It's like they were reading my mind and played a show that wiped away the slightly bad taste of the last two I had seen (PHL2 and Balt). Eddie gave props to my section after the Jeff chant me and the old dude next to me started that got so loud Jeff had to signal the crowd to tone it down. Eddie's voice sounded waaaay better than Baltimore, almost back to Brooklyn levels, so look out luck fans going to Charlotte you guys are in for a treat.

A real high note to end my tour on.

And I await the secretive Jeff story the OP hinted at but I will say this:

Spoiler: show

I thought he was too loud in the mix, the bass was so heavy it drowned out a lot of Mike and Stone's work.

That was the story Ed introduced Jeff, Ed and Stone both point at him, crowd starts chanting "Jeff". Ed shares his wine. It was a cool moment and almost made me wonder if they had read any headlines about Jeff "storming off stage". Crowd was spectacular, especially in our area (we were right next to broken iris). Loud as fuck! Here's a link of Ed falling. You may want to turn the sound off, it's really awful sound. I had a feeling Ed was going to fall, but I do think it was kind of a tumble on purpose.

(after the song is over Ed says “thanks a lot” and starts strumming his 12 string acoustic and singing the “a-ah, oh oh” outro. The audience joins in and they sing a couple of rounds of the outro. Not unlike the “Black” outro sing along)

lvc wrote:this has been the most heartbreaking thread to read. I had tickets and was going to road trip from Louisville with a friend, but he injured his back (slipping in the damn shower) and couldn't make the drive. Nobody else could go (I'm in the 'have kids and a job' age bracket so my social circle isn't quite in its 'seat-of-the-pants' phase anymore). So I missed it. Couldn't afford spending another $300 on gas and lodging all by myself.

The set looks great on paper (though I really like Yellow Moon and would have missed it). I'll just have to buy the bootleg and listen to it while holding my ticket and watching youtube clips of the performance. *edit - and crying quietly
