"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Alive was very good version. Lightning Bolt maybe a little better than usual version, rest of "first set" pretty standard. Ed's voice on the non acoustic stuff maybe a little deeper/off compared to usual. Imagine definitely the highlight, especially since in Central Park. Redemption Song with Beyonce very cool too, broken up by Nelson Mandela speech. Nice version with them trading verses. Was kind of hoping for her husband to come on next and do 99 Problems again like Made in America but got the expected RITFW.
Quality effort with two rarities/breakouts but if I would have paid extra premium on secondary market tickets or traveled a long way, I'd be a little disappointed given length of show.
Pearl Jam sounded amazing. I loved Redemption Song with Beyoncé, that was nicely done. You guys going to the Latin America tour are in for a treat, Ed's voice sounds great.
Spent most of the day around some cool Beyoncé fans in VIP2, and then me and my buddies brought it for Pearl Jam. Hope the band could feel the energy from behind VIP1. The mix of people in VIP1 was...interesting.
All in all, super stoked that I got to see Pearl Jam twice in my awesome city and very happy that they are sounding really tight. I mean, I just saw my favourite band in Central fucking Park! Dude.
Thank you Pearl Jam. Until next time....

Obviously selfish me wanted 30-40 more minutes
Stoping at 10:15ish is odd on a Saturday night in NYC
Just got back from show....stupid me forgot to add extension on dvr.... Only like 3 songs taped
He then tells me it's too nice of a night to be alone and let's me into VIP 1.
I then make my way about 3 off the rail and go nuts!
He was onstage during sound check.

Beyoncé was cool to watch; very very different from what I m used too but damn can she sing and dance!
After that there were just waaaaaaay to many speakers. At one point people started booing the ceo of some company. Forty minutes of speakers was just absurd; we got it, end global poverty!
Pj sounded great. Mym was a very odd song to start with but overall I enjoyed the short set. Lighting bolt was awesome and redemption song made everything worth it (although I could have gone without the Mandela speech in the middle of it).
I hate outdoor shows because the whole time I was there I felt like I could hear a pin drop.
It was great night out with my wife minus the kids and I look for some real shows next year.
I mean I'm glad we got some Pearl Jam.... I was in VIP2 and the sound was kind of rough.... Being nitpiky... I only heard Mike (really loud - not a bad thing!) and Ed's voice. No Stone or Jeff in the mix... You could tell they were all excited and at times Ed was singing over the band instead of letting the song breathe... That said, PJ a little speeded up is still great rock and roll...
I could have done without Beyoncé duet and would have preferred a few more PJ songs... Set had a weird flow...
I guess something is better than nothing....

The PJ set was exactly what I expected, I knew they would start with something fast, play Imagine somewhere during show and end with RITFW. Thought set would be a bit longer, started at about 9:15 and ended at about 10:18. Highlight of the show for me was Alive, so powerful, love that song. Could have done without Redemption Song, but Ed was much better than Beyonce. Band really looked like they loved being up there, especially Ed. Took him awhile to get off stage at end. For what it was, set was great and band sounded awesome.
I was in VIP3, was pretty surprised at how far back we were , felt like we were a mile from stage, could barely see but had a great view of the screen.
They need to come back next year and do US shows. This band is too good and has too rabid a fan base not to be playing more shows.
2) Ed Sheeran is a MASTER of the looping station. Talk about a "One Man Band!"
3) The Chris Martin and Arianna Grande performance of the Harry Styles song was great and seemed very heart-felt.
4) Common....WOOF! Needed him to get off stage. Thank goodness Sting showed up and tried to polish up what was otherwise a turd performance.
5) I don't want a picture of Bill Nye dancing with Pearl Jam. I NEED a picture of Bill Nye dancing with Pearl Jam!
All in all, a great night!
