Who hasn't seen Eddie Vedder solo live?

You know who hasn't ME. I really regret not going and seeing him on this tour. Family and Work keep me away. I hope that he has some more solo shows in him for the future. No matter what I am going. I have never taken the kids to a PJ show but I really want to take them to an EV show. Its like that show/movie you make the kids watch because it is a must see. Seeing EV live with the whole family would be so special almost spiritual. Its like taking your kid to Wrigley Field for the first time. I missed PJ20 because of work and need to make up for that somehow. I wonder if other generations of parents have felt this way about a Band, family, and the true significance of it all. Maybe for the Beatles.
Thoughts? Anyone else not able see EV?

i had 6th row tix to the minneapolis show last year, but a couple friends eded up getting married that day (over the 4th of july weekend, mind you. :roll: who does that?). at first i figured the wedding would be in the afternoon and i could just sneak out of the reception early, but then they set the wedding time for 6 at night.
But really, getting to see him twice and Cornell twice doing their stripped down shows is beyond incredible.
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
No idea how many people i've heard say that. And admit later they were totally wrong.

$90 isn't what it used to be though. But I agree, I don't really like hearing the Uke stuff at his shows. Give him a guitar though and...awesome.
I really enjoy listening to Ed play solo acoustic guitar, especially his fingerpicking style. I hate Just Breathe at PJ shows, but I do enjoy playing the guitar part.
Hell, my wife would probably love the show.
Maybe sometime in the future, I will see a solo show.

i would agree that it's not anything like a PJ show, but the man is a gifted singer/songwriter and a totally gracious individual. maybe worth seeing live just once, even at $90, if you've invested 22 years in the band as i have. my 2 cents.

Ben Harper is probably a distant third and he was pretty amazing too.
For those who have no desire to see Ed solo, to each their own but I would urge you to try it once if you have the means to, then judge. He doesn't *only* play the uke, and the stories are priceless. I've been to 7 EV solo shows across 3 tours, each was special in their own way. The songs might repeat, but never the stories.

What I like from this tour to last summer's is this year's seems more upbeat and loud with a noticeable reduction in the uke.
I guess I am a Pearl Jam fan and not so much an EV fan........if that makes sense.... :shock:
