    None so far. He has appeared with the Supersuckers twice though. One word of advice though - the set change is usually only about 30 minutes, quicker than most.
    Eddie Would Go.

    So I was next to a beautiful woman Section 112 Row 8 in Calgary... Now shes gone and its killing me... A fantastic show made better by being next to someone who loved it as much as me, and Ill never see her again. gonelikethat@hotmail.com

    So I was hoping the woman of my dreams would see the post and respond, but alas, gone.....
    Ive listened to the show three times in its entirety and smile each time, what a ride, first time seeing them, best show Ive ever seen.
  • I've been a long time pearl jam listener (before Ten was released, all I had to listen to was a live recording of Alive, recorded from the t.v. onto a cassette). My how technology has progressed. Anyway, I've been to more live concerts than most over the years, and I have to say that this one rates highly. Awesome interaction between band and fans. It's nice to be in a venue where enough people realize that this is your chance to sing along with one of your favourite bands, to their songs. You do it in your car for years, and when you finally get to see a band that you've listened to since you were a teenager; it doesn't get any better. As well, I can't ever recall seeing that many people packed into the Dome for a concert. People behind the stage, in the damn rafters. It felt like game 7. That show definitely will resonate in my head for a long time. Especially "Elderly Woman" and "Rockin In The Free World". Neil Young is royalty in Canada, and to hear Pearl Jam play that song here (with what's going on in the world today), was unreal.
  • On another site, I heard that Pearl Jam played a few songs during their soundcheck (see here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/giventowailrss/6853.html)

    I haven't heard about that from anywhere else... does anyone know if it's true? Because I'd hate to hear that I miss those songs, especially Present Tense!

    The Calgary show was amazing. The energy was incredible. It was the best out of the 3 I've seen so far on this tour... though I think the St. John's shows are going to be killer. Because Newfies know how to bring the house down!
    Makes much more sense to live in the Present Tense.

    Shows: 05/30/03, 09/02/05, 09/04/05, 09/05/05, 09/24/05, 09/25/05, 07/22/06, 04/02/08 (EV solo), 08/08/09, 08/23/09, 08/24/09, 09/25/09, 09/21/11, 09/23/11, /9/30/12, 12/02/13... many more to come!

  • It's been over a week since the show now and not a day's gone by without listening to the boot. Such a great setlist, from the Oceans opener to Red Mosquito and Hard to Imagine!! It's all great stuff.

    And the crowd!! I just can't believe that crowd was in Calgary. Wish I could live it all again.
  • By far, the best crowd at ANY show I've heard yet, even more involved than the U2 show in April. Opening with Oceans? HELL YES.

    Thank you Pearl Jam, for putting on the best concert experience of my life *thus far*. Amazing.

    THANK YOU! IT'S THE TRUTH! The energy in CALGARY was waaaaay intense. One of the best crowds I have EVER...I mean EVER been a part of.

    This show was so special. *tears&chills* As others have said, the dream became a reality O~C~E~A~N~S!!!! *tears up* THIS HAPPENED?!? WHaaat!?!? I still can't believe it. OMG!!!! :o:D <insert words here> Too much!! This really made my life. Seriously. :o

    They floor us with that then BEAT US TO A PULP with the back to back killers....

    Last Exit!!!, Corduroy, Whipping!!, Hail Hail!!, Do The Evolution

    DAMN!!! :eek:

    Even though were were nearly out of breath, on we marched. Everyone feeding off of each other to the extreme. Everywhere I looked, bodies bouncing, HUGE HUGE smiles! The loudest "YEAH" during Alive that I have ever taken part in. Wow!

    BLACK/(We belong together) <~~ are you kidding me?!? How amazing/unbelievable/special was this!!! AHH! *faints*


    Betterman/(I wanna be your boyfriend). AWWW!! Was THRILLED for this tag too. So special!

