    GA, maybe 12 rows or so between Stone and Ed. A big bucket of wow. I heard people here the past couple days and just before the show speculate what album they would cover. I was convinced there was no chance it would happen again so close to Moline, I'm sure I would have given crazy odds to anyone willing to wager. With the fast open and Baba (with lights up) in the 5 slot, you simply had to believe Eddie when he said they were doing something special. Love Brain of JFK, about halfway through I remember thinking hmmm. Became pretty obvious once Faithfull started what was happening, they never took their foot off the gas. I've been around overserved crowds, and crowds more interested in their phones than the show, but this bunch really seemed pumped and engaged the entire night.

    DVD Conspiracy Theory alert - Ed noticed someone with a shirt of the Flemion brothers (The Frogs) that said Old Milwaukee on the top and gently laid it over his monitor facing the crowd. He took his time giving instructions to the cameraman to get in position for a good shot of him with his hand over the shirt paying respects to his friends, and it just seemed like more than someone would typically do just for the video screen at the show. Here's to hoping for a video compilation of this unforgettable tour.

    Would have loved the show specific shirt, they only had S by the time I got there (definitely interested if there was an extra L somewhere out there for trade). I didn't leave Wisconsin empty handed though

    Good choice to leave with a case of that...it was my beverage of choice at Major Goolsby's before the show and I live 10 min from the brewery.

    The last show on this tour for me. I will miss the good time meeting with fellow fans and listening to great music. Great show in Milwaukee (Yield, WI). Attended the No Code show in Moline and now the Yield show in Milwaukee.

    One of my buddies is a huge Packers fan and is a bit jealous of not being at this show.

    New Glarus Brewing is good beer, especially spotted cow, not too far away from me either.

    Sitting at work being totally unproductive trying to figure out what I just saw over the past 4 nights. Absolutely incredible. Can't believe I was lucky enough to be at both Moline and Milwaukee. I've never seen the guys having as much fun as they appear to be having now. Best fucking band in the land. Thank you PJ!!

    Yield is probably my favorite album to listen to front to back. Doesn't mean it has my favorite songs, but probably my favorite album in totality. Very fortunate to be there for that moment last night. All I wanted from Moline/Milwaukee was to hear Brain of J. I got it twice. You just never know what may happen.

    I always love to hear Rats live too. That was a treat. I'll echo the sentiments of some folks on here. The "big" songs were really well done. The jam sessions were plentiful and skillfully executed. Not only were they well done by the band, but the crowd backed it up for sure. RVM was really exceptional, and the jam session on Crazy Mary was surprisingly impressive as I'm not usually a big fan of that one.

    On the flip side, the sound was noticeably worse than Moline in the building. We were in Section 208, so maybe it was just a back of the building issue. The lead guitar was turned up too high from the start of the show. Pendulum was a rough listen due to the audio issues. The softer songs sounded smooth, and it seemed to improve through most of the show. I was also surprised by the number of repeats from the Moline show. Now it's not like it was the day before, but they went back to the Ten well pretty hard. Even Daughter or Better Man would have been a nice changeup between the two shows. I'd always love to hear more PJ originals too instead of 5 covers (you could really say 6 although they did do a full band Sleeping By Myself on LB).

    All in all, I love seeing the band any chance I get. This show will always be known as the Yield show for me, and it will be special in its own way for that and the crowd participation. I hope the boot sounds better than the audio in the venue did at parts of the show.

    Side note: never ever take Ten Club for granted. This was the first show since 2006 that I didn't have Ten Club tickets. It's a different world out there surrounded by drunks. Folks in our aisle went for beer at least 3 times each during the show. Multiple people fell on the stairs as well due to drunkenness. Nothing like hanging with the Faithful on Friday night. Much love to all the fellow Ten Clubbers and the Ten Club themselves for being great concert-goers. I've been spoiled.

