    This show was the middle leg of my 3 show US Tour and it didn't disappoint.

    Firstly "Garden" closed out hearing all of "Ten" for me and what a great song live.
    I was also able to tick "Wash" and "All Night" off my yet to hear list. Loved "Wash" even though EV got stuck with the second verse.

    The encores were also littered with gems inc. "NAIS", "Come Back", "Breath" and "Crazy Mary".

    All in all, a great night!

    It was a great night. I've been listening to the boot the last couple of days and reliving the moments.

    87 shows and this is my first fan view...<br />
    During Porch Ed left the stage on Stones side and shook hands with people on the rail walking towards Mike's side. When he got to me, he grabbed my hand and held on longer. What happened then was unlike anything I've ever experienced! Ed climbed the rail to the top (not the step below) and stood immediately over me. (Yes, I have seen this happen often, but he's never stood practically on top of me!). My friend Richard held his left hand while Ed held the mic in his right. I held both legs up and tried to keep him upright, with Pete's help from behind him. Ed was leaning hard and it was just such a cool thing to experience. I'm hoping video exists of this. Please send me a PM if you have a picture or short video.<br />

    Decent photo my gf was able to get.

    That is fucking fantastic. Such an amazing experience. Just about to listen to the Memphis bootleg for the first time.

  • Thanks for the mention on the Jeff shirt toss. I never in my wildest dreams thought my wife and I would be rewarded with a signed setlist. Just wanted to see Jeff smile. Got both and it made our year. Amazing.

    Alskaroke, I was standing in row 2 right next to you on your left! I saw it when Jeff gave you the setlist! I even ask you to let me get a picture of the setlist on my phone. Awesome! The show was great and so were the people around me

    GA line outside right before doors open. My Wife and I saw a guy smoking a cig on the roof of the westin. It looked like he had a notebook in his hand. His mannerisms looked like it could have been ed. He smoked, looked out into the crowd, kinda leaned over the edge a bit looking out. I know for a fact the band was on the top floor. Clothes did not match what he had on stage (his "uniform" for the tour).

    Did anybody see the same thing? Listening to the boot again and I remembered it. Don't think I saw anyone on the fan view speak of it. Maybe it wasn't him...but it was weird how the guys mannerisms and movements were just like ed. But smoking while he was sick on the hotel roof like 1-2 hrs before the show? Not so unlikely I think. Really great show...it is one of the ones I appreciate so much more as time goes on.

    Anyway, I think it was him....if so, pretty damn cool and you could really see him looking at the crowd, contemplating, having a quick smoke, etc.

    true to the sound of the building...big, boomy, bouncy, and echo-y

    I want to go back!  I really missed seeing PJ this year.
