    Any chance you might sell me a copy of a few of those? I'd love to have them as a keepsake from a very special night.

    GREAT show and GREAT pics and videos from all of you.......I had seats in 104, 8 rows up off the floor (Stone's side). Not many PJ fans at first, but some converts afterwards.

    I pretty much received what I expected, a short set but filled with what I wanted to hear....PJ songs! It was quite a treat to get Bee Girl and Bush....

    I do have two disappointments to relay.......

    1. I was SSSOOOOO bummed that the singalong didn't go off well during Present Tense, as I was hoping they'd play it just to do that. I have know idea what happened, but Ed tried to let us, but then took over.....

    2. There was alot of people in my section just standing around during PJ, except for the guy in the row in front of me. It was us two who were jamming and dancing, until two guys showed up and it was their seats. Unfortunately, these two did not even lift a toe, not even a head nod, during PJ OR TP! It's so much better going to shows where the people are into it around you.....but it still was amazing and a blast (after 8 beers and some jaeger, pretty much anything is)

    any chance there is someone who saw it ironic "Jeremy" was played in Denver, I mean with Colombine and all? I actually saw the school THAT day and found it odd but didn't talk to any Denver natives for fear I might run into a student who was in the school that day. Anyone have an opinion?

    it may be that you haven't seen Petty all that much...I am not a petty fan but do head out to see the band whenever they are near...just the fact that they are legends and play great music, Tom is owed our respect, him and the Heartbreakers have paid their dues. Anyway, their set tonight was smokin...never seen Petty rock like that, normally it's a rocker with some low key sprinkled in to even things out ....not tonight, I thought Tom set it off. Also nice to hear "hey those PJ guys are a pretty good band, who would have guessed it." From some older Petty fans while I was taking a leak

    Want to know your opinion on them playing Jeremy in Denver with Colombine in the area. Thought it was a little odd. Tell me what you think. you're local...I want to know what you all think.

    Jeremy is not about Columbine. Yes, it is similar. If they played Rival, I would have found it more odd. I do not think that Jeremy is anything close to a "celebration" of death, suicide, school shootings or anything of the sort. I think we need to remember to put everything into its context. Pearl Jam is clearly not a band that thinks, "Isn't Columbine awesome?" Where no offense is intended, none should be taken. So for me, it was simply great to get to hear Jeremy again after so long.

    I know it's not ABOUT Colombine but the story its based on is similar. I just was wondering how people in Denver saw it and if the similarities had any effect on people there. I'm glad you enjoyed seeing it. I thought it was odd yet funny to hear Brain of J. in Dallas '98. "Who's got the brain of JFK..." Especially since we were less than a mile away from the sight were our darkest moment happend. Thanks for the insight.
