Set List



01. Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
02. Can’t Keep
03. Sleeping By Myself
04. Without You

(Ed greets the audience. A man and a women shout that they love Eddie. Ed thinks the man sounds more drunk than the woman. A person in the audience makes an odd braying sound. Ed asks if you are allowed to bring in diseased Emu’s into the building. Ed talks about the meaning of the song “Soon Forget” and says it reminds him of a Porno For Pyros song called “Cursed Male”, which he plays a couple of bars from.)

05. Soon Forget
06. Around The Bend
07. You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away-(Lennon, McCartney) (instrumental intro only)
08. Driftin’
09. Wishlist
10. Better Man (Ed forgets the lyrics pretty early on. He laughs and says “This is a new song and I’ve never played it before.” He messes up again but eventually gets back on track. seems to be some new improvisational lyrics during the outro)
11. Millworker-(Taylor) (instrumental middle section jam no lyrics)
12. Far Behind
13. No Ceiling

(Ed introduces the next song by talking about Chris McCandless and his travels. Ed hopes that even if it hadn’t ended tragically that someone would have written a book about him. “this next song is about life, love, hope and the pursuit of happiness.”)

14. Guaranteed

(Ed says, “this is a mandolin..” and audience member screams “Lukin!”. Ed replies, “yeah, I am gonna play Lukin on a mandolin...he strums the chords for it a little bit then plays the main riff from “Iron Man” by Black Sabbath. Ed, “I will play anything you want if you just stop taking pictures. Save it for the end. I don’t want it distracting the rest of the audience.”
15. Rise
16. Long Nights w/ Glen Hansard

(Ed repeats an audience members shout of “my name is Jeremy.” Ed laughs and says, “I owe you an apology don’t I? in mocking tone “hey Jeremy, you speak in class today? Sorry man....” He goes on to talk about Ken Burn’s documentary on the Dust Bowl this leads to a series of digressions and stories including his part time job working at the club “Bacchanal” and getting to work a Ray Charles show. As Ray passes Ed he says, “That is a fine haircut son” referring to Ed’s mohawk. Ed is stunned and thinks “Ray Charles can see, all this time, he has been playing us.” Ed then sees Ray’s handlers laughing and realizes he has been set up. “It was an honor to get pranked by the great Ray Charles.”)

17. Immortality (dedicated to Ray Charles)

(Ed says this next one is a sing along and starts to strum the chords for “Slow Lukin” an audience member says he wants to come up and sing Hunger Strike. Ed says, “oh, you are gonna sing Chris’s part? I like it when audience members tell jokes.” While Ed has been talking he continued strumming the “Slow” version of Lukin after a few more strums he plays the regular version)

18. Lukin
19. Porch

Encore Break 1

20. Just Breathe
21. Pump Organ (same version as previously. Lyrics rather than wordless singing)


(Ed wonders what to play next. He says, “I just got an interesting request...I have never played this by myself before, when I get to the chorus I may have to stop for a bit...”)

22. Education (on acoustic guitar. plays it pretty well. Little hesitations on the bridge section)

(Ed describes the next song as being sort of like Better Man but from the man’s perspective. “Maybe every terrible, awful, tragic story has two sides.”)

23. Fourth Of July-(Dave Alvin)
24. Society w/ Glen Hansard-(Hannan)
25. Sleepless Nights w/ Glen-(Bryant, Bryant) [busking no mics or PA)
26. Can’t Help Falling In Love w/ Glen-(Creatore, Peretti, Weiss) {Dedicated to newlywed Eric and his wife}

(Ed talks about the owner of Papa’ John’s not wanting to give his employees health care. Despite posting huge profits he claims that health care will cost him too much. A belligerent audience member shouts at Ed to stop talking about politics and just sing his songs. Ed tells the guy to put his leash back on and settle down. Maybe smoke some pot, which is legal in Seattle. Ed, “I can’t wait to get back home.”
Ed says the next song is beautiful and that there is someone special in the audience he wants to play it for. “This is for Michelle, Thanks for letting us take Jesse out with us. We need him. This is a beautiful song and I can say that because I didn’t write it”)

