    Was sitting in the stands, on Stone's side, about 5 rows above Ed's mom. I've only seen them three times before, but this show was off the fucking hook. I've never seen Ed with so much energy. The crowd passing the wine bottle to Ed's mom then the immense cheer when she took a swig was awesome. Mike brought the roof down again and again. So many songs you don't expect to hear. Yellow Ledbetter followed by Rockin' (clearly an improv extra song on Ed's part; Jeff had already removed his earplugs and walked off the stage after YL.) Simply epic. Thank you thank you thank you thank you.

    If you are hoping I'm going to use words like "epic" or I'm going to rank this concert, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

    quoting pooh is WAY better!

    Second row right in front of Jeff last night. Its just a different experience being that close. Never been that close. Loved seeing the expressions on Jeffs and Matts face when Eddie was telling stories. And they all laughed and had a blast when Ray Cameron was on stage for RITFW. His facial expression was priceless. He looked like he couldn't believe what was going on and they loved it.

    Mike threw 3 fistfulls or picks into the crowd. Never knew he did that. I was lucky enough to grab a couple.

    Stoked they played Light Years for Ryan and his family. Moments like that give you a deeper appreciation for the band. Very cool.

    See you in LA

    Run, don't walk, to hear Mikey's Black solo. Ed force feeding wine to Ray Cameron as he still plays, then turning to get Matt's reaction. Ed's crazed New Orleans mushroom story. Girl passing out dead center rail as Ed did "drugs" intro into Severed Hand, Ed sharing a hug with Jeff as he's playing Do the Evolution, Mikey bending over and almost smelling Jeff's bass up close during Severed Hand, wine bottle and chugging to Ed's Mom, great Light Years, Jeff playing ducking game with the swinging globe light, another wild college party crowd, Ed constantly looking up and playing around with his bro in the lighting rig trying to spotlight him, Mikey rolling over on his back, another behind his head solo from Mikey during Even Flow, Ed's sincerity with Philippines, Ed absolutely butchering LB lyrics especially Swallowed Whole and Sirens haha, and overall a fun fun show!

    I don't usually post about shows , even if I attended them , but when I do it's to thank the greatest band on ten and sometimes twelve legs for a mind blowing evening !! I now understand why San Diego shows are a must see for friends of mine . Who'd have thought a band which has been around for 23 years could be reaching their live prime, but Pearl Jam is in my mind . I've never seen the energy level so high . So glad for ten albums and then some because the set lists are amazing . Still hoping for my white whale songs of Strangest Tribe , Out of My Mind accoustic , and the Whale Song , but this run of shows may just be my favorite ( of 114 and counting) . Highlights were Nothingman , In My Tree , Tremor Christ , and most especially seeing my friends Glen and Daniela from Perth Oz , and meeting so many great fans from the GA section . Happy for all in attendance . PJ sure painted a masterpiece , a rock and roll Sistine Chapel .

    what a show, guys. i always second and third guess myself when i decide to travel to see this band (mainly for financial reasons), but shows like this one are what keep the desire alive.

    eddie singing 'alive' looking directly to his mother was a sight to behold.

    I feel very lucky to have seen a lot of PJ shows, including some epic ones. But this moment, Ed singing Alive looking right at his mom??? That is an intense, seriously... deep moment to witness. I can't even imagine.

    That, plus the presence of so many of the band's family members, and the guy from the Phillipines, that all makes me quite sure this show was something special that, as amazing as it sounds in these reviews, you had to be there to truly understand.

    Super happy for you SD lucky bastards!!! :D:D:D

    We were on Stone's side in the risers close to Eddies mom and when Mike went into the national anthem post YL Eddie went around the stage to Stone, Jeff and Matt to add RITFW. That was just one of many moments I kept saying they did not just do that. Another was when Eddie stopped In Hiding to add Tremor Christ in. I felt like a part of the Pearl Jam Family all night. The best band and best fans ever. Thanks All!!!

    Is anyone else trying to wrap their head around what we saw last night??!!

    I'm trying to replay it in my head. Unreal show. I've seen close to 16 shows and this was by far the most epic set of all of them. The band was on fire all night.

    Mike FUCKING McCready! That dude was next level last night. I've seen him stalk the stage like that, but he was shredding like I've never seen before.

    San Diego is so spoiled. We always get amazing shows. I feel so damn lucky right now!

    It doesn't get Eddie Vedder than this. Awesome show. Wish I had tickets to see them in other cities.
