IZOD Arena Ed Meltdown

[Ragingmike]

Ed WA off

I sat in section 209 at IZOD. I could hardly hear the guitar at all, it was all bass & drums. when Ed was the only one playing, he was audible.. His solo did suck, too.. Cathedral was horrible, and the rest was just noise.

This was my first time seeing them with Dave (he was amazing), and 15th or so time seeing EVH live, and it was the 2nd worst performance I've seen, the worst being the show at the Meadowlands in 2004 when he was clearly a drunk dirtbag. I'm going to the show in NYC at MSG next week. I have much better seats, so hopefully I will be able to hear Ed's guitar a little better..

Got it.

Yeah man... at least he's got Dave there to hold it all together with his unbelievable charisma....

Ed's solo was definately not his best, but for the most part he was fine... I give Ed a solid C+. I'd give him a B on some of the songs...
Dave gets an A+, Alex gets an A, and Wolf rocked with an A.
I hope MSG rocks.

Maybe Dave should just say to the sound crew: Man you don't feed that, you don't fix that feedback I'm goin kick yo ass man!!! :D

Just for the record I was in section 109 row 8 seats 13 and 14.

Ed is just a shell of his former self. Don't get me wrong, it's not like he screwed up everything...he just can't play nearly the way he used to and it's sad...his solo SUCKED. So many guitar players could have out done Ed and that my friends is just sad. I am sorry that the man I once held in highest esteem now seems so ordinary....

My devotion to VH should be taken with the fact that I flew from Tampa to see them. I left still loving Dave and disapointed in Ed...that's all.

AND if they come to Tampa, I WILL be there....

I'll be flying to NYC this month to catch them myself...

I think the thing with Eddie now is he seems human... he's not 25 and doing mountains of blow anymore. Sure, there are some guys who could jump on stage and do what he did that night, but none of those guys created the style... and that's what I'm there for.

And when they come to Florida, I'll be there too.

Can I use that in my sig?

Absolutely! Talk about a guy who had everything and pissed it away. The world is full of musicians who would love to make a real living at it. Ed got rich doing it and pissed it away. Ed was married to a beautiful wife and she left him because she couldn't take the bullshit. Ed has a fat kid because daddy was too busy chasing porn star ass and being drunk all the time when he should have seen his kid getting fat and played some racketball with the kid. Ed once was a pretty good looking guy with good health. He fucked that too.

Dad was addicted to booze, cigarettes, and blow. The Son is addicted to Hostess Twinkies and Ding Dongs. :D
