"COMEBACK" at MSG2 for 1st timer who lost her sister

I never request songs, but this would make my sister in law Lisa's night. It will be her first time seeing Pearl Jam. Her older sister JoAnn was a huge Pearl Jam fan and saw them many times. Unfortunately JoAnn died 3 years ago scuba diving, heart anneurism. Avocado came out around that time and I burned it for her so she could listen to "Come Back". That song touched her immensely and Ed's vocals brought her comfort during a time in which she could barely get out of bed each morning. She was devasted even moreso because she had lost both parents in her mid twenties.....her sis was her life to her.

SO

I do not like demanding that the band play a certain song, but I am hoping this request is granted because I know she would feel as if her sister was right there with her on that night. Hope it happens.

THANKS!

    Good luck for your regest and I hope Lisa feels better. I'd love to hear this song live at MSG and dedicate it to all those we lost way before their time...

    I got a feeling you will hear this. It's funny, I was thinking about this song yesterday and played it for the first time in a long time. It really brings some emotions out and is one of the bands best.

    I sure do hope the band gets the message and plays it for her. That would be so nice!

    Good work asking for it for her.

    Good luck :thumbup:
    peace,

    I'm sorry for the loss. We all have our special reasons to hear a special song, hopefully you get yours. I'm going to be 0 for 43 if they don't play Oceans that night. Hopefully you don't have to wait as long as I have!

    I realize songs can be interpreted different ways, I always thought comeback was more about "breaking up" than death?

    That request I feel will be granted, for good reasons. I've never heard it live. They started to play it in Philly, then stopped, and never went back to it.

    You have a good reason to request this but i would have wanted them to play this anyway. BUMP!

    funny thing is, if they DO play it, she is so LOUD that we will all hear her screaming THANK YOU from section 311
    :lol:

    every show I have been to that they played it, I have called her so she can hear it over the phone. So to hear it live would truly be a gift for her.
