    nothing more that i can add to what most people have put about this show....

    it was a great show with awesome energy from the crowd and the band you can tell was appreciative of the vibe

    Nothingman (gets me everytime i hear it) and Down was a nice suprise

    me and my wife (this was our honeymoon!!!) had a great time and met some cool people at Hattricks and also sitting next to us in section 118 on Mikes side

    glad we got to make the trip to Tampa!!

    I don't understand how they played what I wanted to here. They have always played what I wanted to here. Ed is so in tune with his fans. I can't f'in believe they played Nothingman. Amazing. Anyways...

    Bad Ass concert. Sound was great. Energy was better than I expected from a show in Tampa. Setlist was spot on. I kinda wanted to here Slight of Hand (maybe in place of Insig) BUT, they pulled that out of their arses when they were here in 2000. They never cease to amaze me.

    I can't wait to here Black on the boot. That was something special!

    So, this was supposed to be the middle show on my way to a concert hattrick & I'm super excited for this band. My 7th time Pearl Jamming & I'm amping walking in to the side of this building to where floor VIP is. It's chill but still no merch. WTF? mate I heard it's the shit this year? -n- then the euro dood tells me all these funny ways to 'get up' & 'go there' & 'how to find' the merch booths.
    so... I was slightly dissapointed when we got to our damn day of ticketbastard seats and we're all the way in the back in the middle, freaking like 3rd to last row; le barf. So Kings of Leon rocked our socks off! I was clapping real loud like I do inbetween songs except that on fast on on everybeat. I'm new to appreciated their style & I really like them live from what I saw for the first time. My friend, John I took, had seen Kings of Leon 3 times now & he said that they are better every time too.
    That was cool a good start & I'm knowing it's going to get much better... but we had to move from our seats... there was just no way we were gonna be jamming all the way in the back rows of this joint. So we both then head up & crash the 1st merch booth we see on our way to spending like almost too much & I say; "Hey lets stay close up here & go over there." The stage definatly looked best from up above & the sound techies did it right. We we're so stacked on the right hand side jam-standing The Whole Entire Long Time! How freaking funny was Ed. He had me in kahoots from the very begining & kept the entire crowd alive the entire show. Thanks. We Bradenton folk were so owning y'all when we got the 1st encore set dedicated to us, not only that... There I was playing out the super slow motion golf swings to the band when the happen glanced & jamming all alongw/ my bro AND w/uber prosurf photog Dick Meseroll from ESM & his lady friends sitting directly behind our new found row. Not to mention I took a guy who'd never seen Pearl Jam, afterward he said that was one of his all time favorite rock & roll shows. Thanks for the birthday suprise Pearl Jam! See y'all next time when it's my friend's turn to take ME

    i am remembering Nothingman...

    only time played this tour

    so far, eh? :D

    well done, ed egg head.. :D
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I dunno what everyone's talking about. I'm listening to show right now under a set of hi-def headphones, and the sound is spot on terrific. All the shows are, honestly. And no, it's not just because I crank them... I turn it down to to test the acoustics too.

    The whole crew really did a number this time around, and the company doing the boots (while slow as molasses) are doing an admirable job transplanting the shows.

    Hopefully get my boot today from the show. Did anyone else think that "Black" was the best live version they ever heard? Just seemed exceptional to me for some indescribable reason.

    Do you mind sharing when you downloaded it?

    I'm wondering if they tweaked it.

    Absolutely.
    I know everybody says that about their respective shows. I had the chills through that entire song.

    As far as memories go, Black coupled with Nothingman right before it, was a sight to behold. I know I won't forget it.

    Black is probably the most important PJ song, and really one of the most important songs ever to me. To hear it that night was magical, and the crowd singing at the end gives me chills.

    One of the best concert moments of my life, and it was on my birthday. :)

    I'm listening to the bootleg now and Black IS the shit on there. What I remember the best about it was the the awesome crowd participation at the end without Ed initiating it. It's a little more subtle on the boot, but you can definitely hear the crowd echoing Ed the whole song. Boom's keys top the whole shit off. A lot of people say this boot sounds shitty, ah fuck 'em. I'll always have great memories from this show!

    Nothingman and Black back to back like that was a treat for me and definitely a highlight of the show

    it started off the honeymoon with the wife perfectly :)

    Just realized that Ed fucked up "Down" in the beginning, still a good version though (to the the untrained ear) ;)
