From the moment Ed took the stage to play Atlantic City I had goosebumps. It ended with me being a sweaty, voiceless happy fan. I took my girlfriend to the show, her first. She is not a big fan, but she had a blast, I think she enjoyed watching how I get lost in the music and let loose even more. I thought the crowd was great, I was near the back of GA and had plenty of space to dance around. When Matt came out to play the tamborine with Sleater Kinney I lost it. I kept thinking about Fonzi playing the bongo's on Happy Days (showing my age). I was impressed with Sleater Kinney tonight, in my opinion they sounded better than when they opened for them in Hershey. When they broke out "Mother" I was wondering how they would pull it off, but they did a great version. As for Pearl Jam they were incredible. I was mad that I was wishing for summer to be over in anticipation for this show, but it was well worth it. I was lucky enough to get tickets from ticketbastard, but I would have paid the $$$ ebay was getting, not that I agree with that. It looked like the band was having as much fun as the crowd, their energy was great even while still recuperating from the night before. I met some great fans before, during and after the show. I was amazed at how loud the crowd was and how they got the floor shaking. I don't think any show will rival this one for me. The venue was intimate and the setlist was great. I was only hoping they would have played Footsteps to complete the mamasan trilogy.

My only regret was that I was not able to meet more fans after the show.

Excuse my rambling. See you in Philly!!

smittyballz · October 2005

u guys really need to get out more and see more shows... this show was not that good... ottawa was a great show... and the 3 day tour in boston was unbelievable.....

vedderwood · October 2005

These two Borgata shows were fucking unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was in the front row in front of Mike/Mike's speakers both nights (and finally met wonderful board members....solat, lips, thatgirl, chromiam...hi guys! I had a blast)! Amazing!!!!!!!!!! To see Mike and Eddie so close (Eddie came over to our side a few times on 9/30) was just unreal! I need to get my pictures developed ASAP! Just to be in the room at such intimate shows were incredible! The shock from the band both nights was priceless....they so weren't expecting the crowds to be as ridiculous as they were!

10/1.....friggin amazing!!!!!!! The crowd singing the entire first verse of "Porch" was just chilling! During "Not For You" Eddie pointed out how beautiful it was how the crowd took over the song and it showed a real sense of community! "Leash".....my god, what can I say????? I honestly had an ounce of hope that we actually convinced them to play it....it seemed so possible at that point! After chanting "DROP THE LEASH" intensely quite a few times, Eddie said "Point well taken...maybe next year"!!!! "Breath" and "Solat" back to back...awesome!!!! Opening with "Present Tense" was beautiful!!! I've never gotten to see "Leatherman" or "U" live, so that was a treat for me! "STBC" was great with the "Leash" insert! The crowd was crazy on "Given To Fly"! And to just be honored with a new song was priceless!!!!! "Gone" was beautiful and I couldn't be happier to have been in the crowd to hear it for the first time!

One other thing...I'm not sure if anyone else already posted this, but before "Bee Girl" Eddie said "We were gonna save this for Philly"....which I'm hoping means they have a lot of surprises for us tonight!!!!! I'll see you all tonight in Philly.............I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who are u again...When I want your opinion I'll give it to you!

smittyballz · October 2005

so your gonna give me my opinion.. makes a lot of sense... the show was good not great...get over it.. ive seen much better.. its not a big deal.... i was disappointed..the setlist besides the new song and ace was very generic...I was looking for some new variations of some songs... almost everyone paid at least 300 dollars a ticket some paid a lot more.. they could have at least played leash.. and i was not waiting for one song the whole time.. i would have been happy with masters of war or driftin.. oceans.. i can go on

Jeff Murray · October 2005

One thing just hit me. I thought it was funny when Ed said Mike's guitar pulled a muscle. And then commented that he wondered if the guitar ever imagined that it would go from playing Peggy Sue to get abused by Mike. They definitely were having fun on stage that night.

One hour until the trek to Philly begins....

Ace fucking TORE UP the solos on RITFW. I was never a big KISS fan, but let me tell you, he was ripping that song up with his 007 t-shirt. Seeing him jam with Mike and Stone right on top of him was incredible. You could see how into it they were. It was incredible.

I'm thinking about changing my screenname to ACEIZGOD

We saw Ace in "The Metropolitan" late night after the show Sunday early AM.
(Only place open for food late night)

Was he drunk? And, did anyone approach him as far as you saw?

I agree. the show was good, environment was amazing and the crowd was great. Show and setlist were good, but you are correct sir, Ottawa was better than Sat. Peace

scottnar · October 2005

Borgata was unbelievable. The venue was great easy access in and out, small adn the set list was fantastic. I was one of the Toronto bashers because they played all the popular songs like betterman and daughter, from immortality to the end of the 1st set was unbelievable. Not for you was fantastic. No leash, oh well. Great show, new song. Long live PJ

abhi101cru · October 2005

Yeah, I went to both shows and thought that they were both amazing, I was front row too...so everything was just fucking perfect. I was looking forward to hearing black, release, and corduroy...but oh well, i'm sure i'll catch it another time. To all of you that are at the philly show right now, YOU ARE SOOOOOOO LUCKY!!!

oceans23 · October 2005

Wow..... simply stated... my 14th show and it was great... Stayed in Brigitine 1 mile down the road at a great hotel ( La Sammana ) .. highly recommend it...
what a venue.... Met Todd McClough and some other guy who plays for the Nets... I thought the crowd was very cool.. not too young and not too old... just right... Harvest Moon ..... thank you....

This show was the biggest letdown..... .. the new song was good but if we all dont know it we cant enjoy it...

Are you kidding me? I was at the show saturday night and reading everyone's opinion of the show. I myself think it was one of the best shows since my first (randals island '96). You are entiled to your opinion, but how can you say we can't enjoy a new song if we all don't know it.. That was a brand new effin song that eddie just wrote.. You had the priviledge of being the first to hear it! And can't enjoy that? I am sure if this song ends up on the new cd and becomes a hit, you will be the first one running around saying how great the song is and how awesome it was when you were there to hear it live for the first time...

Anyway. That's just dumb.

during the leash chant jeff says to ed we dont fu@#king know it.

Nothingbetter · October 2005

We just got back to Kansas yesterday and we're still on a high from the show. We got in a wreck in the parking lot of the airport, and it's still not enough to bring me down from the show. Truly amazing. I was about 10 feet from the stage...about 7 people rows back, but essentially that would be like first row in most other venues. It was crowded, but it was a great time. We met some really nice people where we stood before the show and they helped me look out for my wife, lol. She's really short, so they were very thoughtful in helping her find room to see the stage.

Everyone has pretty much covered the details of the show, but I thought it was pretty funny at the end of "Don't Gimme No Lip" when Stone started sarcastically swinging the mic around. It was pretty funny.

AWESOME show and I just downloaded the boot, so going to check it out. Cheers!

You could go on, but then you'd sound like a whiney bitch. Saying they should have at least played Leash makes it sound like you feel it was owed to you. That's a stuck up, fucked up kind of mentality.

The show was very good. The best? Nah. Honestly, I liked Kissimmee better, as I told my wife, but the small venue made it all the worth while, even if it wasn't the best show in terms of the set list. I got closer than I'll probably ever get, and got to experience them in a small venue. I think that's what made the show awesome for me....I did like some of the set list. Not all, but most of it.....but just the experience of the smaller venue made it worthwhile.

Some of the guys from the Steve and Preston radio show said they saw him in the casino and said great show to him as they walked by and he just mumbled thanks.
