    I've rarely posted here, I saw my first show in 2000. Last night was my 9th Pearl Jam Show and I still have not heard Yellow Ledbetter.

    The kick in the gut to that stat?

    In 2003 I had tickets to 2 shows. Shortly after I got the tickets, I made a huge decision and moved to Boston. I couldn't swing the money to make it to the 2 shows. Both of those shows they played Yellow Ledbetter.

    The shows, if you were wondering:

    Buffalo 5/02/2013
    And what some felt for a long time as the Setlist to beat, State College 5/03/2013

    I have tickets for October 15th in Worcester, MA. It will be my 10th Pearl Jam show, and maybe for 10 I'll get YL.

    I hoped my first show would have the template Alive/YL finale. I wasn't disappointed and the next 3 shows that week ended exactly the same. I love YL to death but I long for Indifference someday. Had 5 x YL and 1 x RITFW so far. I met a fan at Manchester 2 last year who had been to a lot of shows, can't remember exactly but I think it was in the mid teens and he was delighted because the night before he'd finally seen Black, Porch and SOLAT all in one encore too. It's funny how some songs continue to pass people by yet still be quite frequently played...
    Like a book among the many on a shelf...

    Wow...I was driving home from my daughters soccer tournament listening to Camden 9/2000 and cranking Mike's "Crazy Train/Number of the Beast" solo during YL, thinking "I wonder if anyone has been to multiple shows and NOT seen YL" :D
    Awesome

    It took 9 shows for me to hear "Jeremy" live.

    This was my most missed as well, finally got it at show #11 and Mr Ament made it well worth the wait.

    Last night was my 4th show and first time hearing Corduroy live, but I've heard Fatal live twice.
    Using up my Ovaltine... like Ovaltine.

    I have only been to 4, so it is a small sample I agree. But all 4 shows have been 2010 or later, which is when they seemed to be on this YL rampage to close shows. Ive gotten RITFW twice and Indifference twice. Definitely not complaining about Indifference.
