    I counted 101, but I get confused after 100

    most bands dont even do 25 songs per night and that is the SAME set list.

    PJ averaged 25 different songs per night

    WOW!!!
  • Im very happy with the how many songs they got through :D
    I wonder why they didnt get through many of the openers though.

    No cant keep, release, of the girl, long road, sometimes.
    Also it would have been cool if they could have got brain of J, sad and LBC in there somewhere.

    will make a great set of bootlegs.
    ...The Moon is Rollin' Round....
  • Can't wait for the boots. I'm in awe just looking at these setlits. This band loves us.
  • MayDay10MayDay10 Posts: 11,787
    WOW!

    Cant believe all the songs we got. Couldnt quite do it, but what an accomplishment playing all they did. And as tight as they were.


    Its so insane how lucky we are that our favorite band puts this much effort into this shit. They could come in, collect the money and play the same shit. but they dont. they make the tickets worth every penny. its amazing the effort they must put into this
  • This is just unreal ... I went through the list and counted 105 unique songs played over the 4 nights!!
    (I included "Little Wing" and the "Star Spangled Banner," each of which were covered by Mike during his "Yellow Ledbetter" solos.)

    totally blown away.
    Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line.
    Oh rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train.

    Pearl Jam. Value for money!

    Been so hooked following this tour (via the internet sadly) and this group of shows is simply amazing! BOOTS!
    Nature drunk and High

    Of coursse they could have done it... they just didn't want to alienate 3/4 of the crowd maybe?
  • JimmyVJimmyV Boston's MetroWest Posts: 19,344
    Wow, I can't believe this already updated through Night 4! Thanks again for keeping track!

    What a great bunch of shows. Happy for and jealous of everyone who got to partake.

  • i think you have to include Bugs in your list.... just saying.

    how about that?
    -one thing to remember, always have a good time, all the time
  • Wow. The list of songs that DIDN'T play is rather disappointing. Surely they could have done away with some of the repeats. :?

    Well, the Backspacer repeats are justified since they are promoting the album.
    The Ten and "Hits" repeats last night, while heavy, are also understandable... you have to play to the WHOLE crowd.

    But yeah... we really didn't need 3 Evolutions, 2 Whippings, 2 Rearviewmirrors... they should have been traded in for some of the big missing items like Sad, Comatose, Oceans, Brain of J and Breakerfall.

    But that's nitpicking... these are still momentous, legendary shows.

    I was curious and added some numbers

    - average of songs played per Philly show - 32.75
    - number of different songs played at the Philly shows - 101
    - number of songs played from studio albums (not including Merkinball, Miscellaneous, Lost Dogs, recent common covers) - 83 out of 110
    - number of songs played from studio albums and Lost Dogs – 91 out of 133

    The numbers are even more impressive if you had the following 28 songs not played in Philly but played at least once during this tour (since August 8, 2009)
    - Brain of J
    - Red Mosquito
    - Long road
    - Jazz Odyssey
    - Kick out the Jams
    - Sometimes
    - Comatose
    - Hunger strike
    - Interstellar overdrive
    - Mountain song
    - I believe in miracles
    - Big wave
    - Breakerfall
    - Of the Girl
    - So you want to be a rock and roll star
    - Driven to tears
    - Trow your hatered down
    - Hard to imagine
    - Fuckin’ up
    - Come Back
    - The needle and the damage done
    - Leaving here
    - Sleight of hand
    - Brother
    - Angie
    - You got to hide you love away
    - Soldier of love
    - Sad

    Total number of different songs played during this tour - 129.

    Great, great post, Alain. Thanks for the summary stats!

    It is hard to feel bad at all about what they didn't achieve because what they did achieve is so stunning.

    I would have fucking loved to have been at every single night, easily the best 4 date run i have ever seen BUT

    Its criminal they missed long road.
  • GoatboyGoatboy Posts: 509
    release, can't keep, of the girl and long road all could've been played as openers before kicking it into gear...this surprised me very much. really though, i can't knock 'em for that. they did a kick ass job at trying:)
  • great post
    we all have songs that didn't get played that we wish they had but what they did achieve is pretty amazing

    i just couldn't imagine a slow opener after blaring the rocky music. think they needed to start these shows with rockers!

    Agreed. The segue from Rocky>Animal was quite effective on Night 2.
  • soop, once again thanks for this thread....so interesting to read and now se it complete. pj did a STELLAR job, working to please ALL fans. while sure, there were a few tunes i'd have preferred over others - of course! - i was totally, 100%, absolutely pleased, pleased, pleased with the setlists 10.30 and 10.31!!! i could not ask for better nights of music. 8-) great times - well done pj! :thumbup: :clap::mrgreen:

    agreed!
    if there was one *complaint* my husband has had over the years in him seeing live pj, he was/is always of the opinion that they should open with rockers, he dislikes slow openers. too bad he wasn't in philly with me... :lol: hahahaha. but i did let him know and i thought it was great! totally worked!
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    Looking over the song stats, I noticed that of the songs they didn't play in Philly, they could make one hell of a show....I'd pay good money to see a set list comprised of (and not necessarily in this order):

    Oceans
    Release
    WMA
    Indifference
    Long Road
    Sometimes
    Red Mosquito
    Who You Are
    Brain Of J
    God's Dice
    Thin Air
    Of The Girl
    Sleight Of Hand
    Can't Keep
    Thumbing My Way
    Comatose
    Marker In The Sand
    Comeback
    Man Of The Hour
    Leatherman
    Sad
    Alone
    Leaving Here
    Undone
    Fatal
    Hard To Imagine
    Wash
    Brother
    Fuckin' Up
    I Believe In Miracles

    To me, those songs would make one hell of a set list....even though I've gotten 7 of those songs at the last 2 shows I've been able to attend. It would be an eclectic show sans many hits....but, it'd be awesome as well.
