Now I know how this isn't gonna go down well with some of the people on this board, but, whats with all the elitist attitudes??? Just because a few people walked away from the show dissappointed cause they didn't hear their favourite Triple M songs, doesn't mean they are the lowest forms of pearl jam fans and how dare they go to a pearl jam show and form an opinion of what they saw...

I love the band and have seen them play both here and overseas, but I would never judge a person they way some people are being judged through these fanviews. It's reading comments like these that kinda make you embarrassed to be associated with these 'purist' fans...

Having said that, Both Adelaide and Perth look like they got great setlists and I'm looking forward to what the band will pull out tomorrow night in Melbourne.

Have to agree!! Like all great Art ....beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or the ear

Agreed..some people just reeeeally want to hear a particular song live..i had a few 'particulars' on my list before i ever seen PJ live, i still have a few 'particular' songs off that list left,..Wishlist, In Hiding, Let Me Sleep, ..there's just something about certain songs that makes you want to hear them live..eg: Eds vocals in In Hiding is something i would love to hear live, he has such a mad range of vocal changes in that song it gives me chills..
Wishlist..it's just a fucking awesome song..2 lines in particular.."I wish i was a neutron bomb, for once i could go off" SHIT YESS..that is me me me..stupid customers and having to keep my stupid calm!!! lol and.." I wish i was the full moon shining of a Camaros Hood" That is a beautiful line, and can be interpreted into many metaphors.
Let me sleep..well it's all about the music there..no lyrics needed, great lyrics, but rather sad! (Thought you burned not froze for your sins, im so tired..and cold)
Some songs just make people feel a certain way, and they have every right to be hopeful of hearing a particular song and feeling a lil bit disappointed if they dont..they will eventually get over it.
Adelaide was such an awesome show that i find myself nodding and smiling when i think about it..then i think..grrr no Wishlist ,with a frown..then i think Woooooh, State of Love and Trust , with a twinkle in my eye! Then i think Melbourne, and it's like WHOAHHHH..did that really happen or was it just an awesome dream!!! Nah wasn't a dream otherwise i would of heard Wishlist ROFL!!!!!

Review in today's Sunday Mail in Adelaide:

5 Stars and last line was "Gig of the year so far"!!!

Awesome....good to see our music writers know their shit.

Urgh, I never buy that shitty thing but someone text me saying there was a great revue from Tuesday so I went to buy a copy and they'd run out. I still haven't read it! Well given it's mid-November, I can't see anyone topping Tuesday night's performance in a hurry!! Oh, hold on, Isn't Britney still to come? haha!

how can britney top it, as she aint performing at all she is just turning up to get paid

Sorry, my sarcasm doesn't come out as well online as in person!

Oh my god; the concert was friggin' awesome!!! So much better outside; and the weather was perfect. Such a great set list too. I introduced my dad to the music of Pearl Jam a few years ago and he came along for his first PJ concert. He turned to me at the end and thanked me for making him come (he was a little worried he was going to be too old). I'm so glad I was able to share the experience with someone who has introduced so many difference music styles to me over the years

I almost cried when Eddie came out to sing with Ben Harper. I can't pinpoint one particular song that was a standout; the whole concert was a standout.

Can't wait for the next tour; don't leave it so long between drinks.

Oh I am showing this post to my mum! She LOVES Pearl Jam, she knows all the songs, she listens to the bootlegs over and over saying she wishes she was there, but every time they come she chickens out because she thinks she's too old, then after each concert she wishes she'd gone! If they come again, I'm not taking no for an answer!!

First time I got to hear Release played live!!! And No Way. Awesome show. Really loved the venue too (got my pic of Sir Don's statue...)

Melbourne was such an awesome show full of goodies and little bonuses... but that Adelaide setlist... if I had written a perfect setlist for the show in my home town, this would have been it! Oh, maybe with Off He Goes added somewhere...!

We do miss Luke the Uke though! Bring Luke back in 2012!

Loved lining up with the Ten Clubbers each show, met some awesome people and some awesome friends, cheers guys for making the time go faster!

Adelaide was amazing! You can probably called me biased though considering Adelaide is my hometown and the only other show i went to on this tour was Sydney, but everything about it was perfect! The venue, the weather, the Ten Clubbers i met, the setlist and of course Pearl Jam themselves.

Me and my friend who i went with made a flag and took it with us hoping maybe just maybe the guys would see it. Low and behold, at the end of Yellow Ledbetter, Eddie signals to a security guard to get it off us and give it to him. Ed asked if we made it and when we said yes he said "its beautiful!" he then took it and wore it like a cape. The blood, sweat and tears (and a tonne of swearing!) that went into making it paid off big time!

Heres a link to some of my photos (the flag included!) if anyone wants to have a suss!

Wasnt expecting.... but was very appreciative when he stopped the show and gave it to the meathead fuck.....


Spent the rest of the night with arms locked together with complete strangers..... making sure the young girls & short blokes didnt get crushed...

I told the bloke "how do you feel now??? Eddie Vedder just made a C*nt out of you in front of 20,000 ppl".... He had no comeback.....

A coupla dickheads... But a great show.... All 10C fans lookin out 4 each other

Peace

p.s At the end of each song... i made sure I clapped hard enough to "accidently" smack the goose in the head "several times"..... hahahaha

meet the asshole after the show, and he was a tool

how funny was that - when everyone turned around at live on light square and saw the "arsehole". all had a good laugh!

That's silly. There was a man and woman aged in their 60s in front of me at the Brisbane show. They were there with their grandson who was a fan. The little boy got given a setlist at the end of the night and was thrilled.
