    And no one sings me lullabyes
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky....

    Great show.

    Special thanks to the complete assholes next to me that didnt stop talking (and not about the show), during the whole thing. Why are people such assholes????? Seriously???? :evil:


    Otherwise, Ed didnt disappoint. Highlights for me- Immortality, Long Nights, Let my love open the door. :mrgreen:

    I honestly felt like I was in the presence of a true genius tonight. Pear Jam shows are amazing experiences like nothing else, but this was a masterpiece! Like watching Piccasso paint or Roth write. I wish it had never ended.

    Just saw Ed and Cheli taking BP at Comerica Park along with others. Ed was in RF and gave us a wave. Too cool. Great show. Can't wait for Toronto in Sept.

    That was absolutely amazingggg! Other than the few assholes behind me that started cursing every time someone stood up, and Eddie's start/stops, it was flawless and beyond incredible. Being a huge wings fan, the poster is my absolute favorite PJ/EV related poster instantly, I am so happy to have it! I will never forget this day as long as I live.

    Simply a magical week from begin to end, I can't recall so many great set lists in one week for an Eddie solo. So thankful I had the opportunity to be part of it.

    It tickles me that my ASL interpreter was mentioned in the setlist! That was Carie. She did an awesome job tonight!

    Funny joking around between her and Ed regarding the "fuck" word. Asked her what it looked like and she flipped with both middle fingers to him and he just chuckled.

    I was just telling my friends what a typical hearie Ed was - because that's what hearing people do - what does this bad word look like in sign language??! LOL. ;)

    Carie was asked by Ed to help out passing out cups before Crazy Mary started. The guard offered and literally tried to push me up on the stage too because I couldn't see what she was saying and I said no no, I'm fine here... I'll just wait till she comes back!! She came back just in time for him to stop insisting! :)

    It was a great show! I had a great time with my hubby Bobby - if you saw a guy with a bow tie and a hat... that was him. lol. It was great seeing old friends too! Nick and others did a great job at Wishlist party too. Didn't win anything with my raffle tickets, oh well! Was hoping to get ITW vinyl. :)

    Thanks for everything - 10c for the ADA seats, the access people at Fox (thanks Kathryn!) and both Carie and Bobby! Great show! I felt it went by way too fast.... wish it had gone on longer!
    JA: Why do I get the Ticketmaster question?

    Great show . Ten Club seating was balcony.. Might be great seats but you feel like your not part of the show !

    Opening act was great . But it defiantly was not the Ryman ! ;)

    The talk of the show was the poster !!

    :D Tonight's show ranks right up there!!! First time seeing Eddie solo and he didn't disappoint......highlights definitely were LMLOTD, Wishlist and the duet with Glen on "Falling Slowly"......why the hell does PJ wait 5 years to play Detroit when you get a fan reaction like tonight?! :clap::clap::clap: And special shout out to Dirty Tom and his helpers for a job well done with the pre-party...it was great being surrounded by fellow PJ geeks waiting in anticipation for our raffle ticket to be called :D

    Ed,

    Thanks so much for taking the time to read the letter I gave you before the show about my grandfather's passing and asking you to play MotH for him. It was incredible. I had family in attendance, making it all the more special.

    All the best,

    Tim

    Wow! What an Unforgettable Day!
    From partying with Pearl Jam fans at the Tiger's game, the pre-party at Cheli's (didn't win anything),
    the incredible concert, to the after party at Cheli's – I will never forget this day & night.

    Highlights: Needle & The Damage Done, Elderly Woman (sing-along), Immortality, Society (w/Hansard), Crazy Mary, Porch (everyone dancing), Hard Sun.

    also the Eddie Vedder Detroit Red Wings Chris Chelios poster!!!

    and I am a witness for the girl who received a hug & autograph from Eddie after she ran down the street after him. You made my day!

    (p.s.) to everyone who sang 'Alive' at the after-party it was as powerful as a real PJ concert!

    Great performance and setlist tonight. The crowd was great for the most part but there just so many drunk assholes there tonight that were extremely distracting. It seemed like every song there were 50-100 people staggering up the aisles on the floor and couldn't find their seats when they came back.

    This was another amazing show by Mr. V....when Ed told the techs to shut down all the audio ....that was by far the most ethereal moment ....just his baritone in that beautiful hall.....just would have been better if people wouldv'e shut the hell up for a minute to LISTEN...thank you for a beautiful night! (Hope you and C hit some home runs over at the park tonight!!)...btw CLEVELAND still ROCKS..(in baseball and MUSIC ) lol!! ly :D
