Please come back to Halifornia. I need to take my girlfriend to a show (finally). She just got back from Europe a couple weeks before the show and simply could not afford to come along, but was kind enough to allow my friend and I to see all 3 Atlantic Canadian shows. Greatest girl on earth in my opinion. After I got back, and told her all of the great tales (and she listened to the bootlegs) she went out of her way to become a huge PJ fan so that next time she'll be dying to come along. I owe it to her to take her to a show, and Halifax would be a great spot for her first PJ live experience.
So, c'mon! Pearl Jam, Live at the Halifax Metro Centre, Spring 2007.........may as well make a DVD of it as well, eh?
PS: Ed, if you want to play "Throw Your Arms Around Me" as a pre-set, it would be huge. My girl loves that cover.

Here's a much needed bump on the day after attending the massive and epic Rolling Stones concert in the Halifax Commons. A show that made me dream yet again of PJ returning. As much pyro, fireworks, and flames as there were last night, it still came nowhere to topping that night in September in 2005.
checking in for the cause.. HALIFAX and ST JOHN'S ROCK!!
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

yup. i agree. i was there. i was cold, wet and miserable. my friend and i left early.
if it had been PJ i would have stayed all night in the pouring rain and the cold cold winds.
I was There but at the Metrocenter for hockey insted of the stones i saw them in moncton last year and they were awsome but I already had hockey tickets and it was pouring rain got some swee pics of the set up and tear down of the stage though saw some awsome hockey and even found a copy of Pearl Jam: Live at easy street ep (which is awsome by the way) at the HMV in the Mic Mac mall so all in all a pretty sweet time in Hali although not as good as the time one year ago when Pearl Jam was there.
what do we have to do to get this PJ return to Halifax ball rolling?
sward...you've been quiet...any new ideas? any leads?
Did you get the PM, as I'm assuming everyone on these boards did ? It stated that there is a movement in the Southern U.S. to draw PJ down there by way of an environmental casue - i.e.: a tree-planting campaign. It was kinda clever i thought, though I'm not sure how original such an idea is, or how much "pull" it might have.
Speaking of pull, I just remembered Eddie saying, " I say what kinda pull do we have in this goddamn town ?!" HA.
And yeah, what happened to our ;little Wintersleep connection ?!
what environmental cause could we use...Sydney Tar Ponds? Halifax Harbour Cleanup? the constant stink of Saint John? the black mould in my bathroom?
I thought the PM was odd....I don't know why I got it - by mistake I guess. Although, of all places for it to go to, don't you think its a little weird that it would go to a Halifax person, and one who recently asked for contributiuons as to how to lure the boys for a return engagement. That's weird. It raises some interesting questions RE: just what is needed, perhaps to get these guys back. I'm hesitant to merely imitate someone else's initiative....not that the cleanup of Saint John isn't a pressing and worthy cause. HA
Whadda mean you're PMless ? Lanners, don't be bringing your medical/biological maladies to a public forum like "given to fly". Too..... much..... information.......

get your head out of my uterus, would you!
i would hate to think that we'd have to lure the band back after the incredible show everyone experienced.
You guys had Ledbetter Come Back to this Small Town, just Once. If it was Not For You, us fans would not be Alive. It was Hard To Imagine that "U" played here. Following your Last Exit, when we were Parting Ways, you put us on a Long Road of hope. However, another show is on our Wishlist, and we are Faithful that there will be another one Around The Bend. Please let it not be Light Years away. It may not be the Garden, but the Metro Center will Hold On for an All Night gig. Why Go? Don't Gimme No Lip! We want it All Or None! Enough about the past, we need to start talking in the Present Tense. Maybe an outdoor show, In The Moonlight? No Way! Two shows at the Metro Center would make us Smile. So please, ride that Big Wave back to Halifax. We're Sad you're Gone and we'll give you a show you won't Soon Forget. Here's hoping that I will soon be a Hitchhiker, and Thumbing My Way back to Halifax. Maybe I will take my MFC, or I might be Given To Fly. Either way, Release us from our Leash, and Get Right!
Halifax 2007. The show will be a Gremmie Out Of Control, and you Can't Keep us Down!
Well, its Low Light, and I'm Drifting, so I should be Leaving Here. Let Me Sleep, its Satan's Bed time. Off He Goes. See you on the Otherside.
