    I still think these shows are pretty long.  So far they just are featuring many of their lengthier songs.  And I think there will be more wrinkles thrown in as they get their reps in and maybe find some new ways to integrate Josh.  Mid and late tour PJ is different than early tour PJ.  If they stick with 22-25 songs over 2.5 hrs that still sounds great to me.  And love the preset return and even playing tunes w/ Josh during his set. Always fun to see how each night unfolds!

    I guess if there are only going to be 22 songs, at least their are some heavy hitters in there. Better than San Diego, IMO.

    I believe San Diego was discovered by the Germans in 1904. San Diego is German for whales vagina. 

    Stay Classy. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    Much more diverse set then SD. Happy to get a new song on the belt notch with of the girl. 

    Good show. Medium energy from the crowd. My section was sitting most of the show.  People all around left everytime a new song came on for more beers.

    Had fun though. Was good to be back in arena I guess.. thats what everyone wanted.

    I'll take a sloppy 3 hour 20 minute show that is uniquely PJ at stadium with 5 covers and 36 tracks 10/10 times over arena shows with 22 songs and there no chance of the show even making the top 400 PJ shows.

    Agreed. I’ll take longer shows any day. However, I believe (hope) the reason that this show and the San Diego show were shorter than normal is because both arenas have an 11:00 -11:30 curfew….I’m going to the Vegas show that has no curfew, so hoping for a longer / normal set. 
    Since 2006 PJ has regularly paid the fine and played past curfew. 

    No one can argue with the math. 22 is a lot less than 33. That is a whole different thing. The show feels short. At Alive when I realized it was about over, I was sorta stunned.

    People laughed at me when I said to expect shorter sets on this tour.

    I was at both shows. The energy in LA was better than San Diego in my opinion, which was surprising. Probably had more to do with the flow of the setlist, which I thought was incredible. I was also around some really great fans, which makes a huge difference. I loved the mix of songs. This was almost perfect in my opinion. Present Tense. Faithfull. Black. Of the Girl. I mean, come on. Yellow Ledbetter was definitely a true impromptu encore. Probably the cleanest or least added-to Mike solo for YL I’ve ever seen, which itself was special. 

    I can understand why someone who was not at these shows might look at the amount of songs and express disappointment, but take my word for it: if you had been at this show, you would not have been disappointed by the experience.

    I’ve been to plenty of shows, and I’d take this over some of the 28-30 song shows I’ve been at where it felt less energetic and special. These are sort of intangibles that you just have to experience. My advice to those of you who are waiting for your shows and have “concerns”: don’t. You will have a great time when the time comes. Be faithful about that. Can’t wait to see how tonight will be special.

    I think what people have to keep in mind, when it comes to the length of the setlists thus far, for this tour, is that they have an opener on this tour that takes up time, which impacts the ability for pearl jam to play more songs. Alot of the previous , more recent Pearl Jam shows have been a "night with pearl jam", and no opener. And yes, there have been times when they have broken curfew, but it's not a regular occurrence. Just be grateful this tour is happening at all , because two years ago, or even a year ago........ fans would have been happy with just a ten song set!! "Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense"!!

    This set list looked amazing! Of the Girl and Faithful! Getting excited for Las Vegas, and readjusting my expectations to the lower number of songs. I remember absolutely loving Atlanta ‘00, ‘03, and ‘12 and those were all 23-24 songs. So glad the band is playing/touring and can’t wait to see them!

    Yah we always knew at some point 3 hour sets every night would become tough for them to do, but at the same time those 3 hour sets were amazing, so obviously not easy to let go.

    When I saw them in Vancouver in '13 mudhoney opened, and then they played for almost 3 and a half hours.  Went to something like 12:30 when the curfew in Vancouver is 11.   Always wondered what the fine was on that one :)

    Was it SOLAT that they had to drag out so Ed could change his wet shirt? It was fun to see them look at each other and improvise. Should be great in the bootleg.

    Saw the setlist online and was taken aback at its length. I don't post here ever anymore but just came to see what people think.
    It's sad to see it, but hey man, we all get older and it's bound to happen at some point. Bummer.
    That being said, be happy all members are alive and touring. Enjoy the shows everyone. With the prices of everything in the world, the time between shows from city to city and these shorter sets, I doubt I will ever fly to see them again. Times change. 

    I've STILL never seen Of The Girl!!!

    Set list looks good but it's short even with an opening band. This is Pearl Jam not an upcoming or middle of the road band. They're known for mixing up their sets and length of their shows, that's why most people like them because they're not like every other band that plays 20 songs then calls it a night. Maybe it's simply because they're getting older which is understandable. I'm happy they're playing, out on tour but seems like every major band is on tour as well or going to be soon so this narrative of just be grateful they're touring seems odd to me. They're an all-time band that tours less and less as the years go on, if they toured more, shorter sets makes sense but they're not, figured sets would be at least 25-28 songs, to each their own I guess. Might be because they were in SD & LA with a lot of family and friends with plans to do other stuff so simply not enough time to do what they normally do but these shorter sets are the same length as festival sets. If having an opener is impacting the length of their shows, I guess the question you have to ask yourself is, would you rather have an opener with a shorter PJ set or no opener with a longer PJ set? Personally, I'm going to a PJ show to see PJ so a longer show, without covers is preferred.
