    Getting pumped for the solo shows to start. Even though I'm not going, it's quite fun to read the sets as they happen.

    I'll drink some Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter before the Chicago Shows. Great Beer!
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    Wow, never heard of that beer. I'll have to get some.
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    I'm going to East Lansing today so if I get a chance I'll try and find the EF beer at one of the MSU party stores.
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    I could not find the EF beer yesterday so bought Corona instead. I think I'll locate sometime before the show.

    Nice that the solo shows have kicked off. It will help pass the time until August.

    These solo shows have been fun to read about. How about another solo tour in 2010 and a stop at the State Theatre in Kalamazoo, MI. That place would be perfect!!!
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    I'm thinking about which songs I have not heard live yet. If you could pick any song off of Ten, what would you choose to hear live at Chicago 1? I'd really like to catch Once or Release. I'll lean towards Release. I always thought it would be cool to hear as an opener live.

    I hope the Philly show tonight is great. This is the one I considered going to see. I'll be in Pittsburgh on Sat./Sun. and had I had a little more notice I may have thrown Philly in there for an Ed show. Here's to hope that we may get another EV tour in the future.

    I'll be out of town for a few days. So unless the hotel has a computer, keep the ship afloat!!!
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    Ok, I'm back... Let the ship set sail once again!!!

    BTW, while I was in Pittsburgh I met Billy Guerin and saw the Stanley Cup. Pretty sweet experience!!!

    All this rain makes me think we need an ark and not a ship.

    So if you could pick one song of off VS. for Chicago 1, what would it be?

    I'll take Leash. I've still yet to hear it live.
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    Another great round of solo shows! Everytime I read about them it get's me anxious for Chicago.

    The legend lives on...

    Don't Call Me Edmund~
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down

    Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee

    The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead

    When the skies of November turn gloomy.

    With a load of iron ore - 26,000 tons more

    Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty

    That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed

    When the gales of November came early

  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    The ship was the pride of the American side

    Coming back from some mill in Wisconson

    As the big freighters go it was bigger than most

    With a crew and the Captain well seasoned.

  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms

    When they left fully loaded for Cleveland

    And later that night when the ships bell rang

    Could it be the North Wind they'd been feeling.



    Don't Call Me Edmund~
  • ereeper1ereeper1 Posts: 233
    The wind in the wires made a tattletale sound

    And a wave broke over the railing

    And every man knew, as the Captain did, too,

    T'was the witch of November come stealing.

    The Legend lives on from the message pit down to

    The douchebag they call ereeper1

    His obession they say, well it is very gay

    As he keeps posting in this dumb thread.....


    This thread is the pride of this pathetic guy

    Sitting at his computer in Portland

    As lame posters go, he's lamer than most

    And I think his name's actually Edmund....
