Yeah, Zagreb had Education, Gimme some truth, All or none, Thin air....wtf?
so far Zagreb is the winner, definately better set list but there's still time, probably they'll play a few rarities. They must damn it, it's the last show...
ok the show isn't over yet. Lets wait and see how the show plays out before we start bitching about the setlist and saying what show is better.

I know the trilogy and the songs etc, but i dont know the exact meaning?
care to share?
from what I understand its about a relationship of a mother and her son..hense the title mamason.
Alive....you all know about Ed finding out the person he called dad was his stepdad, not his biological dad.
Once is like the character has all this rage and ends up becoming a seriel killer or something.
Footsteps...the character is now on deathrow or about to be executed...not sure...and is thinking back about what he's done and stuff.

Without a drummer or a singer the trio began actively looking for bandmates, and even looked outside the Seattle scene for people with whom they had no previous connection. One of these people was former Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Jack Irons. A five-song demo was given to Irons to see if he would be interested in joining the band, and to distribute to anyone he felt might fit the singing bill. Irons passed on the drumming invitation, but gave the demo to his basketball buddy and local San Diego singer Eddie Vedder during one of their hiking trips. Vedder had been the lead vocalist for Bad Radio, a local rock group. As legend has it, Vedder listened to the tape shortly before going surfing. While he was out in the water, the music played in his head and the lyrics came to him.
He rushed back home and in one flurry of creativity recorded the vocals to three of the songs ("Alive", "Once", and "Footsteps"). The songs were what Vedder would later describe as a mini-opera. They formed a story of incest, madness and murder that became known to fans as the "Mamasan trilogy".

LOL since you only have 4 posts I dunno if you are joking or not. I hope you are lol.
Alive, Once, Footsteps. Its all one story, spread out over 3 songs.
I know the trilogy and the songs etc, but i dont know the exact meaning?
care to share?
Once - later turning to murder
Footsteps - death row
that's the very very quick summation
from what I understand its about a relationship of a mother and her son..hense the title mamason.
Alive....you all know about Ed finding out the person he called dad was his stepdad, not his biological dad.
Once is like the character has all this rage and ends up becoming a seriel killer or something.
Footsteps...the character is now on deathrow or about to be executed...not sure...and is thinking back about what he's done and stuff.
Simply put, they're about Eds troubled childhood, and his relationship with his mother and estranged father.

LOL I like this explaination better.

I'm no dude! Dudette!

LOL I doubt it, but I am not 100% sure on that. What a killer 1 2 punch to end the first encore tho.
Hanging?!? Doing pull-ups right?
I'm just saying that operas usually rely on the drama of sex and blood and conflict and it's no exception just because it's a mini one.
LMAO I have no idea. I just did a copy and paste. You'll have to wait for the fanviews and pics haha.
Awesome! Second time in a row, did it in Zagreb too!
