    I still can't think coherently right now. I got to the venue around 4:30 to meet up with Chromiam and his gf dreamin'incolor and her sister. Got a text from Chrom saying that his gf had won the lottery and got front row in front of Jeff. So I go over and pick my tix up with two of my good friends shoetheshoeless and colorsblend and I get to the ticket window and as I'm signing the envelope to get my tix - all I see is Pit Row B on the tix and I'm like Holy Shit I won the lottery. As 212xxx I was expecting back of the 100 section and I got this grin on my face that rivaled the Kool Aid man's. I could barely speak to my friends who had just gotten their tix too including Amentschick, Xavier Mcdaniel, and nfanel after getting my tix. I can't believe I had won the lottery. Words can't describe that feeling when you see you are one of the lucky ones. I was an incoherent mess and was just smiling ear to ear.

    So I get to my seats with Chrom and we realize that row 1 is shorter than row 2 and that we were going to be on the rail in front of Stone for the show.

    I just can't describe the feeling that you feel getting to be upfront like that right now.

    So many highlights - reverse trilogy, Thin Air, Lowlight, Baba, seeing Jeff run around like a mad man, interacting with Stone and being part of anothing amazing crowd again like last night.

    I just can't believe what an amazing night it was and I want to thank the band and ten club for providing with an experience I'll never forget.

    I'll tell you this right now... yesterday was the better setlist, tonight was the better show. Much better crowd too, I thought.

    Great time. "Frat guys" next to my car were blaring very heavy metal, which kind of put a damper on my tailgate experience, but it turned itno a great time.

    Had better seats than last night, section 104 row AA (no, not front row). The band really appeared to be placed back in the early 90's again. very up-tempo night. Many variations in the songs. I would recommend this boot for that reason. The fuck-up on LBC was great.
    Eddie hitting the beach ball a bunch of times was hilarious. He also said because beer was $12 he wanted to buy everyone a beer, then he held out two beers and said there was a 2-beer limit, and said everyone should take a sip... and passed the beers on. On Baba ORielly he was running all over the place and leaping off of stuff. Smashed the mic stand at the end. It really didnt look like he wanted to leave. For some reason he (they) really seem to love playing at Camden. Im not biased either, Im not from around here.

    Really happy I saw Low Light. I love seeing it played in-person.

    Much younger-looking crowd tonight. Made me nervous early on, I thought Id see a lot of testosterone and fights, but from what I saw, everyone just had a good time and was (relatively) well-behaved.

    Overall, great show. May be 2nd favorite for me.

    you might have been in front of me, i was in 104 BB but in the 20s. great show indeed!

    great to see you again, i think my new rule is always go to at least one show in the philly area. they really know how to party, makes the traffic and wrong turns in camden worth it.

    First PJ show ever. Gotta say, it was a fuckin blast! Leaving the E Center was actually not as bad as what I'm used to, last time was from Buffet last year, tripping over 50-year-old parrotheads in kiddiepools of booze all the way to the parking lots isn't as fun as advertised. Spirits were high, energy was awesome... totally worth it, thanks yall!

    I didn't think they could top last night, but they did it tonight. My first time seeing a lot of songs in person: Brain of J, Low Light, Down, Nothing as it Seems, Thin Air, Insignificance, WMA, Footsteps, and Once! I don't understand why people think last night's setlist was better than tonight's...don't get me wrong, last night was incredible, but tonight's choice of songs were just as good if not better. I really don't know if DC or MSG2 can top tonight.

    that show was f'n awesome. wish i couldve made night one cus Rats woulda made my year but they played hard from start to finish.

    i can easily say this was the best show i've been to (of 4) and wished theyd have played another full set list.

    p.s. thin air was incredible

    went to both camden shows. night one was good. set was amazing with a lot of stuff i was really happy to hear. night two was also really good, and the crowd was definitely more into it and the band seemed more "on" as well. however, does anyone else have the same "complaint" as I do? They played SEVEN songs on both night 1 & night 2!!! Of course we're gonna hear evenflow every night - I get it. but then they opened night 2 w/ sev. hand after just playing it the night before. then corduroy,DTE, betterman, why go, and G2F all were played again on night 2. didn't I just hear those on night 1?? just strange to hear the boys replay so many songs on back to back nights in the same venue. dont get me wrong, I loved night 2. Just wondering if any one else was bothered by 1/4 of the setlist being the same songs as the night before?

    This is a true story.

    After the first encore, while waiting for the band to come back out, I turned to my friend and said "Dude, it'd be sick if they did Footsteps, Once, Alive, in that order." I said it half jokingly, not at all expecting them to do those at all, let alone in that exact order.

    Well, they came back out and did it and I fucking shit my pants. It's as if they read my mind. I must've had like a psychic connection with Ed and Stone for a split second. Amazing.

    Anyway, the energy was incredible tonight. Brain Of J, Animal, Green Disease, Down, Thin Air, W.M.A., Whipping, Comatose, Footsteps, Once; these were literally all the songs I wanted to hear. Many of them were firsts for the tour. It's like they did it just for me. And then came Mamasan.

