    My mind was bent seeing Ed perform with another band.  It was like an alternate universe Pearl Jam.  Sounded good but looked weird.

    Hard to get into the first half of Corduroy but the second half was good. Top 3 song for me and it is not what I am used to obviously. I am a Patriot was fantastic.

    Nice little surprise. I thought for sure they were fading away after the speech with Global Citizen flashing in the background.

    That was sweet! Thank-you for giving hope seeing the crowds share happiness.

    I guess the TV performances were covers. I wonder why

    That was pretty terrific.  I don't believe he has played that version of Corduroy since his days with C-Average.  Also, threw in a couple appropriate Fugazi lines for good measure.

    Oooh right tv version...

    Anyhow, besides Josh, who was playing with Ed? What were the Fugazi lines?

  • The Corduroy take is similar to the one from Bridge School in '96.

    They are members of White Reaper, who were scheduled as openers on the Gigaton European tour.  
    I think the lines Eddie sang on Corduroy were "Give us the shot, give us the pill." which was lifted from the Fugazi lyrics "Give me the shot, give me the pill" from the song Give Me The Cure.
