Was anyone at this show? Do you remember when Ed saw himself in the Jumbotron and started picking his nose?... Great Show, Brought me to tears
I guess it was the beatings... made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize

    Great show! Loved every minute of it. :) As always!

    That was my boyfriends 1st Pearl Jam show. We both rocked out the entire time (BF was a bush supporter at the time, not too big on all of the political talk, but he understood, and said he had a "new found" respect for Ed after the show, both musically, and as a human being.).

    Actually, that was the last time I've seen the boys live. :( I missed them this tour, I won't make that mistake again!
  • I too was there and it stands out to me for 3 reasons:

    1. The unusual slow start while people were still getting there was cool.

    2. Getting Why Go for the first time in 8 years was awesome.

    3. Being able to see the Buzzcocks open up was a nice bonus.

    That was my last show too and it hurts my soul to have to say that. Hear of any shows coming to the area this year?

    I hope Ed picking his nose didn't bring you tears? :)

    It was a great show, different. It was almost like the first few songs should of been played sitting in chairs.

    Yes! I missed the Buzzcocks, and I was one of those "late people". It was an outstanding show though, even from the lawn!

    Well, they did play MCI over the summer. The latest theory is that if there is another small tour here in the US, that Charlotte NC would be about as close as they might get. That is all just rumor and theorizing though, there is no real reason to believe that there will be another American Leg of this tour.

    I'd bet we could all caravan down there though. :)

    After looking at all of the pics folks had from the Gorge, I think I'll be making the trip out there to see them next time around.

    I had fourth row center. Great show! Making the round trip drive from New Jersey in a single day was rough!
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
