    Bravo for fitting the show in and pushing it as late as they could.  Looks like a fun show - love that they opened with GTF.
    Hope those in attendance had a great time and survived the delays with smiles.

    GA was a cluster.  Had 3rd row center originally but was able to get back to relatively same spot.   That rush in was not fun. 

    But the first 6 songs in the rain were literally glorious.  What a release of energy.  Might be my favorite 5 song run I've seen in 55 shows.  Rest of show was fantastic except when Ed made Stone mad and then Stone missed the band photo.  Poor Stone.

    Unbelievable! These guys knew what they had to do to save the show after the rain delay and THEY DID IT!

    Phenominal rocker of a setlist, nonstop!

    All factors considered they did an awesome job last night. She was an evil little goat goat goat!

     I will also be the 1st to say watching Ed sing. "BAHHHHH" while slapping his hands behind his ears on stage was worth the rain delay

    Best version of Patriot since the first one wayyyyyy back.

    They started hard, I'll be honest it took a few songs to snap me out of will it be canceled, oh shit another lightning bolt shock.  Their instinct was spot on.

    Biggest surprise was no release either night.

    Soundcheck was very great foreshadow of what they would play.

    Immortality was amazing, Evenflow was tight, U should be played way more often!

    The entire band was PISSED at Ed all night long. They were also sloppy all night.

    That being said, those first 6 songs, the way they came out was the PJ I fucking miss!!!! Started 7 rows back in front of jeff, ended up 3 rows back in front of mike after the delay. The group of PJ fans around me was awesome! By the way, the way they timed everything with the delay was perfect.

    I did not get a vibe that they were pissed at Eddie or didnI think they were sloppy. I was about 7 rows deep and I thought they killed it and were having a good time.

    Great show.  They packed a ton into the limited time, including forgoing the 2nd encore break.  Raucous set list and pace

    If you’re looking for complaints keep scrolling, because this is my first show.

    That rain delay was worth it the moment they came out. Energy was twice as high and Given To Fly/Why Go in the downpour was so fucking cool. 

    The highlights for me were Black, LEASH, Evil Little Goat (!), Come Back for Stan Mikita, Smile, Rearviewmirror, and Baba O’Riley as a closer with Eddie smashing a guitar Who style! (The whole show was a huge highlight though!)

    Greatest band in the world. Period.

    Just the glares Ed was giving Mike. Stone was giving Ed the death stare all night. They fucked up DTE and even flow for sure, other songs their timing was off sometimes. Not bitching at all, just stating what I saw and heard. Either way, it was the best show at Wrigley to date

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for Given to Fly, a nice and emotional moment for me and my mom in memory of my brother that took his own life two years ago today.
