absolutely amazing!

I saw all 4 shows at the Spectrum and this show Friday night. And as amazing as this show was, I still do not think it compares to Philly 3.

Any idea when PJ is coming back to the US? Perhaps in the fall/winter??

Still trying to come up with a decent way of explaining what this weekend was like. Back in '03 after night 1, I remember walking around for a couple of hours afterward almost in a daze. It is similar to that, but it doesn't seem to want to go away. Here I am, with 2 and 1/2 days gone by and I am still soaking in it. Just an incredible experience.

I truly believe that our expectations were so great, and our energy level so high, that it was impossible for this show to be anything but spectacular.

I know we're in the SMALL minority, but I have to agree with you %100. Was it a hell of a show? YES it was, and i'm glad i was in the building to enjoy it. Can hardly wait to see them there AGAIN!!!

"It's not enough....I need more....nothing seems to satisfy. I don't want it. I just need it. To feel, to BREATHE to know I'm ALIVE"

That lyric from Tool is rather fitting.

My wound is still open from not getting into the building on Friday night, so no Youtube for me yet. It'll come soon.

But the Tool lyrics are absolutely fitting for me... After realizing that my original ticket was fake, I ran outside of MSG in complete and utter desperation and bought another ticket from a scalper. It was also fake. I almost never do stupid shit such as this, and if the situation were different and it was a friend who was running around like that, I would have been standing behind him or her, saying, "Make him show you the ticket. Make him walk up with you. That doesn't look like any ticket I've ever seen." But, no, I made a giant mistake.

As my friend who was with me that night explained, "Everyone has something that they just lose their mind for, do really stupid and extreme things for, without thinking. Drugs, gambling, whatever. Yours is Pearl Jam." So true.

....and the fact that the lyrics contain 2 PJ song titles they played at The Show on top of the meaning of the lyrics was just perfect to me.

Again... don't think anything will top Closing The Spectrum on Halloween, but this pair of shows kicked, both for their own reasons. As far as MSG2, by the time Better Man came up in Philly4, the crowd was spent... it was over 3 hours at that point, but don't get me wrong... it still was impressive crowd participation. However, in MSG we were INSANE.... holy shit... can't remember ever hearing the crowd in The Garden so loud. That was amazing. And having Why Go be the last song of the first set instead of the opening song (which it was in Philly) was a HUUUUUUUGE difference.... damn they tore that up. So many other highlights... thanks guys!

Only my 2nd PJ show (first was the night before) and all I can say is OH MY GOSH.
What a magical night.
It felt like nothing I've ever felt before- such a rush of emotions.

I made a thread sharing my experience in detail here, if you want to read:

I can't even believe that was real. Amazing, magical, incredible aren't even accurate enough to describe the sheer awesomeness of this show!

Can't concentrate at work!! Keep going back to MSG and I swear if I close my eyes I can feel the energy and get goosebumps, just thinking about it.

I am deeply sad it's over, but also have a sense of gratitude and belonging that is very powerful and hard to explain.
