    $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.
    • Present Tense opened Atl Night 2. We got $100 for EBRF!!!
    What almost sucked was the person I was taking to show was really late and had her lyft canceled three times. I got to my seat 2 minutes before it started.  If I would have missed it and still been on the hook for the c note.....

    Dodged that bullet! I scrambled into my first Fenway show right as the 1st song was starting. I had a clutch mishap on the GW Bridge - rough day. Next time I took the train.

    2012 Eddie solo show in Vegas. I'm sitting 3rd row center. Ed brings up the EB cause and a guy in the front row slaps a 20 on the stage. Pandemonium ensues as people rush to the stage to donate. Ed says I didn't mean to donate tonight but I'll take it. The whole time this lady 5 rows back from me is screaming Eddie! Eddie! Eddie. People were telling her to pipe down but then Ed looks over to her and she says she will donate 5K if he plays Black. Ed says that he hasn't rehearsed Black for his solo show and brushes her off and gets back to the set. Later after his intermission they wheel a piano out and Boom Gaspar and Ed are trying to hash out the beginning of Black but are struggling. We say fuck it and just start singing so Ed sits on the front of the stage and we all belt it out acapella style. There wasn't a dry eye in the place including Ed. 

    I still wonder if she cut the check for 5K. Haha!

    I like it when the band plays songs they want to play.  They aren’t a jukebox for you to put quarters for songs.

    jgoulet: $100 for a FULL “It’s Ok” at Pittsburgh I

    Oh yeah that was a FULL IT'S OK

     

    on2legs: Can I pay $100 to have Sirens not played?

     Was this a joke? Don't think it was played the whole tour. Worth $100 to cure a disease for sure.

    I'm sending the $100 I owe this week.  It would be nice if ticketmaster paid out the money they owe me.
