ED IT'S TIME TO MAKE TORONTO SPECIAL
with 2 shows coming up it is time to do something special here like what happens in philadelphia or say new york. time to play more rarities and even an album like RIOT ACT. maybe back to back shows with very few or no repeat songs like in 03 at the dte center in michigan. toronto has supported and loved this band with sellouts of tickets since day 1. in the nicest way i can say please show us that we are deserving of a special show too. as a side note i was again very impressed by the compassion and caring of this band in quebec city the other night. the reference to valerie was very touching . as well bringing a 10 year old where this music has really helped him, onto stage to be with his heroes was truly great. in sports when great stars are commented on about their play and the announcers will say as good as their play was they are even better people. this is the case here as well.

I think this attitude amongst Pearl Jam fans, the attitude of a stellar show not being enough is pretty toxic to be honest.
(Well, not really since they've only played three shows in Toronto since those two May 2006 shows.)

So....is that story sad enough?
Hmmmm...this is the different sort of "sad," isn't it? I believe it's the pathetic sad.
