Nice show! I can't say I'm PJs biggest fan, I knew mostly the hit songs... But I still had a great time! I bought the bootleg and like the addition of nice photographs too in the package! Because I was so far away my photos turned out with band members tiny like ants! Here's the link to a few of my pics anyhow... http://www.christellefv.com/ashowtime/2005-pearljam.html
Well, I'm back at work now and just dead. No voice left. What a show!! We were in section 112, row H and were surrounded by people from England, Toronto, Philly, Boston! I finally got to meet some board people at the little restaurant next to Grumpy's: stpmattb, ACCBootlegGoddess, XBoxJunkie, etc. Everyone was cool. They even shared some food with us while we waited for ours. Very cool. Met a nice couple from Baltimore, Matt and Amanda. Hey guys!
The show was just awesome. I could not believe that 2nd Encore. Whipping, Down, Blood, Black, Baba and YL. Holy Shit!
Harvest Moon was a treat. So was Trouble. Just Ed solo on that one. It was amazing. And you can't go wrong with Release as the opener.
Heading to Ottawa tonight. Hope to see everyone there!!
were you the couple from dallas pretty much right in front of me, i was in row j, the bald guy with the riot act shirt on.
Awesome! The setlist is wrong I think. I think it was Trouble > MOTH > Harvest Moon, and it was sooooooo good. I had perma-grin for a good 15 minutes. The whole show was amazing. They kick my ass every time!
I will feel....alive....as long as I'm freeeeeeee...

I loved all the cover and it was another fucking mind blowing show.
But it didn't top Winnipeg. If fact, I think all concerts everywhere are now spoiled because of how good that was.
The crowd was HUGE. HUGE. And everyone sang, and Ed was hilarious, and it was a good time.
Man of the Hour made me cry, Black was gorgeous again, Alive was awesome, Porch and Blood were my fave though.
I liked the contrast bewteen the rocking stuff at the start and the very mellow 1st encore.
I'll write a real review later. I have to go be a tourist now!

I've been reading all the posts, and this set list looks like it was pretty awesome, but its good to hear someone say it didn't top WPG!!! It was an out of this world amazing show, and i'm glad you thought so too! i thought wpg was pj at their best!
What an amazing show!! I"m still recovering...!
Just got back home in Ottawa , gonna nap,shower and get ready the Ottawa show tonight !
I think that was the best crazy mary version I have ever heard...soo good..and I really loved how they opened with release..good intro !
Can't wait for tonight !
I just woke up from a long nap - got home from Montreal around 2am and crashed hard. Now I am getting prepared for the Ottawa show - I hope Ottawa is just as lively as the Montreal show and people won't have there fingers up there ass and sit through the show. I was crossing my fingers for Daughter or State since they have been singing it in previous shows and I am sending out my thoughts for them to play it tonight. After tonight I head home to pack to head to the airport to see the last show of my goddess Tori Amos last concert in Los Angeles.
I have crappy seats for Ottawa - Section 302 Row B - if you are up there and see a red head girl say hi.

I just got back from the show and man was it amazing......I drove from Saint John, NewBrunswick. It took just over 10hrs to get there. Right off the bat at the hotel Best Western I met up with some jamheads......always a good sign.
On Thursday I met the colest guy by the name of TAC,,, he's from the west coast and was driving the PJ cross Canada van. TAC, you are a freaking cool man....I was the one videotaping.....people his van was the scheeet. Gotta post some pics when I get the developed. I'll write more when I'm a little better rested. Just wanna say thanks as well to the guy who's been a member for 12 yrs. He had ROW A 14 seats....greaqt help he was. I got some posts, hoodies because of him. Thanks all it was an amazing show and I'll see you in Halifax!!!1

Trouble
Oh trouble set me free
I have seen your face
And it's too much too much for me
Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You're eating my heart away
And there's nothing much left of me
I've drunk your wine
You have made your world mine
So won't you be fair
So won't you be fair
I don't want no more of you
So won't you be kind to me
Just let me go where
I'll have to go there
Trouble
Oh trouble move away
I have seen your face
and it's too much for me today
Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You have made me a wreck
Now won't you leave me in my misery
I've seen your eyes
and I can see death's disguise
Hangin' on me
Hangin' on me
I'm beat, I'm torn
Shattered and tossed and worn
Too shocking to see
Too shocking to see
Trouble
Oh trouble move from me
I have paid my debt
Now won't you leave me in my misery
Trouble
Oh trouble please be kind
I don't want no fight
And I haven't got a lot of time
It was gorgeous. So simple and so Ed.

Highlights: too many.
I thought I loved this band, just can't get enough anymore.
Wow: Crazy mary was awesome.
Thanks to 10c, for great tix. You folks do a great job.

The poster for the Montreal show is eerily similar to that of Montreal/Barrie '98. Can't imagine it's just a coincidence (check out the links below):

No matter... the band was great, totally into it and so was the crowd.
Loved it. Harvest Moon was an interesting choice. Well done.

I figure its to do with getting off a major label if that makes sense.
- Crazy Mary and Alive (end of 1st encore). This version of CM was awesome. The crowd was at its peak for Alive.
- The dedication of the show to Johnny Ramone.
- Eddie's voice is still alive, no doubt on that.
- The whole night
2 things though:
- Black was....normal, not awesome. Some technical problems on it too. I was expecting more from this song live (was my first PJ show).
- They did not play State of love and trust. I wanted to hear this song.
