they just played last week, and it is odd that Earthlings shows seem like a glorified cover band of Pearl Jam at times. EV could play complete shows of his material or The Earthlings without an issue, so why cover Pearl Jam songs while the band is actively touring?
Hunger Strike... it was good but, that song, that album, that whole thing is about Andrew Wood and Temple of the Dog. Stone, Jeff, Mike, Matt, Chris, Ed, etc. NOT The Earthlings. Andrew Watt sounded good and all but that band is not really worthy of just throwing that song in rotation. EV was in the process of telling a story about Taylor Hawkins and then cut it short to fit in Hunger Strike, it was odd. No dedication to Chris or Taylor or any discussion on why they played it.
I am sure people will not agree with this but I think some will.

I was up front and center. Ed was clearly irritated by the lighting situation. Earlier in the evening the lights directed on him were too bright, but during Porch when he he was looking for a spotlight to redirect off his guitar to shine on the audience, he couldn't locate one. This led to him unplugging the guitar and kicking, hitting, dragging, tossing it, etc. In minor frustration.
The Eathlings were decent but a little off at times. A few times Ed looked back at Chad to implore him to pickup the tempo when he was dragging a little. Hunger Strike was a surprise, however they missed the timing on the bridge/outro sections.
Billy Strings is a talented flat picker. For someone who doesn't appreciate bluegrass it gets repetitive once the "see how fast I can play" novelty wears off, which can happen on a 30 minute song with few lyrics.
I saw Jakob Dylan many years ago and it was billed as Jakob Dylan back when he was doing an outing with his own solo work. And there was this person next to me just wanting them to play One Headlight , and surprise they didn't play it. They played a song off Bringing Down The Horse (Three Marlenas) but not the Wallflowers biggest hit. And that was a conscious decision. Because it wasn't the Wallflowers, it was Jakob Dylan and Co.
Now at the end of the day it is ED Ved and the Earthlings , and he can call the shots & it's a fine line. And who knows maybe if other PJ band members get a cut of whichever songs they played that they wrote maybe it's all good.
I just posted about the Andrew Watt Hunger Strike issue. Let me know what you thing!
Not having Glen hurt with his solo stuff like Society, or Without You. He played no Into the Wild.
On the flip side, people would be so pissed if Wd played NO Pearl Jam songs…..
Andrew Watt rocked. Privileged to see him play with Ed.
more about who wrote the songs.
EDIT: Seeing Ed COVER Stopping Dragging my Heart Around with Stevie Nicks would have made my weekend.
