Is that supposed to be a big surprise? Ed has been tailoring his music and image to older ladies for almost a decade. I believe this is the base cause to why his male fan base abandoned him (with the exception of Nick) and left Live for dead.

I was listening to Overcome this morning and it's unbelievable how much better that song could have been had he not butchered it with his over the top falsetto. He often tried too hard to sound "sexy" and thus lost half his fan base demographic.

Now that is just plain ridiculous dude. How the fuck do you AIM [tailor] music to just older ladies? This has to be the stupidest statement i have seen here yet. Wow.

Hit a little close to home, eh? You tailor music to just older ladies by making it soft, simple, melodic and with cheesy love lyrics. This reminds today's older woman of the sappy love songs of the 50s and 60s but with a modern, "cool" (to you) twist. Don't be offended, making it to half a century and posting on message boards with a white trash BITCH avatar is quite an accomplishment!

I am going to see Ed on Thursday in Chicago if everything works out as planned. Going up with four other Live/Ed fans. I don't think that even I fit into the "just older ladies" demographic and I know the four males driving up with me, ranging in age from 26 to 31 fit that demographic either. Maybe I should tell them we should skip the show since the audience will only be full of older ladies. I'll try to get an audience photo with the trusty cell phone and I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the crowd will be on the younger side as has been the case for most Live shows I've been to in the past.

I am also wondering from the takeover of the start of this thread as to why almost every, if not every, thread posted on Ed's behalf gets turned into a promote TGF and bash Ed thread? If fans of The Gracious Few have confidence in them becoming successful, as many of their supporters on this site seem to have, then why the need to consistently tear down Ed?

I can't prove whether or not most of Ed's followers fit that old lady demographic or whether Ed is purposefully tailoring his music or not doing so on their behalf. What I can say is that it gets very old seeing the consistent "let's rip Ed apart" posts in every thread. I haven't read all of the TGF threads, but I went through a few and I don't see Ed fans going over to bash TGF much.

I wish both Ed and TGF the best. Hope they all continue to have long, financially sound careers in music.

I went to the show in Philly tonight and there were more males than females. I think the primary age group was 25-35 years old. I can't believe this is an issue that's even being talked about. Unless you only care about your image, does it really matter if a fanbase is male or female, young or old? You either like the music or you don't. It's as simple as that
