I always laughed and called BULLSHIT when people said he would only play Arc 9 times ever, etc, etc...
So, did he play it another 9 times? I have seen it 4 times now, I should probably make sure I see it 5 more times (AND NO MORE OR LESS THAN 5, right)?

Hehe, I hate all the stupid theories people make up to pass time!

    It's dedicated to the people who died at Rockslilde. Is that right?

    Simply seems a way of showing respect to the people who died, so I don't really see how it's bullshit.

    So far Ed played it 7 times on his solo tour (might have been 8), so there is specilation that it will be showing up 1 or 2 more times in '08 to bring it to 9 times in total again :)

    What he said...

    I don't think people dispute it being played more than 9 times ever...

    I think 9 times per tour/year is what people are talking about.

    On a side note to the OP... ease up man... don't be hasty... I think you're misunderstanding the "theory" as you put it.

    To add to this:
    The track itself consists of Ed's voice layered 9 times too. Which, is thought to be once for each victim aswell.
