    1st show for me last night and I am blown away. I'm not sure I've fully processed the night yet! They sounded so fantastic and they were so obviously having such a good time up there. What an amazing gift they have, to enthrall so many people with their music. The place was packed and very very into the show.

    I was as excited as a little kid while waiting for them to come on, and when they did.....My God...Release! Then it just got better and better. Mike McCready is a beast. His energy!! Ed's voice sounded great and what an entertainer he is up there. They all deserve every accolade they get and more.

    Thank you 10 Club for great seats, and thank you Pearl Jam for a great night. Cannot wait until I can see them again. Color me officially addicted.

    Truly great show. The intensity in that arena last night was incredible.

    It's also great to see the nice comments about the city from out of towners. I'm glad people ventured out and saw that Detroit is a great place. Hopefully they make it a point to come back soon!! The Joe was a fantastic venue to see them in

    Wow, what a fucking show! As soon as I heard the opening chords of Release, I knew it was going to be good. Then Oceans, holy shit. Then Go, Dissident, Once, awesome. Mike was on fire tonight, Ed sounded great. I couldn't believe how loud the crowd was, hopefully that will make them want to come back to the D.

    Went to Greektown afterwards for some more drinks and Blackjack, and won enough to pay for the entire nights drinks. So I left with more cash that I had withdrawn from the ATM before the concert. Great night

    When I first looked at the cities this tour would go to, and thought "If I could go to only one... which city do I think will just blow the others away with the show they get?" And I couldn't decide between Lincoln and Detroit. But Detroit got the edge, and had I been able to go to one, this would have been it. And I would be one happy f'in camper if I had gone, let me tell you that, wow, between the energy, setlist (especially the covers and intros), and just it being Detroit Rock City, it sounds like an absolute winner! Happy (and jealous!) for everyone who got to experience that!

    To the guy my dad I met in merch line who named his son Lukin, I hope you read this! We freaked out for you when Ed announced he was there, and I screamed just as loud for "Man of the Hour." Hope you held the tears back :) What a wicked show for you!! Cheers!

    I can't believe it is already over! Who knows how long I'll have to wait until they come back around.

    Still can't get over how fun that was last night. I was dancing and singing the whole night, and was drunk as hell. I'm feeling all of it today

    Fuck ... what an incredible show, the energy at the joe was just unbelievable. Great setlist and was super happy they played Imagine. I really hoping they play the joe 1 more time before its razed.

    I can't believe how amazing that show was. I really wanted to hear Release and Indifference and got both, as well as Oceans, I mean come on. Ed did an awesome job on Imagine. The floor was literally bouncing during several of the loud bangers. The crowd was really loud all night and very into it, there were few times I could not even hear Ed the singing along was so loud. The sound was great where my seats were in section 123.

    The look on Ed's face when he forgot the words to Indifference was hilarious. The whole band was having a blast as well, Ed trying karate kick Mike, Stone was bouncing around several times, Ed smashing the light and his guitar.

    Can't wait for the next one, post show depression kicking in already.

    Awesome night in Detroit! Great crowd, great energy, great setlist. The band was having a blast. Ed was super chatty and pretty funny last night. And destructive. :) I thought for sure he hurt himself when he fell on what was left of the globe. Would've loved to hear some Yield or more No Code.. But at this point, they have soooo many awesome songs that even the songs left off the setlist might be your favs. Show 23 is. Wrap! :)

    What a terrific night. Met so many great people to experience the night with. From James and Louis, who we crossed the border with, to the couple from Kitchener, and the Detroit lawyer and his wife (on a Getaway from their 2-yr old twins) to the Dad and his 8yr old daughter rocking out, and a guy named The Hurricane. Everyone looking out for one another, and enjoying the experience in their own way. Highlights for me included Black Red Yellow, Imagine, the Release/Ocean opener, and belting out Betterman with all the other faithful in attendance (and at home)!
    Thank you 10C for the seats!
    Can't wait until the CDN '15 tour!! Thank you boys. Another special evening.
