    I don't know what to say that's already been said but I went to both the Calgary and Edmonton shows, and both were just amazing. I liked the Edmonton show a bit better because Pearl Jam played more of the songs I was hoping to hear (especially WishList!) but I think the Calgary fans had more energy and definately more volume!
    I was really pleased with my seats, the Ten Club definately pulled through for me. In Calgary I was Section 108 row 7, and Edmonton I was freaking thrilled with being section 120 row 2.
    One thing I gotta give props to Edmonton for are the men. I have never seen so many good looking guys in 26 hours!

    Hey, my wife & I were in Sect 108 for Cgy as well. Row 2. Awsome seats and a rockin' section.

    Had 14th row floor for Edm show. Highlight was Boom vs Mike solos...blew me away. Hearing Jeremy was cool too, they haven't busted out the orig. version of that much in years past. I also managed a bunch of cool pictures.

    Overall, I prefered the Cgy show but that's just me. Edm sound was far better (man, does the sound in the Dome blow) and louder too I thought.

    Looking forward to Sask tonite...off to grab a flight in 25 minutes!

    (I figured I'd post this in the edmonton thread becasue that's were I am now.) weren't they unreal? I don't know which one I liked better becasue they both kind of bled together in that it was like calgary was the first act the drive up to edmonton was the intermision and starting at the stonehouse preparty was the second act. I think the fact that they were back to back made both so much better, I was surprised they did so many "hits" but it was cool to hear even flow and save you back to back nights. so much fun met someone from Dallas and we agreed to send each other music (me cool canadian bands like death from above, rheostatics, and the arcade fire etc., him some cool southen rock I guess) and I ended up going with him in edmonton becasue he had an extra ticket. exceededd all expectations and I think I made a convert out of at least a few of my friends who saw the show, even the edmonton sun music guy who for all intensive purposes has his head up his ass said it was a great show. all in all the best way ever to end such a pitifull horrible summer.

    so i've looked at the other setlists, and i'm actually really happy with this edmonton show... i saw PJ in 98 (barrie, ontario), and at that show they played almost all of my favourites... rvm, black, immortality, state of love and trust, i got shit, so.. missing those songs at this concert for me wasn't a big deal.... and i DID get fuckin' up, NOTHING AS IT SEEMS, crazy mary, porch, release, and sad, aside from all the other awesome songs... listening to it over and over again... pearl jam is such a good live band... it makes me so happy that they're still around making good music and playing awesome shows.. but... i feel like an idiot for not going down to calgary.. i totally should have gone... maybe i'll get another chance.. .and hey, i still don't know very many people (personally) who have seen pj twice.

    umm... my overall point? just adding my opinion that the edmonton show was amazing... one of the best shows i've been to in the last couple of years.


    edit: just wanted to add that (to make my first point more clear) browsing the setlists, i probably would have picked edmonton if i could have only one setlist to see live, so that's it... best setlist of the tour so far (for me personally), even though it is a little shortER (but come on, 23 songs is hardly short)... especially because of nothing as it seems.... what a show.. what a show..

    How did the sound level of Boom come out on the bootleg compared to the others??
    Hopefully LOUDER!!

    well, i haven't bought the other boots (yet - might later), but boom isn't too loud... you can hardly hear him except in the crazy mary solo. this is exactly how it was at the actual show. i strained to hear him, and that was with earplugs.

    I think I was right behind you, but I could see around you so I didn't care one bit. I was caught up in the moment, for sure.

    Everybody's said good stuff about the show, all I can really add is that I've haven't seen or heard a version of Crazy Mary that good, ever.

I was dying inside to just run after you guys and never look back. haha.. glad you had a good time.

    It was a loooooong wait to see these guys again, but what a show... It was like I had been thrown into a weird time warp where 12 years just suddenly melted away and I was 17 and seeing Pearl Jam again - I am so wishing now that I had had the cash to catch the Calgary show as well. Elderly Woman actually brought tears to my eyes when he sang the "my god it's been so long" line...

    To the two guys who switched tickets with me so they could be on Mike's side of the stage - thank you so much - I had an awesome view of Stone, Boom and Ed from the 4th row!

    I was right in front of the gentleman who got the last tambourine - you lucky devil, I was envious.

    To the guy from Lethbridge who sat next to me - sorry I didn't actually get around to introducing myself, I was a little overwhelmed :O)

    Here's to hoping this tour brings them back to Canada again soon!!!

    greatest concert of my life, met a few people from the board. Had a great time at the Stonehouse and won two extra tickets in the gold section, was able to take one of my best friends and the ex girlfrield.
    Still cant really even comprehend that I saw them. Had ninth row tix on the floor right in front of Eddie.
    I shall see them again....maybe in NY in the spring?

    hey Cree, sorry I didn't get to meet you.. I was sitting at the far booth under the T.V.. hadn't been to Edmonton in a few months.. since I moved so was sitting with old friends and some new jammers chatting away. Would love to meet up sometime in the future tho... I just bought a cool C.D. Northern Cree the Sweethearts Shuffle.. Round Dance songs.. I bet you'd love it.
    Great Edmonton show eh.. I was front row in front of Mike.. never been in the front before.. it was amazing.. I was in awe.. barely danced at all.. I bet I had the deer in the headlights look.
