pretty depressing how every thread turns into the same exact conversation for the past 3 years...can we try to keep things relevant to the threads for people who actual care about reading real info?

Not happening unless Ed changes his ways or the troll stop trolling.

The best solution is to remove the Ed section of these boards.

[OutToDry]

Nick, go off and have someone start a new ed board. then the cult can live in total bliss!!!

but those don't count. Ha

makes me want to go see the Chief and Eddie Vedder again soon.

We could do this all day.

he's too stupid to read what you posted (or quoted).

I guess that's why Live's had 7000 new likes to FB since the March 12 show. (Ed's got 1.5k since then)

Who might be more popular when the tour bus starts down the PA Turnpike?

Um, Facebook ads for you page give you more likes. I would bet that LIVE took out one since March. Either way, most fans still think Ed is on LIVE anyway, especially since their is no mention of Chris Shinn or a new singer on LIVE's FB info.

LIVE should be more popular just on name alone, not because of CCCP or what they do.

How many of the solo artists that you posted are still out there touring today? Brandon Flowers bombed on his own and is now back with the killers. The Oasis guys are fighting over everything, and Eddie Vedder is name enough that most know who he is.

The name value of LIVE still draws, just ask The Gracious Few.

all of these are photo shopped of course.

Oops, my mistake. Am I wrong about them taking a cheap FB ad to try to increase members?

I saw Brandon Flowers play HOB Atlantic City in 2010. He played decently, but complained on stage about place being near empty. After his US tour completed, he was done. When was the last Brandon Flowers solo show?!

Sold out?! It was an invite only show that never went on sale to the public. What critics outside of the York newspaper in their back pocket ever even mentioned the show or LIVE 2.0? Pretty funny.
