    Amazing Show. :o:o My wife saw Mike M. sitting down near the second row towards the end. We both were able to make it over there and meet him :P . He was very 8-) signed three autographs, shook our hands and seemed excited to be there. It was an amazing show. We were going to do a thread/relay but an unknown member bailed at the last minute. So I am glad somebody else posted for you guys. WOW :shock: right towards the end Eddie said that he heard Mike was here through the grapevine and invited him up for Yellow Ledbetter. It was crazy amazing. :D:D We hung out for about two hours afterwards and got to meet him. :P Very freindly and very appreciative. We'll post some pics of the concert towards Saturday when we travel back home. It was the most amazing evening of our lives. :D:D

  • So those of you who saw Mike in the audience, was he on his feet singing with everyone else during Porch & Hard Sun? I bet he was itching to get a guitar in his hands when Ed played PJ songs! :D

    Another great setlist! Mike McCready showing up....just wow! The audience must have been ecstatic! Only a few more days until Oakland!!! :D

    For those that were there, did Ed play all of Brain Damage or just a few verses like in previous tours?

    just a few verses, which lead into sometimes...it was pretty awesome

    I would love to hear I'm One live. Ed does such a great job on that one. Very jealous of those who were there.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    Great show but I must say that I believe the crowd bailed early. Weirdest ending to a Eddie show I've seen...Ed and Mike play Led with the lights on (awesome crowd vibe) and then they proceed to walk side stage behind the curtain with no typical Ed ending thanking everyone. I honestly believe they would have done a 3rd encore if the crowd wanted it. A younger crowd might have gotten that third encore with Mike and Ed rockin' more PJ.

    Either way it was a great show...Society was da shiznit.

    I agree that the ending was a bit strange and that it felt like maybe we could've got another song or two out of Ed. But it seems like he's been playing only 2 songs for the 2nd encore and after watching Mike rip YL with the awesome sound produced in that venue, I was not about to complain.

    Thumbing My Way was a treat for me as that was the first time I heard it live. I actually dug Picture in a Frame and LOVED Brain Damage.

    I was hoping that they would've done the slowed down version of Lukin. I was at the NYC show on 5/22/10 when he first played it that way and it was haunting.

    10 club seats were eh, 9th row of loge, but it really didn't matter. I thought the crowd was intense but respectful at the same time. To see such a unique artist with that sound quality and to hear such great covers...memories I'll never forget.

    Can't wait for the U.S. tour announcement....otherwise....O' Canada...
  • It was a really good show. We were in the 1st row of loge 3 so not the greatest but not the worst. Wished we were in the bottom with the more well behaved people :D .

    It would of been so much better had the Eastern European slags behind us not been so annoying. They proceeded to: seat squat, take the brightest flash pics, sing horribly to songs the audience wasn't singing along with and talk with each other and on the phone.

    I wanted to punch one in the jejunum.

    Glen Hansard is the man, sorry to see the crowd missed his set.

    Got to hear 5 songs from PJ albums I have been wanting to hear. Ed sounded great and was very talkative.

    I saw Cameron Crowe from the loge area on the floor. It would've been nice to chat him up.
