Obviously Ed does a cover. Does he hate his songs?

More importantly, what hat will he wear?

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I just am not vibing with the SNL concert at all. Nostalgia overload; a room of celebrities playing for a room full of celebrities; some poor choices on attendees and programming. It all feels very self congratulatory, which I suppose Lorne has earned; but I don’t find it very entertaining. Also everyone looks either old or plastic.
