    What a show!! My third and final show of this tour. I got to hear Wishlist and Leaving Here for the first time. It was fantastic!
    It was also my sister's first show and I couldn't have picked a better show for her to see as her first. She forgave PJ for not playing Nothingman because Bono came out.
    How crazy was that? No way did I think that it was going to happen, even with the talk of it on the boards. But Ed hinted at it all nite talking about U2 a bunch. I kind of tackled my sis out of excitement when I saw the man with the cowboy hat on.
    Anyways, thanks PJ and Sleater Kinney for a great week! Enjoy the rest of Canada. We love you here in Ontario!

    wow ... what a sik show ... while very similar to the kitchener show I saw last Sunday, it was still amazing in its own ... and with U2 as the "opening band", it was great to see Bono run out on stage during Rockin' in the Free World ... the crowd went nuts, the energy levels were running high and made for an amazing show ... wishlist was a highlight as well as my other faves Jeremy and Given to Fly ... ya just gotta hand it to PJ to put on one hell of a show with a few surprises here and there ... thanks ed, stone, jeff, mike and matt for making canada a better place this past month!

    What an awesome night! Sure, people will complain that it wasn't long enough or that it was too "generic" of a set list(hell, I'm one of the complainers), but ya know what? The band rocked out hard core tonight! From Porch as the pre-set, to Release as the opener(my personal fav), right on through some of my other favs such as Given To Fly, Wishlist and Blood, this was an awesome performance! The crowd was the best I've experienced in Toronto, certainly better than '00, or '03 in my opinion. And to top it all off, Bono coming on stage was just incredible! Also, the "tower" comparisson was funny as hell! We both have large erections(Seattle and Toronto), lol... Gotta love Eddie....

    good show, very predictable... i saw kitchener, hamilton, and i would rank toronto last out of those 3.

    but then again...bono guested on rockin' and i was there to see, soooo...yeah

    bono wants a free world, as does pearl jam. good mix.

    the hamilton show was more intimate(more interaction with the fans)...But toronto rocked the fuckn' house down, bono was a good feature but neil would have been a dream come true. Keep on rocking the fuck on guys, your awesome.

    The crowd sure brought their A-game. Ed has his troubles tonight. At times it was the lyrics, the guitar level (?) and getting around with his mic chord. The crowd gave it in Betterman.
    And what was that improv/new song/intro to Small Town?

    ps. And it was nice to see Sleater-Kinney include Words and Guitar into their set. They've been a great opening band.

    It was a pretty good show, very enjoyable. Pretty similar setlist to Kitchener and Hamilton - both of which I saw - but all in all a pretty rockin show. What happened to Ed though during Black? Before the we belong together part he walked off the stage to get a towel I believe, but from my vantage point it seemed as though he was tearing up. I have heard of this occuring before, but I just want to clearify with others that that's acctually what occured. I was 19th row, so a distraught and teary ed might actually have just been a tired and sweaty ed...

    he did hug jeff right after though...hmmm...

    I think Ed was a wee bit hungover, lotsa mistakes but all taken in stride to produce another amazing show ... was cool to see Stone finish Ed's guitar parts in an early song after his string broke. What song was that? I'd remember but I'm a wee bit tired....3 shows in 8 days fun fun fun.

    Other highlights:
    Ed pointed out the world's largest erection (CN Tower) and said it reminded him of Seattle's Space Needle.

    As indicated Bono rocked Rockin in the Free World...a very nice treat.

    The preshow wave.

    The last comments that they would like to come back...always good to hear.

    Am i the only one going apeshit here???

    Most of you are making it sound as if this were pretty much just another show. I haven't heard it yet, but come on!! Ed doing Porch solo????! AND the Black tag, AND Bono on RITFW!!! I'm dying to hear more details of any of these three occurences.

    i was sitting in the back corner of the ACC where he walked off during black. all he did was towel off and light up a smoke, nothing out of the ordinary really.

    Seats were in the 4th row. Average show IMHO (Hamilton was better). The Daughter/betterman/1/2 full brought me down, but still fun.

    I have a pretty good vid of Bono and ed singing
    Maybe so, Maybe not!

    Long time fan, first show. Kick ass.

    Took my buddy who isn't too familiar with PJ, made a fan out of him. Good setlist; lots of crowd pleasers. Could have thrown a few more songs in but nothing to complain about. The crowd seemed pretty hyped, we were in the back, sec. 113 row 26... not the best seats but it didn't matter much, great view of Matt.

    Have most of the 2000, 2003 bootlegs, can't wait to finally hear how a show sounds on a boot compared to actually being there :D Thanks for the pics sharptoe, if anyone else has some that would be awsome.

    Long live Pearl Jam!!!
