I wouldn’t be too sure of 10000 cups (or dis Ed mention it in thr interview?)
They planned to play it live than decided not too. Who knows what the reason was (maybe it evolved in something else, maybe they didn’t like it anymore). And remember they had more than 5 songs written but only 5 will make the EP. But maybe we’ll indeed hear it on the EP.

I have a feeling Be a giver man is the ‘Instasong’, with CT coming up with the riff.
Waterfall is very likely a song that was gonna be on Eds third solo album (altough the boys gave it adifferent energy).

Kinda weird thing is that Ed stressed in different interviews how great Zak is (which I won’t deny), but it would be nice to give his brothers in LIVE a little more attention when talking about new music by the band. Also calling Zak ‘our other guitarist’ (not tour-guitarist) and ‘guitarist in my solo band’ (as a current thing) sound weird, but in a written interview you never know how they changed Eds words.

People on this board have been pretty objective regarding Zak. Some like him in the band, others do not. It hasnt even been close to overwhelmingly positive.

It's the Zak Loy band featuring Ed Kowalczyk. He writes, records, is featured in the performance, gets consistent praise and mentions from Ed, all of which is unlike Adam.

Doesn't matter if you like him or not, his presence along with the new drummer basically comprise Live's sound now.

And now many people who "won't deny" that he's "great." eye roll

I said I won’t deny Ed’s words or opinion. Who am I to judge Zak? I’m just oke with him being and playing with the band. Plus I said I didn’t like when he - or anyone - gets praised TOO much. So what’s the point?

I think it’s more like you just DON’T like the Zak-guy instead of this place becoming a fanboyzofzakloy.com. Two different things.
