This show was awesome! I loved the setlist and mellow atmosphere on stage, love the simple backdrops and the beautiful venue but the best part was when he was messing around with the signer...also loved the joke about the fan with the mirror ball shirt! Great great great show!

Great performance and setlist tonight. The crowd was great for the most part but there just so many drunk assholes there tonight that were extremely distracting. It seemed like every song there were 50-100 people staggering up the aisles on the floor and couldn't find their seats when they came back.

agreed! And the loudmouths totally ruined Sleepless Nights when Ed asked to turn the microphone's off....the entire place was silent at the start....then a drunken fool yells "EDDIE" followed by "YOU'RE SO SEXY" ....by the end of the song I could barely hear them.

I was seated right in front of this drunk chic, all night all I heard was Eddie i Love You! Irritating!

What row where you in ? About two rows up from where I was somebody kept yelling that.
The show was amazing, took my daughter who had a blast. She got to hear the song she wanted to, which oddly enough was Off He Goes. Great set list, great venue and great seats. Nice to see Ed make it back to Detroit. Glen was awesome I had no idea what to expect going in but his set was great, definitely going to be buying some of his stuff.

LOL!! He did say that.... Carie, the interpreter, looked at me for a second (kinda in shock that he was talking to her) when he said that and I said just flip with both fingers and she turned around and flipped both fingers at him. He just laughed, kinda like "oh yeah it's the same...."

I was in row J in F3 so we were no where near each other, must have been several people there yelling that.

2 shows
many miles were traveled to make the dreams come true, again
ticket price good, considering glen was worth something!
10c seats surprisingly below average, something to think about next time
but...didn't matter where the seat was, really honestly
mostly i'm just happy sitting beside 10c peeps cause we
all know why we are there!
if people were obnoxious i would demand a usher find me a new
seat or take care of my problem. yup
had minimal troubles where i was. i get fun, and standing up, respectfully, when it's time
ed has got so much talent it's nutty
good mix up of songs and the dude can read a room,
as good as anyone i've ever seen.
loved how the show was broken up into parts
twas super nice being in a++ cooshy venues
ed made buckets of cash on the merch-line ups
in sane. peeps buying like crazy
ed should sell bootlegs cause he's a bootleg fan, and knows
got to see/hear immortality both nights. nuff said there
and the into the wild stuff was still my fave moments
love that movie and album
and doing let my love open the door made it all so right
and, of course, moth cause that movie is so choice, and the song, well ummmm oh my...
and
and
and

thanks ed!

He had just finished playing "Long Nights" with Glen when he started joking around with the interpreter. He tried to play "Setting Forth" but stopped because he said something about he couldn't start a song after just telling a woman he didn't know to fuck off. I don't know what was funnier...the interaction with the interpreter or Glen's explanation of "Panties In The Fountain".

Great picture!

Amazing night!!! I was 17 rows off center stage!! Eddie was into the venue, the crowd, and the mystique that is the motor city. Refering to the fact that someone told him before the show

Hey, its the motor city so make sure you GIVE IT SOME GAS!!!!

and he sure did.!!! After small town Eddie said that that the singing from our crowd during the song was

the best moment on the tour so far!!!!

Version of immortality was all so inspiring....also, the show poster references one of the greatest NHL franchise the Detroit Red Wings, with a picture of an exausted chris chelios in what looks like his last game ever or something...Lets go RED WINGS and LETS GO VEDDER< ~~!!!!

Great set. Great venue. Drunk idiots. Hate to see "the fans" turn off the musicians.

Also, can someone please PM me a photo of the sign outside the entrance to fox theatre......i think i'm the only one that didnt get a photo of it. Thx!

I hesitate to do this for a Pens fan but here are some night shots when all was quiet and all the jammers had gone to bed (or passed out).

Breaking Bad...one hell of a crazy show....gotta love it...

I have said for years that I'd love to see Pearl Jam at The Fox Theater. Having Eddie decide to appear there amazed me. I thought it would be too small of a place, but that is exactly why I wanted PJ there! It's very quaint and beautiful with all the seats great seats and good sound.
The ushers there are all volunteers. They do it so they can see shows free. They usually have plays performed there.
