I left tonight's show with the Ed/23 one but not the peace sign. Also got the most awesome "EdVed" in Batman on 1 side and "Kapow!" on the other, and an equally awesome Batgirl on 1 side & EV inside batman shape on the other. But I guess these 2nd 2 are not new? I don't know, it's been a looong time since I got PJ guitar picks.
I gave one of the Ed/23 ones to a super - hyped hearing disabled fan and he was awesome, it was nice to make someone else happy!
[EDITED TO CORRECT: Turns out I did NOT give him an Ed/23 pick, it was an "EddieVedder" within the Batman logo, with "Kapow!" on the other side. Still a super cool pick, and the one I thought was coolest at the time, but not the one I thought I gave him. Only realized my mistake in this thread when I checked the photo I took of the guy. He was super-happy with that one though, as was I to give it to him, and at the time I didn't realize any one of them was more rare or special than any other. Only realized that reading this thread!]

Last PJ show before this that I was at, I helped a guy in a wheelchair get into the pit and pit fans looked out for him and he ended up front row. I was truly as excited about that as I was at that truly spectacular show. Tried to help out another fan last night with a seat upgrade but he arrived too late. Shows are just better when you make effort to help someone else have a better time

I was thinking more in the performance art vein - get the rare pick then burn it in front of an audience as a commentary on the impermanence of life...
Trying to mentally prepare myself for the hysteria of a Cubs font EV pick to go with the Sox EV pick but my hands are shaking just thinking about trying to find both.
I don't think Eddie threw any of them out during the show on the second night. At the end of the night one of the guys from the crew was given about 20 of them to hand out. That's all.

Crew folks get all the fun. A few crew members working at Fenway Park posted the setlists before Pearl Jam hit the stage on various social media pages.

Yup, my date and I were 2 of the lucky ones who got them. I immediately swiped my date's one while saying "I'll just hold that for you... you don't really care about it, right?"
Hey everyone, not that anyone probably cares that much but I don't like to put mis-information out there so I need to correct something I said above: So I'm really new to the world of PJ guitar picks and I have no idea what's new or old or special. We were really lucky in Boston to run into not 1, but 2 "PJ fairy godfathers/godmothers" and got a few guitar picks, which were all new to me.
I said above that I gave a really cool super-stoked fan who was hearing disabled one of our Ed/23 picks and a few of you said "Good job", which I appreciate. That's the pick I thought I gave him. But in going through the pics on my phone I blew up the one of the fan holding the pick I gave him, and it was one of the "Eddie Vedder" within the Batman logo shape on one side, with "Kapow" on the other side, NOT this new Red Sox font one. Still a really cool pick, and to be honest, at the time I gave it to him, I didn't know that any of them were any more or less rare than the others, I was just psyched when I read this thead that I thought I gave him the rare one.
I know it's not that big a deal, but I care about accuracy and wanted to clear that up. Still, dude was incredibly excited to get the pick, and I gave him the one I thought was the coolest at the time, so it's all good!

On night 2 when Ed was on the Green Monster side of stage he had someone in security handing the EV/23 ones to people he was pointing out in the ADA section during one of the songs. Not sure if he gave any out anywhere else though. I was there with my friend who's in a wheelchair, a kind soul in front of us got one, turned around, asked my friend if he got one and he said no, so the guy just gave it to him. At the end of the show my friend said he wanted me to have it knowing what a big fan I am. I took him to his first PJ show/my 2nd (MSG2 in 2008) and we also went to MIA in Philly together in addition to countless other shows over the years. On my way out I bought him one of the PJ/Fenway wristbands to try to return the favor, though not at all possible. Never thought I could be so excited about getting a guitar pick, add to that an incredible show! Not sure if that generous guy who gave him/me the pick is on here, or if he remembers, but THANK YOU!!!

Is the Green Monster side the right side of the stage if you're facing the stage? (Sorry, not a Bostonian, have never been clear exactly what the "Green Monster" is!) Was this later in the show, like in the last 1/3 of the show? If so, yeah that guy did give a few more out to people on the rail near the ADA section. That makes sense that maybe Ed specifically asked that that crew person give picks to the ADA section, because it was kind of out of the blue that he ran down the front a little bit handing them out all of a sudden. Not that we minded of course!
