    Areef was the 3rd, although I probably spelled his name wrong. And they sang on All night and Who You Are both nights!

    I wonder what was missing in 2008...

    2008 was a big disappointment. back up singers and pearl jam don't mix.
    Backup singers?? Who were they and on what tunes? I didnt see any 08 shows
    something like fonsy, sharice and someone else.. i cant remeber .. ed got the crowd all excited for special guests, and while they were probably very nice people, no one knew who they were and i think they sang the same songs each night right? all night?
    it was all night and maybe two others? I don't remember...it was terrible. at that point I thought pj had jumped the shark but they more than made up for it the following year in philly.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    I seem to remember background singers on All Night.

    Not a highlight for me.

    The 2008 shows weren't all that bad. The other ones are just too good that anything else feels sub par when compared.

    I listened to 5/21/10 yesterday. It's really good. So good I'm tempted to change my vote if I could.

    9/11/98 might be the greatest PJ show ever to my ears. First five albums are flawless so the Yield tour was unreal every night and this was the best show of the entire tour.

    This would be a great Vault show to have! The aud recordings you can download aren't as good as what they play on PJ Radio. I wonder what their source is?

    Night 2 of 2003 is a vastly under-rated show and is often forgotten because of the "DVD" night 1--- I'd put that show right up there with Night II of 2010

    East Rutherford ---> MSG II was a pretty special run, all that breathe campaigning happened before this internet was what it is now. It was a fantastic and real experience.

    I still love the music but the experience these days is so tainted, I'd love to expand on that but I need to leave now to get in line for a poster before it's too late (90 days before the show is the right time to line up right?)

    Peace and love

    It's the only one I attended, so therefore the best

    5/20/10 is very underrated, I will say that. My favorite version of "Sometimes."
    Those 2 were the best back to backs ever. Throw in Boston and Newark and it might be best run ever. 2008 was a bit meh, and they certainly made up fir it in 2010.

    9/11/98
    9/11/98 is in my top 3 shows that I've attended. It may not look like much now (because of the 3 hour, 30+ song sets they are doing now) but for that tour, it was pretty special. Amazing song selection (unreal Release, Immortality, unique MAN trilogy, Breath, SOLAT.....) Ed climbing the mic cord during Alive. The crowd was insane. Just an ridiculous show for what was my favorite tour ever.
