    $100 per song played at any of the Pittsburgh or Atlanta shows. The subsequent songs are; Hard to Imagine,  No Way, All or None, Nothing as it Seems,  Comes then Goes,  Love Boat Captain,  Of the Girl, Wash and Present Tense. I hope this gets expensive.

    The only way this gets problematic, if you can call it that, is if the band acknowledges it and starts auctioning off songs played for large charitable donations and those songs suck.  If PJ says donate to EB research and some rich dude says “K but you gotta play Brain of J to open” and the band does?  100% fine with it.  If the rich dude is a douche and says “Play Sirens,” then we have an issue.

    now, meanwhile, if the band just sort of happens to do some of these songs at the requested shows and no one wink wink says shit and we all don’t fuck it up and just make our donations like promised (ahem @Eddie Vedder, if you’re reading this bud), then I think it’ll all be just fine with some sweet sets and some charity money flowing.

    So I say: LFG!!!!!

    I’d give $500 for “You Are”…. Not the most popular choice, but damn I love this song.
    I m fine with this just not at Pitt one.

    Went from putting kids on shoulders 10-15 years ago, then to writing sob stories on here once the kids got too heavy, now auctioning off song requests once the nest egg has grown.

    Don’t like the precedent that it would set but would seriously give 1k to hear Indifference at Pittsburgh.  The ones that always kill me are the sports stars that Ed knows who he asks for a song request and they pick something like Corduroy.  Its like dude they were probably going to play that anyway.

    As I noted in @mickeyrat 's request thread, I'll donate $1K to EBRF if "Comes Then Goes" is played at Pittsburgh night 2.
