Thanks for the review JacketGirl!! sounded sooo great!!!
 :D ;D
I almost feel like i was actually there!!! i so can't wait till the next show!!!!!!

Oh man, yes they did and it was so so good! (I was calliing for this at NWU but didn't get it so I was elated to hear it last night!).

I swear I agree with blenderbay, I felt totally baptized. I felt such a swell of love for these guys when they took the stage. The set was searing, Jim sounded like an angel! I stood alone and danced my ass off and sang along --I snuck up closer for the Jacket set and most of the seats were empty. I am hear to tell you that they came dangeroulsy close to stealing the show. Patrick was on FIRE!

I went back to my seat a happy camper! My bro-in-law and sister saw them for the first time last night, and their impression was that this band was something to behold. Run Thru was their favorite, they were a bit speechless. My sister said Jim's voice gave her chills and they are both looking forward to seeing a Jacket show again!


I also heard the opening sounds on Run Thru sounded like a high pitch something or other. Also I thought Jim's dancing moves were a sight to see, I loved the little jiggy thing he was doing with his leg.

Pearl Jam was awesome too! I can't believe how good they are! It seems that they are in their Prime. Eddie never sounded better and Mike McCready's playing was nothing short of astounding. Highlights were Garden, Glorified G, 1/2 full, Worldwide Suicide, Once, gone, Footsteps and Do the Evolution...I'm sure I'm missing some but damn, they are impressive.

What a freakin GREAT show!


~~ OH did anyone see the AMAZING rainbow as you were walking into the venue?? It was like all was right with the world. The rainbow went right over the skyline, it was breathtaking!

Just a little moan, i read (more than a few times) that "everyone has an unobstructed view of the stage".  what they did not include in that wording was, "but please purchase your Hubble telescope, as it is not included in the ticket price!!!!!!.  Our tickets where directly center,  but "in the rafters" to use an english expression.  The only time i could find any of the mmj members was when the "white" stage lights came on.  the only compensation for this annoying turn of events, was the fact that the united sound system was awesome, so much so that even during mmj's set, what with people shuffling around, and yapping away, you could still hear every note crystal clear. ::)

... I had my minidisc rolling, but it seems to have F'ed up and lost the recording.  :'(  I'm gonna try to read it with another deck, but have low hopes.

It looks like I lucked out. I have a salvagable recording here. I lost a good bit of At Dawn, but the rest sounds pretty good.

 can anyone offer some assistance with processing and hosting?

Thanks
Jim
