Dude, it's still good music and the show is flowing nicely. I'm sure your friend would have enjoyed it.

Yeah, I've brought friends to PJ shows who only knew "the hits" and they've come away pretty much enjoying everything they heard

Well yeah but most people dont want to go to a concert to see three hours of songs they dont know. It is hard to become a fan of a song in the live setting with the distorted sound.

And chud, maybe you did, but did they ever get a show like this one?

Fun fact: Some people can enjoy music even when they don't know the words to sing along.

I dont think in an arena with distorted sound in the live setting is a good way to be introduced to a song.

to be fair, pearl jam's live sound leaves much to be desired

If you are going to a Pearl Jam concert to be introduced to a song, you're doing it wrong

What kind of an asshole would listen to like 10% of a band's catalog, go to see them live based on that, and be disappointed they didn't play exclusively that 10%?

Id say it is, it only has like 8 really recognizable songs so far (Even Flow, Porch, Small Town, Corduroy, Why Go, Once, Betterman, Love and Trust maybe)

I never got around to posting about the NYC shows. I really enjoyed them. I hadn't seen Sting since the Hounds of Winter tour in 96. I love Sting. Anyway, had my family in NYC, and my favorite part of the trip was how nearly everything made me think of the Beastie Boys. God, I wish MCA was still alive!

Not exclusively. The balance at MSG was awesome. At this show PJ is barely touching a lot of their biggest songs.
