    Also just because I'm suggesting to change the setlist doesn't mean I don't like Yellow Ledbetter, Alive, Black, or Porch, etc, etc.

    They'll get right on that. I'm OK with whatever they play.

    So you're saying that they're going to start playing Get Right as an encore? Nice!!!

    They played Breath in Massachusetts for the first time since 2003.
    They played I've Got A Feeling for the first time since 2004.
    They played Masters Of War for the first time since 2008.
    They gave us Off He Goes and NAIS before the sun went down on Sunday.
    They closed a set on Friday with Corduroy for the first time in years.
    Strangest Tribe.
    Angel.
    Draw The Line.

    These shows were awesome.

    agree with the overall point wholeheartedly that the 2nd encore is way too predictable

    Crazy how fast people get spoiled on here. Sure, more variation would be nice, but the fact that they even HAVE variation in the first place is what makes this band a step ahead of everyone else.

    It creates a chicken/egg problem though.  Because Pearl Jam changes their setlist's every night, people travel around and go to multiple shows.   Because PJ fans go to a lot of shows, they get bored of the songs that get played at every show :)

    Vary the setlist, haha, try seeing Metallica back to back only about three songs will be different.   I think PJ does a great job with the setlists.

    Don't worry, they'll have six covers for us!

    I am just not too sure why they vary the main setlist so much, like make a huge point of it, but then won't do it with the encore ... It's just kind of strange. It's like two clashing philosophies.
