Actually in watching a video, he sounded pretty spent by the end of that one. Not the best vocal performance. I don't care if they're off. They're older. I just care if the spirit's there and the crowd is into it. Good set last night overall.
I hate to say I love you,
But oh goddamn I love you,
You know I do.
Sure, Ed's constant gushing over Mike and Matt every night, while basically ignoring the awesomeness of Jeff and Stone, has become really annoying... but Jeff doesn't need to get all pissy like a teenage drama queen.

I expected him to grab his YL bass. He then walked behind the kit towards Stone's side. I was expecting Smile or something. He then tore off his IEM. He was behind the curtain before the song even ended. Stone was off stage quickly too. Ed and Matt exited. Mike waved. No group bow. Very strange.
I hope he was ill or sad over the loss of Lou Reed. I hope it's something "human" and not band-chemistry related. It's a shame this is already a news item.

especially when we all realize Jeff and Stone are the best parts of this band these days. maybe instead of a sign campaign for them to play certain songs, we should do a sign campaign just saying that we want stone and jeff to write all the songs, let them know we love them

What song did ed introduce the band before? So we can see the moment jeffs soul was crushed.
When has the band ever played a version of RITFW that lasted less than 3 minutes. The whole band must've been on the same page to just cut the song short like that.

i didnt have the volume up while i watched it since im at work, but assumed it wasnt the whole song
Everyone was watching the dancing fan kick ass up there so they probably got jealous. Maybe that's what Jeff was pissed about, that Iowa shirt guy getting more love than him.
