Hard to Imagine in Lincoln

Please play Hard to Imagine in Lincoln, because honestly it is hard to imagine that Pearl Jam is coming to Lincoln.

It will be the first time PJ has played Nebraska since 1992!

    I'll be there! I saw pj in 92 the last time they played Nebraska... And I'll be there again! Can't wait. I'd love to hear hard to imagine and agree it fits beautifully under the circumstances. Also hoping for some binaural in Lincoln. :)

    Wish I was going to Lincoln but I was there for this version! Great song! Hope you guys get it! I was lucky enough to catch it in 98 and last year.
  • jd44jamminjd44jammin Posts: 66

    amount of shows and Lincoln is one of three this tour. Hope we get it!

    HUGE nerds Dave, no doubt about it.

    While I certainly hope you're right my friend, I did call Hard To Imagine to open in Moline.

    HTI is definitely hands down the #1 song that I'm dying to get. It's on me of my favorite PJ songs and sometimes rivals Release as my favorite. I'm absolutely dying to get it live.

    I'm all for it in Lincoln, even though I'm predicting it to open in Moline. Lincoln will be my first of four shows this tour, and what I think will be one of the dark horses of the tour. I'm all in for Hard To Imagine in Lincoln.

    HTI to open works for me too. Long Road to open would be cool too!

    I'll be at three shows this fall and am simply looking forward to some great set lists and shows. Will certainly catch a few of my favourites and deep cuts that I've yet to hear live!

    a month to go!

    and receive that legendary "HIGH FIVE" from YOU when it's played!!!

    I was so lucky to experience HTI last year in PHX as it was my white whale song and it over-exceeded my expectations. I would love to have it open, but would really love to hear it again live at any part of the show.

    I have been to 3 shows. I have never cried at any of them, but if Hard to Imagine is played, there is a strong chance a tear will come to the eye. Definitely my favorite song in the catalog.
