no slamming or anything...Ed has mentioned previously during these kind of acoustic shows that he likes the crowd to be respectful...

So please no phrases like:

"Go Cubbies", "Can I have a hug please" or "Save the West Memphis Three Eddie"...

    Also no...

    "Thumbing my way, Eddie!"

    Or...

    "Throw your arms around me!"

    Who said anything about being an acoustic show? I would imagine it would be a mix of songs. And the crowd certainly has the right to sing along and have a good time.

    I went to a chris cornell solo show last year but that didn't mean everytime had to be quiet and sit on their hands....would have been a pretty boring show if that had happened.

    The OP isn't saying that at all. Jesus. Of course there's going to be a singalong and the crowd having a good time. But, there's no need for idiots screaming the usual stuff you hear them scream. There's a line.

    EV is the master and I guarantee he will dictate the pace of the evening and the crowd's behavior. These are very small venues and he will be talking to us, a lot.. I do agree that it is kind of silly to assume this is going to be an acoustic show just because it is suppose to be a "solo" tour.. EV is not what one would call mellow.. This is not Ben Harper, this is "an animal"... Expect what you have for the last 17 years from EV!!

    Why don't you go to all the venues on the day of the show and leave little notes in everyone's seats, asking them to observe your Ed solo show rules.

    I'm sure they will oblige. ;)

    In this board every comment made always gets blown out of proportion...I think all I was trying to avoid is some situation where Ed gets pissed and walks off like the 5H case...

    Why do you all think they are prohibiting cameras, recorders, etc. because Ed wants to get as less distracted as possible...I think if he has a calm environment in which he is confortable with I think he will give some memorable and historic performances...

    So everyone just chill please...

    I went to a Jeff Tweedy solo show in Raleigh a year or two ago. They had bottles of wine for about 10 bucks and beer. Everyone there including myself got bombed. Being a solo show, it was just jeff and an acoustic guitar so it wasn't like a loud rock concert. You had to pay attention and all the drunk people couldnt do it. People kind of started talking to each other and what not. Jeff ended the show a few songs early as a result.

    I don't think Ed is that tempermental... I'm pretty sure he is used to it by now. And if he walks off... it's more of a poor outlook on him, than it would be on us.
    I've been to a couple of his previous solo shows... and people are usually courteous and considerate. But, if it's like Kokua and Hulabalooo... it's just not Ed on a chair with a guitar and mic... it is a show like any other show.

    If need be, can one poop in it as well? This thread should at least offer proper rules/guidelines regarding this important matter..
