the show was amazing! the setlist was so rocking and opening with Sirens - no one saw that coming -- it all made sense once Ed mentioned that Steve wrote the set list.
Speaking of Mr Steve Gleason - I was watching NIN the 2nd night and standing near the rail off to the side. I look over to my right and there he was - in the special guests area right over the rail from VIP.
I really wanted to talk to him and get a pic but also didn't want to bother him. I did end up talking to his wife i believe - asking her to tell Steve thanks for such an amazing set list. She said they were all still in shock that it actually happened and that Steve was beyond excited about it. It was a really cool moment and she was so genuinely still in shock.
so i see this show was 24 songs long (short for normal pj show, i know it was a festival) what im getting at is how long did they play for? i am attending the bdo festival in australia next year and am curious how many songs we will get pearl jam have been given a 2 hour time slot which i guess will be extend. i am used to seeing 30+ song setlists and hope the setlists arent shortened by much

EPIC show! My daughter and I had tickets to see them again in Dallas two weeks later and we joked about wearing animal costumes to see if we could get close to Eddie!
I had always wanted to hear Yellow Ledbetter live. It was one of the songs that eluded me every show, so when I heard it start up, I got emotional! Cried through the entire song!

And after 2 amazing shows of Lightning Bolt frustration I finally got my favorite of the album "Getaway"
