I purchased the premier parking. The reason why it took me so long to get in is because I was directed the wrong way TWICE. Now I know where to go so that won’t happen again.  I left as soon as Rocking started and was out of the lot and on my way home in no time.

For anyone who's a WWE fan, Edge was rocking out with us in the 202 section last night.  

What a setlist...I do think the energy at Sunday's show was a bit better, but this setlist blew me away.  Finally got Untitled/MFC, heard Inside Job for the second time, third Oceans.  Eddie was loving it.  

I said it after Sunday, but if the band can bring more energy with shorter sets, then I'm all for them.

Yup I’m one of those setlist snobs 

But god damn.

For todays standards this as good as your going to get to see the greatest band in the world play.

After hearing wash oceans and hard to imagine in the first 4 songs played I could of left right there and been happy. 

Untitled into MFC! 

The encore was LITTT

i told my bro after SOLAT “ damn looks like we’re not getting breath tonight. “ 

Thank you to Richie and Dermit for requesting it.

out of the 50+ shows I’ve attended the only other time I can recall them playing SOLAT and Breath back to back was MSG2 98.

if anyone knows the last time they done it please mention it.

only complaint is that spot when they played Retrograde. It just didn’t flow with what songs were being played before it and after it. 

As for the crowd, it’s really hard to capture the energy when it’s outdoors. All I know is I rocked the fuck out.

Thanks PJ for making it in epic night, especially considering that I was out of the country and missed my first Pearl Jam show at the garden in 24 years.

As for Camden, this isn't early 2000 when they were playing there for the first time, yet traffic/access seems to be a surprise every time... if you look at a map there is clearly a river on one side of the venue, one bridge within a mile with two exits that feed directly into traffic lights and downtown Camden, one highway with only 2 exits that even remotely feed into the Waterfront, and almost no way to get close/quickly to the venue once traffic builds... if you park in a lot close to the venue, after the show you are likely 1) trapped in the lot, and 2) stuck in a LONG line of traffic to get back to the bridge or highway... the farther you park from the venue, the better you are set up for getting out... other than my first show there, I have parked on the street, about 5-6 blocks way (4th and Federal last night, $5.50 for the meter), never had a car break-in or problem, and always got in and out in 5-10 minutes.

It wasn't the getting out that was a problem, at least for me, It was the getting in. There was no direction from anyone as to where the remaining open lots were located. Thanks for the street tip. For those coming in late there were not many options. I did see some street spots but they were marked "resident only until 10pm."

Do they still have a ferry going to Philadelphia from the venue? I remember years ago taking it but having to leave in the middle of the final song to make the boat.
