Ed never stole from his bandmates, according to a source close to the band Options

[LiveForNow]

This is the truth. Best Live show I have been to since maybe the V tour.... Not a single disapointed face in the house that night.

You have the best username on here! I hope I'm not the only one who gets the reference.

Someone told me that on a Live FB group, CCP's long time business associate just said that it is FACT that Ed NEVER stole from his bandmates. Very nice to be able to finally put all that drama to rest.

I saw that. Which means it must be fact that he was also lying for years about how bad Ed was as he continued to trash him. But I don't buy it. This is Live trying to whitewash the past. Fingers in their ears "la la la nothing bad happened everything is good" sometimes it's easier to just ignore the truth than talk about it.
I mean you believe Bill now when the narrative suits what you want? He was a company man and a mouthpiece and all that when he was sprouting anti-Ed sentiments, even on this board. The only proof you really need about Ed is how ridiculously guilty he was in that Face Culture video.

Chad never accused ed of theft. Greed, infringement, breach of contract were the main $ accusations

Haha oh we are playing the "technically..." game now. There was the whole black coffee deal. But even if he didn't (he heavily implied it if nothing else), Bill certainly said so:

CCP wanted at least 2.6 million bucks even though Ed supposedly only owed 225 thousand, plus whatever little money from recordings sold on Ed's website. That and because they believed Levin and Ed were no longer acting in CCP's interest.

Seems like a huge stretch asking for that much money, 225k vs 2.6 mil. Also, Kind of petty to have Ed give up $ for those crap recordings that probably made barely any profit.

In response, Ed and Levin claimed that CCP were fully aware of every contract agreement involved with Ed, including the previous million dollar advance, and that CCP fully knew that they were not entitled to any of that advance, but that Ed gave them money anyway.

So based on all this, I have no idea whether Ed stole technically or by your definition of theft. Completely conflicting arguments and I don't trust CCP or Ed. Who knows what Bill is even privy to with regards to Live.
