At the time I was a struggling musician, so I made a lot of my living through doing concerts in fans&#8217; houses.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;So I got an email from Ed&#8217;s dad John a few days after, saying: &#8216;My kid Ed is 14, he was at the gig and he loved the looping, will you come play his 15th birthday?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;So Ed and his dad picked me up from the train station and I did a gig to Ed and his teenage buddies.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Then we stayed up late looking at live looping and the basics of how to use it &#8211; and that was the beginning of our friendship. Little did I know he&#8217;d become the biggest star in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nGary also emphasised that it takes a lot of skill to use a loop pedal.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said: &#8220;I find it interesting that people can watch the gig and criticise the art and not understand the complexity and the vulnerability of what he&#8217;s doing.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;If he pushes a button half a second out the whole song can fall out of sync.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/sheeran-set-sell-range-loop-pedals-1385065.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10 September 2023 Ed Sheeran is planning to sell his own range of loop pedals.
