I found this video of White, Discussion on YouTube - I'd never seen it before and as far as I know it hasn't been posted here either....

This was the final song Live ever played....

Wow. Just Wow!

If that was the way they performed White Discussion, then it ought to be the last time. That was soulless. Zero interaction between the band. I mean serious, did you see that? Zero. Ed changing the vocal notes at the beginning, dancing around like a nerd and taking his shirt off. No energy, except for a little errant stomping. The band couldn't even stand to look at Ed.

Ed's quote when he talked int he middle of the song was prophesy. "You're the ones keeping it real, as everything goes down hill. As far as I can see. What happens next? Only the universe knows."

And so here we are. Still keeping it real. We're keeping the candle lit, my friends. Keepers of the the dimly flickering light - may it shine forever.

it was a very good performance in my opinion, don't get all the hate on it.

Really? I have seen White Discussion at the end of a Live concert more than a dozen times. All four performers lose themselves in the performance and melt together into a single alternative rock monster that melts the faces off the crowd.

When I watch that performance, they might as well have had walls between them. They never even looked at each other once. Ed started the song singing different notes, like the way Beyonce sings the star spangeld banner. He stopped to take a long drink in the middle of the song. Ed did the Sofia gyrate, jiggle and shimmy. But he didn't lose himself in it. He was just putting on a perfunctory performance. In my opinion, that was soulless.

Yet, with that said, it was light years ahead of that piece of shit performance Ed and the Wannabes just gave in Brazil. I'll give him this, he does seem to be more inspired these days. It's just mind boggling that he had to screw over his lifelong friends and ruin a great band like Live to get what he wanted. He continues to destroy the legacy of Live and if they aren't there yet, they will reach the point of no return. Unless CCP can pull something out of the hat, cherish the memories.