28. Falling Slowly w/ Glen-(Hansard, Irgloá)-Dedicated to Michelle
29. Loud Uke-(generally the same as previous versions)

Ich ziehe demnächst in die Staaten, weil es dort wenigstens anständige Tourposter gibt
Die Setlist finde ich wirklich interessant, da sind einige Überraschungen dabei ... da fällt mir wieder ein, wie klasse es wäre, wenn es die Konzerte auch als Bootlegs gäbe

[CrownOfThorns]

Ja, die Europa-Poster waren mir auch zu düster...

Die US-Poster von Eddie sind kein Deut besser als die EU-Poster. Das Munk One von London ist mind. genauso schön als der Sternenhimmel.
Die Postkartenposter für Europe sind absolute Sahne und um ein Vielfaches besser, weil detaillierter. Die "US-Postkartenmotive" sind grobkörnig und sehen "billig" aus.

Die Setlist finde ich wirklich interessant, da sind einige Überraschungen dabei ... da fällt mir wieder ein, wie klasse es wäre, wenn es die Konzerte auch als Bootlegs gäbe

Ja, es wäre schön, wenn man eins kaufen könnte.
Aber mal ehrlich....
2 Std. Gitarren-Ukulelen-Mandoline-Gezerre mit ein paar Anekdoten rocken auch nicht richtig. 
Ich schlaf' bei den Eddie-Boots meistens ein. 
Selbst das Radiokonzert ist ein "wenig träge"...

[tetzman]

Das einzig anständige Poster hatten wir in Manchester, London war auch noch "ok", aber der Rest kann als Makulatur zurück in die Druckerei! Das ist kein ernsthafter Vergleich mit den USA-Postern. Die Postkartenposter zähle ich irgendwie gar nicht mit, keine Ahnung, für mich gibt es immer nur 1 Poster pro Konzert

Klar scheint er immer mehr zum Laberkasten zu mutieren, aber trotzdem würden wir (alle) ausrasten, wenn sie die Konzerte offiziell rausrücken und du wärst doch der erste, der die limitierte Box bestellt!

Tja, wie man sich doch irren kann
Ich habe noch nicht einmal ein einziges der Bootlegs von der 2011er oder 2012er Tour erstanden 
Selbst Eddie's Live-DVD steht bei uns (noch) nicht im Regal.

Dann bist du für mich aber kein wahrer Fan
Ich vermute mal, dass du die ganzen PJ-Radio-Premieren daheim selbst mitgeschnitten hast

Show 2
Set List

01. Brain Damage-(Waters) {played behind the front curtain}
02. Sometimes {curtain opens to reveal Ed}
03. Can’t Keep (Ed forgets first line and stops playing. He has trouble hearing what people are suggesting and it takes some time for someone in the audience to come up with “I want to shake...”)
04. Sleeping By Myself
05. Without You

(Ed asks to see the audience so the house lights are brought up a bit. Ed talks about the building and its age. He says ukuleles probably were played a fair bit here. This song is from about 15 years after this building was built)

06. More Than You Know-(Rose, Eliscu, Youmans)
07. I Am Mine
08. You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away-(Lennon, McCartney)

(Ed swaps acoustic guitars and comments that the one he is holding now was made about five years after the theater was built. He speculates that it might even have been played here. He also notes that he is seeing a lot of parents bringing young children to the shows. Ed apologizes because he knows he is going to use bad language and the parents are going to have to explain to the kids what those words mean. “You know, well that word is how you kids were made...No..not cocksucker....oops, fuck.” Ed then talks about how the next song is more than just a love song but a song about the relationship between parents and children. He dedicates the song to the parents who bring their children to the show.)

