    What's that big ass ring about? He never wears it on a tour.
    Maybe it's new. Maybe someone just gave it to him. Maybe it's got some kind of special meaning right now. Who knows?  ;)
    Yeah mean this ring? :p




    Did EV sing at the game yesterday?

    As a European I have no idea still what that ring is about. Looks dumb as hell.

    How do we know that? We know it's a championship ring, but someone said he was wearing a massive ring on stage the other night, so I suppose the question is, did someone let him wear it around town, or did the Cubs give him an honorary one, and it is in fact his? ..... Obviously this is none of our business, hahaha, but that doesn't mean it's not going to be discussed. ;) (I personally just find the size of the ring funny.... maybe they should tone those things down a bit so that the people who win one can conceivably wear it regularly without looking like a douche :lol: ).
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    That's John Vincent's championship ring. He sings the anthem regularly for the Cubs. And, the ring he wore at the Waters show was nowhere near as huge as that championship ring.

    You can see that the ring says "Vincent" on it if you zoom in

    Can anyone zoom in and tell me what kind of sunglasses those are? They look like the pair I ran over with my lawnmower & have been on the hunt for the past 3 yrs

    I will be seeing Roger in St Paul, MN on Wednesday night. I know it is highly unlikely, but I would love to see this in MN! Kicking myself for not getting tickets to the Chicago shows!
    How was the show tonight? After watching this, I wish I would have gone.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Loved seeing the mutual admiration and respect these two greats have for each other. Roger must have hugged Ed like 5 times :smiley:
