    I thought Eds helper band name was The April Fools. For the shows my guess is a couple of his friends.

    Ed played on his own during the warm-up show :)

    Because he's going out basically in support of Into the Wild, which is his "solo" record, which also includes a backing band.

    There's no backing band on Into the Wild. He plays all the instruments himself (with the exception of the guitar solo on "Society")

    But you're right, he couldn't play them live like that by himself. So he's either going to strip them down & do it solo, or not play some songs, or have a couple of friends help out. And I think it'll be the last option. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was Flea & Jack Irons.

    And they should call themselves The Veddermen. Or Eddie and the Iron Fleas. Or Eddie Pepper and the Chili Vedders. Or Chili Veddilli.

    what they were trying to say is that "solo" tour means "solo" tour.. it is a one time gig of "solo" shows... there is not going to be a back-up band.............EV will do songs from ITW, he will do some PJ songs, and covers.. he will have special guests at each city and the rest of PJ could show up at a few gigs... EV needs no back-up..............

    That's funny. Because Chris Cornell's "solo" tour had a band. So did Jerry Cantrell's.

    I think you guys are looking at the word "solo" a little too literally.

    He'll either have a "backing band" or "special guests" -- I think we're talking about the same thing, actually.
