    What an awesome setlist.

    So much for the rumours. Not only does Stone play, he actually gets to sing as well.

    Cant wait for the boys to get to oz next month.

    Magical! Super high energy. Perfect kick off to four day event. One of the rarest coolest sets. Eddie said they are going to try and play every song they know in this stand. Including playing til 2am sat!! Amazing. Ridiculous. Beautiful!

    Great show with a lot of energy. The crowd made it a super show. I think Pearl Jam is keeping the tambourine industry alive. 12-15 of them made it to the crowd during RITFW. Mankind! Holy shit. I heard them sound checking it, but didn't believe it would make it tonight's performance.

    Great show! The harder songs like Evolution, RVM, and Go were really inspired. Bring on night 2!!!

    wow. i wasn't sure if these shows could live up to the hype, but so far they've exceeded it! i really need to go to bed since i need to wake up in less than five hours to work and do it all again, but don't want to forget! my highlights were:

    -the awesome video montage of special spectrum moments they played before the boys came out to THE ROCKY MUSIC!!! i love rocky almost as much as i love PJ so this was like a dream come true. :P
    -all those yesterdays. that is the one song i wanted to hear more than anything in these four shows and it sounded incredible live!
    -the crowd energy was amazing and the band fed off that. they commented several times on what a great crowd it was. my favorite was a disgruntled concert goer who was clearly new at this complaining "i came to see pearl jam and i couldn't even hear pearl jam". :mrgreen:
    -the joking about the rumors going around the pit about stone leaving the band. ed joked that stone wanted out to take care of his family and stuff and since they could only play 2 songs without him they begged him to rejoin...and he agreed only if he could sing...intro to mankind!
    -that might have been the best version of black i heard!
    -ed's several references to the spectrum and how they want to do it proud and are honored to be the last ones to play there. said he heard bruce tore the roof off the place and they weren't just going to be there as the clean up crew.
    -ed saying how it's always exciting when they come to philly but he can't believe all the stuff going on this week with the world series and the spectrum coming down and halloween... and the transit strike...lol
    -RIVAL!!! GHOST!!!


    and finally.... ED SAYING THEY ARE GOING TO PLAY EVERY SONG THEY KNOW BY 2 AM SATURDAY. AAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!

    there's so much more but that's what comes to mind right now. i'm so happy there are three more days of this!!!!

    HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY! .... just got home from the show, and just one word will do, F'n INCREDIBLE!!!! and after seeing PJ almost 20 times in 20 years, this was almost the best yet. The show had great energy, and the spectrum is the best place in the area to see this band! And, I'm proud to say i brought my Mother along, this was her second PJ show, and she was very impressed. I wanted her to see the Spectrum one last time, her first date with my father was there in the 70's to see ELVIS! so i'm happy to say that after tonight, the great memory of The Spectrum will always be with us! I can't wait to see what they have in store for tomorrow nights show, see you there! thanks PJ, peace.

    The Rocky theme really set the tone. It felt like a prize fight! So amazing. Everyone be ready to rock your socks off. I forgot what it was like to leave a concert and your ears were ringing and have no voice left.
