I was giving V a spin last night and it really struck me how bad Ed is a sell-out and a hypocrite.

His new music SCREAMS from the top of the lungs of mainstream and pop yet in People Like You, he claims he is "pissing in the mainstream (of music)"

And people around here wonder why most Live fans "diehards" have jumped the Ed ship. I've gotta say that the ones who still support him and consume his music and coffee paraphernalia are definitely hypocrites themselves.

How do you feel about this?

To me, Ed is a hypocrit for a very simple reason. He has preached about love and god for a very long time now. Some of the intracacies may have changed, but his overall message has remained the same. Peace, love and everything that goes along with that.

Then he turns around to his lifelong friends and steals from them. I do not know all the details, but basic logic and common sense tells me that Ed has done much much more than this to his friends as well. Chad G and Pat D are not bad people. They do not strike me as spiteful, nor the type to mreact this way to anything other than something incredibly bad and detrimental to the relationship of these four guys.

Ed has gone against everything he has ever stood for in his message to all of us. He has consistently preached one thing, then turned around and done something that goes completely against all of that. For that reason, he is not only a hypocrit, but a disgusting human being in my book. I would not give him five dollars for food if he were dying of cancer and starving to death. I have zero respect for people like him. I have just as little respect for anybody who continues to support him. End of story.

I agree that his new music is crappy and that it wouldn't make sense to support his current act. But basic logic and common sense tells me to determine whether Ed definitely stole from his bandmates before I can accuse him of that. And you're saying he has preached one thing, and then turned around and done something that goes completely against all of that. Assuming that Ed isn't allowed to change his mind, can you point out the examples that would make Ed go from one of your favorite rock stars to someone not worthy of 5 dollars if he was suffering from cancer?
