Good to know PJ fans aren't the only ones that cry about setlists.  That dude complaining that it's the same old stuff for his 53rd show!  LOL.

And oh my goodness the show ended at 10:45, not 11:00!  Come on DMB, he paid for those 15 minutes.  What a ripoff!!

Simply thinking about the Orthodontics bill you are about to receive should help to quickly stifle your laugh. 

$10,000 out of pocket AFTER insurance. Girlie had some major dental issues. We're in the home stretch. Single digits on number of visits before braces come off. They have been on for over 3 years, with 2 1/2 years of prep ahead of that. But! It'll all be good soon!

Another one of these threads.

it must take a lot of effort for some of you to get up in the morning.

It does. My bed is wicked comfortable. And it’s hot outside. 

Well played sir.

Riverbend? Ick. Can we get something a bit more centrally located in Ohio? Riverbend tops out at 15,000. 

Columbus?

Cleveland?

Yeah. That’s the point. 

pearljammr78

Good point!!

pearljammr78

And DMB are broadcasting all their Friday shows live on the DMB channel on SiriusXM all summer long. Good to be a DMB fan right now.

If you stretch your scrotum out onto the chair you’re sitting on, you get a much better chance of smashing both nuts with one swing of the meat mallet.  Hitting one ball or the other tends to just frustrate, when what you’re looking to do is numb the pain in your life with a shocking searing blow to both balls.

Deez nuts.

DMB has always toured more than Pearl Jam. They are a road band. They made their careers playing as many shows as possible.  PJ is a band that plays live dates. They always have been.

yea but it's a bit of overkill too for DMB.   they just played their 40th and 41st show in Camden alone.  and there were still tickets day of the show for both shows.  they've saturated the Philly market playing year after year after year.  loses it's luster when they are there every year.  like food sometimes a lot of something is too much and gets tired.

i think the lack of new music is a bigger issue for PJ than the lack of touring.  most group go through lulls in touring.  as i said before Bruce went a decade without playing with the E Street Band. Most bands go through that.

That's painful to read.

We are in no danger of a Pearl Jam summer tour getting tired.

No doubt. 


My point was more to the question of DMB and PJ are similar in popularity and success, so why is one not like the other?

Six minutes of Thom Yorke experimenting with this will be called genius when it is released on the next Radiohead record.
