no comparison, at all Options

[+Ed+]

Making this thread in this cathegory as really it concerns the whole band, previously known as Live.

I hate and detest the way people try to compare Ed's solo and TGF.

Some scream: Ed is poppy wanking-ass faggot.

Other go: TGF shovel shit with pseudo-old-school hard.

How the fuck can you compare two absolutely DIFFERENT music pieces, one of which being polished and groomed modern post-grunge and another one - raw and solid grungy hard?

No comparison can be made. Absolutely NO. And I am more than glad that to me both new ventures sound absolutely nothing like Live. Well, maybe Zion to some extent. But anyhoo.

TGF will not be the good band to back-up Everlasting love.

Ed's voice will not be good enough for 13.

Leave them alone. Keep clashing aboard, but without comparison.



hhmmmzz, now what's the use in this thread?

I'm not sure if anyone is saying TGF is the led zepp of modern day, that is a MASSIVE call, but you can certainly say they were influenced by led zepp.

Um, according to some posters here, they are BETTER than Led Zepp ever was! In fact, they are going to be bigger than the Beatles and Jesus combined! Nothing will ever be as good as TGF! They're rawking, man!

I don't think anyone's going that far. Though this is the internet, land of unnecessary hyperbole.

Without the unnecessary hyperbole, think of how boring message boards would be?

I want everyone who was formally in the band live, who are going out and doing new things, to be successful and happy and produce the best music they can.

I get tired of fans of TGF acting like this new band, which they've barely even heard play yet, is the best thing ever. Let's hear the album first before we pledge our undying love to them!

I get tired of fans of Ed acting like Ed didn't have any role in whatever went wrong with the band because it seems pretty clear he did -- whether it was the wild claims that he stole money or maybe just the fact that Live had clearly become the "Ed Show" and I can understand why the other guys wouldn't get tired of that.

Yet I think Ed -- and it pains me to say this because he acts like such a pompous ass and is obviously VERY full of himself -- has come out of the split looking more mature.

How sad is THAT?

TGF has been busy sniping at Ed and his fans, and it's just a big waste of time and energy. Get out there and get busy rocking our worlds!

Ed has refused to discuss the break-up, which is probably because he can't defend what happened, but by NOT attacking TGF or his former bandmates, he actually seems like the better person.

Ultimately, TGF and Ed's solo act are going to produce two very different types of music. Just because you don't like one of those types doesn't make it bad.

Not naming names, but I find it VERY ironic when someone attacks Ed's fans who don't like the sound of TGF... And yet that person is ALWAYS harping on the fact that he or she doesn't like Ed's sound, so it must be "bad."

Um, hypocrite, much?

In the end, it was a good run, people change, and people move on.

I will be buying both albums and I hope they're both awesome in their own ways.

I understand that and am quite bemused by some talks of "this could be my favorite band" and such, but it's not wrong to be massively excited about the project, especially as more and more is revealed.

TGF haven't been going out of their way to snipe Ed fans, Ed fans have come to them to give them a piece of their mind, so they've responded. I doubt they are really putting any time and energy into it, I dont think they have a big white board up with Ed's face in the middle and a target drawn around it in a meeting room.
