    awesome show. That was my first time at Nationwide and that place is like a Palace. You could eat off the floor at that joint. Great show. Hopefully Cleveland tops it though..

    it is a beautiful arena isn't it? I've been to a hanful of event there, mainly hockey games, but I am not sure I have been to a nicer arena.
    anyone recall if thats been done before?

    I've not heard it or heard of him adding that part( didn't). but thats not saying much.

    My nephews drove out with ten club seats- 30 rows center, and said it was great! So happy for you Columbus! We can't wait until Cleveland and hometown Buffalo now. Hope they do some Riot Act and Binual. I'll take anything though. Wow, It will be amazing no matter what they play!

    I've been waiting so long for oceans and never thought they would play it in Columbus of all places. Only 6 songs left on the list of album songs to see live. So thankful I picked this as my only show this tour.

    Same here, It took me to show #40 to hear Oceans, and thus every regular album song. I still have 5 lost dogs to hear.... BRY, Brother, Fatal, Undone, and Education. I thought for sure we would get Brother and BRY in Philly last October. Oh well!

    Last nights show was amazing. The guys really show no signs of slowing down. This was my 10th show and first time in Columbus. Was pleasantly surprised by the crowd. That place was very full and was totally rocking (except for those upper bowl folks sitting on their butts!). Highlights included Oceans - a totally unexpected opener in landlocked Ohio!, Grievance, Faithful, Marker in the Sand, Alone, Comeback, and Spin the Black Circle. Oh, and Mike's preset was pretty awesome. I don't know what to make of his song about his son - not the best lyrics, but very heartfelt and awesome.

    The introduction of Pearl Jam religion was hilarious. Thou shalt not Twitter!

    I was curious what Ed would do with Evolution when he got to "2010 watch it go to fire." He didn't change the lyric but made a little hilarious gesture where he sang the line, then feigned looking shocked, looked at his watch (as if to check the date), and then did this exaggerated shrug like "oh well". I love watching his subtle interactions with the crowd. One of the best parts of TenClub seats. Thanks 10C!

    Ok, more from me. This past year has been quite the emotional rollercoaster. Approximately 11 months ago my wife , out of the blue with no hint that something was wrong, wanted to seperate. And 2 1/2 months later we were divorced. It's been a struggle but these guys did what they always do and helped me through it. Last night was a small release that way. But it reinforced what I've felt all along. I love that woman.

    To go from Oceans as the opener, to GTF, to corduroy(my all time fav) to Got Some? Fuck me!!!! Faithfull , Small Town, Amongst the Waves? You're killin me guys!!!

    Encore one, Just Breathe, to Black w/ we DIDN'T belong together(?) , into SOLAT? Talk about your 1-2 then a KO punch!!!!

    LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!!!!! Resting a bit easier from this and I CANNOT wait til next time. Please don't make it another 7 years between visits. Hope we showed you the Columbus Hospitatlity. AN dyou're welcome anytime!

    pretty good show. heard a few new songs like alone, oceans, faithful, and once. crowd was INFINITELY better than that snore-fest in chicago last year. also, i am the harshest critic on eddies voice and he sounded a lot better last night than he did in 2008-09 but still has a ways to go before he gets back to 2006 caliber.

    Awesome show as everyone has stated. From start to finish they sounded great and provided tons of energy. Saw them in Chicago in August and they only played Got Some, The Fixer and Supersonic from Backspacer. Last night's show had a great mix of old and new with Got Some, The Fixer, Just Breath, Unthought Known and Amongst the Waves. Being a huge Reds fan it was cool to see Bronson Arroyo at the show...nice call on State of Love and Trust. Also was a great final set with Come Back, Once, Hail-Hail Crazy Mary, Alive and Yellow Ledbetter. I thought Chicago was an awesome show with 2+ solid hours of great PJ tunes and I have to say the Columbus show was as good, if not better!
  • Amazing setlist + pumped up crowd + great band = Unbelievable show.

    LOVED finally getting to hear Oceans, Once, and Alone. Lots of great rockers. Once seemed a lot slower. Maybe a different version?

    Can't wait for Sunday!!
  • This was only the second show I've been to (Philly 10/28/09 also) and the first one I could get 10club tickets for. I drove from Harrisburg, PA, about 7 hours one way. Totally worth it.

    I was in Section 5, Row A, so dead center 26 rows back, and still had a great view. I absolutely LOVED the setlist. Not much I can say that hasn't already been said, so here's one of the few pictures I took that actually turned out.

    Hmm, guess I'll be giving that boot another spin(so to speak). Just hit me in a particular spot.

    Great show, great crowd. This was show #13 for me. I can't really rank them anymore, but this would be near the top of my list.

    My seats were the best i've ever had (Floor 2, Row 15) with a member number of 270xxx. Seems like i lucked out as i've seen a lot of people with much better numbers than me who had worse seats. Eddie seemed in great spirits and did a lot of interacting with the crowd. He also danced more than i ever can remember seeing before.

    As for the set, i was blown away by Oceans, it's been on my wishlist but never thought it would show up here. Alone was also unexpected. Throw in Faithful, and the kick ass 1st encore and it was a great set. The band seemed tight, sounded great, and had lots of energy. Looking forward to Cleveland and Buffalo in a few nights.

    I'm new enough that I don't even know how to find my number, haha. Although, I think I actually let my membership expire right after I bought those tickets, so the way I understand it, when I renew it my seniority will start over at 0 again.

    I'm guessing I was a lucky draw. I actually freaked out a little bit when they handed me the tickets and I saw Row A, thinking I might be close enough to catch some sweat splash. Then when I saw the way the floor was laid out I calmed down a little, but they were still great seats.

    And the camera didn't do a bad job, but from that distance, when you're zoomed in that much the slightest bit of shaking will blur your picture to bejesus and back. And between my own excitement and my brother bouncing up and down next to me, there was a LOT of shaking. If I had practiced with it beforehand I might have found a way past the autofocus on people's hands, too. But I'm still very happy with my memories. Here's a couple more, if anyone's interested.

    Another great set again. Nine songs from Avocado/Backspacer and no complaints from anyone shows the sheer quality of this band. Oceans gets the annual dust off almost as far from the sea as possible? Lucky bunch, hope you all had a good time. Great calalog to choose from now and these shows are proving the neglected cities still know how to have a good time. Obviously these are just warm up shows for Europe though! :D

    text i received from a fellow 10c'er who was at all 3 shows

    "KC and STL were bunk compared to tonite"
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
