Great report, thanks for sharing! Mike is one of the best guitar players IMO. He always manages to make the same songs sound new through his solos at the concerts.

After all these years, Pearl Jam’s signature song remains a staple of
their live show that fans can count on — taken from painful origins,
reclaimed after tragedy, and transformed into pure joie de vivre.
But when Mike McCready takes over in the homestretch, it’s a moment of
both total familiarity and the excitement of a participatory,
one-of-a-kind musical revelation. In a lot of ways, that duality is one
of the reasons Pearl Jam still means so much to so many.
