    #55 for me and had an absolute blast (as always). Had awesome people around us in the pit (except for that one cowgirl hat lady who literally filmed the entire show and herself using some gigantic folding screen phone / stone cold weirdo), but the rest of the crew was rocking out and dancing all night.  Helps being 4 people back for sure when it feels like you are in the show, vs. just watching and listening.  Highlights for me Immortality, LBC, Satan’s, Black and a truly uproarious GTF.  Baba and Indifference felt like a dream (thought we were getting momma son for a minute but now predicting Footsteps opener tonight!) Sure, some have been better than others, but  PJ + MSG = full soul fulfilling bliss every fucking time.

    I stand firm on the screen being absolutely useless. The visuals are meh at best, even the quality doesn’t seem great. It’s such a lesser feel in the room without them surrounded. 



    I 100% agree on this.  It has the early Apple iTunes vibes and is totally useless.  Plus it takes away a good 5-7k seats.
    The screens are awesome. Adds a lot to the show and visually great. Glad they added them.

    The beers being $23 was a talking point wtih my friends as well. Was $22 for a 20 oz Blue Point beer. A 24 oz can of miller lite was a deal at $20. Probably a win win for MSG. Get the same amount of money and keep the drunkeness to a minimum I guess.

    I think it’s smart that they’re trying to bring another element to get people engaged with the newer songs but I’ve seen Pearl Jam in an arena twice now in venues where there was no behind the stage seating and the energy just isn’t the same. Being in GA last night felt weird. Like I was at a small club and not an arena rock concert.

    The anticipation and buzz in the building for 2022 was light years ahead of last night. There was something different that night imo.  
    MSG 2022 is the reason MSG 2024 was my first ever concert with earplugs.  That shit was LOUD!!

    #18 for me, #1 for my best friend who I was lucky enough to bring. Very emotional show for us as his mom has been battling cancer and he opened up about her relapsing right before the show started. Hopefully this one was uplifting for him. I don't know how it couldn't have been. Great set! Only mood killer for me, weirdly, was OOMM. It was my FOURTH out of my mind, and I don't need it again.

    Epic Mike show, as many of them are. Noticed he was using some unique guitar/song combos. Wasn't using the '60 strat on EF. Was the white strat he was using lighter (easier to play above his head?) or was he planning on stabbing it into his amp? Also used that red sparkly tele on Porch when he normally is playing his Les Paul. Thought that was interesting. 

    Set list design was awesome. Really was able to pull the crowd into the new stuff with a HOT start w/ Better Man & Immortality, and sandwiching Dark Matter right between MYM & DTE really highlighted it as being able to hold up against some of their other "intense" staples. 

    Can't wait to do it again tonight!

    Am I the only one who got shut out of both MSG shows (not the 1st time that it has happened) that finds it interesting that so many of the commenters who went last night are going again tonight?  How does that work?  Thankfully I got Fenway but I just don't get it.

    Did you try to get tickets either on the forum here or ticketmaster? 

    With persistence there usually is a way.

    There are a bunch of singles on Stubhub right now for only ~$200. Which isn't bad considering FV was $175...

    I 100% agree on this.  It has the early Apple iTunes vibes and is totally useless.  Plus it takes away a good 5-7k seats.
    The screens are awesome. Adds a lot to the show and visually great. Glad they added them. 
    That’s your opinion. I think they’re absolutely useless

    A lot of the folks going both nights probably ponied up or were super diligent to get the second night. I know for sure it’s been a major hassle for me and don’t really feel bad reading posts like this because getting tix to both of these shows was like a full time job for a couple weeks.

    I've been to 32 shows and not once have I paid any attention or gained any energy from people behind the stage. Love the screens. I prefer when they put up images of the band because that puts people in the back rows right up front but I'm good with all of the production.

    I liked the screen.  But I wouldn’t want them to be a permanent fixture going forward.  Hopefully a one and done.  While the visuals were cool it was definitely weird to not see a crowd behind the band going crazy.
