    I was blown away by the crowd reaction to Who Ever Said. Just amazing. Great show for my first show back. Got Inside Job, and I'm Open! Just one more to finish No Code! (Around the Bend, so that's not happening.) 
    Oceans completed Ten for me tonight. Finally!!!
    Nice!

    Fantastic setlist on paper. Seems like their pace was crazy fast...did it feel that way in the room? They were 18 songs in by 10:30. I would have loved this show, but I don't think my wife who loved Ottawa would have as much. Always curious about the process of setlist building Ed goes through. This one obviously had some thought out into it. Can't wait to hear the boot!

    This is how you do shorter sets. 25 is the sweet spot

    Almost a perfect setlist. Thanks PJ.  Such a good time!  

    Highlights are..
    Oceans as the opener
    Yellow Moon
    Retrograde to close the acoustic set and to open electric
    Whoever Said
    Red Mosquito
    I'm Open
    Superblood Wolfmoon
    Inside Job
    Once

    Best set I've seen in a while. Please hope Toronto follows this path!

    Downsides are:
    Given to fly
    Corduroy
    Black
    Porch
    Alive

    Those songs are average at best. A few would be okay with me but all 5 is a bit too much for me. Might as well play small town

    Off to Toronto. Hoping the killer setlists Thursday!!!
    Those songs aren’t average at best or downsides. What are you even talking about?  Complain much?

    Ironically, I agree with you as if any of those songs came on Pandora/Spotify, I would skip as I am tired of hearing them but without those songs launching them into stardom in the 90's, they would be playing Gator Mike's Family Fun Park instead of selling out arenas.  I saw Everclear at Gator Mike's last year and they killed Santa Monica.  Though Everlear is just basically Art now so that may be another reason he's playing arcades.

    I loved watching this one unfold last night....still makes me wonder why previous setlists were so standard.

    This is a must have boot for sure

    Great show, great crowd, great setlist, great venue - it was loud, but the acoustics were perfect, and unlike the Ottawa show it didn't sound as though Stone's guitar was out of tune the entire night. "Yellow Moon" was the highlight for me. The Lightning Bolt songs always hit me hard, and that tour came at a really important time in my life; I never thought I'd hear it live again, and I was delighted.

    Odd, random person PJ/Hamilton stat: I've seen them there twice, I've heard "Sad" twice, I've never heard "Even Flow."

    On to the next one!

    How's the feeling in the arena with the slow starts?  I've mostly enjoyed PJ rockin...and I really have loved the shows that blister early.  I'm sure I will love any PJ concert, but the slow start (likely for Eddie's voice) could be a bit of a buzzkill right off the bat.  Arena's getting into it?

    I agree. I’m in the minority when it comes to LB. I enjoy most of the record. I’d love to see them open the encore with pendulum!

    Yellow Moon and Let the Records Play are the two off LB that I haven't seen live yet. Would love to hear YM....that plus I'm Open/Sad made this a stellar set

    Amazing show. I did this one solo and wish my wife made this one! They surprised me so often here. When I thought they were going one way and they went another so many times.

    All of the Gigaton songs were highlights for me.  First time hearing Retrograde and it rocked especially the last half. Whoever Said and Quick Escape continue to be the songs to hear off the new album. They easily fit into every set this tour and actually make them better. SBWM has not been seen in awhile and I think is great live. Definitely a step below the other 3 for me but still a good rocker. 

    They continued with the slow start. This crowd was itching for something faster you could tell but did these songs great justice especially Nothingman. 

    Red Mosquito and I Am Mine should really be played more. Such amazing songs. I love I’m Open as an intro leading into another song. I thought we were getting MFC right after but they finally pulled off Sad which is always a treat. I think I was the most excited for that one in the front. Sorry neighbours! 

    I was surprised again during the encore. They have been the most predictable part of the show but they really delivered last night. Inside Job is such a beast of a song live. Once and State of Love and Trust coming out too instead of just jumping into Alive after Wishlist (of all the songs they skip and they keep playing this one is really the only head scratcher for me) was awesome. I really loved the first set but mixing up and adding a couple of songs to the encore really elevates this show to a more well rounded and complete show imo. I am not sure 25 songs is sustainable for them but it did feel like it was much longer than QC for example even with just 3 more songs added. 

    Anyone complaining about the staples they play every show really do not get the majority of the fanbase at these shows. It’s not you that’s for sure. You have to keep all of the fans happy and juggling rarities with the hits is what this band does an amazing job of. Listen to the pop that these songs get. Now replace them with something that will get an equal response. You can’t. Lights on halfway through Alive for example. Show me something else that fits here for that response. Sure Rearviewmirror or Blood can fit into the set closer to change out Porch but for whatever reason they have chosen to not play these songs anymore. 

    Onto Toronto now meeting my concert buddy and wife again. See everyone there!

    Wow.  Just wow.  I was on mike’s side in the GA pit.  Mike was on fire.   The variety of songs from the catalog was superb.  
    Great mix of pearl jam songs.  Thank you for not playing covers. 
    Too many highlights to mention. Main thing was band was solid.   They sounded really good.

    Depends on the crowd and song choices. Oceans and Nothingman got a great response.
    Yellowmoon and Man of the Hour were very quiet as you would expect but Retrograde got people bouncing again. With no more classic first encore it seems the band is either listening to fans that miss that spot in the show or they are just doing it to warm up Eddie’s voice. I live the sit down start but get it also with those that want a faster song right out of the gate. Once Given to Fly hit the crowd was ready.

    That is wild!

    I also love hearing reviews that discuss the sound and how all of that was so thank you.

    Finally saw Red Mosquito..... I have been waiting for that one for sooooooo long.

    If you heard someone losing their mind as it started, that was me. LoL

    Anyone else a bit concerned when they saw Stone hit the stage with a mask?  he seemed to be pretty distant for most of the show and at the end of the first encore fans were reaching out and asking for picks and stuff and he just politely backtracked. This tour has been so volatile over the last two years, makes you wonder if there is another potential C-19 case.  I dunno.
