hes been getting better though, I think he is suffering from paranoia.
He needs to not worry. eds sets look pretty good. I just checked, not a bunch differant from night too night, but over the course of 3 to 4 there is enough variation.
Since i'm only going to MSG 1, I'm quite confident I am going to get a nice mixed setlist ;-)
The Canadian Tour was quite varied, and I think it will be similar here. But i've said this many times. If the 10C makes up 10% of the building (though I know that the MSG shows will represent more), 90% of the people in there are going to want to hear Alive, Betterman, Daughter....and not necessarily Wash and Around the Bend...know what I mean? I'm all for the band doing whatever it takes to get the crowd into it. I can piece the rarities later, if there are boots. As long as they throw me a bone for a song or two...what's the big deal? In Halifax, they started with Hard to Imagine...it was gold from that point on..didn't matter what song came next.
But Canada '05 was not. Conditions for this tour are pretty close to those of Canada '05. I think it will be a few pretty special shows this tour. Too bad I'm not going to be at any of them.
1/12/1879, 4/8/1156, 2/6/1977, who gives a shit, ...
1. this is his first time doing a solo tour
2. wants to give everyone the same show because this is completely new and may not happen again
3. he can do whatever the fuck he wants.
given that Ed isnt changing his setlist, its probably a precursor for how this june tour is going to be. man and i was hoping for atonement from the variety-less 06 east coast swing.
In my opinion, there is no point of comparison between a Pearl Jam tour and the Ed solo tour (which he keeps on calling his experiment).
They've never played an entire tour of the same setlist not even similar... I don't see that changing now...

I'm with justam, wait and see. I highly doubt it, this band is one of the very few that does not do the same setlists night after night.
Im still missing Big Wave from avocado (see it live I mean).... so bring on the Avocado songs!
I'm not worried about the setlists for June one bit.. I wish I could do more dates than the ones I'm doing, but I'm sure both FL shows will be awesome and completely different!

Does Ed even have enough material to fill a set-list? Think about what you are saying. Of course the setlists are going to be just about the same every night. Simple math.

In 06 I saw Albany, Hartford, Boston 1/2, Camden 1/2 and saw a huge variety of songs, including:
Rats
Garden
I'm Open
Red Mosquito
Satan's Bed
Leash
Wash
Parachutes
Sad
Sleight Of Hand
Glorified G
Forever Young
Green Disease
Smile
You Are
I don't think your assessment of '06 is accurate.

I disagree. I don't think that Ed's tour has much bearing on Pearl Jam. In fact, with there not being a new album out for this tour...I expect PJ to break out a lot more No Code and Yield than they did in 2006.
No worries. Every show is different. Even if they did "copy exact" shows that would be the least of our problems. If they played one album-any album start to finish as a complete set list for one show I would be perfectly happy. Just getting to experience the band live is a privlege. Some people are getting spoiled by this band. Worrying about set list diversity should be the furthest thing from our minds.

This is a ridiculous asumption in the history Pearl Jam have they ever played the same show twice, maybe at the beginning with one album but even then they started throwing in random covers and b-sides etc. Ed doesn't have atenth of the material to play as the the band does. Plus, the songs he is doing are the ones everyone should want to hear. It was just what I expected at both Vancouver shows, which were briliant by the way. I do think that this tour wasn't quite as geared to traveling fans, as a PJ tour though. But he has never done it before it's a prototype and "experiment" as he mentioned in Vancouver. Maybe that's why there the strict rules on audio and video recording?

Hopefully some Binaural too. In 4 shows I've only seen two Binaural songs. Kind of crazy.
yeah the song selection on the 2006 tour was quite odd. Ten, Vs, Vitalogy and the newest album dominated the sets. I saw three shows in 2006 (both Camdens and E. Rutherford 1). Here are the No Code, Yield, Binaural, and Riot Act songs I heard:
No Code: Lukin, Present Tense
Yield : Given To Fly, Wishlist, Do the Evolution (only the singles)
Binaural: Grievance
Riot Act: Green Disease, You Are, Save You, I Am Mine
10 songs off of 4 of their studio albums over the course of 3 consecutive concerts? that seemed weird. Yet I saw Leash three straight times. Odd to see only these three Yield songs. DTE is played almost every night but it seemed at the time likely to hear Given to Fly and Faithful one night and maybe Wishlist and MFC the next to go along with two Do the Evolutions...or something like that.
holy fuck some fans are just so clueless not one show yet in 08 and it's in trouble stop smoking the crack dude ,from my experience every tour that they do when not supporting a new record has been outstanding .....i never ?? the set list's ever .....

no more shows
they played Education at Lollapalooza.
Nuclear fission
there is no way the set lists are going to not change, even the east coast 06 tour had variety in set lists
even though it wasn't as much as we like at times
But Canada '05 was not. Conditions for this tour are pretty close to those of Canada '05. I think it will be a few pretty special shows this tour. Too bad I'm not going to be at any of them.

exactly. given this is ed's FIRST SOLO tour...i do NOT in any way think it reflects on what a full PEARL JAM show will be like.
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
no problem

Even E.Rutherford got graced with two full nights of non stop goodness. Tons of goodies and rarities. I was shocked.
Hopefully some Binaural too. In 4 shows I've only seen two Binaural songs. Kind of crazy.
please dont tell me garden and rats were the rares of the east coast tour in 06 they werent that rare. and leash was played at every show basically.
I don't know. I pretty much loved all 3 shows I saw in '06.

We all have our own opinions I suppose. I think you are dead wrong.
