Riding train back from show now. Was in vip3 section which was probably about 80% people who were primarily there to see Pearl Jam. Crowd off a little, probably from combo of no alcohol at site, being waaaay much farther back seating wise than used to (vip3 section equivalent of rear lawn seats for most outdoor venues they play), and speech after speech that seemed like same message over and over for about 30 minutes after Beyonce ended. Just when you thought it was time to go on, they introduced another speaker, so some boos near end. Irony is these are probably the same people who have no issues waiting hours in line for Ames poster. Alive was very good version. Lightning Bolt maybe a little better than usual version, rest of "first set" pretty standard. Ed's voice on the non acoustic stuff maybe a little deeper/off compared to usual. Imagine definitely the highlight, especially since in Central Park. Redemption Song with Beyonce very cool too, broken up by Nelson Mandela speech. Nice version with them trading verses. Was kind of hoping for her husband to come on next and do 99 Problems again like Made in America but got the expected RITFW. Quality effort but if I would have paid extra premium on secondary market tickets or traveled a long way, I'd be a little disappointed.

Making my way home and overall I'd say great night. My highlight was getting separated from my friend and chillin alone off to the side in VIP 2. A security guard comes and asks me why I'm alone so I say I lost my partner. He then tells me it's too nice of a night to be alone and let's me into VIP 1. I then make my way about 3 off the rail and rocked it hard as ever. Sometimes the stars align and good things happen!!

Perhaps I'm a hater, but he didn't really need Beyonce for Redemption song, why you need circus performers? Unless they made him do it. At least it wasn't the whole band

I'm pretty sure nobody makes Eddie Vedder do anything.

I don't think you are a hater, but I don't think that Eddie was forced to do that, maybe it was his idea, or it was Beyoncé's, or someone of the production asked it, and they were ok to do it, who knows? I think that Ed or PJ don't have to prove or account for anything, let alone, do something they don't want to do...
... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

From what I've seen Ed loves to pair up with people. Every time they tour with others they always get some people back on stage to do group performances. From Sleater Kinney to Band of Horses, to more people than I can even remember the names. Pearl Jam is always bringing people up from the opening band or whoever happens to be around to do songs with them. IMO it was a foregone conclusion that Beyonce would do some song with them. (I still think Hunger Strike would have been good!) This isn't a new thing.

Are the girls playing tambourine near Ed during this his daughters? Reminds me of an interiew Ed gave a long time ago about how he had never been to NYC until he was in the band. I wonder how many of the shows they actually attend. Must be pretty cool experience for them.
