W.M.A. will be played for sure.

Good call... I'm thinking this will happen too!!!

DSTRUB

I have a feeling it will be an Angry setlist... Which could be awesome

gimmesometruth27

things have settled down here. i think ed will read up on what is happening here before making the setlist. if they announce that the grand jury has decided not to charge the cop with killing mike brown, ed could possibly incite a riot with an angry setlist. that whole scenario is a powder keg.

that said, i have a feeling it is going to be an amazing night.

Rain falls from the sky, drains into the Mississippi River, empties into the Gulf of Mexico, which is connected to the Atlantic Ocean...

Oceans as the opener, confirmed!

we had oceans opener in 1998. would be cool to have it again. but i gotta go with release. every time i have seen them start with release it has been an incredible set.

Suggestions for a sports bar or other good place to watch games on Thursday night, near Busch Stadium? (Within a mile or two would be fine).

In that same general area, what is the can't-miss place for STL BBQ?

watch the game at ballpark village. it is pretty awesome there. plus it is right next to the stadium. you can go inside the game from the 7th inning on without tickets during regular season games. we have done that a lot over the years.

Looks like it is going to rain the night of the show...do you think the band will open with Wash?

No worries about the weather, they can't tell what it will do 2 days from now, let alone next week lol

Every morning I wake up, and every morning I check this thread. Every morning I like the number that I see just a little bit more than the day before.

I highly doubt the protestors in ferguson will have any clue what set list will be played let alone who pearl jam is.
8 days. Wow, so pumped !!!!

Your not the only one !!!!

The build up to a tour when it gets this close is such a great feeling. Everytime !!

Go To Fire 43

Never get tired of the feeling of the tour getting close. Amazing. I just have a odd feeling it will be an off the beaten path opener something like Present Tense. But that being said I hope Release.

Present Tense was the opener in STL in 2003 I think. It was awesome!

My openers thus far (in order):
Wash
Sometimes
Long Road
Interstellar Overdrive/Corduroy
Release
Oceans
Oceans
Oceans
Release

So, for my "10 Club" show, if you're a betting man/woman, the odds on favorite will be Oceans.

I hope the surprisingly large number of people who have yet to hear Release get to hear it. It never disappoints me as an opener. That said, Present Tense can be a terrific opener. PT can potentially be great anywhere in a show.

I've heard Release 5 times, 3 of my last 5 shows, but never Oceans. Give me Oceans! Not that there's anything wrong with Release, some of my favorite shows opened with Release. I love Present Tense as well, always a highlight but I've never heard it as an opener.

Ok how about long road/release/oceans to open? All have a D chord in them...actually all end and start with a d....easy transition.

Now that's some analysis.

Openers in order
Of the Girl
Release
Release
Severed Hand
Why Go
Long Road
Hard To Imagine
Sometimes
Release
Release
Wash
Release

Would love to hear oceans and I think Present Tense as an opener like 03 would be an awesome twist.

Throw "Of the Girl" (selfishly still wanting to hear it live) at the end and that's a great four song start in my book

Papaljuice

I would love to hear them open up with Inside Job.

Anybody still need a room the night of the show? I can transfer the reservation I have at the Sheraton St. Louis City Center Hotel & Suites since I am not going anymore. PM me.

jdwyer02

Staying at Crown Plaza and driving in on Friday morning from Chicago. Should we drive to the show from there, walk, get a cab? Never been to St Louis but very excited to visit

HILDE

ISO 1 or 2 tickets for this show. Can anyone help. I'm coming from the MIL area so if anyone is coming to the area for the show here, well...

gimmesometruth27
