Jeremys Spoken

Btw BEAUTIFUL version of Comeback

34 song set and I'm seeing a lot of "decent", "ok", "not bad". What has this band done to us?

Just never really got going with a flow. I thought that Satan's Bed would be the jump off but they never quite strung together enough to get the crowd really going like last night. I was GA this show and it was nowhere near as loud or as great a flow as last night. They picked up towards the latter half of the show but the expectations from last night had the bar set really high.

Nice! Thanks Sea!

Any time Ten-era b-sides come out to play, it's a very good thing. What a set list. The view from behind the stage was very cool.

WEAPONX24

Decent show....Enjoyed night #1 more though. That was something special!

blacknapkins

The thing I love most is the interplay between the band's excellence and the crowd's energy. Last night delivered all that and more. The set list was a well-paced mix of old and new songs; Given to Fly and Present Tense stood out to me as heart-felt. Thank you, Ten Club, for just being. There's nothing like seeing a favorite band so close to so many people who are as excited as I am to see them.

another great show. thought Monday was better but can't complain about any PJ show. they are just at a level that is beyond words. great 2 nights. last night Nothingman, MFC, Infallible, Breath, Solat, Better Man (yes it's a hit but if fucking rocks the shit live), Baba. WMMR shout out was cool. we are lucky in Philly to have a radio station that plays so much PJ. All in all a great 2 fucking nights again.

Very good show but not breaking my top 5. Loved Satan's Bed and Breath though. The extended seated low key beginning to Encore 1 sapped some energy from the less PJ savvy crowd up top, sadly, and it took them a while to get back into it so was a bit lonely being into it practically by myself, GA looked like it still worked for them. Hard to get as firm a connection with the band on 4 consecutive slower songs from so far away and with relatively small video screens with artistic camera shots on them a lot of the time. And then we had a group of three newbies right behind is talking the whole time throughout the show over the music, really annoying. At least they left during Encore 1.

Hate when I/we miss out on 10c lottery date and with this one if you missed you missed for the whole tour. Our bad, but it didn't matter at Brooklyn 1 like it did here.

This is nitpicking though as always no place I'd rather be but in a show listening to my favorite band. Thanks PJ and all you PJ freaks.

Breath and State of Love and Trust being played consecutively were a major highlight of this one.

I agree, it was great to hear them back to back and to hear my fav by them State of Love and Trust

Not a bad show in there but now I am really debating making the Hartford trip straight from the Phish AC show.

Solid ranking. I sort of agree with Frankie g.

Bk2 > Philly 1 > Philly 2

Great run. I'm exhausted. Can't wait for voodoo!

Great fun. Loved the Wash 2nd opener. My first Untitled/MFC so I was thrilled about that. The Breath/SOLAT combo was unreal. Loved Blood and I didn't notice the lack of crowd participation.

I thought Come Back was amazing. Even had a reworked guitar solo and an amazing extended outro! Funny that Eddie said they are going to finish this next song that they didn't finish last time, then played Parachutes. I'm pretty sure they did indeed finish Parachutes in 2009 (I don't remember it not being finished). Then 2 songs later they play the song they actually didn't finish at the Spectrum. I was trying to scream out the vocals to make up for all the people who didn't know or care about the song. Wanted PJ to know it was appreciated that they played it. Anyways, I was happy to hear Come Back, in case you didn't notice.

5 shows and finally my first Yellow Ledbetter. Then everyone was talking and bitching about stuff and I'm like SHUT UP! And this guy Jack walks up to me and says "remember me from 9th grade biology" and I'm like, yeah, but YLB is on. Sorry Jack - good to see you!

Some lulls in the set. I thought Infallible really was a drag last night - we didn't need it 2 straight nights. Mike was as hot as a giant blue star on Monday. Last night, more of just a regular old yellow star.

Another great show somewhere in the 30's, preferred Monday overall but this show had some amazing moments. Some of my personal favs were below.

Section 111 was filled with so many people buying beer,splilling beer while hugging their buddy with cup raised overhead like the statue of liberty torch (really), then having to go down the row to get rid of the beer, and then repeat the whole process until they dont comeback (yay) or better yet pass the hell out ! THIS ISN'T DAVE MATTHEWS BAND, a$$holes. :twisted: LOVE FRAT BOYS.....in their 30's and 40's

Solid show as always but Monday wins hands down for pure energy. Acoustic set was sub par. Another solid one in the books !

03. Nothingman

Amazing show last night, Cant wait for Baltimore Sunday. If anyone one has extras for Baltimore let me know, can meet up at the show.

BALTIMORE-2 Ticketmaster e-tix available for face value. Section 316 row E seats 5-6. PM me if anyone is interested.

rolenrock

I will agree with most and say that Night I was better than night 2... however.. Mind your Manners was SOOO Much better Night 2.. don't know what it was, but it was cleaner/crisper/ and the crowd was much more into it on night 2.

Philly 2 was too much of a copy to BRK2 imo..

Pendulum, wash, nothingman, LB, MYM, Hail Hail, Sirens, Present Tense, Betterman, Yellow Moon, Future days, BLOOD, Porch.... needs novelty to make it epic.

Stellar set list.... Amongst the waves and Hail Hail - B2B - awesome... Phenomenal GA PIT - 13 rows deep, but felt like it was only 3... Ed falling off speaker to the stage at the end of YLB to close the show - yet still holding a note: priceless...

spearhead

Fantastic show...went to both nights in Brooklyn, so I knew it would be hard to top either of those shows, but you know...TenClub came through with AWESOME seats for this oldtimer with a shitty number like 208xxx, and I took my daughter to her 2nd show after seeing them for the first time in Amsterdam last year!! She will be forever spoiled now!! This band means so much to me and my family ... Thank You very much.
