    had a great time in Buffalo today and tonight, saw some familiar faces, met some new faces behind some board names, talked to some strangers that recognized me :lol::lol: , which I always get a kick out of.

    Band were fantastic as always, Pendelum is a great opener, I can forsee them doing this for the tour and then playing a more regular opener after, it definitely seems like the first 3-4 songs are going to be mellow tunes in the main set and first encore so that Ed can make it through the whole show, which I kinda like

    I will write more tomorrow

  • What a great show. It may be beat the Hamilton show a couple years back. I was at the left side of the stage with great seats. Props to the guy in front of us with the sign saying.. Wine is fine but Vedder is better. Eddie gave him his bottle of wine
    Underneath this smile lies everything...
  • With these last two shows I got 61 songs including 49 different songs. There were 15 new ones for me including 10 from LB (10/12) and 5 other ones. Not a bad "harvest". :D
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I just saw a YouTube video of future days, small town, and rats. The boys are playing on time. They don't seem to be rushing through the songs. They sound great.

    Seems like a great night! Glad everyone had a great time!
    I've been fortunate enough to see Pearl Jam live.

    I am hanging in the balance of a perfect finished plan
    Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand.
  • What a night in Buffalo!!! Met Mike on our way to pick up our tickets, so cool that he took the time to meet a few fans. Class act all the way!!!
    The energy on the floor was crazy, there was even some crowd surfing going on. Definitely one of the most energetic shows I've been to. Setlist was killer, the new songs sound amazing live, even Sirens which I wasn't a fan of, but that changed last night. http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5466/10245420123_99f762d1f7.jpg

    Caught some flack for skipping some Canadian Thanksgiving activities with family...I my mind I spent the night with my other family. Thanks for another great show. Second time hearing lightening bolt and future days since Wrigley. New appreciation for both. All the new songs sounded great. Good crowd. That finishesy 3rd show in 2013. Great way to end the run. I'll wait patiently for next years CanadiN tour....

    Came on around 8:20 (so much for the 7:30 call mentioned in the email from 10c) and played until 11:00. I thought the crowd was really loud. Very happy vibe in the building and in the City. Such a beautiful fall nite. I appear to be in the minority but some songs fell a little flat on the setlist, mainly the new material that didn't seem to excite the entire arena. After Wrigley and tonight, I feel like Ed is losing his hold on setlist flow. Can't put my finger on it, but I feel like the shows have had far worse natural progression, especially from the loud to midtempo material. Hard to get into a zone and stay there. Also haven't seen it mentioned that the boys were sloppy last night. Miscues, missed verses, stopped starts (happened for about 5 songs in a row in the middle of the set). Ed also had problems with his monitors all night and tore them out of his ear twice. So...a fun night, but not one I am betting the boys consider for a marquee DVD release :) Thanks for hosting all the Canadians Buffalo, and nice to see the development going on in the downtown core. Oh and the best slice of arena pizza I have ever had.

    Funny - I don't think Buffalo is very fond of Vincent Gallo, you could hear a pin drop when Eddie mentioned him as a favorite son of Buffalo :)

    Another awesome show with some gems like Rats and Immortality, Indifference and Baba. I thought the crowd was better in Pittsburgh though. Maybe that's the difference between 10C section versus not. Was 10c reserved Friday, and just public sale seats last night. There were people sitting down for most of the show, on their phones textin and stuff, like 6 empty seats behind us, it wasn't the same vibe as Pitt for me. But the set list was great, a lot of fun songs.

    For me is was the opposite. Opposite seating (public for Pittsburg with 4 clueless texting girls who left after the first encore Vs. 10 C ticket for Buffalo with great fans around) and opposite vibe. I personally preferred the Buffalo setlist as I thought this lead them to a more energetic concert where even Eddie realized they needed to pace themselves early on.

    I will miss the days when someone could get 10C tickets for more than one show as it makes a huge difference in my enjoyment of these shows.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I'm from Buffalo & this is the first time in the front row! Totally different experience...best show I've been to, and I've been going to shows since '92. Thank you to all the guys who let me get up front from the 4th row! Great crowd, great set list, great view! Comatose and Present Tense!!!! Wish they did one from Riot Act, but it's ok! Still best show of my life!

    Great show!

    - years of no GA last night was amazing. It was a clusterfuck though. If no one got hurt from the surge I'm glad, but it will happen if they security doesn't do a better job.
    - Indifference instead of YL was a great choice
    - I love the unique setlists now. Such a nice feel
    - Present Tense was amazing. As was Comatose, Once, DTE, I got shit. etc. Rats was different than usual but very awesome. Stone ripped into this classic guitar solo. Amazing!
    - When Ed mentioned something about a cool Buffalo logo and said he couldn't hear the reaction it was the Canadians chanting go leafs go!
    - free parking - wtf?

    Security needs to have a better system in place. For example, use the barricades and only let 1 line though starting at 6:15. I think security underestimates the passion for getting close, getting rail etc. Due to the seniority system many hardcore fans have never been anywhere near the stage. Now it's their time. They look at us as nice fans but once they say "GO" it's on. It seemed many people didn't get scanned. They just rushed though. Security was trying to hold people but fans blew by them with a surge. Just past the security they had this metal piece sticking out on the floor. So dangerous. I felt relief as I grabbed the rail, but it was chaos!
