    Going to leave my review next, but a quick question: How does Pearl Jam only have 10 Philly sell-outs? It seems like the have played there many, many more times than that (I mean I've even driven down there 5x for shows from up in North Jersey)

    The banner specifically said "South Philly" sellouts to only really encompass Spectrum ('03, '09 x 4) and Wells Fargo ('05, '13 x 2, '16 x 2). Leaves out Dobbs and Camden ('98 x 2, '00 x 2, '03 x 2, '08 x 2).
    Thats interesting, I would have sworn there were more. And how is they got a banner? No other artists have sold out Philly more then 10x? It feels like Pearl Jam is worthy of a Philly banner of course, but because it feels like they played down there 20-25x at least, not just 10.
    Billy Joel and Springsteen both have banners with 30 something and 50 something shows. Grateful Dead had a banner at the Spectrum, but their crew stole it at their last show there in '09

    Although I don't have quite as much show-going experience as many of the prior posters in this thread, having first seen Pearl Jam at what may have been the height of their popularity (March of 1994) plus 7 other times I cannot even think of how this show could have been any better. Not just playing TEN in its entirety to start the show (which I suspected as soon as Even Flow started due to the "10 Sellouts" banner), but how "on" everybody was and how good and fresh old standbys like RVM, Given to Fly, Leash and Corduroy sounded. Also, All or None was so much better than the album version and -- having seen Pink Floyd twice -- Comfortably Numb was incredible too.

    These guys treat Philly so well (and the love is mutual), it's like winning the lottery whenever they play here.

    Thanks, Ten Club, for the 3rd row seats in section 102!

    lol - I was wondering why they didn't have one.

    I still can't believe that happened - definitely a historical Pearl Jam show. I would've taken my own picture of the banner but I was right under it and that would've been a lousy shot. Hopefully trying to add points to their banner preempts ever playing in Camden again!

    The show that crowd that band! The only way I could end that night was waking up on the floor in the 15th precinct!
    All will be forgiven eventually.
    It's a "you had to be there" show to understand.
    Much thanks!

    I have woken up in the 15th before hahaha...I live like 6 blocks from there lol
    Wow, those guys don't mess. My phone died so I couldn't call anyone, not that anyone would answer at 4am anyway. They pointed me to the pay phone, I thought pay phones went extinct in 2004.
    You got off easy, had it of been Saturday night or Sunday, you ass would STILL be in that shithole till the "judge" decides to come into work on Monday! Not that I would know :anguished:

    I think people who say they wouldn't want to hear Ten front to back are full of shit.

    That was my 16th show, and easily in my top three, probably top two shows. Hartford '13 is tough to top.

    I'm glad we got Just Breathe. It's my wife's favorite, and we haven't heard it since her first show, Hartford '10.

    full of shit or brain dead. take your pick...
    While this show would have been a dream for me it still may not be everyones cup of tea. Why care what the minority think and find the need to insult them?
    I don't care. why do you care? are you the White Knight?

    Couple tidbits from last night from GA:

    Standing pre-show next to a centennial show guy and told him I was pissed I missed my white whale last night in Oceans and he replied, "well you're not getting it tonight"...fast forward first few chords of Once. I turned and asked, "what was that you said again?" :triumph:

    I think Ed missed announcing Jeff again. To which point Jeff went to back of stage bewildered and Stone kept looking at him and laughing. Did anyone else catch that or did I just imagine that in my drunkin' stuper?

    Well at least Ed mentioned Jeff's drinking problem. Two and a half glasses of champagne in new orleans

    Wow, that was intense. Thank God for naps. I got so worn out by dancing and singing my lungs out to Ten, that it wasn't until Encore 2 that I had energy again. I've never seen as much energy as the crowd had in Alive when most people realized what was happening. MSG has a lot to live up to. I'm especially excited for GA tix when they get to Quebec and I'm with my wife and 6 of my friends!

    My computer died last night/this morning. Can't upload pics or video from the show :anguished:

    Missed out on getting a poster. Thought I could get one when I got inside and I almost did, but the person right before me got the last one. I have a night 1 poster to trade if anyone wants to.
