With the tour about to start, how do ya'll think these shows will start?  Fast or Slow/seated like the 2023 shows?  Do they mix up the starting pace from show to show?  Make your predictions!

    Hoping it's completely different and unpredictable each night.  That's the Pearl Jam concert experience that we love.

    think with the visuals there may be some run of songs that get played each night, so im saying no more seated start

    Without the slow start there’s certain songs that are unlikely to fit in elsewhere in a shorter set. I used to love the section after the first encore in the longer sets.

    I answered with what I want. I presume the seated start will be the norm, but I’d like them to mix it up.

    Presume slow seated trend will continue.  Preference would be to mix it up though.

    Fast Start
    I think they will do slow start, but hoping for fast. I like it when shows just slam you right in the face from the get-go. 
    1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th
    1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California
    Nothing since then. I suck.
    2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights
    2022- Oakland Night 2
    2024 Sacramento, CA

    Hoping that they will mix it up through out the tour. I can definitely see the cities with more than one show starting out differently as well.

    It doesn't really matter to me, but I'm just hoping that they start on Saturday with "Dark Matter," although I think there's a good chance they open with "Scared of Fear." They might even open with "Scared of Fear" followed by "React, Respond," causing people to think they're playing Dark Matter straight through, but it won't be that. The third song would be something like "Corduroy."
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I think slow start because Eds voice sounded amazing last year and they want to keep it healthy by letting him.ease into it

    I feel like the first song of the tour will have an epic kinda feel to it, and that means a slower one I think... but a banger would shock the fuck out of me, which would also be fantastic.

    Put a pool table on the stage, Boom comes out and makes a break then launch into Scared of Fear.

    They could use the video screens for that. Though, it would be amazing to do it live, especially just for the extremely low chance that something goes wrong and it takes a couple of tries to get the break.
