Ok so I am a huge fan but have yet to see them in concert. I'm going to see them in May.... just wondering if this show is going to be as good as I am thinking its going to be?
Who cares if the world is going down the toilet? Eddie Vedder got his mojo back!

    Its gonna be better!!!! Seen them 3x and they blew me away every time!!! After Nick O. was subsequentially kicked out of the band; I actually had doubts in their ability to stay as good as they did..L2P turned out to be one of my favorite albums in the last 10 years....As for Josh well he is pure genius...And watching Castillo work is just a thing of beauty....

  • I saw them in Pittsburgh back in September 07. I honestly could'nt hear right for a few hours afterwards, always a sign of a good time. They had a kick ass setlist as well.

    I've seen 'em 5 times and they are always good.

    On the weekend? Hm, I'll have to look into this!

    Seen them twice, once in a super small hole in the wall venue and once in a major league hockey arena...both times were freakin insane...you will have an amazing time!! As much energy as they have on the CDs...multiply times 16 for a live show! :) Have fun!

    I was there as well. 5th row center... Awesome show! Can't wait to see them again!
    PJ FANS ROCK!!!

    Finally got that "One for the Thumb"!!! Got the "Six Pack". Now we're on a "Stairway to Seven"

    I've seen them twice, and they were awesome both times. I could take 'em or leave 'em on record, but the live show is brilliant and I'd defo go see them again.

    Seen them 13 times and I've got to say that they're still pretty good but the Songs for the Deaf era with Nick Oliveri & Mark Lanegan were by far the best times they had!

    Yes! The secret club tour with Grohl was the best IMO. It was so loud and powerful.

    seen em 5 times...in the oliveri/lanegan days....johaines/schneider days and the latest line-up...

    and every single show was face-melting. even outdoors. actually especially outdoors. cant think of a band better suited for outdoors shows.

    either way,
    be sure that u go near the front. you wont regret it.

    i've seen various incarnations of the 'Queens Of The Stone Age'... and they have yet to disappoint me. One of the best live acts out there today.

    Yep, was lucky enough to see them with D. Grohl @ Rock Werchter in 2002! That was more than amazing when they did a handful of European Festivals with the Foo Master!