09. Just Breathe (Ed knows he has mentioned it before but it was such an honor to have a great songwriter like Willie Nelson cover one of his songs that once he heard it, he couldn’t stop doing it like Willie.)

10. Man Of The Hour
(audience member shouts “4/20/02”. Ed notes that the request is for a song about Layne Staley of “Alice In Chains”. This leads to a brief discussion of drugs and a Bill Hicks reference. Ed moves onto the top of Man of The Hour. As Ed reveals the song is about the difficult relationships between parents and children and how children, no matter how innocent they seem, eventually they are going to rebel. Ed says he is lucky. He hasn’t had to deal with that yet. He talks briefly about Chris McCandless from “Into The Wild”)

11. Far Behind (Ed starts to play and realizes he has the wrong guitar. He gets the right one and starts over)
12. Setting Forth
13. Guaranteed

(Ed notes that he has liked being in Tulsa and was excited for the show but that he has made more mistakes tonight than he has the whole tour. He says he heard the theater was haunted and jokingly suggests that the ghost has possessed him and doesn’t know how to play any of the songs. He also tells a story about trying to explain the meaning of the lyrics of Guaranteed to his very young daughter. The line “don’t come closer or I’ll have to go” was too complex to explain to her so he told her Chris was saying that to the bear in the film. She was cautious when she would visit her dad in the studio because she thought the bear might be at the studio as well.)

14. Rise
15. Long Nights w/ Glen Hansard

(“I am going to play this for the love of my life. She isn’t here tonight, I hope yours is.”)

16. Picture In A Frame-(Brennan, Waits)
17. Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
18. Lukin
19. Porch

Encore Break 1

(Ed looks at a pile of requests that have made it to the stage. He jokes that he will look these over and get them for tomorrow night's show. People laugh and start shouting requests again. Ed says “Okay, the forums are closed.” He talks about his days as a waiter and says he doesn’t take orders any more. Unless they are “from Stone Gossard, then I say, ‘yes sir’....sometimes...” Another person shouts that they are glad Ed is feeling better he talks about his injury in the spring and how he couldn’t play for more than 90 seconds. He then breaks in to the fast strumming he plays in “Millworker” showing that he is back in good form. after that he says the next song was a request he got earlier in the day)

20. Millworker middle section Jam
21. The Kid’s Are Alright-(Townshend)
22. Unthought Known
(Ed invites Glen out to play the next few songs. Ed says the next song is by Jerry Hannan. A great songwriter from Northern California. I am glad he let me sing his song. (for the film Into The Wild) It might be my favorite one on the album.)

23. Society w/ Glen Hansard-(Hannan)
24. Sleepless Nights w/ Glen Hansard-(Bryant, Bryant) busking no mics or PA

(Ed talks about growing up in working class Chicago and Glen in Ireland. He talks about Woody Guthrie and the next song. He asks the audience to sing along)

25. This Land Is Your Land w/ Glen Hansard-(Guthrie)

(Ed says “one of our long time crew members, who has been with us through some of the toughest times including Roskilde couldn’t be here but some of his family are. His name is Pete Beattle and I would like to dedicates the next song to the members of the Wilkins family.”)

26. Falling Slowly w/ Glen Hansard-(Hansard, Irglová)
27. Forever Young-(Dylan)
28. Rockin’ In The Free World-(Young)

Also im Gegensatz zu den letzten Postern, die mir eigentlich ganz gut gefallen haben, kann ich mir diesem vom 19.11. irgendwie nicht allzu viel anfangen.

Also im Gegensatz zu den letzten Postern, die mir eigentlich ganz gut gefallen haben, kann ich mir diesem vom 19.11. irgendwie nicht allzu viel anfangen.

Meine Begeisterung hält sich auch in Grenzen, wobei es sicherlich ziemlich beeindruckend sein kann, wenn es vor einem liegt.
Eddie wollte halt ein dunkles und politisches Poster haben. Nun hat er es bekommen.
