    Heres my UOs
    Backspacer sucks so bad it could be a Nickleback album
    Its been far too long since their last album
    I wish for no more ballpark shows
    I'd prefer a support band and PJ playing 2-2.5 hours over a 3 hour show loaded with covers
    ... and let Jeff sing ;->

    Using any of the following phrases is really really lame:
    1. Uncle Neil (you aren’t in the band and he isn’t your uncle.)
    2. Jamily 
    3. It doesn’t get “Eddie Vedder” than this. (No, no and no.)

    I mentioned setlist recently have been good but the 2013 tour truly had some gems

    About the Fenway shows this yr at least, again, could've gone on earlier or had an opener for 30-40 min. I miss opening acts, it exposed me to bands which led to being exposed to other bands. My logic being if a band is opening for PJ they're probably alright.

    good grief this was hard to read....
    There is some absolute craziness in this thread. 
    My favorite posts are the ones with 20 items in a bulleted list. It hasn't occurred to them yet that maybe they don't actually like this band.
    Not very good logic. A list of posts doesn’t equal not liking the band. It just means your line of thought about those particular things goes against what most people agree on.
    If I must expound, it's when the 20 things are all negative about an album, songs, setlist construction, etc. Also, it was throwaway pithy snark.
    Yeah, I get what you're saying. It does seem like a few posts turn from a list of "unpopular opinions" to a list of "complaints."

    Very few posters are worth $100, and none are worth  more than $200.
