If you believe Ed is being marketed incorrectly (or deceptively) on his tour dates, please discuss it here. There's no need to go over the same ground in each tour date thread. Any future discussion on this topic will be moved here...

Is Ed really 'moving on' when 80% of his setlist is Live material?
Should Ed be referred to as "formerly of Live" in concert promotion?
Is Ed using his connection to Live too much?
Is Ed or the record label responsible for the marketing?
Do you want to right this wrong by informing the venue, radio station or fans? Post details here.

So... looks like another EddieKLive show to discuss:

How to cash in on the past and not Move On

Surprise surprise, I'm not surprise at the ad promotion for this show. We have the blatant lie:

"Ed Kowalczyk is the voice and songwriting force behind the rock band Live."

You guys see where the problem is right? Lying and stating that Ed *IS* the voice still of Live. Another joke and another low for The Eddie K. Ed must have missed the news that he no longer IS the voice and songwriting force behind ANYTHING, especially Live. That task now falls on Chris' shoulders. The only thing The Eddie K *IS* the voice and songwriting force behind are those awesome songs on the EP (gag) and those fabulous remixes that make old Live fans cringe.

MEMO to The Eddie K LIVE: You're no longer in Live. You're no longer its lead singer or songwriter. Quit trying to cash in on the past when you were so eager to move on to a new chapter in your career. Hypocrite much Ed? How are the lawsuit going? Have you read any good books lately? How about the ones I dropped off for you in York on stage? STOP WITH YOUR LIES AND MISLEADING MARKETING.

Still amazes me that here's a guy who left the band but still has to have all ties to it as long as it can help him with financial gains. Even when he broke off to do solo shows it wasn't just "eddiek" nooooooo.. not at all. It had to be "eddieklive" Make no mistake about it, there's a reason for be "eddieklive" and not just "eddiek" and you're seeing it every time The Eddie K Live promotes one of his solo shows on this amazing solo career tour called "The Zion Tour"... oh wait, correction, the "I Alone" tour.. what's next? "The Lightning Crashes" Tour featuring Eddie K Live.
