It is now ten years and one day since Pearl Jam last played in the State of Arizona.
From the TFT review of that 2003 show...
An extremely hot show, low energy and Ed’s voice suffering. He stumbles over the ‘GTF’ lyrics but the crowd is there for him and Ed laughs and is thankful. After ‘Cropduster,’ Ed draws his hand across his throat and apologizes for his voice. “It’s like singing while sucking on a brow dryer right now …” He thanks the crew for working in the 105 degree heat and gives his sympathy as they have to drive to El Paso next. ‘Breakerfall’ is introduced as a love song. Ed plays the opening chords to “Gimme Some Truth” and pauses. “Fucking Las Vegas. That’s classic lead singer behavior right there; you just blame it on something else.” Ed asks the crowd to sing the ‘Another Brick In The Wall’ tag and he modifies the lyrics to sing about teachers and needing better pay. There’s a small “Eddie” chant at the start of the first encore and Ed responds, “If you’re going to do it, don’t do it half ass,” which creates a large “Eddie” chant. He quickly quells it, “All right that’s enough.” He thanks the crowd for coming out on a Friday night and the crowd corrects him (it is Saturday) and he seems surprised. “Jesus Christ, it’s been a long tour.” He pulls out a note from his cousin and introduces ‘I Won’t Back Down’ as a song he’d sing to kids. ‘Black’ has a great moment when Ed positions the mic toward the crowd and they sing the ending. Great moment during Black as crowd sang the ending; put the mic with stand out for the crowd to sing the closing. Returning quickly for the second encore, Ed says, “It’s too hot to stop!” and dedicates the next song to Johnny Ramone, leading to ‘I Believe In Miracles.’ Ed hands a person in a wheelchair a tambourine during ‘Baba.’

That was a nice little show. Surprise opener of Alive. Then this rockin' run of songs - Brain of J > 1/2 Full > Go > Corduroy. 1 of the 9 Arc performances. An extended/awesome Crazy Mary. The whole 'WMD Folder' bit was hilarious. 10 years later and I'm still bummed that they scratched Habit from the setlist! (Jeff: "Skip Habit. Fuck Habit").
It's a damn shame it's been a decade since they were down here."Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them." - Thoreau

"The whole 'WMD Folder' bit was hilarious" At least I can look back and laugh at that. Because I tried to find it.0 -
