    The vibe was immaculate, overall. The only changes I would make in retrospect:

    - Oceans as opener into Garden
    - scratch Wreckage & play Got to Give
    - Untitled into MFC
    - Upper Hand after Won't Tell
    - Tr*mp can go to hell, but that whole rant could've been 30 seconds. Valuable song time!
    - didn't need to single out STBC/Animal nerd with the sign. More valuable song time.
    - Smile after Gremmie
    - scratch RITFW, and do Ledbetter or Fuckin' Up


    A tight 24 in 2 hrs. But whatevs. WE got Gremmie🤙🏄‍♀️🌊

    Agree x 2

    Was irritated by the attention seeking kid with drumming sign. He sucked too much time out of 2 shows. 
    Alanis was force to be reckoned with!
    And what can I say about Stone and Gremmie...

    Ed rant, which I agree with 100%, was much too long this time.. cost us a song for sure. 
    I can’t add much to this. I think Ed lost his way a bit during the rant about the grift/er. 

    Seeing Stone dancing was the best!

    I'm heading home to sleep now. Thirteen shows this year! 😅

    Wonder if this was the same dude from Philly 2.  Was a few rows in front of us and held that sign up wayyyyyyy too much.  I was screaming at him to put it down but he didn't much care.  
    Playing drums on Animal topped anyone standing behind him who would not be able to see the stage for big patches of time.

    Yah 1 thru 14 pretty fucking good
    wreckage only repeat? Didn’t get that
    The ed talk at the end was really bad was almost seven minutes just killed the crowd then they just jumped straight into rvm so hard to get going again but ok we got going 

    and then got Taylor and glen for good songs but totally again killed the vibe in the sense that we wanted Pearl Jam 

    gremmie was cool but man  could have been so much more to end main set and encores I mean  literally 30 minutes from end of betterman to start of gremmie

    I never really mind Eddie talking because I think it adds to a sho, for better or worse. I didn't think it took too much away last night but I did keep looking at my watch thinking, we could be playing more songs! But even my non-PJ fan wife said she liked the second night better.

    That said, they only really scratched one song with the option for another and only played one less than N1. I didn't need YLB again and Setting Sun may be my least favorite on Dark Matter. Obviously my own tastes, so ending it with the festival party of RITFW is ok by me.

    I liked the encore. And getting Gremmie, as odd ball as it is, is just cool. Especially since it will likely not happen again and Stone was awesome.

    I also got a first time in Big Wave, that Black was spectacular and maybe the best I've seen (I said it to my wife right away) and it was my first time with no Even Flow so I have zero 100 percent songs now in 24 shows. I've hoped it would happen but never really thought it would and it kind of made my night!

    My biggest complaint is probably no Oceans, especially if they were going to open with Garden. it's funny I was at OKC when they opened with Garden for the first time in like 30 years and now I've had Garden as my opener three times.

    Overall the day was great. Third Ohana and it just hasn't disappointed yet. So it goes a bit beyond PJ anyway. Alanis was pretty fantastic and I loved the Breeders. They were so fun and even sweet.

    Just a great event as always and I'm sad to leave and despite some valid complaints here, it was still a pretty great PJ show and hey, we got to see them play live another time.

    Thought they were gonna play ”I’m the Ocean” there for a moment before playing Gremmie. With the ”theme” and all. 

    Hehe.

    My first time seeing them in the US and obviously came just for them, but it’s completely true that the event was so much more than Pearl Jam. Had such a fun time, a really unique experience.

    Really fun show and festival overall. Alanis was fantastic, and Idles / The Breeders were great fun too. Kim Gordon was very bass heavy. Many other fun performances throughout Sunday and the other two days as well.

    Loved hearing Off He Goes, MFC and I Got ID. Black was really strong as well. When Ed started talking about the sand people I thought for sure we were getting Marker In The Sand. Gremmie was a fun treat. My wife and I were speculating walking in that it may be on the list, so that was fun.

    Major props to Alanis also, what a force of nature. Her voice is absolutely full throttle all these years later, and she owns the stage.  Also one of her guitarists looked like 1980’s era David Crosby, and the other guitarist was a dead ringer for Ed Helms.  Really interesting. 
    She was really impressive

    BTW, last night Ed played an acoustic guitar on Off He Goes. That is the first time I've ever seen him play acoustic on a song with the band. Can anyone remember another? 

    Also, he still had his tele on during Black, probably because he had it from I Got Shit. He played it towards the end, giving a slight additional layer of sound.

    Bummed I didn't stick around for Sunday after seeing the setlist.  Big Wave is all I'm missing from Avocado.  Gremmie looked cool but if I had to pick I'm happier to have seen Whale Song.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    The tambo begging has gotten so out of hand. Eddie seems to love it rewarding them every time at my shows.
