    People in the chat "this man has a lovely voice" 

    haha. Love the new generation waiting for "old lady" beyonce and not knowing who Eddie is.
    Just enjoy it for what it is Ed’s voice is not the same but his spirit is still the same ...

    Chills with Long Road. 

    The comments section as usual was straight garbage.

    Guns N Roses played South America just a few days ago... I wonder if they tried locking them down for an apperance.

    Isn't Chris Martins set coming up? Maybe Eddie will pop in there?

    Got chills during Long Road also and haven’t enjoyed a version of Bettermnan more than that new one!

    That was pretty good. The choir tunes def made it. Wish he had played more than 4 tunes though. People complaining bout Ed’s voice should realize that it takes a couple tunes to get your voice warmed up. That’s why his “misses” are usually at the start of the show (songs like Blood and Habit being exceptions for the wear n tear factor). Hoping he comes out as a guest spot before this thing is over. 
    And yeah, the lives comments are/were ridiculous. I turned the show on during the Ed Sheeran set for my daughter and had to turn the comments off 5 sec later because they were moronic.

    Ya know I was listening to Porch and thinking how good Eddie’s voice sounded. Up there with only a guitar. 
    Pretty amazing if you ask me. 
    All of it was beautiful.

    Porch solo is was just ok imo. It is a cool song if you know Pearl Jam and like the different factor but for a show like this I feel like it is not best suited. That said his 3 shows in Italy I really loved that tune by himself. Pretty raw and lots of emotion.

    I feel in 2018 it's a song for people who's in PJ/EV mode. Especially the Eddie-solo version.

    Not for an arena of people waiting for Beyonce. 

    Surprised he didn't play an Into the Wild song.

    I was there and the sound was quite good for his set, his voice really came through strong for a notorious difficult stadium.  Unfortunately 90-95% of people there doesn't know Pearl Jam or Eddie.  The people around me was respectful enough to remain quiet for me to really enjoy it.  Was there from 11:30 and waited just for Eddie...and it was worth it!!
