Gay that I met some other FBG's? Are you a homophobe?
Ahhh, so that's what happened. I sent you a text Friday.Saturday we hung around and boozed by Citizens to take in all the World Series pregame.I actually didn't even drink alot Saturday night, never even left my seat. Friday night I was plastered though. Very pleased with the ease of smoking, ANYTHING, in the Spectrum both nights. People were smoking J's Friday night where the stairs lead up to 324 by the overhang railing. Usually that's where ushers hang.Sorry to anyone who tried to get together with me yesterday. My cell battery took a dump.I will be down a little later today, but definitely hit me up and we'll try to make it happen again.
Suprised I didn't get a few more, but when you add in first time gems like:Hold On, Out of My Mind, Whip It, Crown of Thorns, Sweet Lew...Rummaging through my vault, here is what I've never heard live (from the albums, not including Backspacer) before that was not played the last two nights, therefore making these a real possibility!
Deep - would complete Ten, I expect this one.
WMA - would complete Vs, but doubtful imo. I have heard it tagged numerous times.

Pearl Jam perpetuates this mindset with all the ultra-rare merchandise shtick that's been going on the past few years.
Don't forget the guy in front of my caught the tamborine.
Was going back and reading the thread from mid to late 08Great stuffI couldn't have even predicted the awesomeness that was Philly 09 back thenHere's to an awesome PJ X!
Did forget that one...was too busy kicking up balloons to notice I almost got pelted in the head with that sucker!Tiger Fan said:

Went back and read the first five pages of the thread...some good one's...but this is great
Was there a PJ thread before 2006? I thought we went further back together....Celph Titled = Truckpurely board schtick (well maybe he really hates PJ :shrug)Celph Titled puts a remark in every thread he starts stating that some country hates Pearl Jam.

yes, I just wasn't gonna out him. (like it matters though)Celph Titled = Truckpurely board schtick (well maybe he really hates PJ :shrug)
b/c I just got finished taking a trip to Vegas with the guys in Sept and going to Baltimore to see Eddie earlier this Spring. She could've easily said "Screw you, I'm going no matter what" and I wouldn't have had a leg to stand on. But we just set up camp and started drinking some beers. Eventually BBWC and his friend came and met us, and my GB and his girlfriend joined as well. We drink some beers and then head into the arena.....
He's been hanging out in uber chat for a few weeks, and TU and I have really given him all the Pearl Jam he can handle. I don't blame him for lashing out.
I figured it was fair game considering anyone who wants to know can just look it up in that :e: threadyes, I just wasn't gonna out him. (like it matters though)Celph Titled = Truckpurely board schtick (well maybe he really hates PJ :shrug)
So finally got some time for a recap.....The Saturday before the shows, the wife and I are sitting in Tiger Stadium watching the LSU game and she mentions something about her friends wanting to take a girls' trip to NYC in February. I reply sarcastically with "That's cool as long as I can go see Pearl Jam in Philly next week." Now I was fully expecting aBut we just set up camp and started drinking some beers.

lol, forgot about this.So I get into the arena and I realize that my floor seat is all the way in the back and I'm right in the middle.....so I start walking around (this is b/w the opening act and PJ) to see where security might be lax to figure out how I can sneak up somewhere. As I'm walking around, I see TU and him and Zilla have great seats in the front row of the first level (which is basically a floor seat). The first 2 seats in the isle are empty and they have seats 3 & 4, so I figure, I'd just watch the show from the isle until someone tells me to move. Fortunately for me, this couple shows up and the girl asks me (not knowing this wasn't my seat) "do you mind if I watch the show from the isle b/c I'm short, you can take my seat". Score. As you saw from the setlist, the first set was freaking incredible:So finally got some time for a recap.....The Saturday before the shows, the wife and I are sitting in Tiger Stadium watching the LSU game and she mentions something about her friends wanting to take a girls' trip to NYC in February.

Hardly ever got a chance to just relax b/c the first set was rocking the entire time
Got to hear IMT, Present Tense and Unthought Known - all lived up to expectations.....I know I've been a ####### for Unthought Known in this thread, but that song is incredible. I'm this close from claiming it PJ's best song ever, seriously.
Got to hear Mamasan for the 3rd time I believe..Crazy Mary as stellar as always.....Probably the best Sonic Reducer I've ever heard (and I think they literally play it at every show I go to)All in all a great show
ThanksThey did this at San Diego and it was awesome. Tons of people came running in from the concession area cause it happened right after Ben's first song in his set. Afterwards Ben said something like "Bet you'll never be late again."
Also did Under Pressure with Ben Harper againWhat's amazing about this new album is how great it sounds liveReading this setlist I see they played 7 new songs, but they already feel integrated into the PJ repertoireNice mix from the albums also
Couple of pointsI don't think they can play a 4+ hour show at that intensity. They left it all out there in there as it was. Quality, not quantity IMO. Would rather have a blistering band and Ed than a "pace ourselves" bandRegarding Ed getting pissed, I disagree that he's a perfectionist. They #### up more live than any band I have seen. Mainly b/c they don't play the same songs every night. When you have a live repertoire of 100 songs, you're going to make mistakes. This occurred more often on 10/31 due to the sheer number of rarities they attempted. There were a couple of moments where he was thrown off/angry, but I don't think they defined or even represented his mood that night. Off the top of my head: when he hit his mouth on the mic at the beginning of Porch and was going to stop, before the crowd sang the verse and carried the band through; when they messed up the beginning of Bugs and he was going to scrap it (again the crowd's cheering willed him on); and during Free World, when a big dude in the front road wrestled his wine bottle away from the girl he threw it to (big thread at the PJ boards about this BTW). Personally, I think those moments help make a PJ show as special as it is. Any band can just stand there and play the same 20 songs every night. I will take some anger, emotion and #### ups every day, even if it results in the occasional shorter show (which I don't think it did in this case).
I agree with most of what you say. And I think the "perfectionist" comment was bad....but I'm having problems getting my point across. Do you think the night went (basically) as planned then? I just think they were gonna go ultimate balls to the wall. Maybe they did
Again, amazing show...I'm not knocking anything at all.
16 months late, but you got it Zills
All the stations here are showing it at weird times like 4 am. I don't do Tivo. But, it should pop up at dime, in hi-def. Recent episodes have been. Problem with that is I don't really know how to downcovert it to share with you guys.Effin Philly boots makin me cry, I wanted them for my trip next week
If you find otherwise, post it. FWIW, I had ACL set up on my DVR, but it hadn't been coming up with new shows, which made me look into it to find out. No more donations...f the totebags!
