Leak setlists suck and someone yelling the songs beforehand geeze wtf that's annoying.

Either way Glad everyone had such a great time it was a special night in a special place

He announced Footsteps right before it was played while looking at his phone. Thankfully, when I asked him not to read the setlist out loud as some of us don't want to know, he obliged..... He only spoiled the surprise of one song, but I still felt it was worth mentioning. It's a shitty thing to do.

Amateurs! Why do people think it's a good ting to know what's coming at shows of bands that mix it up? That's the whole point! It's just a continuation of the new generation, "look at me, look at my selfie, look at my phone, see what I know, now give me attention". UGH.

I think I peaked during Deep and had tears about all the great memories I've had with live Pearl Jam over the years. Breath was my favorite song of the night.

Fun way to take in a PJ show! Makes you wonder, at the time, that the music as made especially for this!

Smartphones do not make you smart. They just inflate your sense of self importance. #selfphones

The feeling I got when I heard the opening notes of Breath was easily the biggest highlight in a weekend filled with highlights; I can't put into words what I felt when I heard that guitar.

That never would have happened if that guy read off the whole list. There are worse things that could happen I know, but seriously...... have a little common sense, or at least awareness of the people around you.

Sadly, the first 2 things to go when the screen takes over.
Have you seen these people on the streets? DRIVING?

Or at Fenway during a baseball game...homies should be paying attention to what's actually occurring as opposed to that nonsense.

Thanks . I am staying positive.

In the past I would never spend that for a weekend , but I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma . It tends to be fatal, but I had a stem cell transplant last year and the cancer is undetectable. My future is uncertain, so I am having a spending spree lately

Very happy this was my 25th show. Sad the tour is over for me but grateful I got to see seven shows this amazing tour.

The view last night from section A4 row 24 was spectacular. So happy to have been on the turf both nights B4 night 1). Highlights were NAIS as the third song and Angel. So fun and I'll miss Fenway and Boston.

Have fun for those at wrigley. Maybe I'll be at some shows for PJ26

I guess I shouldn't mention I got those tix the day of the show for face value

Whoa, $6500.00 for a weekend?? I can't even wrap my mind around HAVING that much to spend, never mind actually spending it, in one weekend. But I guess people who have that kind of money are way used to dropping that on a single weekend? Holy cow!

We were standing right next to the section for fans with disabilities. I'd already gone over to say hi to the sign language interpreters, and then I looked over a little later and they had the setlist right there on a lectern and were going over it, I guess planning who would do which songs. It was SO HARD not to look, yet not hard at all. I announced to everyone in my area "The setlist is over there - I had to tell you all so we could all collectively NOT look, but the pressure was too much for me to bear alone!" They all laughed, we all glanced, but NONE OF US actually went over to look or tried to read it. We all wanted to be surprised, although it's hard to not have burning curiosity when it's right there. It was also fun as fans to be a little group making a bit of a group decision "No, no, we want to be surprised!"

NOTHING AS IT SEEMS.

LOVE REIGN.

the 2 songs i hoped for.

unforgettable night! more later! now for the 3.5 hour trek home!
since i'm having a case of post concert depression right now might as well update my "more later..."

i was lucky enough to win 10c tickets, my first time winning through the lottery. (thanks 10club!!) ended up in right field box 94, behind pesky's pole. guess that's what i get for being a yankee fan. i could still see the stage pretty well though. fenway park is absolutely beautiful. the people around us were cool too. to the couple with the 2 young boys sitting next to us and rocking out all night, you guys are awesome! raising them right.

what else is there to say about that setlist that someone hasn't said...i got my top 2 white whales in 1 show. amazing. when NAIS started in the 3 slot, i was in shock. missed my favorite song by 1 show not once, but twice, and to get it so early in the setlist was just incredible. i turned to my bf and said "if the show ended now i would be good!" it was true. and it just got better and better from there. crowd and band were so into it. you could tell how appreciative and humbled eddie was playing in this place. the atmosphere was really something else. tried to take it as much in as i could.

really, i could comment on every song. nothingman, animal, in hiding, not for you...immortality was AMAZING. mike absolutely ripped it! hell, even flow was fantastic! never get sick of that solo. deep is one of my favorites. what an awesome first set. second set even better. yellow moon is my favorite off LB. then ANGEL!!!, footsteps!, great betterman tag...loved hearing all of eddie's stories!

third set. smile. go. started off rocking, right? then when eddie mentions mr. boom gaspar...i knew it. those opening chords started and i lost my shit. i have goosebumps now reliving it. my other white whale, LOVE REIGN AT FENWAY!!! it's kind of embarrassing how much i cried while singing along, all the emotions that came over me...i can't put it into words. amazing. topped a already fantastic night off.

DTE > breath > alive to end it was great. i will never get sick of the singalong to alive. the bf and i ended up leaving during rockin' because we had a 4 hour ride home with work on monday. and we were both exhausted. my 5th and final show this year. between visiting boston and salem and obviously pj at fenway, last weekend was one of the greatest experiences of my life. thank you thank you thank you, pearl jam! i love this band!
Hey !!!! Great review. My wife and I did something similar on Friday night. We left at the tail end of Baba to drive 4 hours back to Brooklyn! Got home around 3 went to work at 7AM. So worth it! Drive back Sunday morning and Had Monday off so we were able to stay in the venue until they kicked us out. What a night and an unforgettable weekend. Hoping for shows next year no matter where. I'll follow them anywhere.
hey! thank you! and congrats on your front row seats, that's freaking amazing!! you're crazy for doing that drive twice in a few days though! haha. we booked a hotel about a half hour out of boston and came up friday night. did the tourist-y thing sat/sun.

absolutely hoping for more shows next year, just need to save up more money so i could travel farther than just ny/ma/ct to see them. sure i'll see y'all at a future show!

We had no choice lol. I HAD to work on Saturday. But I'll do that drive 10 times to see them. It was worth every minute!

Anyone have an idea why Matt and Eddie started "Wooden Jesus" but stopped abruptly before they went into Breath? That would've been amazing!

Fooling around while Jeff was getting the right bass if I remember correctly.

This was my first show and, boy, did I pick a doozy. There are simply no words that could even come close to describing this, although we all try here. I did not have any "white whales" since, this being the first show, they were all white whales to me. That being said. I got to here one of my all time favorites: "Immortality". I nearly melted when it started. Then, of course, "Breath". Another all time favorite. It was all just so perfect. Had some great, considerate fellow 10c'rs beside me. Wouldn't have changed a thing. I can't wait until next time.

Oops. You caught my typo (since edited). Far from the front row, but I would have taken that

. Honestly, I felt that I was lucky just to be there. I know that some people were shut out or simply couldn't make it. Thankful to have won in the lottery.

dottles · August 2016

Well, it's hard to explain how these shows made me feel.
I travelled from the UK to Boston, I met friends, I explored a brilliant city, I saw my favourite band play in a special venue and I cried.
You can look at setlists, you can watch on periscope to give you a sense but you have to be in that place, sharing that experience to know how good the show was.