    Phenomenal show. Yield was released during my junior year of high school and became a big favorite of my Pearl Jam fan friends. I was slower to catch on, but really enjoy the album these days. Still jealous of Moline getting No Code, but this went 98% of the way toward making up for that.
    Everything I recorded last night -
    Baba O'Riley/MFC/Low Light/Push Me, Pull Me/All Those Yesterdays/Happy Birthday to Tom Petty/I Won't Back Down/Jeremy

    Aaron rodgers on his radio show today said he actually requested Society. You probably aren't going exactly what you want when you're a bear killer. :D

    I really hope the bootleg starts with "red dot" and ends with humus.

    That's funny. I'm glad for all of those there, that they didn't play society!

    Same question I asked for the no code show: did Ed reference the yield thing at all? Other than'flip the side'.

    He said at the end of the Yield part, they were going to play another album called Lost Dogs.

    Was at show with daughter on the rail by Stone. I got some wine and she got a tambourine...Yield...and so much more..... My daughter needed an experience to help her understand the experiences that make life worth living. I have no words that matched the look on her face at the end of the show last night.

    Thank you Pearl Jam!
    Peace, Love, Pearl Jam

    Wow. I was upset when I missed my 2nd favorite album but now I missed Yield and I'm speechless. I would probably have finished if I was in the building

    Definitely a truly incredible weekend that I will never forget with my boys from Dallas, Portland, Chicago, Columbus, and Des Moines. We had been planning the Moline/St. Paul/Milwaukee run since the tour began, and they absolutely blew it out to end an incredible weekend last night.

    I have to slightly give the nod to Moline over Milwaukee as my favorite show, but just by a hair. Those two shows definitely rival PJ20 for me.

    Back to reality tomorrow. What a weekend.

    This band is the best ever, and they always deliver.

    34th show for me. I hit Detroit, Moline, Milwaukee and now sitting in a bar in Denver in just amazement of what I have experienced the last 6 days. Milwaukee was fabulous last night - at red dot I thought something crazy was going to happen and then when baba hit at the 5 spot you knew game on. I love Yield for a lot of different reasons and to see that in its entirety - crazy awesome! Thank you PJ!!! Let's have a great Denver show!!!!!

    I called this one! I told my co-worker and only other diehard PJ fan at work that they would likely play "Yield" front to back at either Milwaukee or Denver. Greg, what about it??

    Great show totally unexpected to get yield in full especially after moline I was surprised I picked up an extra 10c res which ended up on the floor in the back section not sure the member # but I was shocked at how few people knew they were playing all of yield in fact a lot of people looked bored at the song selection

    I enjoyed it and was excited but after being lucky enough to be in ga for moline the crowd was a let down in sec 9

    Anyway have fun in Denver I'll be super jealous if they get all of binaural

    went to St. Paul and Milwaukee. random thoughts,

    1) agreed with the comments that it matters a lot where you're sitting. I'm not sure I will sit outside of the Club again (we didn't win the lottery in St. Paul). next time I will make sure one way or another that my wife and I are in the Club seats. it's not the same when people around you are sitting and not singing. and the same with the sound -- it can matter a lot where you're sitting, I'm not gambling on that again. our St. Paul seats were only OK.

    2) my wife and I had our best seats ever for Milwaukee so that may have been the difference, but we thought the crowd was amazing in Milwaukee. as a Wisconsinite I can say that I'm always glad to be surrounded by friends from Illinois ... at a PJ concert :)

    3) MOO -- I think this could have been a longer show but Ed was completetly exhausted by the end, it was my impression anyway that he shut it down.

    4) I love Yield. couldn't have picked a better album for me, and a lot of us.

    5) first show for our son and nephew. they were stunned. My son has seen a lot of concerts (Tool, Rush, STP, real shows) but there is nothing like a Pearl Jam concert when the crowd is this crazy.

    6) my least-favorite day of the year ... the day following a show. I really don't want to go back to work.

    as always, and as Ed said at Wrigley, "these are good people." met so many really really good people in the past few days.

    peace,

    Rocky
