Live / Ed K Paradox, A visual interpretation Options

[OutToDry]

Hey, Ed's a pretty smart guy, so he thinks anyway. He seems like a very intelligent person to seek out the meaning of it all. So here's the rub.......Live is a paradox in terms of success, popularity, their deep brotherly bond which allowed their music to transcend the masses. The music in their early years, the collaboration of true brothers!!! Ah it was great. Maybe as the Thrill says....door's open, but the prodigal son must go through his life trials to see where he may have messed up. The New Live will approach us with much skepticism, but I think open minds will find what they're looking for. I wanted to take a glance over Live's history of popularity and success, and mix in the hidden variable which ultimately did in this brotherhood. I took to a little scientific research and figured it all out!!! I wish I had a sacrafont....but here goes.

Pokey spelled it out....you're either too stubborn or mental to u understand all projects are active and will be in play. You've.been told 10000 times of this but you have a block. Sucks to be you. CC&P have many things irons in the fire, business, philanthropic and band all at once. Touring is all Ed has, period!!! He chose his path, he chose control, he chose alienation......what have you got? NOTHING!!!!

This is an interesting discussion going on right now.  The way i see this board in general is that if you like Ed, you are just factually wrong for liking him.  And if you dont like everything connected to cc&p, you simply have no taste in music and human decency. 

Nick gets way too much attention from you guys.  Buttons pushed easily?  He seems to be good at that.  

I dont think anyone here cant see the fact that cc&p have a lot of irons in the fire.  What i dont understand is why thats looked at as something so grand ( general theme that i see in this board ).  Lots of people juggle multiple things and multiple projects in their lives.  

Has it occurred to to you that what Ed has right now may be what he wants to have?  Does that mean he is unhappy and alienated?  Maybe he's right where he wants to be?  He chose alienation from what?  People he doesn't care to be in a band with anymore?  People who cant let go of the past and appreciate what he has to offer today?  People who have grown in a different direction than he?  People who dont agree with or accept his spiritual feelings and beliefs of today?  He has obviously changed (in some ways) from the boy he was in  the early 1990's. 

Was there not some sort of split agreement years ago between band members?  Who is at fault for trying to stick around?  Dont give me that tired line of cc&p being somehow hollier-than-thou and sticking it out for the good of the band, the friendships, yadda yadda yadda.  Seems to me that Ed has wanted wanted to do his own thing for a while.  I guess he used the more talented musicians while he could?  Maybe he should have just left back then?  Where would that have put everything today? 

I think if more people could understand and appreciate who we all are as individuals, celebrate for people when they follow their calling or have success, and simply hope and pray for those who need it, we'd all be a lot better off.  That might be getting a little too far into the spiritual realm for some though.  

Another beer please.
