Pearl Jam

[johnnYYac]

I've never seen Pearl Jam and was stoked to see them coming to a venue only an hour drive from Iowa City.  However, I'm scheduled for major surgery in Sept. with a two month recovery and the PJ show in Moline, IL is early Oct., so I had to pass.  One of these days...

[logan5ive]

I'm looking for 2 tickets for the Moline show.  Anybody?

The setlists for their Euro tour, especially their last two shows in England, were nuts!  I'm happy with Memphis, but their shows are so different each night that I'd love to find a way to see them twice in the fall.

i was very jealous of the Leeds show

01. Pendulum
02. Of The Girl
03. Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
04. Breakerfall
05. Hail Hail
06. Once
07. MInd Your Manners
(Ed jokingly starts to read his introduction/translation from Werchter and then says "Oh right" and tears it up and talks about being happy to be back.  He then introduces the next song.)
08. Lightning Bolt
09. Tremor Christ
10. Wishlist

(Ed spots a phone in the crowd that has a scrolling message on it.  Ed asks to see the phone.  It gets passed up to him.  He seems disappointed when he learns it is a message and not the lyrics.  He thanks the person for the phone and sets it down behind him.  A basketball gets on stage and gets passed back to Matt.  Ed says, "We are getting all kinds of gifts up here.  I like that t-shirt you got there buddy.  And that blouse would look pretty good on my wife.  In fact that blouse would look pretty good on Mike McCready."  Ed asks Mike if he ever got naked in Leeds.  Mike seems to think it was mostly just Germany where he got naked, maybe England somewhere...definitely Dublin.)

11. Who You Are
12. Ghost

(Ed says, "I fucked that song up.  I went into the last verse too early, so I am going to take a picture of me fucking up."  He has the camera that was handed to him earlier and starts to take a "selfie".  Jeff admits that he also fucked up so Ed tells him to get in the picture.  Once the photo is taken Ed says, "Thanks, my daughter is gonna love that one." and sets the phone down behind him again.)

13. Even Flow (Ed throws his mic into the audience.  a guy sings the "him away" bit)
14. Sirens
15. Push Me, Pull Me
16. Do The Evolution
17. Don't Gimme No Lip
(Ed pleads for "less war, maybe we can't get rid of all war but how about less war"  He goes on to say that we all want the freedom to live and dream but the sad fact is war is big business.  The next song is about someone on the wrong side of that business.)
18. Army Reserve
19. Present Tense
(The audience chants for Jeff to sing.  Ed suggests "Fernando" by ABBA because once he starts the audience will take over.  Ed then begins to dramatically sing "Fernando" while Jeff laughs and shakes his head no.  The audience does indeed take over and sing.)
20. Given To Fly
21. Setting Forth
22. Rearviewmirror

Encore Break 1

(Ed discusses how cancer effects everyone and what a difficult fight it is for the person with cancer and for their families.  He talks about his cousin John who recently succumb to cancer.  Ed's Chicago Bears #34 shirt is the same shirt he wore when John passed away.  Ed goes on to say that a young man named Jonathan lost "unfair" fight with cancer and wants to play the next song for him)

23. Man Of The Hour
24. All Or None
25. Fatal (a request by a woman attending her 30th show.  Ed hopes the audience won't  mind and promises the three minutes to play it won't be deducted from the overall time the band plays tonight)
26. The Real Me-(Townshend)
27. Porch

Encore Break 2

(Ed thanks long time crew member George Webb who "works for the band every single day.  If he wasn't around we would be fucked."  He also has Karen, band photographer, Ten Club, and Neil, Matt's drum tech, come onstage because they both had a birthday the day before.  The audience sings "Happy Birthday" to them.)

That's an incredible setlist! I've been getting more and more jealous every day checking what songs were played.

Well, I finally saw a pair of proper Pearl Jam shows, and they were incredible. The setlist at St Louis last night was great. Anyone else go to any of the shows yet?

Not yet but soon.  I had a question for you, but the PM couldn't go thru because your mailbox was full.  I'll try sending again tomorrow.

I'd love to see Imagine live some day.

[Fully]

I just saw them last night at ACL fest. Imagine turned into a sing along that came in right behind Hey June with Paul McCartney at Bonnaroo last year. For a festival set,  it was not bad at all.

The setlist is pretty killer for a festival set. It's nice that they're big enough that they can do and play whatever they want, even headlining a major festival.

[MOWJO8185]

Saw them in St. Louis. Was my first Pearl Jam show. Just a killer show.

i was in st louis, it was fantastic. my 5th PJ show.  those guys sure do give you your money's worth. wore me the f out.

highlights for me were imagine, not for you, crown of thorns, jeremy, and the who fan in me can never get enough baba o'riley.

i'm assuming they still "bootleg" all their shows, any of you know when one might expect to see these shows up for sale?  weeks? months?

They're doing the official bootlegs again.  They're usually available several weeks after the tour ends.

[slappymoe]

thank you! hopefully in time for christmas, makes for easy shopping.

[dmooney99]

great set lists so far.  They always put on an awesome show.  Wish they came back to the east coast though 

[dmooney99]

They are playing No Code in it's entirety tonight  in Moline, IL

Insane!!  I was shocked reading the setlist.  I thought it was a prank for a minute.  My favorite album.  What a great surprise.  I just wish I was there for that.  Too bad they didn't bust out No Code in Memphis, which was the only PJ show for me this year.
