    I’m going to go enjoy tonight’s show but this use of the word “spoiled” is really off base IMO. A spoiled child is one that is given anything they want without boundaries. Pearl Jam is a business and we are their customers, paying for the privilege to be there. Every member of the band and every employee working for them benefits greatly from the fact that they have a devoted fan base that spends huge amounts of money on tickets, merchandise, and everything else they can come up with. And that’s to the band’s credit. What they have established is remarkable. But I can tell you this, they wouldn’t show up and play for free. Nor would any other act for that matter. And in my opinion, any paying customer is entitled to be satisfied, dissatisfied or anywhere in between.
    Entitled is probably a better word choice than spoiled.

    I personally like when a band/singer engages the audience instead of just rushing through the songs. Feels like they are actually interested in being there. 
      And, it always seems different, in good ways also... I don't know how they do it, so many times-  fun - & you never know what your gonna get- so the rush is awesome when it's something you wanted, or something you discovered you Love It Live!

    Don’t these people get it? This is the internet! It’s primary use is to complain about shit! People are expecting 3+ hour shows and PJ are coming up short! 
    Can you believe they have the balls to charge more for tickets and then perform less!?!
    Ive paid way less in previous years and gotten more songs! 
    We should probably get some data for each tour and figure out the cost per song of the average ticket and I’m certain this tour is the worst for the average 10 club member that has seen them more than 50 times. Even adjusting for inflation Im pretty sure PJ are screwing us over. 
    They used to be hard core but they sold out with these short shows. They didn’t even hire a real band to open for them, it’s just one of their touring members messing around on stage before the real act! 
    How about a class action lawsuit over charging us more for less songs, who’s with me!

    LOL
    You don’t even know how dumb you all sound about the length of the show. These guys are over 50. Show some love and understanding and appreciate what you are given. 
    Lol, agreed.

    Sure, but if they did that, this board would still be overrun with spoiled folks from the US complaining about how a show they didn't even go to was too short and not up to par. 
    It’s posts like this that reminds me there are much better places to hang than the forums. YOU are just as annoying as the complainers. Grow up. Everyone is entitled to their opinions.

    Watching a lot of videos from the first two shows and it seems like Stone doesn't even want to look towards the crowd. I would be disappointed if I was up front and he's hiding toward the back of the stage.

    When is it OK to complain? 17 songs?
    How about when they retire and you don’t get jack squat?  Maybe just appreciate the fact that they are still playing and that you get to be in the same building as them to experience what they are doing.  Some day it will be over.  Let’s just be thankful.

    Just because you love Even flow, alive, daughter, small town and better man every night means I’m the asshole cause I don’t want them every night. We all like different songs. It doesn’t make you entitled.

    People can be disappointed. Why is that weird? I didn’t go to either show and don’t care either way. I just find it annoying that people have such a problem when people are bummed out about the song selection or length.

    Dunno. Better ask someone who doesn't like Better Man.

    I “only” have tickets to Toronto and Nashville; so I wasn’t there last night. 

    2020 sucked. 
    2021 blowed. 

    Can’t wait for the greatest band in the world to rock the fuck out for 22-23 songs in Toronto and Nashville. With some “newer” songs that are legit and still fun to turn up 2+ years later. And however many radio hits they happen to put on the list. Beers will be cold, tears will be flowing, and feet sore from jumping up and down. 

    Love you all.

    Overall a great show. 

    OTG to kick off felt special. Faithfull, Present Tense and SOLAT!  Awesome. 

    Was hoping for less Ten cuts than I saw they did in SD, and thought all 4 they played were really great.

    I kept staying Mike “is already in mid season form”. 

    I thought Ed generally sounded good, but on a couple of songs (live Never Destination) he seemed almost a bit winded in trying to keep up with the lyrics). 

    Loved Superblood and Who Ever Said from new album. Dances and Quick Escape also good.   Before the show I kept saying “No Buckle Up!!!!” but I clearly jinxed myself.

    All in all, I’m feeling so grateful to be able to see PJ live again and hear some of the new tunes!

    Not sure where this is coming from. Never said a thing about song selection. Of course we all like different songs. If you feel attacked by my comment, you should probably read it again. I never said anything about any of those songs nor about your right to have personal favorites.
