That's a pretty fucking cool poster.

He did?
I was at both ft. Lauderdale shows. Was it there?

Starts playing Guaranteed. But heads into Corduroy instead. Nailed it.

If I was there I would have loved it. No doubt.

but yea, not sure why he isn't doing that bridge school version. Would be killer. maybe the idiots would stop clapping and hollering like its a fucking football game or PJ show.

probably not. they would just clap slower.

as lame as sing alongs usually are, i kinda dug the audience singing the bridge. its sing alongs like that that turn me on.

That was awesome. I've never understood why Ed hasn't made Corduroy a more regular part of his solo shows - apparently it took the show last night to a whole other level. Hopefully the reaction it got will mean he'll do it more often now...

I'd also really like to hear him give Swallowed Whole or Lightning Bolt a go

Loving that poster too - is this the first coffee-themed PJ/EV poster?

I think that reaction is why he doesn't let it be a regular feature.
How do you expect 2000 people to settle down and listen, after that?
It's not a pj show. Hard enough time getting joe dumbass to not call out repeatedly for Jeremy and yellow Ledbetter.
Playing this is just asking for that shit in the neck.

Yeah - I imagine it being a more as a set closer 'get everyone on their feet' kind of deal, to swap out Porch every now and then.
He does probably get pretty sick of it after playing at nearly every PJ show...

he should close his solo shows w/ corduroy and never play hard sun again.

That show looks like it would've been great - no Amanda Palmer too, thankfully.

Still seriously puzzled as to why Ed skipped playing here.

He has been banging on about South Australian serial killers lately...

i went to the second melb show, pretty good. not as good as in 2011 but still a pretty good night. he totally butchered the cat power song though.

i'm really glad he didn't play bugs at my show. i would have been so pissed off.

I can't think of any song by Pearl Jam or Eddie that would piss me off at a concert.
