Setlists. 25 songs is the perfect length and it was all from the first 5 albums.
That and the Posters were insane0 -
It was such a unique tour. The shows were a combination of raw energy mixed in with a band that had been going strong for several years at that point, so they were also a little refined. They were also starting to become comfortable in their own skin with regards to being a touring band. Plus Ed was moving on from being introverted/cynical Ed to being cool/sarcastic Ed.
It was before the internet was everywhere. The online community was still very small. That was the last tour you can say that about as far as I am concerned. I miss that.
It was also before the crowd sang along to so many songs without being prompted as they do now. Back then you sang along when Ed coaxed you to for the most part. Now like 1/2 the songs are a 20k person chorus (which is fun, but it changes the dynamic of the show).
And the setlists started to really become a thing of beauty. I believe this is the first tour Ed started crafting setlists with the crowd in mind, all of the time.
And any time you saw Brain of J it was going to rip your face off.
I saw 3 shows. Wish I saw 30.Bright eyed kid: "Wow Typo Man, you're the best!"
Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"0 -
saw 8 shows that tour. the nj, msg, msg run was an absolutely amazing few days. watching the "breathe" campaign gain momentum throughout that three show run was so awesome.
la was fun too! kkk took my baby away was killer.
i just remember the 98 tour being so relaxed compared to 96. the boys were actually having fun.
and my did the posters kick some ass that tour!Post edited by mcgruff10 onI'll ride the wave where it takes me......0 -

I loved the 98 tour. Went to six shows... Alpine 1 and 2, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, and Indianapolis. So many great memories. Being twenty years old and road tripping with a few friends to new cities. Best Pearl Jam tour ever. And great posters. Still have my St. Louis poster from 1998. I need to get that framed!Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.0

4 shows and deciding on the spur of the moment to attend Knoxville.
rewarded with Hard to Imagine in the encore....
Only played 3 times that tour.
first time I realized that there were other fans like me that would travel around on short runs. talking with the same people show after show.
recording the show on my Sony cassette recorder and listening to them on the way to the next show.
best tour ever by the band....livefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446

Nice...I got HTI in Montreal.Bright eyed kid: "Wow Typo Man, you're the best!"

It was really a return. I know in many cities they hadnt played there since 93. And if they had it was an annoying field or something.
It was nice to get bootlegs in the mail every few days. Maxell XL II's!!!0 -
lucky man.BinFrog said:Nice...I got HTI in Montreal.
man, I seriously decided to blow off work and go to the Knoxville show.
I just had a feeling that they were gonna play it.
was my fave at the time.
I could never do that nowadays.
I miss the 90s, man.Post edited by lolobugg onlivefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446

oh yeah. and I forgot the Oceans opener in Greenville.
I was on the rail GA in front of Mike.
Mike laid down on the subwoofers right in front of me. I literally could've reached out and de-tuned his guitar.
That was my second show in the front row so I guess he recognized me. I was wearing some ridiculous wig to all the shows...
Jeff even pointed to me right before Indifference and mouthed WTF??
Man, you guys got me all nostalgic.... :xlivefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446
