They were HOT.....literally
From what I read...this show was incredible...was out taping a band tonight and tomarrow....I am looking forward to being on here for the relay....very cool! Thanks to those who posted the relay...!!!!
It only took 1.5 HOURS to get my 10c tickets... and there were people still coming in to the show 45 minutes in... the security setup and line management for will call was horrendous. Posters and all goodies were sold out by the time I even got in the door, and I did not screw around at all getting there...
Setlist was incredible... Last Kiss had Eddie standing on the roof of the soundboard area maybe 15 feet from me... it was just incredible. The sun going down left the sky bright orange and red... a beautiful venue once I got into the show, but as usual the Gorge as a venue apart from the show is less than stellar.
Anyway, the show was hot, the band was hot, and I need a cold shower... my hotel room here in Ellensburg has a bed that vibrates for over 30 minutes for a quarter...lol.
GREAT show, but PLEASE if anyone has a spare poster, please, I'd love to purchase it at fair value... really sucked about the lines tonite. I've got hard tickets for tomorrow... so I'm planning on getting there much earlier and should be able to get in much easier.
believe you me, i do believe
what was the mixup all about????
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Find shapes in the clouds.
Hear the murmur of the wind
and touch the cool water.
Walk softly,
we are intruders,
tolerated briefly
In an infinite universe.
I think ticketmaster suffered a printing problem, and the tickets wasn´t printed by the time they should.
Or something like that.

And Wash, and Crown of Thorns... and Blood, and Leash, and Teenage Wasteland, and so many more... just a killer high energy show. Seriously Eddie on the roof set the crowd off.
Don't know what was up with tickets... they were there and all, but there was very poor organization, and many people cut into the 10c line instead of going to the end... of course it is the Seattle show... so it is going to be nuts, but still... 1.5 hours in 100 degree sun sucked. And then to be denied a poster...weak.
I walked in to Wash, and I know for a fact there were HUNDREDS of 10c members behind me who still had to pick up tix, much less go through security and get in... I'm sure you'll hear more about it tonight and tomorrow.
The show more than made up for it... my girl has never seen PJ and her first two shows were Portland and tonight... she had a great time tonight save for the entrance debacle. Can't wait to close it out tomorrow... who knows what they will bust out.
believe you me, i do believe
Funny......it really is a twisted song.
FUCK THAT DUDE..10c screwed again???????? what a joke!

Oh my, they dropped the leash.
Morgan Freeman/Clint Eastwood 08' for President!
"Make our day"
Initially the crowd was exhausted from the heat (according to Ed it was 116 degrees
That 1st encore was blistering (Porch, in particular,was off the hook). To open the second encore ED sang Last Kiss to the people on the lawn from the top of the sound/lighting(?) booth some 35 odd rows back. It was awesome! Not to mention we got Baba, RITFW AND YL (extended with Little Wing jam + SSB-- best version EVER!!!) on the same night-- plus Dirty Frank!
Great show!!! Crossing my fingers for an acoustic set tormorrow, but it might just be too darned hot to start playing early-- hopefully not, you never know!
The Gorge has no clue how to run a show. The 10C line was a mile long and so unorganized. There was still tons of ppl in line when PJ took the stage. My friend waited over 1.5 hrs in line before he got his tickets. Luckily we parked in the VIP and the gait we walked in was right by the 10C line so we just snuck in and got our tickets in 2 minutes. We still missed the first 5 songs b/c they were only letting so many ppl in the gates at one time...even well after PJ took the stage.
tomorrow i am sure they will have everything worked out.....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Security was an absolute mess though. No single person knew all the 'rules'. They all had their own interpretations and were pissing a lot of people off.
I like the show, but something about it seemed off. Maybe it was because they started playing so early, without a preset like the Sept 1st show. This made the show end quite early.
Couldn't believe it when they started playing Dirty Frank. That was absolutely incredible. Totally worth standing outside in 100+ degree weather.
Having never been to a show at The Gorge, (regretfully due to my residence in Texas,) I was blown away, far beyond the pictures and fanviews I've seen and read before walking into this place. "Holy fucking shit," is about the only phrase I could think of all evening long.
I was at all three San Francisco shows, the Portland benefit, and this first night at The Gorge, and I must say, wow. Perhaps my reviewing capability would be more advanced tomorrow. Oh, no, I'll be at the next Gorge show tomorrow. Wow.

