Not that they were bad or anything. The Pepsi Center is a shitty venue and Tom Petty isn't worth seeing. And the prices were ridiculous, but this is all old news. Pearl Jam really rocked for an "opening band," and we even saw Leash. I felt like a jackass not knowing what the song was, just because I had already dismissed any chance of seeing this song months ago, when I heard the shows were with Petty. Unfortunately, all the highlights of the show were older songs, particularly off Ten & VS. Even Flow, Black, Why Go, and Leash were the definite highlights. Insignificance was special for me, and that was the best version ever. Severed Hand was the best new song, but WWS is shit.
I saw Primus & Tool this year, and there are no highlights for either show. That is because of how fucking incredible they were. Life changing experiences! Its strange that Tool and Primus were both headliners, and their setlists were pretty much the same length as Pearl Jam being an opening band. Pearl Jam had a weak crowd, and the sound wasn't very loud, even though they were spot on. I guess there is no point to this post. So, sorry you read it.

Fuck Petty!

    You're an idiot. You've contradicted yourself about 4 times. You didn't know what Leash was.... yet the highlights were the songs off Vs & Ten? I've also heard that Tool don't change their setlists up much at all.

    I think you're a casual fan.

    You now, I don't mind opinions...whether they praise or they slag Pearl Jam, I don't mind at all...Pearl Jam is hardly perfect.

    But I do mind pointlessness.

    hahahahaha
    hehehehehe

    And if you found a Tool show a life changing event, I wouldn't expect you to appreciate Tom Petty.

    (I'm not slagging Tool btw, just trying to make a point:) )

    Because they really need to come and post the fact on a PJ forum, especially when it's clear that he/she/it is a casual fan who has no idea what's going on with Pearl Jam. If this person prefers the predictability of a Tool show or wasting time and money on never-beens like Primus, I have no problem with it, but maybe try posting that on one of their message boards.

    I would hope this person is more than a casual fan w/ 3,000 posts on the boards.
