So they are these are people voice-verified

Who have close relationships to Ed Sheeran, even McAlmoore professed to have a close relationship with Ed Sheeran. voice-verified

Um, and none of them, I think it's noteworthy in their statements, none of them really tore into Ed Sheeran at all. voice-verified

They all sort of expressed some measure of sympathy with the decision that he's been forced to make. voice-verified

But at the end of the day, they did all leave the tour. voice-verified

And I think it really created obviously a snowball effect for Ed Sheeran. voice-verified

You know, from the perspective of he is losing all the people he had chosen to go on tour with. voice-verified

Now, what Ed Sheeran could have possibly expected from his almost entirely Irish opening act and supporting act, and even the ones who weren't directly Irish, I mean Phineas is Irish, his last name is O'Connell, McGamore is Irish. voice-verified

What Ed Sheeran was sort of thinking would happen when he issued this statement saying that he really had no moral function, that he was someone who wanted to stay on the outside of this uh issue and essentially wanted to kowtow to the demands of stadium owners. voice-verified

I just think he must have really misread uh I think he must have misread where the rest of the world was at. voice-verified

And I think that that has kind of continued into um voice-verified

you know, he played a sh his show in Philadelphia after days of all this controversy. voice-verified

There was, I suppose, question marks over he would have whether he would play the show at all. voice-verified

And that's something he alluded to himself in his uh he made this statement before his set. voice-verified

And voice-verified

He, you know, opened the show and he said, I'm gonna do something a bit different. voice-verified

I'm just gonna talk to you before I play my songs. voice-verified

And he proceeded to just read from a teleprompter. voice-verified

I don't know if was it his phone, but he was constantly just looking down, obviously reading something and reading this statement where again it was a matter of both sides. voice-verified

He said he had some phrases that I found so strange. voice-verified
