  • My only complaint is that I couldn't go to all four concerts....
    ... been there only Friday night, hands down the best Pearl Jam concert I've seen :)

    I think some people were complaining about the crowd (I think was awesome) and not the band. They gave everything, I am SO thankful, I wish to tell this in person to at least one of them, some day :oops:
    Makes me ache, makes me shake...
    ...is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?
  • What an amazing post. I completely agree with you.
    They played Out Of My Mind and Bugs! What's there to complain about?

  • The kind words are appreciated all..

    It was just something I thought needed to be said..



    Peace.

  • Fantastic post. I was at night 2 & 4. Great setlists, great performance by the band, great energy by the crowd. I truly do not understand some of the negative posts in other threads.

    I guess some people just had very unrealistic expectations, but I had lofty ones and they were exceeded. I don't know which night was better. I don't know if 2003 was better. All I know is that they were all phenomenal and unique. The band gave us their best, we gave them our best as a crowd, and I saw 18,000+ people having a great, great time. I guess there were a handful that felt otherwise...oh well - f*#k 'em.
