Chad Taylor has elaborated on his comments on Chris Shinn from the recent Rolling Stone magazine article. Chad's Facebook message is posted below: Chad Taylor 1 February · The entire experience of singing and playing the old songs was confusing for all of us (band and fans). Chris no more wanted to stand in Ed’s shoes, than Ed would have wanted to stand in his. When we began writing songs there were no constraints or pressures but as the demos started being created, Chris was suddenly faced with inside and outside pressure to make it a LIVE album. This was easy for PD, CG and me but even Jerry Harrison warned that the walls would/could close in on Chris. We broke this up by doing the Summerland Tour to get in touch with what it felt like to be a band in front of an audience. On this particular night, we were performing in a large amphitheater, the largest of the entire tour. The band were hitting our marks and finding our footing as a quartet, and the energy of the crowd was peaking just about the time we hit Lightning Crashes. These are the special moments where the audience and band merge; and hopefully where the spirit of a songs origination can return; where the crowd sings so loud we can melt into one. As I looked to my left to find my grounding, I saw Chris with his microphone extended to the crowd and my brain was shell shocked, “who is that? What’s happening?” This a real and honest snapshot of what goes on during a performance for me, and what I experienced during many of the shows I performed with Chris. It doesn’t mean that he’s not a good person, or a great performer, and that I’m not grateful for his partnership. My thoughts are not all pretty and cleaned up, if anything its one big mess. For thirty-years of my life that figure on our stage was Ed, and from the view of my lens it was so surreal and odd to witness someone else in this position. I doubt any interview would allow for that entire story or sentiment, but I was asked a direct question and shared a small piece of my experience, raw, unfiltered and incomplete. My comment certainly wasn’t meant to detract from the spirit of our collaboration, but I remain wholly happy that Ed is back in his rightful place, and that Chris no longer has to deal with the distractions of being the “replacement guy.” I’m sure I/we fucked this up along the way but there was no easy way to get to where we are today and really that’s all I care about. Yes, egos were bruised, but the music should only benefit from our journey. Chris will find his footing, and the original line-up of the band will produce some inspired tunes and shows.

Had some high levels which evened out mid song, edited track to fix distortion. Lots of chatter from the people around me, as the setting was seats and tables in a dinner setting. Honestly have to say the lap steel on White Disucssion is not good, nor was the solo rendition of Lakini's Juice. Tough to replicate the real band in any capacity on these old classics. Ed seems to get drunker as the show grows on past the encore as he states and sounds, but what the heck, it's only rock n roll. Ed sounding better overall even though some songs, the pitchy falsetto still comes out. He is still using the autotune mic on songs like DAOC and WD where you can hear a lower edgier register.

On February 11th, 2014, I had one of the best concert experiences of my life thanks to you…my amazing fans. I performed Throwing Copper (front-to-back) in front of a sold-out Enmore Theatre in Sydney, Australia. I think back on it and still get chills. I had a premonition that Sydney was going to be a special night, and thanks to the folks at Moshcam and Pledge Music, we were able to put together a very talented team of filmmakers to capture the concert, the fans, the energy and the overall experience in such a way that you will feel like you are there when you see it! I am so excited to share this incredible concert and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Throwing Copper with you through the CD/DVD. I send my heartfelt thanks to you all for your support in making this project become a reality with your pledge. -Ed K http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/throwingcopper20thanniversary • posted by dangum on april 8, 2014 |

