Chad Taylor makes fun of Ed lyrics, New Facebook post Options

[i_live_life]

New Facebook post by Chad T:

"I just saw an old Ed lyric and had to laugh my ass off. "Does he run it deep enough for you?" Seriously? And this guy wants back in LIVE? I can hear it now..guys, here's one I wrote about water, "the dolphins make me cry" ...oh shit... That's Hootie!!"

What the hell? Ed makes shitty music and now Chad T acts like a giant douche. I just gave up on my favorite band.

Even though there is no doubt that Ed has done a lot of things wrong it will never justify this kind of behavior. If Ed wants to get back in the band, Chad T could politely tell him to go fuck off, but never post it on Facebook and at the same time mock his lyrics... They act like a bunch of teenagers.

Rather have emotions being shown, compared to acting like a robot.

[dancing queen]

there are ways to show emotions without being childish.

I can't even imagine how hard this is for them all. to have someone you love and trust just turn out to be the opposite of what you thought he was. I'm sure CT just constantly shakes his head wondering how the hell it ended up this way. that's how it would be for me, anyway.

BTW, was this post deleted? his latest on FB now is "ok, point taken" or something like that.

and I think ed is mute because his lawyer told him to be. and he's scared out of his mind. just a guess.

Let's be real, those are some stink awful lyrics.

Something must have gone down lately to inspire this and the other recent posts.

Disagree.

Also, it isn't that Ed has "done" a lot of things wrong. It is that Ed is still doing a lot of things wrong.

The wusses will be happy, CT took the post down.

Personally I like this stuff, these guys are entertainers and it is entertaining. *shrugs*

Wonder where they would all be now if they told Ed his writing turned to shit and try again?

Was wondering the same thing.

It may be that he is still doing a lot of things wrongs... I don't know anything about that.

And I'm not saying that Chad shouldn't be emotional about all this. That's very natural. His long blog entry about the end of Live and his side of the whole Ed controversy was a very good, emotional and enlightening read.

But simply bashing each other on the internet won't do anything else than cause more trouble and in the same post he tells the public that Ed tried to get back in the band but they didn't want him.

That's just a low blow.

Shoot the crank, get in the booth, and write some better lyrics or you'll get a beat down!

Nothing CT is saying on this topic is a low blow......the truth will render many Live fans speechless in the end. He's venting emotions built up for many many years. If you only knew the real Ed, I don't think many would ever go see his shows again. He's teetering on extinction with nothing to hang his hat on.

Stick around Mr Copenhagen. Perhaps you've been led to believe Ed was the end all be all with Live.

I know Chad Taylor's recent post only drove more fans away from the CCP side of things.

Am i the only one angry at Chad T? If he hates Ed's lyrics, why hasn't he fired Ed in 2002 instead of 2009?

Come on! We don't want useless FB posts, we just want music. Then we can finish this bullshit.

You don't understand the situation, being a new fan. It's simply part of the healing process for Chad. Like I said, many will be floored. Yes, in hindsight, they should have gone about the ontrol issue a different way back in 2002. Their only fault was not stopping Ed's control sooner.
