Maybe basing my comments on Astoria, IP and opening night isnt a good idea.

Since the first two were warm-up shows for tonight ... it's understandable that the setlists would be similar.

I'd imagine the rest of the tour would look like, well, the rest of their tours, with different nights heavy on different albums.

Of course it is just like us to be making all these comments after only ONE show....but, hum I do think that it is telling they played half of ten and almost the whole new album, which is great. I guess the last 2 tours focused on more songs from the Bineural, Riot act era. Hope as the hour rolls on they will start to add back in some more.....maybe wishlist, NAIS, tremor christ? we will just have to wait and see!

YEESSSSSSSSSSS ....

Sweet-ass setlist to start. One bootleg going to be purchased ...

I gotta hold off. or else I'll end up buying every single boot. And I can't be doing that ...

So, this is how its gonna be?

Not a whole lot different setlist from Astoria or Irving Plaza. I LOVE that they're playing a ton of new songs every night because I love the new album. And since I'll be attending my first show this tour, I couldn't care less what they play (I own every album, and about 30-40 bootlegs. This is the first time in the last 4 tours that I'm not on call or having a new baby to take care of. Thank God). Well, not true - I dont really like Save You. Its their only song that I dont like.

6 songs from Ten - wow. I guess Sad counts as a Riot Act tune, cause nothing else they played tonight does (how unusual). And only one song off of each Vs., No Code and Binaural. Whatever. i loved the last 2 albums, but who knew they still had this in them? Id honestly be happy if they played the entire new album for me when I go, its just that good.

So have we seen the last of You Are? Or Can't Keep?

Also looks like they're getting away from opening with the slow ones, Maybe basing my comments on Astoria, IP and opening night isnt a good idea.

Its way too early to draw any conclusions about how its going to be ... My guess is that tomorrow's nights' show in the same venue is going to be quite different. Probably a more traditional opener and more old songs. Just a guess, though. Hopefully we'll get the new ones they didn't play tonight as well (Army Reserve, Big Wave, etc).

That's a good point, actually.
**takes a deep breath**

Oh yeah, that's right. How did that not get on the album.

BTW, love your tag, mylifeIsought. Good to know there are other fans of that band around, too. The combiunation of varying setlists, awesome live performances and great music draws people to both, i think, The EW writer wasnt far off with comments about the Dead(Now them I managed to see alot) and PJ. Parallels with Phish are the same.

No kidding, I agree totally. The varying setlists are one of the biggest draws for me, and I want to see that continue.

Yep, such as fans obsessively posting setlists on message boards

So
Ten: 6
Vs.: 1
Vitalogy: 3
No Code: 1
Yield: 2
Binaural: 1
Riot Act: 0 (?!?)
Lost Dogs: 2
Avocado: 7
Cover: 1

Cutting way down on Riot Act? Sure. COMPLETELY dropping Riot Act from the setlist?!? Between Astoria, Irving Plaza and first night in Toronto, the ONLY Riot Act song played was I Am Mine, at the Astoria...

See.... Even Pearl Jam hates Riot Act.

pghas

Yeah, all we need to do is get a tour tournament going and we're all set!

Too bad the bands themselves are so different - for Phish's sake, anyway. PJ thrives by taking 2 of every 3 years off. Phish probably needed to do that, but their material is so complex and their jams rely so heavily on them interacting that taking huge gaps of time off isn't really an option.
