[Strat]

Curious if the set lists will vary much.

[CopperTom]

I'm in the very last row. Still not that far away.

Just don’t be an asshole by standing up during the performance. Definitely don’t encourage others to stand up, either.

[Strat]

Huh?

Tonight! First solo show for me since 2009. If you told me Ed will form a band, record an album and tour before PJ announced rescheduled dates, I would have... well... I wouldn't have been all that surprised.

[Bammer]

Huh?

There’s a gif - I will find it and come back to post it.

[Bammer]

Strat, there’s more in the Pearl Jam “holy grail” thread if you’re interested. Also Ruddo made a gif but I don’t know where it is. Can’t believe you hadn’t seen this yet.

I just stumbled across this particular clip and if you look at the 2nd row exactly at the 14:30 mark, I made everyone stand up. Fuckers had all been sitting the whole time up to that point.

[CopperTom]

Glen: on 7:54. Off 8:25

[Strat]

Glen: on 7:54. Off 8:25

Geezes that’s quick. Though I suppose he has two hours ahead of him

Haha. I missed thst. That you? That’s incredible and shocking people were sitting down at that show. I know it was kind of fancy but ….was the jamily not allowed into that show ?

Concert crowds are fucking weird. I get sitting for Ed’s previous solo shows when it was just him but this is a full on rock show so …

I don’t remember the ticket sale situation (10 Club?). The first half of the show was McCready playing with the Seattle Symphony - everyone definitely seated for that.

I did not get tix initially. Found one on Craigslist from a guy whose +1 couldn’t make it. Paid $100 cash. Our seats were up in the balcony. I watched the symphony part from there. Noticed lots of empty seats right up front. So at intermission I just walked down there and grabbed a spot in row 2. I texted the guy up in the balcony to join me but he was too scared. Yeah everyone was sitting down. I couldn’t take it anymore. Clearly everyone was just waiting for someone to do it. So I did it.

A great many RMers think that was a bad move. Fuck those guys.

[Strat]

It was a good move and I support you. It’s a rock show.

I got yelled at for standing at a white stripes show once.

[Bammer]

What’s even worse was Counting Crows last summer everyone sat except for Mr. Jones and Rain King.

FUCK that. I stood the whole time.
