yep im in agreement. some people's ed-hating is a little unnecessarily violent to the point of being weird. so the guy likes coffee and the good book. no one gave a shit when he was meddling in eastern religions. I also think it would suck if his kids did come across such posts. That just aint cool

Very true people don't realise how loud a voice the internet is....his 2 girls could easily see this sort of garbage on the net.

He may be a bit over the top too happy and friendly these days but gee we're being a bit too harsh if we crusify him for that aren't we?

And yes he may have had his drug problems in the past like most grunge type 90's bands did but i've seen ed speak in public and play his acoustic gig recently and if someone can do what he does and be a druggy i'd be quite surprised.

Oh and u got to love the people who still bag him out for the albums he wrote since THDH (he wrote almost all of TDTH by the way) I don't think an artist writing what they feel and believe in is called deserting their fans. Just because these albums have not been as widely accepted doesn't make it Ed's fault. Not many bands can produce the success of throwing copper more than once or twice. Just because live couldn't make every album a hit doesn't make Ed evil like it would appear from this forum. No one can stay 20 and angry forever and I'm telling you now that if a band does not evolve and every album they produced has the same theme as throwing copper I would not have kepy buying. Lets just respect musicians/artists for who they are and not place expectations of one of the most successful albums ever on every other album they release. If you don't like it move on.

ps. what was this reference to 'lack of fresh material' by chad? Is he blaming the Ed for live's reducing popularity the last 10 yrs? Is he admitting he and the others did nothing the last 10 yrs and relied solely on Ed's creativity? If they are going to take credit for live's success they can't then say that all bad is Ed's or am I missing something here??!