Glad we weren't the only ones who thought this. For the first time ever they didn't allow people to bring in blankets to sit on...they are a fire hazard you know. You could take in as many water bottles as you wished...but only after you threw the caps away in front of the security people. This was because someone might throw a bottle cap at someone and hurt them. Although I saw plenty of people buy water bottles inside that still had lids on them. Oh and no poster tubes. Again, you might injure someone with them. Not that it mattered because they were all sold out by 5pm anyway. Overall there were A LOT of really pissed off people.
Aside from the horrid security situation, the concert rocked!. It was hot and humid (it rained on and off all around us just enough to make it nice and muggy) but it was overcast most of the day, so at least we didn't have the hot sun directly beating down on us. It was still damn hot though! We are home now (Yakima), but will be heading back up in the morning. Can't wait. Tomorrow we will know what to expect as far as the new security measures and we shouldn't have any problems (knock on wood). Can't wait!
Glad to know where Eddie went during Last Kiss, I was searching for him but couldn't locate him so I assumed he went backstage or something.
Have fun to everybody staying for the second night, I'm sure they're going to pull more songs from Vitalogy/No Code.
Thanks for the review mother earth and Al Gore. Glad you enjoyed!
lol vedder in shorts! like the old days
- Eddie Vedder, San Francisco 7-16-06, after botching Sometimes, the night's opener

As a NYC girl living in Chicago and never having been out west... wow. Mt. Rainier; Seattle; all so amazingly beautiful. The drive out to the Gorge was a bit longer than we expected, and we arrived late. All I can say is that canadian(?) poster with the evergreen trees on it is a perfect artistic representation of the views here. Totally breathtaking.
Temperatures fluxuated between 104 up to the highest we saw at 109. We decided to stay at a hotel in Moses Lake for Saturday night because of the heat. Thank god.
Parking was a 45 minute wait for most people who weren't camping. The main Gorge campground looked very reminiscent of Woodstock. 10C ticket pickup was an hour wait as some have already said, with no real structure, people cutting the line and a good deal of confusion. Add to the confusion, Ticketmaster lost all service on the West Coast. Then there were the lines to get actually in to the Gorge itself.
But... wow. All those lines were worth the wait. Walking up the hill to look out at the stage and valley below, and the mountains beyond, literally brought tears to my eyes. It was just so damn gorgeous.
Me, Nixon in Detroit and Boston Bobby had 16th row, Mike's side towards the center and sat 2 rows in front of Ashley, Mike's wife. Ashley was with Chris Adams (?) whom Ed gave a shout out to as their friend who had recently gone through a lot of stuff in his life, which we believe was Crohn's related. What we (Nixon!) found out was that tonight's show was Chris's dream setlist. Chris & Ashley had made up the setlist in Portland and all throughout the show Mike and the boys kept pointing and waving to him and Ashley. For the last 2 songs, they left our area and went up on the side stage.
Thank you, thank you Chris, you wonderful human being.
Wash was just the perfect opener...then we get slammed with Cord, HH, WWS, Sev Hand, and then Ed went into a speech about staying "hydrated, indulated" and a few other -ated words (I think it was at this point) and taking care of our friends and neighbors then went into GTF.
Daughter tag included "the sun goes down... " to the most gorgeous sunset I've ever seen on the continental USA. Brilliant shades of of pink, red and orange streaking across the sky behind the mountains...Ed's voice coaxing the sun to down. Words can't do it justice.
Insignificance was great and reminded me of the Boein facility we passed on the way from Portland to Seattle. Blood was a riot of jumping, fist pumping and craziness.
Footsteps...beautiful. SOLAT into Crown was a personal favorite for me, at which point I could not help the tears again.
Last Kiss was on the roof of the sound area, which made an eh-eh song interesting. Inside Job, started off a teenie bit shakey, but was as beautiful as ever. When Baba started, we thought we were done..but oh no...
DIRTY FUCKIN FRANK baby!!
We had been chanting through the whole show and I literally think I peed my pants a little. I thought they were on fire. The bass line was groovy, with the help of the lyric sheet, Ed was on the money and it was just freekin incredible.
INCREDIBLE. I am a very happy girl.
Today we will be going over earlier and hopefully will manage the heat today (I do feel badfor the campers!)
More on Portland, meeting Mike, Gorge 2, CCFA totals, etc. on Tuesday!!
Back to sleep for me...

This is my kind of love...

Sounds like a very interesting evening for those of you who were there. I look forward to reading more about it as people get home.
