A very long day. I had fun. I didn't dig Daughter, especially the attempted call. I was pleased with everything else.

I don't know, I'm thankful that Ed has more or less abandoned bonehead anti-capitalist ranting.
But sharing a stage and a night with some of the greediest people on the earth? For an event who's alleged purpose is to end poverty and inequality and blah blah blah... These people, and the politicians they buy, are THE cause of it all. I mean, dictionary hypocrisy going on here..

And my favorite band is now officially partner with them.

Were I in Seattle, I'd skip the pizza and go straight to the edibles. An hour later, I'd go to Molly Moon's.
I'm skipping the food & the edibles, and I'm just smoking that shit and drinking some good beer.

No joke I was actually hoping to hear Corduroy.
I thought Betterman was a highlight.

I thinkt hats an elementary viewpoint of it. Which i think is what Ed had years ago. I also dont think he rallied against all corporations, or that corporations were bad, it was the rich people that didnt give back that had ed riled up. That sort of sentiment can only be spoken of on a surface level from the stage.

And, ed has grown up. Thank god. we all should.

Lightning Bolt was the highlight. And I also thought Better Man was good. And I can't believe I'm saying this but, I really enjoyed Small Town.

Yeah, I don't think that's necessarily true.

It's like Ed's "just get all the powerful people in the world in one room..." ramble in the Italy DVD - uh, it's not that simple.

Lightning Bolt got me into it. To that point it was kinda, hey cool, I'm watching PJ live on my tv. I thought they hit a pretty good groove there and mostly rode it the rest of the way.

Bill Gates is heavily invested in Monsanto. Eddie grew up? Or said, fuck it, I'm old and rich and don't really care anymore?
