Would love to see them go the Yondr route for a few small shows and not release bootlegs. Give the band a chance to do whatever they want and make a few mistakes, let Ed get political, etc.
I'd be fine with an EV solo tour next year, even if a new PJ album came out.
I'd also be down if EV releases a duets album of covers before another PJ album releases.
I would trade any more multi-day shows at Wrigley for single appearances at Alpine Valley (and I live 10 minutes from Wrigleyville).0 -
Fuck Wrigley0

Covering a band is one thing. Covering a bands entire catalog that is active is just...I actually do not have the correct words for it.
Some band that has some silly name like EvenFlow was playing before the Philly 2003 Spectrum show. All I wanted to do was buy the fanclub member who got me his extra a beer. We were both slowly tortured, started laughing and just went into the spectrum to talk PJ instead waiting for Sparta to open up instead.His eminence has yet to show.

I actually found myself giddy while holding my iPhone up along with the crowd during Won’t Back Down. For years I refused to give up my BlackBerry but finally acknowledged if Ed is going to *really* notice me I need a proper device flashlight.To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

Another liberal use of the word "active."0 -

Thank you. I thought it was me.0 -
the band should stop releasing a holiday single on vinyl. its pretty much a joke at this point. its rarely anything worth getting excited about (or anything we have not already heard). it can't be all that cheap to have these made. seems like a waste of effort and at this point, the band just does it out of tradition. also, vinyl is a generally inconvenient format that really needs to die.0
