    And Jeff was crushing tonight too. Ed's voice sounded great when he actually had songs that require singing instead of yelling

    Binaural's probably not one of my most listened to albums, I won't pretend it is now. But there are obviously some songs I like a ton from it and I am super grateful to have been a part of this special night.
    The thing I found to be ironic is that, as mentioned above, I could look around and see people disregarding songs like Of the Girl, Sleight of Hand, and NAIS. And I'm sure there are people who have been to dozens of concerts and haven't caught a whiff of those beauties.
    So I can't help but wonder if a majority of the casual crowd was disappointed or at least felt lost but still enjoyed.
    Me on the other hand.... oof. Won't be forgetting that one. Can't wait for Thursday now that's for sure

    Amazing show. Hearing Binaural was was epic.... even if you don't love the album as much as you do other albums (I myself all into this category), it's pretty cool to see something like that. Will we ever have a setlist as obscure and rare as this for the rest of our lives? I doubt it. So it's pretty incredible to be a part of that especially if you're going again Thurs.

    We knew the encores would be hit filled, but they delivered. Porch seems to get better every time they play it live. And like others said, Mike and Jeff were F*#$ing on FIRE. Killer show.

    Wow, what a treat to Canadians, I am jealous.
    Binaural played in full is the dream bootleg for me.

    Did I see a crowd surfer (who was quickly pulled over the rail, it seemed) during (I think) Alive?

    Wonder if I should just edit my first post instead of adding random rememberances as they occur, lol?

    I am truly jealous of Toronto tonight. Holy fucking shit. Binaural. Wish I was there.
  • This was my 25th show and this is right up there at the top of my list of favorite shows. I had a feeling Binaural could happen in Toronto after seeing more songs surface in recent setlists. This was a dream come true and I can't wait for Thursday.
