Team LV. Ed equating himself with the townsfolk is laughable.
just another page out of the Springsteen playbook

I was thinking it might be fun to see Ed solo someday but then I heard this and immediately wrote the idea off completely.

Ed solo can be a lot more enjoyable than a PJ show. Different things but still.

I don't mind the changed melody of Betterman. Sure, it doesn't work as well, but I like the idea of them experimenting with old ideas, especially one as universally known as Betterman. At this point, I'd rather get this version than the normal one that has the crowd singing 3/4's of it

That was great! They did something similar with Corduroy at the Bridge School shows in '96... How 'bout that shiny resonator Mike's playing. I got to play a similar one for sale in Idaho Springs over the weekend... Those things are heavy!

Returning in 2017. He's playing the Saturday after Labor Day.

I read Ed has an ownership stake in this festival. He may be here often.
