I don't think that's true.

Ed's always been a Bono-esque ham for stuff like this.

He's played Global Citizens before, both with the band & solo, the 9/11 broadcast, the Tibetan Freedom concert w/ Mike in '97...

Isn’t this like a fundraiser thing? Sounds like something he’d always be for.

Could’ve gone for more outro, but I suppose everyone has a time limit.

That sounded good but If figured if he played River Cross, he’d have to take some stuff out. Plus they have to get a bunch of performers in.

Yeah. He’s sounded a bit rough at times.

Stevie was fucking perfect, tho. He’s lost nothing in his voice.

He changed the lyrics, the rapture part. Made it more of a call to action than a calling out Christians. Beautiful performance.

I turned it off and missed Ed, I couldn't deal with the slow motion montages of health care workers with weepy synths.
