When people ask me what is my favorite Pearl Jam show, I always say......... "The next one"
my answer is "the one i have tickets for"!!!!!!! & Philly fucking 3!!!!!!!
So Philly 3 still tops Boston 2010 as your fave show? Man this boxset can't get here fast enough. Philly 3 is the only show I haven't heard out of the 4.
Someone who wasn't at MSG starts a thread saying the concert they went to is better than all the others is nothing more than someone seeking attention. And what's worse is seeing people who were not even on this continent during the tour backing up the OP calling the OP's show as the best because they are friends I'm sure. How the hell would either know? 1 went to 1 show on the whole tour while the other was across the ocean. Ya gotta just laugh I guess. To the person who wondered what someone who went to all the shows thought, MSG 2 was my favorite and Boston was not even my second favorite, but everyone of them blew my mind. Pearl Jam is better right now than any band has ever been before!
This is how I rank the shows I went too:
MSG2
Boston
Hartford
MSG1
Though I loved the Newark setlist a lot too.

Youngster and Crazy Breed, wish you both coulda been there with us last night in MSG. It was spectacular. Just got home and I'm going to bed. NYC is way too fast paced for me.

This is how I rank the shows I went too:
MSG2
Boston
Hartford
MSG1
Though I loved the Newark setlist a lot too.
That's how I have them ranked too. But there was something about Hartford. The guys were just all really having a good time. All of them were laughing and smiling the whole night. And Stone laying on the ground near Mike!! Eddie shooting Mike in the head during State. Had a really great vibe.
Boston kicked both MSG shows asses single handedly!!! Bruce Lee style!!!!thanx for the love fellas!!!!!!!
someone had to say it...who better than me!!!!
Newark
thanks Pearl Jam....every show i saw this tour kicked ass!! you fuckers amaze every time! thank you so much!!! & don't be strangers....i miss you alreadyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!
& thanx again for Crown of Thorns!!! I will never forget it!!!
As much as I try not to read these threads I can't resist. I went to Boston and loved it. I also have never been to MSG and hope to experience it at some point. MSG2 looked great....along with all the shows on this tour!
On a side note I really wish the obnoxious Boston/NY rivalry didn't carry over to this band. It would be nice to see the two cities come together to celebrate great music without having to constantly one up each other.

i don't see how anyone can just read a setlist and judge a show. you had to be there.
if you went to all 3 and you liked boston best, kudos
i personally am convinced that msg 2 2010 is the best live show i have personally ever seen in my life. may not be the case for any of you, but in all honesty, the shows i've seen are the only ones that matter to me
silly east coasters :roll: had a great time, but could not get out of there fast enough once it was over, though.
Cute and smart you are....MSG 2 !

save your armchair Sigmund Freud for someone else....i'm not looking to draw attention...especially yours...for someone who lives in Hawaii yet claims they are at every show...wow...you must be rich!! you own the Dole empire or something?...or maybe you are just talking out your ass? either way i don't give a fuck if i was there...i care more about the songs played than how loud the crowd is...sure the crowd energy is a big part of the show..but the biggest part FOR ME, is the songs....so all i have to do is read the set list to make up my mind...and if i want to come here and speak my fucking opinion on the matter then that is my right and if you don't like it that's your right...but if you are gonna come up in here talking shit then you are barking up the wrong mother fucking tree and can take that shit elsewhere.
What ever i'm not about to get into a pissing contest if you feel you have to state that with a thread that's ok ,Eric all i can say is you had to be there to know what the whole buzz is about, looking at the set list does nothing for this show it was about the vibe .....just enjoy what you saw in person and let everyone else do the same each show was special in their own way ....

Jose...you know how i am...this shit was done in jest to fuck with my NY peeps....but certain people don't understand that and felt the need to pop shit...so i in return needed to speak my mind...i am happy with my 3 shows and i don't give a fuck about anything else...there are things going on in my life that are much more important than Pearl jam or fucking set lists...you know what i mean...(much love to you dude)
