    Dallas and Oklahoma City

    Phenomenal set lists. Really like how they kind of complimented each other. (IE: Corduroy in Dallas/ Even flow in OKC. There were 9 repeated songs though. Loved both crowds.

    11, worcester 1 was my favorite all things considered. It was my first show of the tour, release long road to open, that was unreal. Man of the hour and fatal were great. There's nothing quite like that first show when you havent seen them in a while. San diego was great, but i was so tired from traveling that i couldnt enjoy it.

    Saw all four California shows plus Wrigley. San Diego was the best of the tour shows, but I don't know if the three days I spent in Wrigleyville will ever be topped. Such an amazing experience!

    5 shows (BK2-Philly 1-Philly 2-Hartford-Baltimore). For me the best was a toss up between Brooklyn 2 and Hartford. They were considerably better than the others.

    I saw 5 shows with my wife. 3 on the East Coast Baltimore Charlotte and Charlottesville. Charlottesville was by far the best show. Baltimore was very cool too because the venue was so small about 13K and it was the first time they played Baltimore as a band and who could forget the dude in the yellow shirt. we wrapped up with Vancouveror and Seattle.

    Seattle = 1, Charlottesville = 1A

    Thank you PJ great show great tour.

    1 show - Calgary

    Checking out the reviews and setlists and reading / hearing from fans elsewhere: I heard Calgary was the best show in their touring history (I know, I know: settle down :lol: ), although I didn't quite feel that. I felt it was an amazing show and I stood up, sang and cheered every second of the show. Then after Vancouver was over, I heard THAT show was the best of the tour; specifically better than Calgary (and therefore, possibly the best ever - again.. ya, ya, I know... but it's what I heard.) and thus the expectations for Seattle were through the roof. Spokane seems like an obvious bootleg I'll get, same with Calgary and Vancouver. Wrigley will be a no-brainer if they release it. Can't justify $375 on the whole leg. PUMPED to see what comes of Australia's setlists and reviews in New Year.

    I saw 4 shows (Bklyn 1 & 2, Hartford, Bmore) and I was also at Wrigley.

    I'd call Hartford the stand out show, but Brooklyn 1 was my first GA experience I was like 4 deep on Stones side, so it was memorable to say the least.

    But Wrigley was a different experience entirely. It was my first trip to Chicago, I was on the field of a famous baseball stadium, got to touch the grass n shit, and I stayed on the field even after the peeps I was with ducked into the concourse for cover. So I think Wrigley would win "stand out show of the year"

    Two Shows: Calgary & Vancouver

    I loved loved loved the Calgary setlist (openers, Red Mosquito, I Got Shit, Rats ...), but the crowd energy & band energy in Vancouver blew Calgary out of the water. So ...

    1. Vancouver
    2. Calgary

    Six, separated by the thickness of a piece of paper.

    London
    Wrigley
    Spokane
    Calgary
    Vancouver
    Seattle

    Honestly, it'd be difficult to choose one over the rest. I'll probably say Seattle, because it was a lifelong dream of mine to see Pearl Jam there, but all six shows were phenomenal.

    I went to Wrigley and Vancouver. Wrigley and Chicago was a crazy experience that will never be forgotten or underappreciated, and all the people i met of course made the whole trip special, but if we're just talking actual shows and crowd and band energy and set lists, Vancouver blew Wrigley out of the water for me! Loved the Wrigley setlist, and the Release opener was the single best moment out of the two shows, but i liked the Vancouver setlist way better overall. Didn't hurt that i was 8 feet from Eddie in Vancouver and probably 500 feet from him at Wrigley. :lol: It also didn't hurt that the Vancouver crowd was incredible (and not up way past its bedtime :lol: There were literally some people asleep in their seats at Wrigley as 2am neared :fp: ... But I will never forget how cool and totally surreal it was to be at Wrigley Field under a post-storm sky and a big ass moon seeing a Pearl Jam concert in the middle of the night!). The people around me in the Vancouver pit were super into it, the band was in as good a mood as they ever get, and i was finally at a show when i didn't have either the flu or heat stroke, so i could go absolutely bananas on the floor in Vancouver! :D I just felt so fucking GOOD inside and out at the Vancouver show! Plus, we got It's Okay. Yay. 8-)

    I still miss Chicago though. :(

    Wrigley ( the first 9 songs)
    Pitt
    Dallas
    OKC
    Seattle


    a lot of repeats.

    Probably give Pitt or Dallas the lean for best. Wrigley was awesome for those 9 songs, then went to shit.

    Four shows. My order for one and two has changed a bunch of times. They really are 1 and 1a.

    1) Worcester 1
    1a) Hartford
    3) Wrigley
    4) Worcester 2

    If they played the full show they had planned Wrigley would have blown everything else away...and that is no knock on everything else. Not really fair to compare.
