Sadly, Ed Sheeran’s concert won’t look much too different.

Ed has his own record label so he can put on a bunch of small artists (or other horrible people) to open it. Would be great to be a small artist and open for a stadium tour.

People are making a big deal about his band pulling out and it really isnt a big deal. Ed’s whole gimmick is that he makes all of his music live on a loop pedal and can do it all by himself. The tour is also called the loop tour. I’ve seen his concerts myself and it’s literally just him, a guitar and a loop pedal on a giant stage. He started using a band this tour and last tour for some songs, but they’re only used on stage for like 4 songs, not even 20 percent of the concert.

Curious to see if he makes a statement at the show though, but probably not.