+LIVE+ THE COMPLETE B-SIDES & RARITIES COLLECTION 10 DISC SET 5 DOUBLE-CD VOLUMES compilation & artwork by ridleybradout FAN-MADE PROJECT – NOT FOR SALE **TRADE FREELY BUT DO NOT CONVERT & DISTRIBUTE AS MP3** "The 1990’s and early 2000’s were not only a glorious time for the band +Live+, but for collectors of B-sides and rarities. Before the death of the CD single circa-2009, collectors used to scour record stores for these highly sought after (and often import only) releases, containing unique tracks such as covers, live performances, acoustic versions and remixes. Radio stations put out CD compilations of songs recorded in their studios and the band themselves gave their fanclub members Holiday Gifts featuring rare tracks. Some lucky fans were even able to obtain promotional versions of albums and singles containing rare outtakes and alternate versions of songs, which they kindly shared with the rest of the +Live+ fan community. This ambitious project aimed to bring together every +Live+ track that has appeared on an officially released single, holiday gift, soundtrack, compilation or promo. Many of these tracks have been circulating among fans as mp3s over the years, but this is the first time they have been collected together and shared in lossless format. The discs have been arranged in chronological order and aimed to keep distinct eras of the band's history to separate discs. The radio edits have been collected on Disc 9, which serves as an alternate 'Greatest Hits', while remixes and side-projects etc. have been collected on Disc 10. As a bonus, some unreleased songs taken from demo session tapes are included on Disc 8. While these tracks have been traded among fans previously, the versions included here have been expertly remastered by my fellow compilation enthusiast JWB, so this is the best sound quality these songs have ever been available in. You'll probably notice the biggest improvement in Hold Me Up and Susquehanna, which have undergone significant tape hiss reduction, time correction and now have an increased dynamic range. Hopefully one day the band will put out properly mastered versions of these and other unreleased songs. A huge thanks to my fellow fans at www.fansoflive.com who contributed to this project and to Dangum especially for running the site and keeping the +Live+ fan community alive after all these years. A special thanks to BerlinOne who fact-checked the liner notes, and to Swami whose website www.livediscography.com was extremely valuable in compiling this collection. Enjoy and please support +Live+ and Ed in their future endeavours." +Live+ The Complete B-Sides & Rarities Collection, 10CD FLAC set available for download here!

Chad Taylor has responded to the Ed Kowalczyk's Rolling Stone article. A copy of Taylor's reponse is copied below. Update: Live settles lawsuits, Ed Kowalczyk opens up to Rolling Stone FlipSide staff Posted: 11/21/2013 11:37:45 AM EST In a recent Rolling Stone interview, Ed Kowalczyk talked about his split with Live, the lawsuits and his new solo tour. Read the entire Rolling Stone interview. In 2009, Live, a rock group that formed in York, went on hiatus. Soon afterward, its members became embroiled in a legal battle. In a suit filed May 2010 in New York, band members Patrick Dahlheimer, Chad Gracey and Chad Taylor alleged lead singer Kowalczyk and the band's longtime manager, David Levin, violated terms of a contract. Then, in July 2012, Action Front Unlimited, a corporation that owns trademarks for Live, filed a federal lawsuit against Kowalczyk for branding himself "Ed Kowalczyk of Live" while one a solo tour. On Thursday, Taylor confirmed that both parties have since reached a settlement, thus ending the legal drama. The civil suit documents reflect a settlement had been reached out of court in March. Taylor said that he read what Kowalczyk said to Rolling Stone, but wasn't phased. "Haven't we heard enough about it?" he asked. "We are all satisfied with the lawsuit (settlement). We reached a compromise. I'm very comfortable with how everything worked out. Everything that we've done ... Ed and the three of us, at least in the most recent months, is just to try and get over this." Taylor said he wishes Kowalczyk well, and even sent him a bottle of wine before his Nov. 9 concert at Penn State York's Pullo Family Performing Arts Center. But Taylor said that he did take issue with a few of Kowalczyk's words to Rolling Stone about his role in the creation of Live's music. "Ed deserves his credit for his contributions to the substantial success of Live," Taylor said. "He is not the sole copyright holder. This was a collaboration. I am not upset about Ed promoting his (solo) work. I do not want to inflame this." Taylor said he reached out to the the Rolling Stone writer and extended an invitation to talk. In the meantime, Live, with new lead singer Chris Shinn, has a dozen new tracks recorded and plans to release an album in the coming months. He said his ultimate goal is to ask for forgiveness and try to forgive. "We plan to continue to make Live songs and work on projects to benefit the community," he added.

