In the wake of Ed's recent solo appearances with Neil Finn, we thought we'd revisit another special EV solo appearance from 1996.

On an off night from the European tour, Ed popped up onstage as an opening act for the Fastbacks at the Vera, a very tiny club in Groningen, Holland on 11/05/96. This was the first appearance of the now-infamous "The What" and the source of the equally infamous version of "Naked Eye". (You can read more about this gig and performance in Song X.)

These very cool and rare photos of Ed performing that night were recently submitted to us and we hope you enjoy them.
