Not with C-Average, just solo Ed on Acoustic, Electric and Uke.
I'd like to see him do a small tour playing small venues, I'm sure tickets would sell really fast.

Why not? I would love to see that.
Yeah tell us why not
I saw Jeff Tweedy's DVD and thought about how cool it would be if Ed did a similar thing.

I loved the solo sets he did for Nader in 2000. I'm sure it would be great, but I'd rather here him with the band

It would be cool to see, but I can't see how it'd compare to a full band show. I love the pre-sets and when Eddie comes out first to do an encore song alone, but I really don't need to see a whole show like that, especially if the uke is being played. And if it did happen, I'd definately hope for some Pearl Jam songs in the set, it'd be cool to see them played differently.

It all depends on what songs he would play. If they're just PJ songs played solo, my answer is no. If they are new songs or a bunch of covers, then yes.

NO NEVER, Not until Pearl Jam hangs it up...
lead signers should never do this,
although In Eds case theres little to worry about...
If Ed puts out a solo album, and for whatever stranged odd reason it becomes a big hit... where does that leave Pearl Jam? Ed then goes on a solo tour to promote the solo album, sells out everywhere (as of course all the PJ fans go, along with new fans hes picking up) Ed makes tons more money instead of spliting it with the rest of PJ and says "fuck I dont need those guys to get my message out..." and thats the end of Pearl Jam as we know it...
okay like i said above, lil to worry about with Ed in this manner, but just ask the guys in No Doubt what Gwens solo turn as done for No Doubts life as a band.
for the most part, PJ is Eds band to voice... theres really no point to going solo, as Pearl Jam will pretty much let Ed sing what he wants, and say what he wants...
with all that said... I would love to hear Ed do a solo set like the Chris Cornell one from back in the fall from Sweden I think it was? where he did a few Audioslave songs, a few Soundgarden, a few Temple of the Dog, and a couple of covers... now that Id be all for... Get Ed on Rock Line some night and just let him sing whatever he wants. Or something along those lines...
but a full Ed solo tour? wait till Pearl Jam goes on a Indefinite Hiatus.

You can actually find ALOT of bands that have had this situation.
Most of which have nothing in common with each other let alone No Doubt...
but in all cases... lead singers / solo tour = end of original band.
Hell Ya think McCartney was going to go back to the Beatles and splitting it 4 ways after he set out with Wings and brought home the big slice of bread???

definitely but then again, if we think about a show with lot´s of uke songs in it, we should also start thinking about smaller venues otherwise it wouldn´t fit, because we got to admitt that an intire show just with the uke and some acoustic guitar isn´t really made for larger places.it loses most of the fun.
