He spoke a bit in the Carrie one, but he didn't sound very comfortable or massively eloquent, so it seems like he prefers to let the others speak.jtr101 wrote:Has Matt spoken in these interviews...haha...

"Ed would play a song for us twice, and then we'd record it."
So the Tom Waits/Neil Young "don't learn the song too perfectly" approach produced this band's best results as well. But then, that period is also the one they now seem to be most critical of.
Mark threw the guys a lob ball with that second question, and they responded with a bunt.

Yeah he always seemed really shy to me. But then I watched a SG interview the other day in which he didn't. So I dunno.

i thought the drinking problem was a jokeMirella wrote:I like the deepness of Ed's talking voice. Two other notes: he mentions his drinking problem again. Should we be worried? And he said the word 'overwhelmed' and that made me think of this thread. And if he would use a computer more, I would guess he would love the multiple tabs in Firefox, just like the 'open' type writers.

I wonder how ed feels about those albums. If he likes em as they are or wishes he relinquished the control on some of the songs.
At least they didnt say binaural again

This is true. Certainly the editors I speak to are always saying this about poets, and the little editorial I've done would confirm their theory.stip wrote:McParadigm wrote:"Ed would play a song for us twice, and then we'd record it."

Some more speculation:
I think I have seen this multiple times when the band gets asked about the Ed as a bandleader topic that it is often Stone who answers. And then Stone says something like Ed is the super creative one who could work with anybody but still sticks to Pearl Jam. And while I think that Stone is honest about that I still get the impression that it is a very personal thing for him that probably did hurt him years ago. But in order not to really touch the topic he erases a potential discussion by directly stating that Ed is somehow above them.
