    Just got to Moline and after last nightI am not expecting too much. WHAT A SHOW! It was #87 for me and a great night to have GA's. Band was amped from the jump and fed off the detroit energy.

    to the kid from Brazil that I gave my GA to. I hope u enjoyed that show. I saw u on the rail having a blast.

    Only my 4th show since 2003... BUT.. easily the best. Just an absolutely magical set from a band that seemed genuinely humbled by the reception. Here's to hoping it won't be another near-decade before they're back in Michigan. Glad I didn't sit this one out after losing the 10c lottery. Even being in upper bowl was a great place to spend the evening.

    What t-shirt was Ed wearing underneath his button down shirt?? It honestly looked like it said Imagine Dragons lol.

    What an incredible show! Alot of times you go see PJ and the crowd makes the show. They help lift the band up. Whether it's someone being sick or the grind of being on the road, or whatever. Last night however PJ lifted the crowd. I haven't seen a band pulsate energy at it's audience like that in a LONG time. They were absolutely firing on all cyllinders last night. I doubt the band reads this but if they do, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR DUSTING OFF BLACK RED YELLOW!!!!!!!!
    Great show guys.

    Show # 10 for me and I almost didn't go after getting stymied in the10club lottery...thankfully my buddy got GA Floor!! (Thanks Chris!!!)
    Had a different impression of the vibe of the show than everyone else posting. Apparently, I must have been deafened early on in the set (was about 20 feet from Mike who was absolutely killing it!!!) but it kinda seemed quite between songs. When I woke this morning my ears were still ringing pretty good so i am assuming it was just my hearing, haha!!! Anyway, the sing-alongs were definitely heard loud and clear and there were a pile of them (Nothingman, Betterman, Corduroy, Evenflow....). My favourite was, without a doubt, Not For You...that one almost knocked me over!!
    Without a doubt the most chatty I have ever heard Ed...with the set-list they were firing I could have done with less yackety-yack, lol!! In the end no complaints and plenty of kudos!! Go, Black and Light Years were spectacular thanks in no small part to Mike..my god was he in fine form!?!?
    Another great show and possibly the last in a long line of great shows I have seen at The Joe over the years. What a way to go out!!!

    Show 37 was fantastic! I wrote earlier yesterday that 23 years ago I lived in Auburn Hills. My friend Andy who worked at Harmony House Records gave me the heads up about Ten. It never left my car for weeks. I saw PJ for the first time on 11/22/91 at The State as they opened for Pumpkins and Peppers. An unforgettable night that was back then. 23 years later I flew to see them in the city where it all started for me. Detroit was very welcoming, it was neat to be inside the Joe for the first time, reminds me a lot of the LA Sports Arena. Pearl Jam delivered and I am thankful for winning the G/A lottery. Second row on Mike Fucking McCready's side made another unforgettable night. Next up, Mil-rock-ee on Monday!

    Unbelieveable from start to finish- The Joe Louis Arena was a loud organic animal - The love of the fans toward the band and the songs is matched by the bands love and appreciation for the fans and the experience.
    The singing was perfect and beautiful every song, through and through.
    It could easily be my favourite show of the seventeen I have seen over ten years. How is this possible?
    Highlights were : the three hour merch line-up, meeting people from Washington D.C, Columbus, Detroit, L.A., London, Strathroy people from all over North America, Ed's voice, guitar smashing, Oceans, the big screen shots of the band members who were clearly happy and humbled by the incredible, energetic crowd, Missing the last bus out of town, 32 songs, 2 hours 50 minutes, Imagine, Spin the Black Circle, Not For You, Release, Nothingman, Go, every freaking song.
    No one is exaggerating here - this was an amazing show.
    Thank You Pearl Jam and Detroit Rock City.
