    I saw two shows in Vancouver and that’s not enough.

    Almost 18 years ago I decided to get married and eventually have two kids. These three bleed me dry of all my money… money I could be using to see Pearl Jam in Las Vegas… Los Angeles… Seattle!!!

    I mean, they played Hail Hail last night and I wasn’t there… because I have kids!!

    (Is that a good complaint? 🤷‍♂️)
    Excellent complaint, that I share.  I have not seen PJ in any way, shape or form since.....2012?  Eddie vedder solo in FL was my last.  So yeah, I'm complaining that it's been such a long time.  Childcare, money, work, all contributed to this.
    Its good to be back!!

    No Gigaton songs in the set 2 nights in a row for the first time since the album came out. Has the Gigaton chapter closed for certain? 
    One can hope.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    You could do what I did and take the kids to see Pearl Jam! They'll make it not as fun in some ways, but perhaps more fun in others.

    This was on full display last night. A guy brought his young son and made him hold up a sign for a tambourine from the beginning of the set in the second row of the pit dead center. Ed saw it fairly early on and acknowledged it, and the kid stopped holding it up. Later, the dad started harassing the kid to hold the sign up, and the kid was annoyed, telling him "He saw it!" Ed ended up giving tambourines to everyone and their brother (including me, and I wasn't even looking for one!) but not this kid. Finally, at the end, the people around the kid pointed him out and Ed said, "Oh, you didn't get one?" and brought out another to give to him.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I offered my extra Van 2 ticket to both my kids and both declined (rather see SZA or 21 Savage). 

    One day they’ll both regret their decision.

    Holding up kids as props is the new flashing your breasts. Only worse because you are forcing your shit on someone else

    Agreed it needs to stop these little kids don't even know what's going on. It's all projection from the parent for a little bit of eye contact or a tambo for the parent to then" look after"

    Both nights in Vegas, I had kids next to me. Two young girls on Night 1, two young boys on Night 2. They seemed so out of place. They didn't sing, they didn't dance, they didn't raise their arms to the sky when everybody else was doing that. Any time I glanced at them, they just had blank looks on their faces. The girls' parents were seated elsewhere in the arena. I presume the same was true for the boys, but they were not very talkative. They spent the entire time between Deep Sea Diver and Pearl Jam with their heads buried in their phones watching an endless stream of videos.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I actually wouldn’t mind quiet people next to me versus drunks bumping into me while singing and dancing, unless I myself would be too drunk to notice.

    We need more screaming on the bootlegs. Nothing better than loud, obnoxious screaming in between songs.

    PJ should hire the Portland Screamer to be at all their shows. She could be the hype person.
    It's a hopeless situation...
