Three Shows This Year..... & Pearl Jam was the Worst

Not that they were bad or anything. The Pepsi Center is a shitty venue and Tom Petty isn't worth seeing. And the prices were ridiculous, but this is all old news. Pearl Jam really rocked for an "opening band," and we even saw Leash. I felt like a jackass not knowing what the song was, just because I had already dismissed any chance of seeing this song months ago, when I heard the shows were with Petty. Unfortunately, all the highlights of the show were older songs, particularly off Ten & VS. Even Flow, Black, Why Go, and Leash were the definite highlights. Insignificance was special for me, and that was the best version ever. Severed Hand was the best new song, but WWS is shit.
I saw Primus & Tool this year, and there are no highlights for either show. That is because of how fucking incredible they were. Life changing experiences! Its strange that Tool and Primus were both headliners, and their setlists were pretty much the same length as Pearl Jam being an opening band. Pearl Jam had a weak crowd, and the sound wasn't very loud, even though they were spot on. I guess there is no point to this post. So, sorry you read it.
Fuck Petty!

You're an idiot. You've contradicted yourself about 4 times. You didn't know what Leash was.... yet the highlights were the songs off Vs & Ten? I've also heard that Tool don't change their setlists up much at all.
I think you're a casual fan.

hehehehehe
And if you found a Tool show a life changing event, I wouldn't expect you to appreciate Tom Petty.
(I'm not slagging Tool btw, just trying to make a point:) )
To me, a PJ show can't really be bad....I'm seeing my favorite fvckin' band!
Because they really need to come and post the fact on a PJ forum, especially when it's clear that he/she/it is a casual fan who has no idea what's going on with Pearl Jam. If this person prefers the predictability of a Tool show or wasting time and money on never-beens like Primus, I have no problem with it, but maybe try posting that on one of their message boards.

Yeah, you'd hope but clearly not.

i also think its possible to like tool and tom petty.
crowd could have been weak for a number of reasons, eg the tom petty crowd
nehow, different things for different people
p.d.. and also....a 3000 and so posts person, its not a "casual fan"...let´s be a little more open minded
Chicago and Down the Coast in 2003
Seattle 2005
SF 2000, 2001, 2003--- oh or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who cannot forgive yourself
1. going to play long and
2. going to hog the spot light
everyone knows that PJ is the best... when they headline... I though Oahu was amazing.. they warmed up for U2.. played what 50 minutes... but it was amazing

I'm trying to make a point, Tool sucks.
But really, sorry you actually think that about the Pearl Jam shows.
i also saw primus this year in NYC...
the crowd at primus was the worst crowd i've ever been around in my entire life. I've never seen so many drunken idiots in one room. As soon as the band came out i was literally crushed against a near 400 lb. Dale Ernhart fan. After the 3rd song they had to take a 15 min break to reset the baracade in the front b/c so many people were rushing it... i thought i was going to die... honestly. it was probably the worst concert experience of my life. I swam through a sea of people to the back of the venue and watched the rest of the show from there... i would never want this experience at a Pearl Jam concert... so if your idea of a good crowd is this type of crowd then you can stfu b/c i dont want to be a part of it.
Btw i really love primus and this was my first time seeing them... they're excellent live but in my eyes 11 pj songs live tops the 11 they played any day.
No you didn't, you dickhead. You're only saying this know b/c you got flamed.
