Can you feel it?
Best moment of the three shows from last week, by far for me, was about 4 minutes into Corduroy at MSG 2.
The whole building was bouncing and Ed starts yelling "Can you feel it, Can you feel it?" and then lets out a scream as the band tears it up.
There just seemed to be so much energy and anticipation building up to that moment and it was like Ed was lighting the fuse on a stick of dynamite. The crowd was so loud at that point that you could barely hear the band. The boots will never do it justice, which is a shame, but I'll never forget it.
What a show. Thank you Pearl Jam

My Favorite PJ song, at the best concert i've ever been to.
I was just the opposite: i didn't really care for the Corduroy start. Not when i'm 0-20 with No Release!!
Ya I would rather have just about anything over corduroy as an opener.

Agreed, Corduroy has always bugged me since I got a bunch of 06 boots (thanks to My main man FenwayFaithfull, thanks bro!) because they ALWAYS play it in the first 5 songs, no matter what, or at least like 8/10 times, it's not the song it's the lack of suprise and excitement, when I listen to 03 and eairlyer shows and they play it late mid set or in the encores it's totally fine and I rock out to it.
Yea, i was the same. I wanted to hear a opener i was dying to see. (traditional one like you said). But, i too, was into Corduroy a few seconds into it. Maybe you can understand the post now? Sorry i didn't explain it better>
he did that at msg 2 2003 and it was my favorite version of corduroy. i think it was topped after lats week though...
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.
"The waiting drove me mad..." Makes sense when it's a "near-opener" as you've been waiting a long time to see the show again.
And it was also his first time hearing it. Sometimes you gotta stop getting hung up on hoping for that one opener and just enjoy.
Oh and corduroy into hail hail is as good as it gets for me
For me, there are Pearl Jam moments that stick with me and you never know when or where they'll happen... like the Its Okay tag at Jones Beach in 2000 or Ed hanging from the mic cord in '98. And I always wonder when the next one will be. But the need for the next one to appear is a big part of why I keep going to multiple shows.
I just loved that confluence of the bouncing floor, with a crazed crowd, and Ed's reaction to it. It can't be recreated with a bootleg, but it still makes me smile thinking about.
