          a) Could Be Drunk?

          b) Has Ants In His Pants?

          c) The Stage Is Falling Apart?

          d) Where The Fuck Am I?

          What's Your Guess?

            As a die-hard, I'm rooting for this Tour all the way. I know that it is said that Sobriety is a "One Day at a Time" (pun intended) deal....so, with the 40-some-odd gigs behind Ed, so far, I give him credit. He may have fallen off (temporarily - doing a Lindsay Lohan swig or more) for New Years Eve "Eve" that night, but it's to be expected at some point, especially in Vegas.

            To sum it up for the 12/30 concert...Ed sounded like crap during the solo, but the concert was still Awesome!

            Hoping 2008 proves that Ed can keep it together until April 7th Milwaukee Finale.
            Hey, I'm pullin' for the guy-I bought tix.

            Let's face it, though. Ed can ill-afford a Lohan swig anymore.

            Even when he's ALLEGEDLY sober he's on a dry drunk. He needed lots of work.

            I'd say more than what he allowed himself between the Feb.07 announcement/rehab/RRHoF/ presser announcing the current tour.

            I understand some peoples skepticism prior to it. This is proof he's not 100%-drunk or not. I'm concerned about his mental.


            Step lightly Ed.

                          1.Strung out from the night before ,I'm Cool With It.

                          (You can't call in sick at 250,000$ per night)

                          2.Party before Gig, I am Not Cool With It.

                          (Work is Work)

                          3.Party durring to lossen up, It's all good.

                          (Smooth out the edges)

                          Stop partying for a few months...best better best.

                          If I have work to do I don't party unless there is a two day grace period.I refuse to show up, strung out, looking strung out, or sweating strung out.

                          Recovery time ain't what it used to be BABY!

                          I have lost jobs from the sh!t ,whatever it may be.

                          I would rather be know as a drunk who fukked himself out of a job than a drunk who was fired for showing up drunk.

                          It's a team thing, If your missing they can adjust and cuss you, if you are a useless lush on the job you should be fragged.

                          These type of things "LIVE", there is no lee-way, we may have at our gigs, it's not the movies, it aint pre-recorded.

                          WORK FIRST PLAY LATER.

                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^!!!!!!!!!!

                          (learned from old partiers words to live by)

                          More words to live by

                          They can make it, faster than you can drink it.

                            It's weird that he can still play the tunes o.k. (not as sharp as the old days) but he is so out of it on his solo he thinks that he needs Al's drum sticks to make something happen!!!! I still think alot of his problems are his amps and bullshit effects board !! He gets lost really easy in his solo then makes things worse when he starts noodling around !! Or maybe it is pill popping!!! Ed drop the solo its sounding like 2004 all over again!!

                              They should just stick with songs. Those solos spots got old years ago.

                                BINGO!

                                There lies the problem.

                                While its entirely possible Ed was on the sauce, the fact is that his solo has been pretty much the same thing since....1982.

                                Eruption, Cathedral, Spanish Fly, etc., etc.

                                I think Ed is bored with "having" to play the same thing again and again. I think he's more interested and comfortable playing the songs.

                                So I say scrap the entire fucking solo. If he absolutely HAS TO play Eruption or Cathedral --- play them as intros before songs---which would be a nice in-between song break.

                                Also, with all the personal problems Ed has gone through, he has probably gotten far more insecure about himself than ever before, hence not being able to stand alone on the stage all by himself.

                                Thus, his comfort level and better playing ability is when he's with the entire band.
