I've heard this referenced a number of times on this board. Does this refer to the 3 shows they played in Mansfield in 03? I just looked at the three setlists from those shows briefly and from a qiuck look it appears that YL is the only repeat? Anyone help me out on this?

if it was up to me they'd "experiment" for 5 dates- imagine how many songs they'd play.
2010: Newark 5/18 MSG 5/20-21 2011: PJ20 9/3-4 2012: Made In America 9/2
2013: Brooklyn 10/18-19 Philly 10/21-22 Hartford 10/25 2014: ACL10/12
2015: NYC 9/23 2016: Tampa 4/11 Philly 4/28-29 MSG 5/1-2 Fenway 8/5+8/7
2017: RRHoF 4/7 2018: Fenway 9/2+9/4 2021: Sea Hear Now 9/18
2022: MSG 9/11 2024: MSG 9/3-4 Philly 9/7+9/9 Fenway 9/15+9/17
The third show is 3 hours and 25 minutes long.

They did a 12 song acoustic preset before the opening band, then came out to play like 34 songs in the main set as well.

Songs like Evenflow, GTF, DTE, Alive etc. would be ten times more exciting if they played them like once every 3 or 4 shows.
PJ easily has enough great songs to play 3 completely different shows.
the acoustic set is great, but take that away and you have a rather mediocre show in my opinion. i think night 2 was by far the best.

I'm at MSG if they do. Those 3 Boston/Mansfield shows were incredible.....
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
especially night 3
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
The Ocean is full Cause Everyone's Crying
yep, yep, and yep.
me too...the double set...ahhhh...I had awesome seats too.
hmm that's funny, night 2 is one of my least favorite shows I've been to...
Me too - front row center - the best PJ expereince I have ever ever had - going to be tough to top that one........
SHOW COUNT: (159) 1990's=3, 2000's=53, 2010/20's=103, US=118, CAN=15, Europe=20 ,New Zealand=2, Australia=2
Mexico=1, Colombia=1
Upcoming: Aucklandx2, Gold Coast, Melbournex2
i'll help you out
obviously you're not that big of a fan if you didn't know about the Experiment
hope that helps
3 dates at MSG with no repeats would be out of control.
Thank you.
And, yes they were.
Same here.
Except night 1 was my front row night.
Sec 2 all 3 shows, Row B night 1, Row K night 2 and Row W night 3.
But they forgot to play Sonic reducer....damn this band, can't they be more versatile live??
Yep.
Same ol' shit all the time.
**yawn**
Yeah but that's only because of situations out of the control of the show itself.

They also left off Last Exit and Glorified G (of songs they were actually playing on that tour).

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!
I decided as I left that the one show wasn't gonna be good enough, so I bought a solo ticket to night 3, got out of work drove about 90mph home to shower (I was a garbageman then, so no go on the work to show), then I drove like a maniac as much as I could down to Mansfield. Unfortunately shitty fuckin traffic got in the way, and I missed the acoustic set before Footsteps, which they started playing as I was walking into the place (I only wish Eddie hadn't butchered the words so badly, since that's another favorite of mine...it still kicked ass though).
I loved night 1 because it was my PJ cherry popped, but night 3 was amazing. Wishlist (not a favorite of mine) was incredible with the Why Can't I Touch It? tag (we knocked that one out of the park), and I loved the various covers, especially the Clash and Ramones covers since I'm kind of a big time punk fan. And then Mike threw a lick of "More Than A Feeling" into the Yellow Ledbetter solo. Forget about it, just a ridiculous show.
Altogether, it was an incredible experience, and it kinda set me up for mild disappointment this time around. I was expecting a few less repeats at the Boston shows this year, and while they were both incredible, it wasn't quite the same feeling as those 03 shows where we knew what was going on as of night 1.
Any time I listen to those three shows, I start on night 1 and go all the way through night 3.
I don't recall eddie butchering the lyrics at all on footsteps.
he did on the last verse...
Yup, hsi timing was off, and he kinda inserted parts earlier and then later.
But like I said, hearing it was incredible enough to offset that.
Plus I find the fuck-ups to be a fun part of the show. I;ve heard multiple small mistakes on Even Flow, and the time he fucked up Wishlist after introducing it as a song that was simple enough for a monkey to have written it was priceless.
The fuckups illustrate how organic the shows are. They're not some processed, perfect every time things. The guys mess up and it makes it all seem that much more refreshingly human to me.
I agree.
At Boston II this year Ed made remark before Elderly Woman about how they were going to try this one, but they've been fucking it up everytime.
Then they played it flawlessly........and went on to play the debut of Parachutes, and fucked that one up instead. Funny...
