-the awesome video montage of special spectrum moments they played before the boys came out to THE ROCKY MUSIC!!! i love rocky almost as much as i love PJ so this was like a dream come true. :P
-all those yesterdays. that is the one song i wanted to hear more than anything in these four shows and it sounded incredible live!
-the crowd energy was amazing and the band fed off that. they commented several times on what a great crowd it was. my favorite was a disgruntled concert goer who was clearly new at this complaining "i came to see pearl jam and i couldn't even hear pearl jam".
-the joking about the rumors going around the pit about stone leaving the band. ed joked that stone wanted out to take care of his family and stuff and since they could only play 2 songs without him they begged him to rejoin...and he agreed only if he could sing...intro to mankind!
-that might have been the best version of black i heard!
-ed's several references to the spectrum and how they want to do it proud and are honored to be the last ones to play there. said he heard bruce tore the roof off the place and they weren't just going to be there as the clean up crew.
-ed saying how it's always exciting when they come to philly but he can't believe all the stuff going on this week with the world series and the spectrum coming down and halloween... and the transit strike...lol
-RIVAL!!! GHOST!!!
and finally.... ED SAYING THEY ARE GOING TO PLAY EVERY SONG THEY KNOW BY 2 AM SATURDAY. AAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!
there's so much more but that's what comes to mind right now. i'm so happy there are three more days of this!!!!
Oh, to own these boots..............I cannot wait...........
I'm so fucking jealous...
I'll ride the wave where it takes me...
That was one of the highlights of the night....hearing this.

First of all, my seats were great -- thanks Ten Club! Section 201 was far better than I expected with my 400,000+ number.
Social Distortion sounded great. I am glad we were there in plenty of time to hear them.
PJ was -- what can I say that has not been said before? The guys were awesome. I thought the highlight of the night was "Immortality" -- not one of my personal favorites, but as my husband said, "It is now!" -- Absolutely amazing, mind-blowing version of that song.
Other high points: "Ghost"! I get that song a lot on my iPod when I am running, and I have to say I think it is one of PJ's most underrated songs. "Just Breathe" and "The End" were lovely -- I teared up a little listening to them. My ten-year-old, who sat with me, was ecstatic because the second encore opened with "Daughter," "LROM" and "Black" -- three of his favorites.
Oh, and I thought "The Fixer" sounded excellent live.
Eddie's comments about the Stone rumors were pretty funny -- Scrabble championship, etc.
Thanks to the people sitting near us who were so cool to my son. Thanks also to the poor woman standing/sitting next to me, for her understanding; I bumped into her a lot. :oops: Warning to those sitting near me: I ran eight miles this morning, and I am not running on Wednesday, so watch out! :oops:
We are going to need to seriously hydrate and take our vitamins to make it to Sunday! We all are looking forward to the remaining shows, though.
and still jonesing for another show....
"the waiting drove me mad..."
Oh my... some rarities, lots of rockers from the start to finish.. And only night 1. Another expirement of going through the whole catalog over the 4 shows was declared so we can bet remaining 3 will be awesome. at least i got tickets to 2 of them. overstimulated to say the least.
Finally got that "One for the Thumb"!!! Got the "Six Pack". Now we're on a "Stairway to Seven"
Some words when spoken...can't be taken back.
"Seeing a brick wall straight ahead and stepping on the gas." Eddie...Pittsburgh 6/23/06
We are so lucky to have them playing Philly right now!! I forgot how small the spectrum was, it is the greatest place to see a show.
And 10club your the best, my seats ROCKED!!!
PJ sound: amazing
song selection: awesome (fed off unenthusiastic crowd)
crowd pitiful...sucked, terrible, very little energy, felt like a presidential gala at $100 per plate(nose in air) or a wake, where were 400 level people, no sell out.
the show is as good as the crowd and the energy, PJ held back considering they have 4 shows in 5 nights and another tomrw, the crowd was unenergetic. i was in aisle in 103 i turned around all night to see a morgue of fans sittting standing around unenthusiastic. sorry but its true, i even asked tommy the pit security and he agreed the crowd was a let down. he said he staying home tomrw to watch the phils the, pj pansies dont need him. said springsteen crowd was much more "lively" hahah soccer moms and beer belly dads.... weak!!
my hi-lite was dancin around all the drips standing there looking dreary eyed at the stage- me black button down with glasses in aisle 103
for those that were there: hope u had a great time, for those that werent: u didnt miss
much
see u tomrw, look for me
ps: dirty rats at tony lukes closed early, my buddy said they didnt want to serve the PJ crowd until 1 or 2 am, im callin for a boycott....no tony lukes closed at 11:53am tonight
