    Back home, rested, and with some coffee. Loving these fanviews! Figured I'd share.

    I started a SHN opener prediction thread, assuming/hoping it would be The Long Road. Seemed to be a fitting choice, after the last couple of years. And yet, I couldn't help but smile when DotC came on. This was the band being defiant of not only our shared fear & hopelessness, but of what is expected of them.

    The term "festival set" gets tossed around often, but this was hardly that. Here's 3 songs from our new album. We've been itching to play them, we hope you like how they translate on stage, and even if you're a sour-puss about it, you got to see them first. The bonus? They freakin' ROCKED. Eddie once said how sometimes this band can be like surfing on waves: starting slow, rising up, and accelerating (and hold on). DotC set the tempo. "Save your predictions! Burn your assumptions!"

    And then we start the ride with Quick Escape. PJ never forgot where they came from, and who helped pave the way. QE is like trekking to Kashmir by way of Neil Young's handcart on a rusty train track. And if you say that you didn't love that one-two punch, you will. Eventually.

    The band threw ANOTHER curve ball by going right into Seven O'Clock. I thought it was the strongest of the 3, but we're comparing prime cuts here. I do think it's gonna be a great 1st set closer. I definitely has an epic feel to it. Might as well have the closing credits of the human race playing in the background.

    I joked once or twice that the band should just play all of Gigaton & get it out of the way, before Eddie says "Good Evening. We've been meaning to get that out of our system. It's good to see you." Then launch into Corduroy, or Small Town. Which is pretty much what happened. It's almost as if the band opened for themselves.

    Corduroy (along with Even Flow & Given to Fly) sounded as close to the album as I've heard in years, as far as speed goes, yet still having those live PJ flourishes we all love. Haven't heard E Flow like this since the Ten Philly show, or older. And GTE went all the way back to '98. The whole band was on fire, but Mike in particular was on God-level. The secret weapon, unleashed once more.

    Present Tense making an early appearance was also symbolic of the band to enjoy "right now". For everything we've been though, they remind us to enjoy this moment, and every moment afterward.

    Never Destination was fantastic! I'm so glad the band was confident enough to sprinkle in at least 6 songs from Gigaton. They know who was there. The wildly fluctuating ticket prices, the effort it takes to even GET to Asbury Park if you don't live there... this was a mix-tape of new & old, designed to (at the very least) whet our collective whistle.

    I'd like to thank Eddie, the band, and the crew for being aware & cautious during Wishlist. They don't need to explain why, and we don't need to question them. If you are TRULY a fan of this band, if they ever stop a song out of concern, or refuse to play 'til some idiots calm down, we have to respect that. If you don't, I'll gladly buy all your merch for cheap. Go enjoy Kid Rock, or some claptrap.

    Didn't know Eddie & Norm Macdonald were buds, but I can see it. I've always loved Norm. And Charlie Watts WAS The Rolling Stones. Loved the Waiting on a Friend tag. Superblood Wolfmoon brought the wave back, and had people dancing. It took time to grow on me when the album came out, but now I love it.

    Red Mosquito had more blues than ever. Add Jack White, and people might've passed out. Personally, I thought Danny ripped here. Harder than he did on that last version he guested on. Dude was on fire all night (Ocean Ave. Stomp! more on that in another post... be glad you went, if you did!)

    I forgot to mention it earlier, but Daughter also felt very much like it came from the '94 tour. Speed was just right, whole band was on point. I've never gotten W.M.A. by itself live, but if this is as close as I ever get, I'm satisfied. Damning, that it's still so relevant today.

    Take the Long Way was unexpected! It came out great, I would just work on the ending. I think that was around the time they called an audible on Retrograde, and fast-forwarded to Small Town. Totally fine. It's been 3 years guys. You're allowed to be loose. We all knew Small Town was happening, and we're all glad it did.

    Don't get me wrong, I love DTE. Here's the church, we sing in a choir. But I'm glad it was left for another day. That might've been the catalyst for it actually becoming a festival set, for me. SOLAT was a nice surprise. They've been playing it for 30 years, but it still sounds as raw as it ever did.

    Some would argue "Hey, Better Man is way poppier & mainstream!" but I don't need to defend how electric a crowd becomes with it. People Have the Power put it over the top. Patti must've been smiling from behind the stage.

    I LOVE the modern intro to Porch, but it was nice to see Ed just go INTO it. I don't know if it was for time, or just to keep the energy going, but Porch is ALWAYS a crowd pleaser, new & old. There was a middle tonight, and in there you found a love for this band, and feeling like things were almost back to normal for a little while.

    I know everyone was hoping/praying/wishing for Bruce to pop up for My City of Ruins, but he didn't need to. His specter was everywhere, even if he was just down the road having a beer. Or a shot of tequila. Shout out to those amazing singers, who won't be local for long! And if they are, New Jersey & the tri-state area will be all the richer.

    Kinda bummed we didn't get River Cross, but I get it: timing. Besides, gotta get people to Ohana, right? I have a feeling all of Gigaton will be represented by the time the Encore shows are through.

    If you didn't want to hear Alive by this point, I don't know what to tell you. The song is a part of Americana now. Appreciate it. Celebrate it. Love it. After that, it was only gonna go one of two ways: Baba, or Rockin'. Wisely, the latter prevailed. Because what they were doing all night, was also what they were asking of us to do:

    keep on Rockin' in the Free World.

    Agree 100% with the bolded about Alive.  Alive still gets me ever time. It's life affirming to me.  To get to sing 'i'm still alive' with good friends and family around. Doesn't get any better than that to me.  Yea it's corny, but I still love the emotion of singing it.   I just wish they would put it more in the front of the set list sometimes.

Doesn't get any better than that to me.  Yea it's corny, but I still love the emotion of singing it.   I just wish they would put it more in the front of the set list sometimes.
    Aint' nothin' corny about that :fistbump:

    I saw a handful of Mike's picks sail by as the wind blew them just out of reach :-(

    I was caught completely off guard and they sailed right by me as well. One of them even ricocheted off me but I was unable to get it. Gutted!

    I LOVE the modern intro to Porch, but it was nice to see Ed just go INTO it. I don't know if it was for time, or just to keep the energy going, but Porch is ALWAYS a crowd pleaser, new & old. There was a middle tonight, and in there you found a love for this band, and feeling like things were almost back to normal for a little while.

    I know everyone was hoping/praying/wishing for Bruce to pop up for My City of Ruins, but he didn't need to. His specter was everywhere, even if he was just down the road having a beer. Or a shot of tequila. Shout out to those amazing singers, who won't be local for long! And if they are, New Jersey & the tri-state area will be all the richer.

    Kinda bummed we didn't get River Cross, but I get it: timing. Besides, gotta get people to Ohana, right? I have a feeling all of Gigaton will be represented by the time the Encore shows are through.

    If you didn't want to hear Alive by this point, I don't know what to tell you. The song is a part of Americana now. Appreciate it. Celebrate it. Love it. After that, it was only gonna go one of two ways: Baba, or Rockin'. Wisely, the latter prevailed. Because what they were doing all night, was also what they were asking of us to do:

    keep on Rockin' in the Free World.

    5/5

    I was just going to write all that!😉 Beautiful review. I loved every minute of the concert (including DOTC opener). Glad they did it their way!