    TOo many highlights to list with this show! :o

    OH - STONE WAS ON FIRE THE WHOLE TIME TOO!! Good god! <~~~~~~


    Crowd was looooooud!!!!<~~~ can't stress this enough

    Oh man, I could easily go on forever. Even though I already summed up all 4 shows in one thread I HAD to come and give CALGARY some more lovin. This show is so near and dear to my heart. LIFE CHANGING to the max! There aren't possibly enough words to do this show justice. All I can say is all 4 I attened were SOOOO special, but there were extra things going on here in CALGARY. The MAGIC was super exaggerated. So intimate, the crowd unity was unreal. Heaven on earth. Talk about a LOVE BUZZ!!!


    (((THANK YOU PEARL JAM )))) for one of the GREATEST SHOWS EVER!!!!

    The vibe of being with 10C members is something totally different from sitting in the general crowd at the show. This was my first 10C show (since the '03 show was first come first serve and we had to drive 8 hours that same day just to get there, we would have wound up with the worst seats, ever.) and the vibe was incredible, infectious, electric.

    I still get goosebumps listening to the boot, even right now.
  • Flippin' exstatic that for once I got to hear the 3/4 count off and not have it wind up being 1/2 Full. Finally it was Red Mosquito...Fans of RM will know what I mean...it's torture to hope for RM during the count off and get 1/2 full instead...

    <~~~ been listening to the boot A LOT lately

    Thought it was time for another **I AM LOVE WITH CALGARY** bump! :D

    Ooooh my god....after GIVEN TO FLY!??! HOLY SHIT! We are soooo loud! :eek: *chills* Seriously. Wow. This crowd was so amazing. Ahhh I can't get over it. :D What a LOVE FEST!!!!!

    HA! Totally. Oooh man I so know what you mean. The beginning of 1/2 Full always has me like "OMG RED MOSQUITO?!!?" I hear ya! Yeah, to have Ed introduce it ahead of time here definitely cleared that up too...but still it was like "OMG RED MOSQUITO?!!?" haha. "Is this really happening?!" :eek: Unreal.

    I was just going off (again!) about this show earlier tonight. Even a friend that has pretty much all the boots (hasn't been to any shows) has been telling me he's fallen EXTRA hard for Calgary. There really was some SUPER magic going on here. I can't get it outta my head/heart/soul.

    And this version of O~C~E~A~N~S has been in such high rotation. :o!!! Perhaps it's because I still can't believe it happened so the more I listen the more I think it may just sink in. :p haha. NO really, it's also because this is one of THE most gorgeous versions I have ever heard. It's sooooooo chilled out!!! I absolutely love the late start they got on it too...teasing us all to the extreme...the anticipation at an all time high. haha. And that's the way it was all night...about to fuckin POP!!! PARTY TIME!!<~~ really though! HUGE ASS PARTY/LOVE FEST!!!

    Said it before and won't ever stop saying it....HAIL HAIL CALGARY! :D

    {{{THANK YOU}}}

    Yes! Good call with the bumpin action rcs! I just listened to the boot a few days ago myself...I couldn't help but get emotional. Smiles, tears, chills...the best of all worlds. I'll NEVER get over this show. It continues to blow my mind and seriously holds such a special place in my heart. This show was MAGIC taken to a whole new level... exaggerated beyond belief. This feeling is something that will never go away. Everytime someone mentions this show, everytime I hear the boot, everytime I just THINK about this gorgeous night my entire spirit is lifted. There really was something extra special going on here. The LOVE was sooooo intense. The crowd was sooooo loud & drop dead gorgeous. This was by far the prime example of why I love this band & the fans as deeply as I do. Absolutely beeeeeautiful!!!

    I can't say it enough...

    {{::~HAIL HAIL CALGARY~::}}


    :D

    One of the greatest PJ love fests to date!!! The lucky ones we were to be a part of such extreme magic. :o:D

    THANK YOU ALL!
