\n\tOnly in New York would happy hour bar patrons shrug off an offer of a free round from one of the world\u2019s most popular entertainers. But there Ed Sheeran<\/a> was this week when he hit a string of bars as part of a pub crawl to celebrate the release of his new album, Autumn Variations<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tEd Sheeran Welcomes the New Season With \u2018Autumn Variations\u2019 Album: Stream It\u00a0Now\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tSheeran posted a video early Friday morning (Sept. 29) in which he set off on a crawl, buying rounds of drinks at a series of bars to honor his second album of new material this year, the follow-up to May\u2019s \u2013 (Subtract)<\/em> collection. The clip opens with Sheeran behind the bar pouring out endless shots of vodka while a bell clangs in the background at a crowded establishment.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cRight, to celebrate my album release I\u2019m gonna pub crawl, go in random bars and drinks are on me for the next six hours\u2026 let\u2019s\u2026 GO!\u201d Sheeran said explaining the night\u2019s plan. It got off to a somewhat slow start, however, as the first stop found Sheeran standing at the bar alone, seemingly unnoticed, with just a few patrons realizing they were in the presence of pop royalty.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re in the first bar, I\u2019m on the first drink,\u201d Sheeran tells the camera. \u201cI have got everyone a drink in the bar\u2026 but we\u2019re not there yet,\u201d he lamented, shaking his head at the sight of a mostly empty room with no sign of shrieking Sheerios. To be fair, Ed said in a confessional aside, the crawl started at happy hour when people were just getting off work, so he promised, \u201cwe are going to the f\u2013king place where people wanna go for it!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd so, Sheeran hopped on the subway, bro\u2019d down with a guy during the ride and then cut to a much more raucous scene of him playing beer pong and setting up yet another galaxy of shots on a bar. With just 90 minutes left in their run, Ed headed to Greenwich Village\u2019s Off the Wagon, where yet more shots were lined up and the excitement level seemed to finally match Sheeran\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re done for the night\u2026 we started out, the place\u2026 they weren\u2019t feeling it,\u201d Sheeran summarized of his bleary night out. \u201cThe next place? Weren\u2019t feeling it either. We got on the subway, and then\u2026 here we are. I\u2019m very drunk right now. Very drunk.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tSheeran released Autumn Variations<\/em> on his own Gingerbread Man Records on Friday, a collection he said in a statement was inspired by a difficult time he went through last year, during which he wrote songs to help him \u2014 and his friends \u2014 understand their feelings, from falling in love to \u201cnew friendships, heartbreak, depression, loneliness and confusion.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tIn another celebration of the meditative Aaron Dessner-produced album of mostly acoustic pop ballads, Sheeran also announced that his team found an emoji for every hand-drawn icon on the album\u2019s cover, from empty roads to comfort food, money troubles, moments of sadness, old fisherman\u2019s huts and dreams of spring.<\/p>\n
