08. Lightning Bolt
09. Tremor Christ
10. Wishlist
(Ed spots a phone in the crowd that has a scrolling message on it. Ed asks to see the phone. It gets passed up to him. He seems disappointed when he learns it is a message and not the lyrics. He thanks the person for the phone and sets it down behind him. A basketball gets on stage and gets passed back to Matt. Ed says, “We are getting all kinds of gifts up here. I like that t-shirt you got there buddy. And that blouse would look pretty good on my wife. In fact that blouse would look pretty good on Mike McCready.” Ed asks Mike if he ever got naked in Leeds. Mike seems to think it was mostly just Germany where he got naked, maybe England somewhere...definitely Dublin.)
11. Who You Are
12. Ghost
(Ed says, “I fucked that song up. I went into the last verse too early, so I am going to take a picture of me fucking up.” He has the camera that was handed to him earlier and starts to take a “selfie”. Jeff admits that he also fucked up so Ed tells him to get in the picture. Once the photo is taken Ed says, “Thanks, my daughter is gonna love that one.” and sets the phone down behind him again.)

17. Don’t Gimme No Lip
(Ed pleads for “less war, maybe we can’t get rid of all war but how about less war” He goes on to say that we all want the freedom to live and dream but the sad fact is war is big business. The next song is about someone on the wrong side of that business.)
18. Army Reserve
19. Present Tense
(The audience chants for Jeff to sing. Ed suggests “Fernando” by ABBA because once he starts the audience will take over. Ed then begins to dramatically sing “Fernando” while Jeff laughs and shakes his head no. The audience does indeed take over and sing.)
20. Given To Fly
21. Setting Forth

Encore Break 1
(Ed discusses how cancer effects everyone and what a difficult fight it is for the person with cancer and for their families. He talks about his cousin John who recently succumb to cancer. Ed’s Chicago Bears #34 shirt is the same shirt he wore when John passed away. Ed goes on to say that a young man named Jonathan lost “unfair” fight with cancer and wants to play the next song for him)
23. Man Of The Hour
24. All Or None
25. Fatal (a request by a woman attending her 30th show. Ed hopes the audience won’t mind and promises the three minutes to play it won’t be deducted from the overall time the band plays tonight)

Encore Break 2
(Ed thanks long time crew member George Webb who “works for the band every single day.

The band were in such a good mood tonight, lots of laughing and joking
stone singing was great, then tried to get jeff to sing a few times and Ed got the crowd going with 'fernando'.
ed explained why he had been wearin the same 34 jersey most of the tour, unfortunately his uncle passed away and that was what he was wearing when he passed. This then linked to the petition on the board to play man of the hour.
fatal was another request for someones 30th show, little slip up at the end but they saved it
all or none was another great treat
ghost, those opening chords were rocking
very long singalong outros on sirens (with improv) and black
All in all, a fantastic show

I'll never forget this day. 8th of July 2014. I was there.
Some thoughts:
Loved the shout out to "Live at leeds" as I listened to it yesterday while walking over to Leeds university to check out the plaque. Thought they were gonna play Young man blues when Mike teased with the riff.
The Real Me was GREAT! They are so good at playing Who-songs! As a huge Who-fan I feel lucky to have gotten 4 different songs in 3 shows!
Who you are was great, the outro was epic! The same goes for Present Tense, one of my holy grails!
Smile sounded awesome! Is Jeff and Stone switching instruments the way they usually do it?
Thank you Pearl Jam.

Seen a lot of bands over the years but tonight was just on another level.
My 12 year old daughter's first show and if she lives to be 120 she'll not see a better show.
Great venue, amazing crowd and the band's not bad either!
Thanks 10C for great seats and thanks PJ for being phenomenal
Best show I've been to yet!
Tremor Christ.... speechless
Awesome cover of All along the watchtower!
Fatal
6 songs of Ten!
So many highlights... Possibly the best set I've witnessed.
Bring on Milton Keynes baby!
That was a band having a good time on stage.
PJ and their concerts are something special... the band don't play as though they're on autopilot, never just play the "hits", and the crowd participation is something else. Don't think I've been to any other band concert where the crowd are so vocal with singing along. Love it.
Tonight's "Sirens" was beautiful with the crowd, Eddie seemed really taken aback by the crowd continuing the ending.
