Potential for the 4 LA Shows

Since a run of four shows in the same small venue is pretty much unprecedented for Pearl Jam, do you think the band is planning anything special for the shows in L.A.? Perhaps something like they did in Boston in 2003, when they didn't repeat a single song until the last song of the tour and tried to get through most of their catalog during the four shows? Or the introduction of special guests?

The possibilities are endless...let's hear your theories!

    Yeah, that was sort of a buzz kill with Tim up there.

    I really hope so. But no matter what it will be special.

    I think we will get quite a few repeats, plus a couple special guests.

    EXACTLY!!!!!!! And then night 2 when they brought his punk ass out again, I was extremely bitter... He is a good actor, but needs to stick with acting/directing. He sucks at music!

    Hey Pearl Jam...
    How about calling on John Doe to sing the John Doe songs instead of Tim Robbins? I mean, at the Henry Fonda, John was in the house with his little daughters and 'Must Not Think Bad Thoughts' IS a John Doe song... it only makes sense, right? Maybe he can come up and help sing 'Golden State' or 'New World' or 'Must Not Think Bad Thoughts'. Give him a call... I'm pretty sure he'd be up for it.
