I agree -- Last Kiss isn't one of my favourites. The band seems to like it. Why was Last Kiss on the greatest hits but Crazy Mary wasn't -- I know that their both re makes. Hope this ain't a dumb question.

I could guess that Last Kiss was on the greatest hits album because it was thier best selling single... band prolly likes it cause they raised so much money for Kosovo with it... but those are just guesses...

i think its a top set... and i think 1/2 full is unreal. the guitar work is some of best of mikes work in my view. having immortality and nothingman... oh dear i think that is just about as cool as anything. having go then animal - freakin awesome as is hearing footsteps.
yes i wish i was at this concert
don't get me wrong, I wish that, too...I'm not complaining nor throwing crap at PJ, this is a unique band, especially when it comes to live shows...I'm just commenting on what the setlist looks like on a cold PC screen...obviously when you witness a concert it's a totally different thing...
and I just don't particularly like 1/2 Full, a song they play regularly, that's all...
so here I go
I'm finally on my way
once I said goodbye
that was my last wave
here I am on the
on the open road
I've never felt better
than when I am alone
(thank you dear L.!!!)
all I gotta say is PJ played in Toronto during SARS -- Eddie said "the band would cross the border for us any time". To me that's way bigger than any set list etc.... SARS was blown way out of proportion -- PJ were educated enough to realizea that it affected only a tiny portion of the population (0.0001%). While pussies like Britney Spears and others cancelled show afer show, PJ kept rolling. Thanks PJ -- just wanted something postive to say about the band.

that's just fine, PJ are not a common band...I understand that it meant a lot for you people of Toronto...and I LOVE Toronto so much and have friends there, so I was emotionally affected by the SARS fear as much as you guys...I remember that show at Molson Amphitheatre back in 2003, just a few days after the Concert for Toronto at the ex-Skydome and Air Canada Centre with the Hip, OLP, Barenaked Ladies ecc...I know PJ holds a special place in their hearts for Canada, so I'm sure Vancouver show was a blowout there...

yeh, i know what u mean, but i actually get excited when there are classics in there and in the same set. sets that are plain are sets kinda like the ones i got in australia... these ones this tour i think are awesome

but you live in Australia, and that's enough to be happy for a lifetime
that's fine, it's just taste, as always...
I like these awesome songs, but I prefer sets in which you find songs such as In My Tree, Tremor Chirst, Faithful, Low Light, All Those Yesterdays, Parting Ways, I Got Shit, In Hiding, Present Tense, Garden, Breakerfall, Habit, Thin Air, Sleight of Hand, Thumbing My Way, not even to mention all the other songs they never play...and I love rarities, and cover songs as well...

damn just got back and what a show. Definitely the best Vancouver show I have seen with the band. show almost went 2.5 hours...started at 9pm and went to 1120...
Vancouver show was unreal! The crowd was insane and so loud. I was at the Gorge and so were a few others around me and we all agreed Vancouver was much better. Yes, the Gorge had a lot of rarites but the band was not "ON" at the Gorge. Eddie fucked up numerous times which ruined it after a while and all the ppl filming the show at the Gorge finally stopped recording later in the show b/c they realized it wasn't going to make a DVD. The Tom Petty chant at the Gorge got a little redundant after 10 times also. The band was much tighter and intense in Vancouver. I have never seen the band so intense as they were for the first 7 songs or so. They looked possessed. Probably one of my top 5 PJ shows out of 42 now. Oh, and Eddie has a new tattoo on his right forearm (unless it is a fake tattoo) of an anchor. Nicholas Cage was side stage and I think Wolfgang is his soon to be baby boy.

yeh but i guess thats cause ur lucky and prob get to go to a lot of gigs lol
no but i too love the rare songs, the covers n such.

PJ has officially screwed themselves. They have now set their own bar far too high. Some of you people now think a concert sucks if there are NOT 3 songs played that have never been played before
You can't expect an awesome set list every night, but as the one guy who's been to 42 shows said above, they were "ON" and they rocked. That matters to me most.
Maybe they're just saving the rarities for Ontario
I estimate there will be approx 80% first timers at the canadian shows. Don't think they'll have much of a problem with these setlists. This tour is all about reaching the masses who haven't had the chance to see PJ before.
I am fuel, you are friends, we got the means to make amends

Probably not true for Vancouver, Montreal or Toronto. The crowd was unreal and although my only complaint was that the setlist looked a lot like the one that they played in 03, they were "ON!" Eddie looked and sounded years younger, the band was full of energy and I think the guys seemed to be having more fun then they had in a long time. I know it may sound lame on paper but it was a highlight show and would make an amazing DVD
I feel like that's what happened with Hershey, PA 2003....the night before was Mansfield where they played 45 songs, so I was totally hoping for a "Mansfield the second" at Hershey, but that didn't quite happen!
You know, I was there and kinda felt the same thing. I remember Ed even apologizing for being a little hoarse due to them doing the Boston marathon thing. The show seemed shorter than normal that night, but none the less the full moon, Ed's hilarious banter with the crowd, and the fact that it was my last show of the '03 tour made it a memorable night.
To all detractors: 1) Looked like a good set to me... 2) Let me know where you work and I'll be sure to watch you all day long, and if you don't work as hard or as long one particular day, I'll be sure to rip you a new one as a result... would you like that?
Supersuckers set: Ed came out to sing on an unknown song.
Song was Poor Girl off of the Free the West Memphis Three CD.
Ed was wearing his silver suit & a mexican wrestling mask.
Ed, he's such a character.
Walking can be a real trip

I loved the setlist in Vancouver. The first set didn't have anything "rare" but I think when they play rare songs every night they aren't rare anymore. It's nice when they save them for a few special shows like the Gorge....which wasn't that special and great of a show imo...compared to Vancouver. A few reasons I feel that way are b/c my seats "sucked". I was in the 9th row WAY to the side 30 feet past Stone in front of the right speakers. I hate being on the side and shows are not as fun as being more in the middle where I was 3rd row right in front of Jeff in Vancouver. Eddie fucked up way too at the Gorge for it to be a good show and Eddie over-killed the Tom Petty banter at the Gorge. The setlist at the Gorge did not seem to have a good flow to it like it did in Vancouver. Rare songs are cool but half the crowd doesn't know the songs that well and kills the energy somewhat. The Vancouver show had a great flow to it and was one of the best shows I have seen. They played lots of songs I wanted to hear including...Nothingman, Black, Bee Girl, Immortality, Footsteps.
I agree -- Last Kiss isn't one of my favourites. The band seems to like it. Why was Last Kiss on the greatest hits but Crazy Mary wasn't -- I know that their both re makes. Hope this ain't a dumb question.
I wonder that about Crazy Mary myself. Had my fingers crossed on seeing it live last night but what a great show anyway! I am reading some reviews on here that says it was one of their best, and it sure felt electric last night (and I was even in the balcony with a bunch of people who looked like they thought they were in church and wouldn't stand up!).
what can I say...much ado about nothing...
I was just commenting on what it looked like form here, I am a little tired of most of Ten and Vs. songs, just my opinion...then people in Vancouver said PJ rocked out more than ever...just fine, that's what matters the most, end of story...I don't understand why some of you took it so seriously...
(P.S. I actually saw PJ just once, I live in Europe )

Um, good Lord. That's an awesome setlist ... They played nine songs that had yet to be played this tour. Sure, no Lost Dogs rarities, but there's how many shows left to go?
I getting getting ready for Calgary tonight ... I think I'll head over there super-early and see if I can catch a soundcheck. Hopefully I won't get arrested for loitering or anything.