Ed Kowalczyk recently gave his side of the story regarding the breakup of Live and the multiple lawsuits that Chad Taylor, Patrick Dahlheimer and Chad Gracey pursued against him. A copy of the article is printed below: Ed Kowalczyk Opens Up About His Ugly Split With Live 'I have been completely dumbfounded by their activities and actions over the last four years,' he says By Lori Majewski November 20, 2013 3:20 PM ET Back in the Nineties, Live frontman Ed Kowalczyk was a bald, often bare-chested heir apparent to Bono, commanding arena-sized sing-alongs to hit after hit from the band's eight-million-selling smash, Throwing Copper. "Lightning Crashes," "Selling the Drama," "I Alone": nearly 20 years later, the set list still promises these and other fan favorites, like "Heaven" and "The Dolphin's Cry." But it's a different sized crowd: Kowalczyk's recent Manhattan concert took place at the 161-capacity Joe's Pub. And his shirt stayed on. Onstage, things are different too. True to the title of his current back-to-basics trek – the "I Alone Acoustic Tour," which is now midway through its North American leg – Kowalczyk is the sole performer. Conspicuously absent are the singer's former bandmates, the trio of friends with whom he formed Live to play in a middle-school talent show. After a quarter of a century with the group, Kowalczyk and Live parted ways when the singer was slapped with a 2010 breach-of-contract lawsuit by Patrick Dahlheimer (bass) and the Chads, Chad Gracey (drums) and Chad Taylor (guitar), who were seeking money from a publishing deal that Kowalczyk had entered into several years earlier. Then, in 2012, Live – technically, Action Front Limited, the company that holds the band's trademarks – hit the singer with an infringement suit. Kowalczyk counter-sued. While the others took to social media and sent an email blast to Live fan club members to tell their side of the story (among the grievances: Taylor alleged that Kowalczyk demanded a $100,000 "lead singer bonus" to appear at a 2009 festival), Kowalczyk has remained silent. Until now. With both suits settled and a second solo album, The Flood and the Mercy (Harbour Records Inc./Universal), featuring the single "Seven," just released, Kowalczyk recently opened up to Rolling Stone about the plan for a two-year hiatus from Live that led to the permanent split, his feelings about his former bandmates and how he managed to channel his anger and frustration into his music. "It was the hardest thing I've ever dealt with," he says, "but it was the greatest gift I was given." You weren't kidding when you named this the I Alone Tour. At Joe's Pub, there wasn't even a roadie to hand you a guitar. What's it like out there on your own? I am having the time of my life, and that's hard for people to understand. They think, "Gosh, you guys were selling so many records and so many tickets. You were all over the radio. Now you're playing these acoustic shows, and it's more humble environs." And I go, "Yeah, but in many ways, I'm more fulfilled and having a better time now than I ever did." In which ways? There's so much more life lived behind the songs. The fans have grown with the music, and they're still finding inspiration in it. It feels like everything has come full-circle. In these intimate environments, people get to really tune into the core of what the songs are about. Even though the music starts this way, with just me and a guitar, I've never presented it this way onstage before. You've been saying that this tour and this album represent a new start for you, but it's your second solo record. Did it just take you a while to get to where you wanted to go? With the first album [2010's Alive], I maybe bright-sided it just a little too much. In some ways [The Flood and the Mercy] is a more honest record than the first one. It's unmapped terrain for me, heading out into the unknown after 20 or more years of knowing the territory so well – almost too well. So The Flood and the Mercy came from that: There's this tumult and this huge energy of the water that can be destructive, but it can also be kind of a rebirth, because you wipe the slate clean. And then you get the mercy, this new experience and new joy. But before the joy, there was the pain of parting ways with your longtime friends in a very acrimonious way. You've never really talked about it publicly before. Why? I avoided it, not because I didn't want to talk about it, but because I felt like it was such a distraction. This was supposed to be a new, bright moment in my career, and I wanted people to focus on that. You guys were like a band of brothers – the pride of York, Pennsylvania. When did all the trouble start? After 20-something years, it was time for a rest, and we all agreed to it. We agreed on a two-year hiatus in 2009: we'd wind Live down, the whole machine, and everybody would go do their thing. We played the last show that summer in Long Island, then there was this nightmare of legal stuff that started pretty much immediately. For me, it absolutely was a natural progression [that I would want to pursue solo projects], but there was this unforeseen, incredible fallout that those guys generated against me that was really shocking. What was the gist of that first lawsuit? They sued me [over] this years-old publishing agreement that we had totally agreed to already. All of a sudden there was this loophole or this problem with it. I'd always been the writer, always wrote the lyrics, melodies and most of the music in Live, and I wanted to have my own