Post All The Times Ed's Been a Dick

[Mecca]

Mosquito bites!

I was at this show. I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet. Here is the video, in case it hasn't been seen by some.

I'm pretty sure everyone on the 'Ed is a dick!' side of the Ricky Ramone conversation had the mosquito bites rant in mind.

I think the Ed is a dick stuff seems pretty overblown in the RR thread, and think this is pretty shitty.

so because a girl flashes at a concert that = "she isn't educated and doesn't vote" in Ed's mind? He's a dick. End of story.

Not that it's any excuse, but the girl appeared to be very underage and I think Eddie found that upsetting. She was flashing the band all night, trying to get their attention/distract them, and he finally had enough by this point in the show. Again, that's no excuse. He could have handled it a lot better. But it's kind of a "You want attention? You got it!" kind of situation.

So she can't vote then? Maybe Ed was right.

Eddie was already in a foul mood because of something that happened backstage that night. I think there was a hassle with some of the venue staff and security. Sleater-Kinney made comments during their set about it. I think the reason that show was as good as it was, is because there was a dark cloud over the whole thing so the band played with aggression. That's why there were ugly moments like the intro to "Last Exit" and the mosquito bites thing.

It still reveals something about Eddie and his attitude towards women as evidenced by the recent woman getting kicked out of the pit.

Seriously. If he's so pro-women then how come they've had like seventeen drummers and not a single one has been a woman, despite over half of the population of the world being women?

It reveals he likes getting pooped on.

Women are nothing but poop chutes to him

He abandoned his significant other on a cement floor to go take acid with a big man whom he had just met in a doorway. He obviously treats women like shit.

I don't follow your logic. All it says is that Eddie is disappointed in a young girl who is possibly underage flashing her tits when she should be doing something worthwhile. And then he threatens to shit on her head.

It doesn't mean she isn't educated or votes

[BurtReynolds]

but haven't we all threatened to shit on a woman's head one time or another?

So what? He's just saying that girls should be doing something more important with their time than flashing their tits. That doesn't seem very "anti-feminist" to me.

[Lament]

Give someone a microphone and put him in front of 17,000 people and at some point he's gonna end up threatening to shit on an underage girl. C'mon now, guys. Lay off...

Shouldn't Ed have been arrested if she was underaged?

A man telling a woman what she should or shouldn't be doing isn't anti-feminist?

I did say that he could have handled it better. I'm not making excuses for him. I'm just giving some background because I was there. This was not a typical PJ show. It was a very weird night all around, and it was a very small venue/crowd.

It's fantastic.

Oh, it was a very weird night all round? That's fine then!
