  • ...I ever saw live with Pearl Jam - was 'Oceans' London oct. 28. 1996. Must say it´s a perfect opener, but the very next day there was another great opener 'Release' - but hey, all PJ songs are perfect openers in my mind... If there's an opener, there's a concert

  • my first song was 'sometimes'. i just stood there mesmorized by the whole thing. i couldnt comprehend what was going on around me. All these fans going crazy cos PJ were on stage. i must have looked like a statue.

  • Worldwide suicide. i was expecting them to open with long road or release. all i remember is that barrage of feedback, and then the drums kicked in. euphoric.

    Release-Chi 03

    the opening riff, combined with the excitement of the crowd, then Ed chimes in.....hooked
    He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.
  • Release - Dublin 96 and it made me feel euphoric

    waiting for your lids to close..
    but you want to watch as they peck your flesh..
    Ironic that they go for the eyes first

    hey fellow pj fans,

    mine was betterman at cleveland 06, the band came out and Ed started playing and the crowd sang the opening verse without Ed's help. I've been to a ton of concerts and this opening was the best I've seen. Can't wait till they come around my area in the future.

    First song I ever saw live was Inside Job, so that holds a special place in my heart, but I think Corduroy really did it for me (both at Dublin this year). Always liked corduroy, although it was never one of my favourites. It just hit me properly at Dublin. In fact, I'm gonna go listen to it right now. :)

    I wish I could hear that song next time...

    LBC would also be a perfect opener ;)
