Mainly with pace of play. Seemed nearly every song was getting an introduction of sorts. So by the time a song kicked off, any energy built up from prior song was dead. Killed momentum and lost the crowds in 200 and 300 sections.
Faithful
Light Years
In My Tree
RVM for Frans!

There are no kings inside the gates of eden
I was in a seated floor section, and was disappointed to see so many people recording the show most of the night. If I can't see the stage, I'd rather it be because people are up and engaged, not holding their arms in the air for a video.
The crowd did seem a little off, Faithful and Animal were a little different….but that was absolutely insane last night. Not For You at the end was SO good. In My Tree and Comatose were curve balls. I was just hoping it wasn’t going to be Who You Are 🤣 and that version of IMT was fire.
Best setlist post-covid.

this song is meant to be called i got shit,itshould be called i got shit tickets-hartford 06 -
Having now seen them two shows in a row (St. Paul 2 and Chicago 1), it's notable how much Eddie is connecting with the crowd and really being quite effusive about his gratitude and appreciation for the PJ community. And it's been really interesting to hear the stories and use of the projector to show pictures of people that have meant a lot to him. Really cool to hear the story in St. Paul about the boy, Charlie, who suffered from epidermolysis bullosa as well as the stories and pictures last night about his Great Aunt Sandy who passed away recently and the great story about going to his grandmother's old apartment and meeting the people outside and current owner (who Eddie invited to the show along with his son who is starting med school this week). In short, it's a really interesting direction that adds a lot more emotion and connection to the shows.
One note about the comparison between St. Paul 2 and Chicago 1. I may be biased as I'm from Minnesota, but I thought the crowd was a bit better in St. Paul. Chicago was great, but I've always wondered if the big cities kind of "expect" something special and are less likely to be overly enthusiastic while crowds in the smaller places that are less frequently played (i.e. Minnesota, Moline, etc.) are so appreciative that they go ape-sh*t the whole night. That's not to knock Chicago at all, but I think there was a stronger crowd vibe in St. Paul.
With all that said, so grateful this amazing band is still playing. Keep rockin' on, everyone. Enjoy the rest of the tour!
