    It's appropriate that Eddie played Without You last night since the South has been without him or his band for a very long time! :|

    He's never brought his solo act to Texas. Get on it, Ed.

    (Sadly, when you add travel cost onto the price of concert tickets and such, it's out of a lot of people's means, including my own.)

    That's exactly the issue here. Travel costs exclude way too many eager, die-hard fans from seeing shows. We love Ed too and deserve a chance to see him.

    Yes, I think it'd be a lot more green for him to fly his one person down here. :mrgreen:

    Besides, it's beautiful and colorful here in the winter when it's cold and grey in Seattle. :geek:

    Isn't this Magnolia tree kind of pretty? ;)

    It's not just the winter it's cold and grey in seattle... it's all freaking year long!
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Eddie, please tour areas of the South that you have skipped!

    Ok, he played Memphis, Nashville, and Atlanta in 09 but there are so many regions with very populated cities that he has not played (Florida, Texas, Arizona). The cities he has played are so far from other major cities of the South. To me, the other play the South thread is for Pearl Jam shows...this one is for Eddie solo shows.

    Let's keep both threads on page 1! Whose with me? :D8-)

    Now I have 2 threads to bump? This is becoming a full time job. :D

    that being said two awesome venues for Eddie to play in Houston:

    Jones Hall (when I saw uncle neil there the acoustics were awesome, don't know why you would say it's not good for a rock show)

    JonesHall-Jan08-004a.jpg

    or Wortham Theater...

    Houston%20Fun--%20Houston%20Grand%20Opera.jpg
    Saw John Mellencamp there, and the acoustic stuff he did stood out better. Mix was a bit rough on the rock tunes. Saw that same Neil show there, and it was epic. Ed solo would be amazing here. the UKE and acoustic songs would work perfectly. PS: How do you post pics so they show up in the thread. I still don't know how to do this. :oops:

    The pic has to be online. Save a pic to photobucket.com (accounts are free if you don't have one). Once they are in photobucket, you can select a picture and it will give you an image code (IMG Code). Just copy the image code and paste it in your reply on here.

    You don't even need to do that... just right click on the picture and open the picture in it's own tab... the URL for the picture will be in the address bar. Copy the URL and put it into your post.... highlight it and click the Img button at the top, and Bam! Just remember it's got to be less than 600x600!
