    I recreated this setlist as a playlist in iTunes...and as I'm listening I actually cannot believe I saw this live.
  • It was an epic night, almost as legendary as MSG, minus the "venue tremors", I guess because Barclays was built more solidly than MSG and able to absorb all the intense music and crowd pounding? :D

    And kudos to the Barclays ushers! They were polite, professional and efficient. And they have "eagle eyes" like no other lol! :thumbup:

    Great shows in Brooklyn, Had very nice seats in the 2nd row behind the Pit.
    The crowd, setlist and general flow of the show was almost flawless. There never seemed to be a point in which the show dragged.
    Immortality and All those Yesterdays stood out most for me.
    So many gems were played tonight too - Wash, In Hiding, Leaving Here, Present Tense, Rats, Footsteps, Blood
    Brooklyn was a great host.

    Also managed to get this 8-)

  • Truly great show. Just hope next time they can do a better job with the Ten Club drawings. And I hope there is a next time!

    Won GA standing so I was pretty excited for the show. It really was an epic show. Agree with most of the posts I have read, there is not too much to add. I went to the German bar D.K.B before the show and they really set the tone by playing a early live show. Really good time. Is there a specific place in Philly that the fan club is hanging at? Heading down tomorrow for Philly 2 and would love to pregame with that same crew.
  • When we were waiting on the GA line my 15 year old son asked me what songs I really wanted to hear. I told him "Down" and "All Those Yesterdays" but wasn't getting my hopes up because they don't play them too often. He was thrilled for the old man which was a nice turn of events!

    Anyways I don't know how to describe tonight. It was my second Pearl Jam show with my first being last night. When I left Friday I said "That was the greatest setlist imaginable. They won't beat this. It's impossible. There's no songs left." Um...well I was wrong I guess because Saturday was the better show by far, a lot of that because of how amazing the crowd was! It was a whoooole different feeling in there. On Friday I was the only person moving in Section 229...tonight in 114 everybody was going crazy!

    I already ranted in my topic on the main board about how excited I was to hear all the hits I wanted to hear (Black, Even Flow, Alive, Betterman, Do the Evolution) but I never expected to hear some of the songs I wanted that aren't quite as big...All Those Yesterdays, In Hiding, and Rats all tonight I loved!!! I got to hear SO much of Vs. over the past two days! Heard Go, Daughter, Rearviewmirror, Elderly Woman, Indifference, Rats, Dissident, and Blood! That's my favorite PJ album and I can't believe how much of it I got to see!!!!

    Once was AMAZING tonight. I saw somebody say they should play it more because both casual and hardcore fans know it. This is so true. That was the moment the show turned around from being very good to being amazing. Once and everything after it was on another level. Just a total other level.

    Just amazing show. The only negatives I can think of is that A. The lightning bolts on Lightning Bolt is really really really cheesy, and B. They should have reprised Small Town and Corduroy with that crowd! Do the Evolution and Given to Fly were repeats but IMO they were so much better Night 2 with a crowd that into it. i see why they didnt especially with how much new stuff they repeated but I STILL WANTED IT.

    Also Pendulum should be the intro to every show. I think it's perfect and especially if you think of Song 2 as the real "opener". Crowd went crazy for Wash, and I never thought much of the song tonight and now I love it..same with Rockin in the Free World.
    I was in 114 too fucking amazing show...I was the only one up in my row

    Just wanted to throw it out there. . . . Brooklyn2 was only the 14th time they've played ATY live (thanks stat tracker!!!)

    As far as white whales go, I had hoped someday to get Rats, Blood, Whipping, maybe In Hiding. . . . I never thought I would get ATY. I just didn't think it would ever happen. When they started that song I looked at my wife in disbelief. . . . I wish I could bottle that feeling & keep it forever. Elation doesn't begin to describe what I was feeling.

    To get all 5 of these songs, as well as Wash, Last Exit, PT + is more than I would have ever realistically hoped for.

    As someone else in the thread already mentioned. . . . this is the set list I've been chasing for 15+ years.
    Hands down, the best of the 11 shows I've been to........... and the best band ever.
    Thanks PJ.

    PS - While I'm looking forward to Hartford, I'm trying to temper my expectations after Brooklyn2.

    PPS @ leafscubsjaysraptorsfan. . . . I hope you're right! A live DVD from the best show I've ever been to would be an incredible bonus!!! But I'll settle for the boot!
  • This show was epic! Probably my favorite PJ show ever! It made for a great birthday.

    Oh boy, a spare moment where I can finally put some thoughts down about this show!

    WHAT. A SHOW. PJ always treats NYC well, but damn. Up there with MSG2 2010 for sure. I took my cousin to this show, he's from Israel but living in the States for a couple years to try something different. Been a very casual PJ fan for a while but this was his first show. He was amazed, got a text after that said "I'm going to have to start going to more shows if every show is like that!" :D I was a proud cousin!!

    So many highlights of this one. I got to knock off some personal top 10's, including the #1 song I wanted to hear, In Hiding. I probably looked like a bumbling idiot during that song, I was SO SO SO happy!! It's just as amazing live as I thought it would be. Immortality is another favorite I've been wanting to hear, that was a treat. Wish Ed did the Immagine in Cornice intro thing, but still, amazing version. All Those Yesterdays has in the past year or so become an absolute favorite, and that coming out of left field was something else!

    Wash 2nd song was something I wasn't expecting, and man was that a killer version. Last Exit>Hail, Hail had me grinning from ear to ear. Once freaking ripped the place up--one of the best versions I've ever heard! Did not see Footsteps coming by a mile, especially hearing it in Pitt. So happy I got it again, though! Future Days was gorgeous, a song that's been growing on me since LB came out. Encore 2 blew my mind, Whipping>Blood then LEAVING HERE! Just amazing. I don't have enough good things to say about this show.

    Some pretty great Ed banter, too. His talk about being broken and cracks and all that hit me pretty hard. I love when he takes the time to share a bit of what's on his mind!

    I'm still not over the fact I was able to witness these Barclays shows. I friggin love this band.

    I wasn't at Brooklyn 1, but that's how I feel about the Brooklyn2.

    I'm still not over what I witnessed on Saturday night.

    Something to the effect of,

    The Chinese will fix a broken vase and paint the cracks with gold paint....They celebrate the cracks.....Everybody has cracks or scars, they should be celebrated....The ones without the scars, those are the people you have to watch out for.....

    Not even close to exact, but somewhere in that vicinity......lol
