    How sick is Ed?

    He's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from a guy who knows a kid who's going with a girl who saw him pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I think it's serious.

    Jokes aside I hope he has a speedy recovery and the shows go off with a bang. I'm sure it's stressful for everyone involved.

    I am sure with the few days off now before the next show he will be all good.

    A three day incubation period points to Dublin, not airplane? 

    p.s. Get well soon!

  • It seemed to me that Ed was suffering with cold or flu type symptoms as opposed to the throat issues he has had before.
    Fingers crossed some Antibiotics and a couple of days rest will sort him out for London.
    It was still a great gig last night and Ed was really making a effort to interact with the crowd.

    It's definitely illness related.
    3 whole days rest is alot of recovery time

    Is he actually sick though? Loved the Manchester show last night, but I was thinking that maybe we’re not far from the end of live shows from the band. I was at the Amsterdam show in 2022, so sadly my last two shows, Ed wasn’t feeling his best. My thought is that it’s just Ed getting older and not being able to sing like he did 20 years ago, or even 10 years ago. And there’s nothing wrong with that, he’s had an awesome run. That being said, if they do carry on and there’s just more singing from the crowd (there was lots of that last night), then that’s just fine with me. The band can still deliver.

    I may be completely wrong here and he is just sick, and just bad luck it was my last two shows (even though it didn’t bother me in the slightest). I haven’t read any reviews or watched any videos from the US leg so no idea how he sounded for those shows?

    He sounded fantastic during the North American leg. He's definitely just sick.

    Let’s hope so, for the band’s sake and ours, he is starting to feel better by the weekend and for the rest of the Euro folks seeing them beyond that.

    A lot of anecdotes suggesting it has picked up a bit.  I just had for the first time after dodging it for 4 years.  Was probably considered a mild case but took me out for a couple days.  Definitely would have been tough to perform a rock show with it.

    Hopefully he isn’t ‘sick’ of Setting Sun. Gonna need that one to stay in the closing slot again.

    Yeah agreed. I haven’t been to many shows (5) but I’m yet to hear the band close with an original song!😂

    These are strange times lately. Feel like we just rotate issues between Ed’s voice, ticket prices/availability, the setlist being “boring” and shows not being long enough. Wish we could turn back the clock.

    Sounds like how these boards have been since I've been around...25 years now.

    Don't forget Eddie's hair!

    25 years ago we had all this plus Creed insecurities.
