Ed on SNL 50

7777 · February 19

Fyi, EC was not banned, he has performed on the show several times since. He did the false start bit for at least one of those later performances. I'm sure it's on youtube.

Julia Roberts told us in Notting Hill that none of it is real. Or something to that effect.

That was The Matrix

Now I’m sidetracked trying to think… I know there’s some Julia Robert’s movie with a Pearl Jam reference

So apparently there's now a covid outbreak as a result of exposure at the SNL 50 show & after-party...

julieooliern · February 21

Oh noooooo!!! Hopefully Ed isn’t sick!! He had to save his voice! Or maybe it’s good if he gets it over with now so he doesn’t have to cancel
any shows? 🤷‍♀️

I was also thinking about some of the older folks who were there.

I’m pretty sure one of the hosts made a joke during the show about it being virus season and having all the talent in the world in the same room.

SNL50: The Homecoming Concert

Performing with The Roots at SNL50: The Homecoming Concert, Eddie covers Tom Petty’s “The Waiting”, pays homage to Elvis Costello with a few seconds of “Less Than Zero” then breaks into an epic version of “Corduroy” (More). Taking a moment during the set, Eddie speaks to the audience and at-homer watchers:

I was thinking about all the people that… that could be here… that we'd be missing… we will be missing tonight. Like, I'll just say one word… one name. And just think… imagine. If she were here. Gilda. Gilda Radner would be here. She would not miss… this… Phil Hartman. Tom Davis. The genius, Hal Willner. Michael O'Donoghue. Chris Farley. Norm Macdonald. John Belushi. He's in our hearts. In your hearts. So it feels like you could pull him down to be here… John, the gang is all here. - Eddie

On the red carpet a couple days later, Questlove reflected on the Feb. 14 performance with Eddie (More).

I was stocking Pearl Jam posters on the wall. - Questlove

I remember back in the day getting bootleg VHS tapes at the local record shop and saw the rehearsals for PJ on SNL in 1994. And they do the rehearsal for Eddie, Emilio and Sandler to cut a promo teaser commercial for the upcoming episode. And Ed walks away and everyone asked where he went and the stagehand or someone goes "oh he's shy. That's all." Glad to see Ed finally come out of his shell on SNL. LOL.
