    Quick review.
    Was in 219, row A (slightly towards rear on Stone's side...basically behind Boom). Great seats for my not so great 430 number. Good crowd around me for the most part. Loved the setlist, even if it was kind of weird at times.
    The highlight of my night was hearing Breakerfall and knowing that BD's 9 yr old was across the venue freaking out.... :D

    Wow great show. Setlist was great and the guys were really on, think the crowd really helped after disappointing crowd in Newark. This was right up with the Hartford gig. Kudos to the 2 girls next to me who rocked out the whole show, made the night so much better with fans into it as much as you are.

    Can't wait for tonite, I'm sure the tank will be emptied.

    Sounds like the boys kicked ass, yet again!! Wish I was there! Saw PJ for the first time in 2003 at MSG and the crowd there was unbelievable as well. Anyone have video of Lukin, with string quartet. Love to hear that. One of my favorite songs.

    yep... we'll get the string quartet again tonight, but HOPEFULLY a la Philly they drop The End and do something else along with JB.

    Was it me or was security on the floor acting like rent-a-cops? We would step a foot over the tape on the floor and they would tap you to move in. They were giving EVERYONE a hard time, including
    hot chicks! They did this all the way until the very last song. Kinda kills the mood when youre jammin' and you keep getting yelled at!
    ...44 shows...and counting....

    Great show....always good energy. Setlist was decent, band wasn't as talkative as they usually are at MSG.....but impossible to not have a great time. Going tonight. Hoping to see some more out of the box stuff on last show of the tour!

    like others have said, if u werent there you cant appreciate how good this show was.

    the energy in MSG tonight was unreal. The band definitely felt it. its great when a band appreciates you as much as you appreciate them.

    that main set was killer, barely a second to catch your breath. i was dripping sweat 4 songs in. unthought known is already a PJ classic. SOLAT, Once, Porch...wow, def thought Once was closing the first encore.

    got to get my legs and voice back to do it again tonight !

    I thought the show is upper middle of the pack for me. Seated in section 10 row H 319xxx. Kinda far and the sound seemed a bit muddled. I love the elevated floor section though +1 msg.

    Love sometimes breakerfall last exit to open.

    It was awesome to see miracles in nyc... special thing. I am mine seems to have some significance too. Liked to see the jb dedication to our friend here and his dad.

    Made the horrible mistake of peeking at the setlist before the show. I looked away quick but my friend saw the whole thing. He swears to never do that again. Indeed got some was to close the main set.

    The crowd was decent. People were into the show but it really wasn't that wild and loud. I think tonight will be where its at.

    Preparty was fun. Met some awesome people who were fun to hang out with. You always have to love the mutual interest of pearl jam.


    Can't wait to do it again tonight, but better.

    Agree with others who said it was like taking ecstasy or psychedelics -- only you didn't-- the turbocharged energy of that amazing crowd plus the transformative power of the music, it's as mind-altering as any drug, in the best possible way. I've never been to Boston but in my experience there's nothing like the energy at MSG. Maybe 'cause I'm a New Yorker but when you put together two of the wonders of the world (PJ + NYC) something really explosive happens. Can't wait till tonight!

    Army Reserve blew my mind. Totally unbelievable. I always love SOLAT but for some reason last night it seemed to kick my ass into another dimension, it was so intense, I just loved it. Sometimes--> Breakerfall-->Last Exit -->Animal was a terrifically aggressive early sequence. Love Reign O'er Me was the best I've heard it.

    And say what you want, I always love Even Flow and last night was no exception.

    Those were probably the worst seats I've ever had, two rows up from the back of the floor, but I can't complain, it was still great.
