just curious for the people who went to Fenway, did the band make any appearances anywhere on Saturday; Wishlist foundation? surprise shows? doubtful, but going to Wrigley so I am just wondering.

    I saw Boom over at MIT working on some Biomedical Engineering project. At least that's what he and the students he was with said the smoke was for.

    I had the chance to meet Mike McCready twice at the hotel we were staying at this weekend. The first time I was coming back from dinner on Saturday night, as was he, and we rode up in the elevator together. I tried not to put on too much of a fanboy show, but I thanked him for a great show the night before and told him I've been listening to the band since the beginning.

    Mike couldn't have been more gracious and friendly. He went out of his way to shake my hand and asked my name, and I told him how he shredded the solo on comfortably numb the night before. He was saying it has taken a long time to get it just where he wants it to be. I didn't ask for any photos or autographs, I just wanted to chat, and he was the nicest guy you could want to meet, for a guy who probably gets approached by people a dozen times a day. Saw him again on Sunday when we were checking out in the front of the hotel, shook his hand again and wished him luck for another great show. He graciously signed for several fans waiting around at the front of the hotel, before going off on foot like any average Joe on the street. That plus attending two great Pearl Jam shows, pretty much caps things for me.

    It's amazing that with all the attention and praise the fellas get, they're just regular guys in person and I think that's outstanding.

    this echoes pretty much every "meeting Mike" story I've ever read. it's amazing how nice he is to seemingly everyone that approaches him. and seems genuinely interested in chatting. not just an "uh huh, yeah, see ya!" type of guy.

    They were not seen at the House of Blues on Saturday night where there was a gathering of some of their biggest fans. It's not that I cared that they didn't stop by just to say a quick thank you, but the fact that they didn't care to do that themselves makes me wonder why I care so much about the band to spend an evening watching the same concert from the night before when they don't really care either.

    It really did seem strange to me though that here they had 1,000 or so of their fan club members in a room and no one from the band came to acknowledge that. That is what I was thinking about until I started drinking more to get through the same show from the night before (and ended up having a great time).

    As respectfully as I can, are you kidding? These guys pour 100% of their now 50-something souls into every concert they play, their fan club is better organized and delivers more opportunities to see this great band than any other fan club in existence, and then the fellas deliver a show for the ages on Friday night, and you're going to complain that they didn't show up to a FREE screening of the show (on their day off) because you're their "biggest fan"? How much is enough for you to be satisfied? What do they have to do to show you that they "really care" about the fan? This just seems like really, really sour grapes to me, when taken in consideration of the track record of the band trying to look out for the average fan as much as they possibly can. I mean really, the band "doesn't care" so much that you've got Ed reading fan club messages and making dedications to a guy's recently passed father on stage? I think some serious perspective is required here.


    EDITED, to add in also the contest hosted in which several fans won free tix to a PJ suite at Fenway for night two with the possibility to see sound check and have a meet & greet with members of the band which allegedly doesn't care about its fans.

    That's all, end of rant now.

    funny story, Friday night I was waiting in line to get in the park. Along comes a bunch of cops on motorcycles parting the crowd like the red sea, along comes 2 Mercedes vans. I recognized Ed's wife in the front. So I stepped close toward the vans knowing the band was in there and I yelled out something like "what the fuck, who do you think you are"?? with my arms in the air - everyone in the van were laughing. Pretty cool moment.
