He ask the audience to do him a favor and sing happy birthday to his mother so he looks like he isn’t a terrible son. The audience obliges him.)

(Ed says his mom hawked her wedding ring so he could buy his first guitar. He paid her back eventually by working a minimum wage job at Long’s Drugs.

He notes that South Carolina has a similar bill pending S. 1203 and hopes that it will get rejected.)
24. Life Wasted

Does PJ know we understand they have politically charged opinions but, most of us have followed their music career, bought merch, tickets, Ten Club memberships, etc. because of their infectious musical talent, and not their opinions on social issues and politics? Outs the same when I go to the polls to vote. I don't choose my political candidates based on their taste in music.
Though I do appreciate PJ's online activism forum where they share with fans issues and causes they are currently championing.
So today we tried to start w a clean PJ slate, manage our expectations, and after shuttling the kids off to school, put on our "We
Really nice setlist tonight, great crowd, good sound, positive energy, and all around awesome vibes. Out of my three so far I think I slightly preferred Hampton, VA to the SC shows, but not by much. They all 3 were EXCELLENT! All 3 were very different in their way, but they are all probably my top 3 out of 9 shows I've seen.
That fucking Columbia poster is beautiful too! The colors pop and have such depth.

“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Great show. Nice, varied setlist tonight. It amazes me how this band puts together a different show every time and has always left me happy and grateful to have been there. Hope they don't wait 8 years to come back to Columbia!
Two guys in the row in front of me got kicked out, at best, for smoking pot. I'm betting they got arrested though. Don't know what you expected with the police literally watching you while you were smoking.
To the couple beside my wife and I (you would be section 106, row 25, seats 3 & 4), it was a pleasure to experience the show with you. You guys rocked! Safe travels back to Illinois. To the ladies in row 25 seats 1 & 4, you ladies rocked the fuck out! It's always great to be at a show where the people around you are as into it as much as yourself.
Peace, love, Pearl Jam!

That resulted in a slightly darker edge to the tone of the set, but add the tons of energy in there. It was epic.
And Oceans! And SOH. This tour has been fantastic. Hanging out with Bill Alexander and Mauro Escudero was a good time tonight! Made new friends, awesome show, it's just such a positive energy. It was a gorgeous day in Columbia. The arena was cool too. For a place that holds 19K, it felt intimate. I noticed a couple rough edges to some songs but overall a tight performance tonight. Ed has been on fire these shows, as has the entire band. His vocals on Low Light were powerful and he held the long note very well. I'm very glad I am able to hit 4 shows this tour.

irt, you know who you are:)
As a Vs. fan, I loved Greenville's setlist more but the sound was better tonight, plus Ed was channeling something strong... especially that last main set run starting with Light Years. He was a man possessed on RVM!!
Also, I never thought I'd catch Chloe Dancer/Crown Of Thorns, and that was just an unbelievable rendition. Highlight of the night for me (although it could've been I Got ID, Footsteps, Light Years, SoH... pick em...). Well and thoroughly exhausted. Thank you Pearl Jam!
I woke up Monday morning with a 103 degree fever which the doctor soon confirmed to be the flu. I've solidered on the last few days with one of the worst illnesses I've ever had.
But that couldn't stop me from seeing the best band in the world!
Thanks guys