    Plus, I got my poster, despite getting there around 6:50. I thought it'd be a lot harder, so I was very surprised.

    Basically, this night could not've gone better. :cool:



    WMA fucking rocked. That made my night.

    Also, I wandered into the venue at 8:20 and accidentally got into the poster line. My friend and I got wrist bands immediately. stood in line about 40 seconds. Beautiful night. The parking lots after the show didn't even suck as bad as they usually do at Camden.


    Also, I was in 140 AA. Seems like a lot of ppl were there. I was suprised too because my 10c# is 316,xxx so im not complaining!

    Thank you so much Bill. Your generosity made this night another brilliant memory for Greg and myself!
    The show was spectacular, of course. Quite a few songs I'd yet to hear live. NasamaM kicked ass! ;) The whole show is a blur, and I need to collect my thoughts, so I'll refrain from too much detail.
    Hell, even the nightmare of the trip home will go down as epic to myself and my group! Post-Riverline Bus #2 people, you know who you are. Thanks a bunch!!

    Another amazing show. i think i liked the first night a little better which has more to do with where I was sitting tonight. everyone in section 103 around me didnt seem to know any songs but the hits. only real complaint was pg opening the show with a song we'd already heard the night before, sev hand. Was kinda hoping for release or long road.
    Get over here!

    What is this obsession with the setlist? The setlist does not make the show.


    Hey. No offense or anything(trust me, even though I've been to a lot of shows...I'm not a fanatic or anything; just really love pearl jam and go to a few shows each time they tour my area), but given these are the first concerts you're going to I'm going to assume you don't grasp the "fascination" with the setlists. No pearl jam show is a bad show, but a show with a "better" setlist can set it apart from others. Just not to obsess about though. But given they have so many damn good songs it's hard to have a bad concert experience. That and given the fact they f-in rock out every concert.

    That Show Was Sick!!
    My second PJ show, my first was Hartford '06.

    First off, I can't believe nobody mentioned the Pre-set.
    Ed came out and played You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, but he stopped before the third verse and asked a guy a few rows back what he was talking about and why he had told the lady near him to put her sign down. then he told her to put it back up, and it was an American Flag! haha

    Ted Leo was ok. I thought he got kind of obnoxious after a while though.

    Severed Hand as an opener is totally rockin, this was my second show where they opened with it. Very solid setlist, Brian of J, NAIS, WMA, Low Light, Whipping, Lukin, GTF were all highlights to me.

    The second encore was pretty cool. Cool to hear the trilogy,(I don't know what its called) But I could have done without Alive just in general. Baba O'Riley was very cool. Eddie got really into and kept jumping all around the stage and up and over the side monitors and falling and missing tambourines all over the place.

    Over all it was a very good show, kind of short, but still very good.
    I think I might have to catch them again in Hartford :)

    Um, Ok.

    He said at Storytellers that the crowd has changed that song for him.
    Changed it from a negative oh great I'm still Alive kind of thing to an anthem of life and energy.

    Last night was one of my favorite shows out of 26! Thur's set list was awesome and I thought nothing could touch it really but last night the band was so on and the crowd was nuts! So fun! WMA - made my night...and I am a big Footsteps fan so I always love hearing that and low light...so nice! Can't wait for the next show!

    Holy shit, you were close :)

    So glad for you. Hopefully they'll still have the lottery for the tours when I can actually get 10c tickets :o

    I still can't think coherently right now. I got to the venue around 4:30 to meet up with Chromiam and his gf dreamin'incolor and her sister. Got a text from Chrom saying that his gf had won the lottery and got front row in front of Jeff. So I go over and pick my tix up with two of my good friends shoetheshoeless and colorsblend and I get to the ticket window and as I'm signing the envelope to get my tix - all I see is Pit Row B on the tix and I'm like Holy Shit I won the lottery. As 212xxx I was expecting back of the 100 section and I got this grin on my face that rivaled the Kool Aid man's. I could barely speak to my friends who had just gotten their tix too including Amentschick, Xavier Mcdaniel, and nfanel after getting my tix. I can't believe I had won the lottery. Words can't describe that feeling when you see you are one of the lucky ones. I was an incoherent mess and was just smiling ear to ear.

    So I get to my seats with Chrom and we realize that row 1 is shorter than row 2 and that we were going to be on the rail in front of Stone for the show.

    I just can't describe the feeling that you feel getting to be upfront like that right now.

    So many highlights - reverse trilogy, Thin Air, Lowlight, Baba, seeing Jeff run around like a mad man, interacting with Stone and being part of anothing amazing crowd again like last night.

    I just can't believe what an amazing night it was and I want to thank the band and ten club for providing with an experience I'll never forget.
    you're so lucky! good for you! nice to see the seats were well appreciated.

    I had a great time last night, but enjoyed Camden 1 more. Felt really bad about the couple parked next to us who got robbed - stole all of their tix for the next 6 shows!!! Among other things, like his passport...ugh.
    No time to be void or save up on life...you've got to spend it all.