publishing company and not a joint one. I wanted to move on and start another aspect of my recording career with the solo records, and they totally agreed to it back in 2006. So they dredged this thing up and said they were misled, which is totally untrue. It was practically out of the statutes of limitations, from what I was told. And it was just totally malicious. They just threw it at me to knock me down around the release of [Alive], which increased the shock and awe of it. I'd never been sued before in my life. At this point you were still a member of Live – you'd planned to reunite with the band after doing the solo record. Why would they want to threaten the future of the band? I think it was just anger that I was going to go and do something without them. It's really hard for me to say what their motivations were, or are. I have been completely dumbfounded by their activities and actions over the last four years. I was just trying to move forward and find that energy, that passion again. At the same time that all of this was happening, I was having some of the best shows of my career. One of the first things I did was sing with the Metropole Orchestra in Holland. I was reconnecting with the fans in this amazing, new, intimate and powerful way. I was writing great music. So, for me, it was just weird. I was having this incredible renaissance of joy in what I was doing, but at the same time, there was the contrast of literal legal siege being brought to my doorstep. They had this malicious program of dropping these legal bombs on me when my [first solo] record came out, on my birthday, on Christmas Eve. Every day I had to compartmentalize the fact that these guys who called themselves my friends for most of my life weren't. The second lawsuit was over trademark infringement: they didn't want you to say that you were "of" the band Live. [Kowalczyk is now referred to as "formerly of Live." It's been a problem coming as a solo artist after being known as [the singer with] Live for so long, and having to inform the public and, at the same time, abide by these agreements that I've made. It just seems silly to me, and unnecessary. At what point did you realize that you were going to have to leave the band? [After the first lawsuit], when things had risen to such a stupid level. It's kind of hard, if not impossible, to come back from a breach of trust that a lawsuit represents. Did you find it hard to concentrate on writing new music with all of this going on? In some weird, crazy way that life works, I feel that there's a depth with The Flood and the Mercy that wouldn't be there [if not for the strife]. It's really lemonade from lemons. I just kept trying to use it as grist for the mill. And it made the record and made my shows better. I just used the gifts that I had been given to provide this catharsis for myself, to get through things and to see the bright side, and, at the same time, not deny the fact that I was going through some really shitty stuff. You played York last week. How'd it go? Honestly, it felt like a real big hug. The fans are proud of me, they're proud of my accomplishments. I think they're proud, too, of how I handled what turned into a breakup. I did not disparage anybody online. I kept it really quiet. In fact, I didn't talk about it until now, really, in any real way. And I think they appreciated that. Because those guys were being horrible online, just vitriolic and really nasty – really insulting, really dark commentary about me and my record, and making fun of it. I didn't care, but I really wanted to save the fans from that kind of shit, and I tried by taking – I guess they call it the high road. I think the fans appreciate that they could come to my site and get new releases and that they weren't going to get a bunch of tit-for-tat. There's the aspect of being sued for the first time, then there's the aspect of me, being the lyricist and melodist and songwriter in Live, being the communicator of the spirit of it from my heart to so many people for so many years. To have somebody use that credibility that had been developed for so long, over so much touring, to have them air this dirty laundry – and have it be false – really was the hardest thing for me to deal with. Because they were trying to rupture . . . They didn't succeed because, clearly, it's stronger than ever, my relationship with my fans. But what I felt most insulted and hurt by was the fact that the fans didn't deserve that. Here was this relationship that I had built that they were trying, really, to damage and to disrupt. And that really hurt. That was the hardest thing to take. Live has a new singer [Chris Shinn, formerly of Unified Theory]. And they're not being real clear about who's in it anymore. They obfuscate that it's not the real band. They don't say that it's not the original [lineup]. They just kind of go out and surprise people, and it's really sort of lame. You worked with Peter Buck on quite a few tracks on The Flood and the Mercy. R.E.M. handled their split in a very different way. Did you two compare experiences? One of the things that I really appreciate about R.E.M. now, more than ever, is how Peter described to me how those guys decided to take a break – or end it or whatever it's going to be, we'll see – and how congenial, how brotherly and how respectful of each other those guys were, in contrast to my situation. It made me that much more of a fan. Source:Rolling Stone - Ed Kowalczyk Opens Up About His Ugly Split With Live • posted by dangum on november 20, 2013 |
