    27-29 songs is perfect to me. PJ’s second encores in recent tours have become too predictable. 28 songs in Tulsa in 2014 was awesome because they made up for the length by jamming a little more than I’ve seen them in the past. The 3+ hour show in Hampton in 2016 is an exception for me because both encores that night were unique. 
    That Hampton show is so underrated. Overshadowed by the NC cancellation.  In my tree / Breath back to back floored me!!

    Hampton was the highlight of the tour when I listen to the boots. Amazing daughter with an awesome tag too.

    One of my fav shows ever qualifies as a greatest hits show.  What matters is how they played those hits

    I just listened to this boot earlier in the week. Man, it really was an incredible show! I really wish it hadn’t been a low point in my life at the time because I simply could not get my mind off things long enough to enjoy it while I was in the Coliseum.
    I’ve always been reluctant to listen to the boot because I didn’t want it to trigger my emotions from the time and bring up all those shitty feelings again. But I finally got around to it and so glad I did! The only things I really remembered from the show were opening with Why Go, thinking they were gonna play Yield after we got Brain of J/Faithfull, and “Clarence! You’re lettin me down, man!” Listening to the boot made me realize how much I was in the room, but just wasn’t there. It’s like I finally got to experience the show a little over 2 years later. So good!!

    Yeah, it’s a shame all I can remember about the Hampton show is how bummed everyone was about Raleigh.  Setlist was good but it’s in my bottom 2 of shows I’ve seen due to the vibe that night.  Glad others found more enjoyment in it though.

    There was definitely an air of disappointment in the room regarding Raleigh being canceled. I wasn’t doing well for personal reasons, though.

    Billy must have had to jet off early to do the Alex Jones show.

    Yet billy ran his mouth about Pearl Jam in a negative way. Basically says he doesn’t get why they are big.

    Yes, I remember he was mad Ed put out a song about the Cubs and they were playing Wrigley Field.  My guess is there was/is some jealousy involved since he is a big Cubs fan.  He also ragged on Soundgarden for reuniting and called it a cash grab (It wasn't, and he is doing the exact same thing now).  He has also called PJ social justice warriors (is that an insult?) and has been a guest on Alex Jones' show multiple times prescribing to some way out theories.  

    Regardless, I hope PJ keeps the longer shows going...especially for Seattle.
