    I missed Tedy, shame _ he's my all-time favorite Patriot and I will always wear my Bruschi shirt with great pride.

    That's so cool!!!

    Wow that was awesome. Nice crowd in the way back center balcony. A few of us Ten clobbers were up there. Suppose one of these years i'll get some up close action. My little baby girl got to hear Eddie sing in a great sounding venue, in utero! How cool is that. (Wife is a trooper.) If I don't make it to Wisconsin at least I caught this amazing performance. Ed totally called out the venue right away for being way too pricey! Great job singing crowd, wish the douches would shutup between songs.

    Thank you, Eddie, for an AMAZING night! Being able to hear and see Eddie Vedder live was an experience that cannot be matched. FANTASTIC! This was my first live show and was more than worth my solo drive from the mid-coast area of Maine to partake in what is certainly a gift from God. And, even though I'm a Yankee fan, Boston now holds a memory for me that will remain in my heart as (quite possibly) the best night of my life :D
    Makes much more sense to live in the present tense....

    yeah, great night.

    the all uke opening songs i found to be a little slow in terms of building the energy, but still lovely of course. Loved Open All Night and wished we could all rock out to it more. Immortality was precious to me, as was Speed of Sound, which i'd sorta forgotten about, esp in the acoustic sense. Lovely. Glen Hansard was great too. Just love it, love how the magic is there every friggin time and the chills and goosebumps show up just when you're not quite sure they will again.

    They were giving away the black Pearl Jam tote bag that is for sale in the goods section for free with merchandise purchases.

    I didn't have great seats but it didn't matter at all. It was a wonderful night! It's hard to single out favorite songs in his set because the whole show was great but I really loved Sleeping by Myself, Crazy Mary, Immortality, and Unthought Known. I can't wait for tomorrow's show.

    What an AMAZING show last night. Thanks to the 10C for ridiculous seats (Orchestra left, row K).

    Does anyone know what happened in the center orchestra seats, somewhere around row L or M? At one point I heard someone say something about kicking someone's ass, and then I saw ushers get involved. It was towards the end of the main set. Any idea what was going on??

    That all went down two rows in front of me. There was a group of 4-8 guys who were kinda annoying throughout the show; yelling a lot of dumb stuff between songs and occasionally during the songs, including Arc. Apparently this dude got fed up and screamed what you heard right in the face of one of the guys wearing a Lucic shirt right before Society. So of course we had to listen to them yell at each other from their seats for most of the song. Then somebody from that dude's area (possibly him or someone he was with) got an usher to talk the guys. It really could've been handled a lot better.

    So thanks annoying guys for being annoying and screamy dude for solving nothing and ruining most of Society for those around this minor fiasco.

    Hello all! I admit, I had a hand in this. Those 4 guys that were bothering people, I was the guy that confronted them. I'll admit that I 1) should have let it go or let the ushers handle it and 2) not been as aggressive towards them as I was, I was just so pissed that they were ruining the show for me, my girlfriend, and those around me.

    Again, I'm sorry. I should have been more of an adult about the whole situation, and instead I acted out and said things that I'll guarantee got my message across in a very rough manor. All I can say in my defense is that after that they did shut up and I was thanked by 5-6 couples for doing something when I was walking out because these guys were THAT bad.

    Again... I'm so sorry if my actions made this concert a bad experience for anyone. Believe me, this wasn't my fav either - and it was a great show!

    No sweat, man...those guys were definitely annoying. Probably would've been best to ask them nicely once, then get an usher if the problem persisted, but it's certainly trickier when you're in the moment. Safe to assume you didn't have any problems after the show?

    10 Club seats were not too good. 18th row. Had some guy with an enormous head sitting in front of me. :|
    But the show itself was wonderful. My favorites were Immortality, Unthought Known, Can't Keep, Crazy Mary, Arc & Sleepless Nights.

    Ed got lots of standing ovations! He told us that Pearl Jam would play Boston next year. *fingers crossed that it actually happens*

    Going to Hartford tonight...my last show of this tour...have a 3rd row pit seat! :D

    This was my third time seeing him in Boston and it was a great show. The highlight for me was Immortality and Eddie's Youklis batting stance. Ten Club seats were good also right orch row T. My ten club number is not that great so I was happy.

    That really stinks about the Boston seats - I'm hoping the 10C tickets for the Beacon shows are better then that.

    I don't really see anything about 18th row seats that is worth complaining about. Big heads aside...

    No, no issues after the show. My girlfriend was worried, but I wasn't. And yeah, next time I'll just go straight to an usher - I learned my lesson! ;)

    Add on to the Youk thing: Ed said he named his uke Kevin and then he used the Uke as a bat and proceeded to mimic Youk's batting stance. Classic.


    and probably 17% of us actually recognized that fact

    since the crowd is probably non sox fans or pink hats ;)

    Oh, and Unthought Known brought a tear to my eye it was so good!

    Out of curiosity, was it the full version of Unthought Known or was it the shortened version that was on the Water on the Road DVD?


    FULL VERSION...AND IT WAS FANTASTIC. Crowd gave a standing ovation after it.


    if you watch the stage lights... the crowd is supposed to stand for the song

    only unlost dogs seemed to figure out that fact :)


    somehow i picked up on it in Providence... as the song builds the lights slowly come up on the crowd

    and you're supposed to get up

    i was sort of annoyed boston stayed seated... but they also didn't prompt us with the lights as much
