    Hey anybody have printed on tickets from stubhub or ticketmaster that say the time of the show is 8:00pm instead of 730pm. Just want to help my friend out who thinks he's about to get scammed. Let a brotha know

    Friend had TM tix last night that had 8:00 printed while my 10C tix said 7:30, so legit.

    Fantastic show and the 20th show for me. I was in 105. The sound in the Garden is so good. My favorite show I've been to since my last show in the Garden in 2010. Shows on the east coast are just at a different level than west coast shows IMO. There were many times I could barely hear myself singing. I thought the crowd was great and the set was really good.

    I kinda laughed when Taking to the Streets started, but Ed sounded amazing on it. By the end I was loving it. And Chloe/Crown was perfect. Sounded amazing.

    Very thankful to be in the building. Awesome meeting shetellsherself, InLukinsFridge, Branscop, and Tempo_n_groove. Again, thank you all for your help. There's no better way to celebrate a birthday.

    Following this tour has me fuckin wiped out. Especially that I had to work the day after every show (besides Hampton).
    Do I have anything left for tonight?
    Does pj have any more tricks up their sleeves ?
    Can MSG bring it AGAIN tonight?

    I guess we'll see

    I'm the same way. I am freaking tired as hell at work right now. I'm about to teach the Kennedy assassination to 8th graders all day. It's gonna be a long one.
    Perfect time for a 2 day Kennedy movie for your class so you can nap

    - The band sounded great and put incredible energy.
    - Show was flawless but the songs were mostly kept in short form, not many extended versions. (Ed even omitted the wha-di-haha part in alive)
    - Good energy in the pit at Mike side, but in the middle and Stone side were dead, just standing people.
    - not many twists in the setlist (too many Ten, vs and yield songs)
    - yellow shirt guy stealing the tambourine from the lady was disgraceful.

    What's your part, who you are?

    Great show, but the later part was ruined for us. I wish Ed had reminded the fans to take care of one another like he usually does. Some idiot threw a full beer from an upper level that hit my wife on the head during Crown of Thorns. Luckily she is ok and the bump faded, but you'd think Pearl Jam fans would understand the importance of taking care of one another and making attending a concert safe.

    Alcohol ruins concerts for people. Simple. There always someone who just can't handle it or goes overboard and ends up ruining other people's night. Its ridiculous

    Questions for the folks in GA (the pit):

    1. How early did it fill up?
    2. How easy/hard was it to move around?
    3. How easy/hard was it go leave to grab beers and return?

    Gracias, amigos. Sounds like last night was great -- looking forward to seeing many of you tonight.

    First set was good
    Second set average at best
    Third set shit and predictable

    Last night would rank near the bottom of my 50+ concerts over the years. They are playing great but PJ for me meant a lot more than musical skill. The passion is gone. They aren't even touring behind albums anymore - and after hearing the last two - that may be a good thing.

    The reality is they're just in a different headspace to me these days and I can't fault them for being older and family men now. I still hold on to every lyric with the same intensity as Eddie 10-15 years ago. It means a lot to me and I can't relate to where they are now, dad rockers performing to reminisce about what was, not about what is.

    And finally, play Avocado you pussies. I love that fucking album, third for me after Yield and Vs. They were so passionate about it when it came out and it showed on stage. To just ignore it entirely a decade (exactly today) later is criminal.

    Black solo was otherworldly.

    YES!!!! Mike McCready is fucking insane.

    I can not process what happened last night yet. I made it into the pit after trying so long to get there to be with my brother. I'm so happy to have been there with him and so happy that somebody else got my seat bc of that. This show was another one that will try to top all of the others. I've decided to just stop the ranking in my head and just enjoy the moment. Who knows how many more we get??

    Thank you Pearl Jam for bringing fun and so much more into my life!

    Really? Wow. I thought the first encore was the best of the tour. Everyone has diff opinions.

    First thing I want to thank the Tenclub for some amazing seats. I was just next to the stage (on Stone's side) about 25 rows up. My wife and I used to go to a lot of shows together but having two young kids makes it difficult. When I won tix in the tenclub lottery I told her that we're getting a sitter and going to this one together, we had an absolute blast.

    Some highlights:
    Loved the energy of the opening of the show. Great start.
    Release in the middle of the set was unexpected and really cool
    Off He Goes & Footsteps are both top 10 PJ songs for me so it was cool hearing them in the encore
    Why Go. In my opinion one of the best live PJ songs. Love that tune.
    I Got Shit. Never gets old, could hear it every show.

    Great show, great energy from the band and crowd. Looking forward to round 2 tonight.
