Fantastic setlist. Indifference to close kicks ass. Would have loved that in place of Ledbetter at one of the past 3 shows!

Excellent show tonight ladies & gents. Ten Club #138xxx got me seats in the 14th row on the floor on Mike's side.

Pearl Jam came out fast and furious and hardly gave us a moment to breathe during the main set. There was little talking during the main set. About four songs in Ed said hello and had a swig from his wine bottle. Before Army Reserve he taunted us by saying the Boston crowd was louder. We booed loudly at that point although I'd have to agree with him and say it wasn't the best crowd I'd ever been a part of. The Army Reserve --> Immortality --> Green Disease combo was great although it didn't look like many people knew the latter. Ed introduced Alone by saying this is for the connoisseur. Stone's guitar died during the song and they halted it midway through. Stone got a new guitar and they restarted it from where they left off. Why Go, Jeremy, and RVM got loud cheers.

The first encore was fantastic. The crowd sang along loudy to the somewhat obscure set. Footsteps was a huge crowd pleaser and Ed mentioned that the next three songs would go together and introduced Once as Act 2 and Alive as Act 3 to complete the reverse Mamasan. Ed also totally botched the second verse of Once but no one cared. Alive was played with the lights on.

Ed began the second encore by saying "if you're staying we are staying" and they busted into Last Exit. Before Leash Ed asked the crowd if they remembered the incident in 2003 where they played Bushleaguer and were booed loudly at the time. (Note: This actually occurred at Nassau Coliseum in 2003, not E. Rutherford. Not sure if Ed was confused or grouping the nearby areas together.) He said he wanted to continue the conversation but they weren't going to play it. He asked if it would be ok to play it and the crowd kind of booed. He then said the last time we were here there was a sign that said "Play Leash You Pussies." (Note: This was actually MSG. Again, not sure if he was confused or grouping the areas.) He then said "you boo us, you call us pussies, and we keep coming back" and they started Leash. After Leash Ed said "Pussies no more."

Baba & Indifference were nice closers with the crowd singing loudly during both. Can't wait to see how they top this one Saturday.

Any more info on Ed losing his mic and the Alive knee injury?

The set was heavy in the new album and the first three. I wonder how many times since '96 has there been a setlist without any No Code tunes. No complaints though, they were excellent.

I didn't see Ed lose his mic. If you're referring to the Alone incident, Stone's guitar died, it had nothing to do with a mic as someone erroneously reported.

Ed seemed to hurt his ankle pretty bad jumping during the end of Alive. He had a noticable limp for the rest of the show but didn't say anything about it.
