    Fucking indescribable. In white castle right now as I type this. Crowd was great. Setlist was the "hits" imho. I expect tomorrow to be the rarities! And rock just as hard!
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    EASILY THE BEST SHOW IVE EVER BEEN TO IN MY LIFE. THE ENERGY FROM THE CROWD WAS INCREDIBLE. NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE. MIND BLOWING. THE BAND JUST FED RIGHT OFF IT. THE ENCORES FROM THIS SHOW SIMPLY CANNOT BE TOUCHED. UNBELIEVABLE!!! I DON'T KNOW HOW ELSE TO PUT IT. A RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE. I DON'T KNOW HOW TOMORROW NIGHT CAN EVEN COMPARE. THIS BAND IS ON A WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL.

    Best. Show. Ever.

    I dont care if you want to talk about the setlist, but, if you were in the building you will be changed.

    My 22 show and i feel like i took ecstasy. Nothing will ever be as good as tonight, it will be hard for tomorrow to be better. The energy, the tightness, the crowd (OMG) and the music. The fans around me, everything was perfect. I never, and i mean never, thought i would witness a show this good. Other shows may have been great before (Philly, Mansfield, Boston, State College) but this was something that can never be repeated.

    Thank you pearl jam, ten club, new york city, and god for allowing me to be a part of what i was tonight.

    Was there tonight, and can't say how awesome it was. Wasn't able to go to Newark but I was at Hartford and both were very different shows but freakin' fantastic. Unfortunately, the POSTERS were sold out like lighting at MSG. I am going tomorrow night as well. Any one going early can scoop me a poster and meet me?? One PJ fan to another?!?!?! PM ME! Long Live PEARL JAM!

    Energy(crowd) was unreal tonight. First 4 songs were amazing. Ed was funny as always. Highlight of the night was mankind and indifference and love reign o'er me and wishing pete a happy bday and I believe in miracles . This band is our generation of the who. The only part of msg that was noticeable not sold out was behind the stage .

    And one more thing. to anyone who bashes this setlist or anyother just remember how often this band changes up their setlist everynight and how much they enjoy each city and fans. Go see a shit band like U2 if you wanna see rare songs :roll seeing this band tonight made me realize that.


    Can't wait for another garden party tomorrow
    Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
    Sammi: Wanna just break up?

  • fanofzsfanofzs NYC Posts: 509
    What a great time! Band played terrific. Great energy from the crowd as well. See you tomorow... or later today!
  • Rollingstone123Rollingstone123 Posts: 222
    MSG MAGIC! Crowd was insane- energy just right. psychedelic yet we didnt take the psychedelics tonight!!!! guards were cool with puffing. Setlist was diverse! Miracles!!! Awesome. Tomorrow night will top it- They were just warming up. Over all best show out of 4 we've seen so far. Hartford was 2nd to this. Thank you for singing Stone!!!! Mankind, gotta love it. Psyched for tomorrow!!!! May the gods be with you!!!!!

    any show that has Indifference makes it amazing. Add Lowlight and enough said.

    Good job MSG.

    Great looking show.

    Poster, not so much! LOL

    Great show. I expect some rarer songs for MSG but the setlist was good anyway. I finally heard State of Love and Trust and Mankind. Energy was much better than Newark. Love Reign O'er Me and I Believe in Miracles were amazing covers. Band was spot on besides the false start for Crazy Mary. Tonight was great but I think tomorrow night will top it. Oh and I can't believe that I got You Are 3 shows in a row now and Indifference 2 in a row!

    So despite my high 10c number I ended up in section 111 row B, and all the times you hear Ed talk about feeling the place shake I always thought was an exaggeration, but during the beginning of Evolution then Jeremy you can feel the floor move :shock:
  • mavimavi Posts: 941
    What a night... Crowd energy was off the charts and the band super tight. I expect a more mixed set tomorrow but Porch was amazing & I got You Are & Indifference twice in a row :)

    This is one bootleg I can't wait for. THANK YOU PEARL JAM!!!

    I can't believe how many fanviews look like this for each show. I was at Hartford and Boston and could say the same for both. I think we are blessed to get any of these shows. They are easliy at the top of their game right now. Good times, good times!

    My 17th show . . . a special one certainly in my top 3 including Mansfield III 2003 . . .

    Great 10C tix a few rows side stage from Stone. Thought the setlist was genius - a slow build to full throttle - sort of like one of ed's ocean waves - it built, crested then slammed home. Don't understand the comments about lack of rarities. Breakerfall? Mankind? Lukin w/a string quartet? Army Reserve? I Believe in Miracles? Then a massive attack at the end which yes focused on more familiar Ten/Yield era stuff but since when is this supposed to be disappointing?

    Interesting side note: The Olsen twins showed up and sat directly in front of me and my brother in law (first PJ show - he appreciated it but it is too heavy for his tastes). They had a couple fatass bodyguards and sat most of the show, too cool for school. It was ironic to see them in their designer jeans that probably cost a grand and passing around lip gloss during the show while our guys are up there in boots and t-shirt and jeans singing about everyday sacrifice in songs like Army Reserve. Anyway, I'll write a separate post on this and throw up a picture too. Thank you PJ, MSG, NYC.

    "Army Reserve"! Finally! And now I can check off "Pearl Jam." 41 shows, and then there were three:

    "Around The Bend"
    "Bugs"
    "I'm Open"

    Please, please, please give me the trifecta tomorrow night!

    Can anyone answer this-- I counted 34 songs on the set list, and "Lukin" was not one of them. They played 33 songs, including "Lukin." What two songs were on the set list but not played?
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.
