    Why a secret show?

    congrats to the troopers!

    now, since he's in town, here's to hoping Ed comes to the stage on Saturday with Springsteen.....................

    I mean why not play a full scale show? I'm sure there are thousands of Seattle fans that would have loved to see him.

    Some details,please! - so who backed Ed up? Just him and the guitar? How was it staged?

    I can't wait to hear about ALL of it, since my lame ass had already taken melatonin by the time Greg called. Fuck!

    I'm glad you guys went and can share your experience. :)

    Edit: Oh, and that Obama pin makes it even more certain that I will be wearing my Nader shirt in Vancouver. :cool:

    The venue is primarily an organ hall (with a `mighty werlitzer')- the stage is about a foot off the ground, and has an organ taking the left side of the stage, a small staging area for the guitar tech on the right (and the door to the alley on the stage- there is no backstage area). The venue had ~9 rows of chairs set up, with about 5 chairs on the the left and 5 on the right... And there was the 14 of us standing in the back. The chairs had about one empty seat in each row, so I'd guess there was no more than 98-100 or so people in attendance...

    Wow, I still can't believe I was there. I love this city. :)

    Several folks got banned for discussing this. Not sure why, it doesn't make any sense, so don't tell me anymore about it!
    I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me...GUARANTEED!

    lol ouch! Get em' Santos.

    On a side note, I hope Ed puts on more than a hour and a half show for his tour. Being that EV solo tickets were the same price as east coast PJ tickets.

    because it's cooler this way.

    I find it hard to believe that people were banned for merely 'discussing' this. I'm sure there were some people who were banned, who didn't get the hint to not post about it....and repeatedly posted about it after their threads were deleted.

    It was a small quiet neighborhood....I'm sure they didn't want 12 threads about it and have word spread around.....and end up having 3200 people standing outside a tiny community center.
