      Notice on the comments that more and more people are saying "it's growing on me". Yup, it's a "grower"...

            Watching Ed in that Video and listening to that Guitar puts a smile on my face.

              Ed sounds great...I wish they had less synth fill...Eds tone and Daves voice blend well

                I think Ed plays well...still a little "thin" to me...but sounds better than anything he's done in years...

                He sounded great at the Wha? show...

                  WTF are you talking about? A tongue in cheek comment about knowing what happens at a Sammy Hagar show gets me an insult.

                    As opposed to being a show-er?

                      I am assuming -Synth Fill- is a additional, generated sound created by some foot peddle box accessory ..? Not a normal guitar body, pick-ups sound achieved by the switches and nobs on his guitar.

                      I am tone deaf I believe at least after a year of attempting to play guitar I quit..if they would have had a electric tuner like they have now, I would have been able to move past the issue of, in tune..lol. Hell I was 13 and then discovered girls, motorcycles...blaa blaa....lol

                      I am not harshing here can you give me a short lesson on synth fill..? and I he makes it so, is it something lacking or the way it is..? as in a sound not nessecary to purists?

                      peace

                        Maybe Synth fill is wrong term but there is an organ/piano or something playing behind the band that is way to loud imo...would prefer more bass/guitar fill..

                          WARF..!!! ? He is the 5th Beatle and plays Piano..lol.

                          Thanks, I thought ..ugg.. it was a tech term for cheezing the guitar with to much effects.

                          So, if played live (Tattoo) will there be a record playing in the background behind the stage..? during the show.. or on stage up front by a real human..when additional music is a needed,,?

                          It may be Ed on the piano...could be a good thread title..? last two senences..?

                                I just heard Tattoo at the FYE in Concord, NC. They also blasted out In a Simple Rhyme, Me Wise Magic, Can't Get This Stuff No More, Panama and I'll Wait while I was in there. First time I've heard Tattoo in public in the Charlotte area. I don't really listen to the radio though, so it could be on one of our classic rock stations.
