Purple Rain historically for us:

MAY 2022 in Oakland (Night 2) opener Josh Klinghoffer (Pluralone) performed Purple Rain as closing song.

MAY 2022 in Fresno now its Pearl Jam’s closing song. First time.

Played 4 more times in 2022

Returns as closer in Minnesota 2023. Well received. 

I think the band likes playing it and most fans enjoy hearing it. I’ll like the song and I also like it as a new closing cover song (if I can't get PJ). Great change by the band. Keep it!
