    been to 41 shows, never seen them play who you are


    Seen it twice in 5 shows. If you've seen them 41 times (jelous, and you must be rich! - double jelous), you're not missing much, you probably can just close your eyes and imagine it live!
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    We listened to Mansfield 2003 on the way back from the Cornell sow last night, and I don't know how this could have escaped me for so long, but MAN! Lucky folks who were there :o :thumbup:

    Yes, I'd be more than down for an acoustic tour. Or an acoustic preset in Seattle. Or just another Benny Hall kind of show released on vinyl :shifty:

    Best show of all time, all those silly NY'ers and Philly fans have nothing on Mansfield 3. :twisted:

    Can't believe this hasn't been an answer yet.

    Today? No.

    10-15 years from now? It will be the norm.

    Would another bennaroya hall show (a one off) be a very special evening? Absolutely.

    Why? The Who and Stones still play electric shows.

  • I really think this wouldn't work at all as an arena tour, but would be absolutely incredible as a small theatre tour.

    No. A one off acoustic show or two like Benaroya Hall is cool but I want my rock! Plugged in and loud!

    I'll be there! 8-)
    I've been fortunate enough to see Pearl Jam live.

    I am hanging in the balance of a perfect finished plan

    Would you guys travel to, say, Chicago (I'm totally biased, I know) to see them do a week long residency at the Vic or someplace similar if they were only going to play acoustic shows? That would be my dream. To be fair a week long full electric residency would probably be a better dream.
