    Ed Pre-Set:
    Throw Your Arms Around Me
    Pearl Jam Set List: Release, Life Wasted, Severed Hand, Corduroy, Do The Evolution, Dissident, Even Flow, Marker In The Sand, In Hiding, Better Man, Daughter / (With My Own Two Hands), Garden, I Got Id, State Of Love And Trust, Inside Job, World Wide Suicide, Porch
    1st Encore: Wasted Reprise, Man Of The Hour, Waiting On A Friend, Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town, Black, Alive
    2nd Encore: Go, Why Go, Comatose, Smile, Rockin' In The Free World, Yellow Ledbedder

    we were in for the preset and knew ed would hit us hard. probably the best version of throw your arms i have heard. stuck around for that pollard dude and came to the conclusion that he/his band rawked...with some cool punk thrown in for good measure...just to keep it real.

    i'm still loving the new songs soooo much...i just can't properly describe just HOW much...

    probably one of the best daughter tags i have heard too...it was my 27th show.

    waiting on a friend can also not be properly described. the band came to pittsburg and kick my ass with that song, among others. nice to see corduroy way up there at the start of the show...it really rawks out, always.

    it was my last show this year(4/5th leg please!). the band did us so proud. i left the show completely satisfied that they were still cooking. the band

    all u kats who have more shows to do just remember to be careful out there, and mostly, just have a great time. it truely is a great moment to be a pearl jam fan

    thanks to the 10c

    best band ever

    Yes, that's Nixon.. he's volunteered at several CCFA Fundraisers, an avid fan of Matt Cord and the 10Club on WMMR and an all around hottie sweetheart of a guy :D

    Seems like an all around good guy. Really gets into the show. Great to see.
  • If you go to a concert in Pittsburgh, expect to hear the Steelers chant, if you go to a baseball game in Pittsburgh, expect to hear the Steelers chant, if you go to a church service in Pittsburgh, expect to hear the Steelers chant, if you go to a FUNERAL in Pittsburgh, expect to hear the Steelers chant........ the Steelers are the team that defines the city............ Here we go Steelers Here we go.............

    week+ later i still really enjoyed the show.

    looking back at it.. JUST the setlist.

    Man of the house, release opener, smile, i got shit, garden, great preset... My personal favorites - SOLAT, porch(which is an awesome 20 minutes long), and i really liked the new stuff.

    And im really fucking thankful that we got a full set with 2 encores after reading all the bitching about the petty shows. I dont think i realized at the time how lucky i was.

    Awesome energy, good sound, energetic band, great setlist. What else could i need?

  • I have been a devoted fan since I was 15 years old. 15 years ago. This was the first time I have ever got to see them live. Every time they came around something was going on in my life, i.e. kids, marriage etc. Let me just say I was so excited!!! Counting downs the days, even months before the show. It was like being a kid again!! The boys did not let me down!! The absolute best concert I have ever seen!! Even my husband, who likes Pearl Jam, but is a little jealous of my obsession, had the best time of his life!! I think we may have actually turned him to being also, a devoted fan!! So thanks guys, for the memory and the good time!! I will never forget! Hope to see you again soon!!

  • a fan since '91, obsessed shortly thereafter. everyone was so glad i was going to see them in pitts. cuz they thought i would finally shut up about pearl jam. HA!!!! little did they know.... my first show.....i still can't stop re-living it. sooooo....we're going to australia in november to see 'em!!! it's more adventurous than just following them west! should be interesting to see how they are received down under. i'm 38, brought a 19 y.o. friend who I have been training to love pearl jam like i do! he cried. elderly woman was awesome. betterman was hypnotic. i could go on and on. one more quickie....a girl told me a while back how she saw them in seattle and it was great cuz it was quiet and she could only hear pearl jam????? hearing alll my peoples singing along with almost every song....priceless. and the woman i'm after called during betterman. she was doubly blessed! i'm really tryin' to shut up!!! peace!!!
    lifetimes are catchin' up with me.
