Fantastic energy, and I also thought the sound quality was very good for an arena. Really dug the seated, low-key start with Nothingman/Buckle Up/Black, and then kicking it up with Present Tense. Spin the Black and Immortality also killer. And fun to say Hi and Thanks to The Rob.

A lot of posts saying the acoustics were great. I didn't have the same experience in Section 114 (stage right). A lot of guitar parts I couldn't hear at all. Anyone else notice something like this in that area of seats?
Also, why did Ed put on a Bears football jersey? Did someone in the crowd throw it to him?

I was in 114 and thought it was great. I’m sure some guitar parts were drowned out but I enjoyed how high in the mix Jeff was.
I also enjoyed how high in the mix Jeff was. I certainly hope this will be reflected in the bootleg.
I forgot to mention the great security people at the venue. We were a few feet from the rail on Stone’s side. Part of the way through the encore, my wife started getting hot and a little dizzy. She moved off to the side by the barrier on the side so she could get a little air and lean on the barrier. The security people saw her and checked on her to make sure she was ok and gave her some water. It was truly appreciated.
Anyone see the drama in section 114 with the beautiful blonde that was with other Pearl Jam guests (saw their passes). For some reason she ran down the steps and pulled some other woman out to the concourse area. The other big wigs with her left to help and they came back but then she had another episode and the PJ guests all looked very annoyed. Just really curious if anyone knew the deets. Felt like she had to be a celebrity or something looked like a manger was consoling her as well.
I was in 114 (row HH), but didn't see this. May have happened behind me? But i was sober, so not like I wouldn't remember it, LOL..
Anyway -great show. Great times. Can't wait to use my fanclub code on this boot!!
"I'm only civil because I don't know any swear words."
Loved every minute of this show!! It was special to me just to be able to be there when earlier this year I didn’t know if I could go. I’m in the middle of radiation and my ticket buddy, my Mom, had a major surgery at the end of last year. But we made it!!!! We had GA and were the closest we’ve ever been (Stone’s side). I ended up clinging to the railing for the second half of the show because I was exhausted but I was thrilled to be there it didn’t matter. When the first few notes of Alive came on I started to get sad but the crowd vibes pulled me right out of that. What a night!
Highlights for me were Whoever Said (love this and even more live!), the crowd and Courdery, Smile, and Black early in the set list. The crowd energy was fantastic! Cant wait for Denver my home show. Have seats this time and will probably need to use them, but that’s ok because I’m so grateful to be going!! Nashville you rock.

@withflyingcolors Love hearing that you and your mom made the show despite the challenges, and in GA at the rail no less! 🙌🙌 Enjoy your Denver show- is your mom also your ticket buddy?

I'm embarrassed to admit that this was my first Pearl Jam show, but it was well worth the wait. We bought tickets for the original scheduled date in 2020 and COVID kick that in the balls. Nevertheless, It finally happened and didn't disappoint. Like may PJ fans, I am a poster fanatic and definitely wanted to get one for this show.
As with all the other shows they sold merch the day of the show beforehand to relive the stress of trying to get your swag moments before the start of the show. Sounds great in theory, but a nightmare in reality. The pop-up merch tent was suppose to open at 1pm. We showed up around 10:30am and were astonished the line was nearly 3/4 the way around the building. Oh well, I wasn't about to waste an entire days standing in line for a poster, no matter how much I wanted it.
So we went about our day in Nashville which was much more enjoyable then standing in the heat all day. My wife joined a Facebook group specifically for this PJ show which was super informative. We could see updates on the fans in line in real time and things weren't going as planed. The tent opened late and moved painfully slow for most accounts.
The gate were scheduled to open at 6pm and we showed up about 10 minutes before only to discover a insanely long line. We had read that there were going to be express line for those that didn't have any bags or poster tubes to check prior to entering but all we could see was one big line. That was until we just settled in at the end of the massive line, I noticed a door with a metal detector and an staff worker, but no one in line. I quickly made my way to the door and asked the staffer is this a express entry. She looked at the time which was 5:59 pm and said, "For assigned tickets only". I whipped out my phone to show that I had seats and just like that, they granted me entrance. I motioned to my wife to hurry this way! Before she could get to me a swarm of people broke away from their line to the express line. Once we got in we were escorted to an elevator along with one other couple that could not thank me enough from saving them from the long hot line.
Once we reached our floor, the doors opened to an empty concourse. I swear we were the first ones in the place. And wouldn't you know it, right next to the elevator was a merch table with a stack of concert posters! The Rock Gods blessed me that day for sure.
Oh yeah, and it goes with out says that Pearl Jam killed it! They played both my favorite song, "Wishlist" and my wife's "Black". One of the best concert experiences I have ever witnessed. PJ Forever!

wow...awesome
Reminds me of being in a merch line at Wrigley several years ago....we watched the posters sell out when we were about 20 people back but stuck it out and right before it was our turn they replenished the posters.
