I was worried about this when it started in Worcester. I really disliked this back in 2006. But this was short enough can it really be called a solo? It was just Matt noodling for a few seconds at the end of the jam.

bluestate wrote:Here's a few non-music-related observations from last night that I thought were interesting. I was near the front row on Stone's side of the stage. Just to the right of us, sitting in the front section of the stands, were Ed's wife and oldest daughter. At one point, when Ed pointed over there and said "my daughter is here tonight", everyone started looking and pointing at her. She must've immediately felt very uncomfortable from all the attention. It looked like she was trying to hide behind her mom and within minutes her mom walked her backstage and then returned to her seat. I thought that was really sad. I don't know why but I just kept thinking about that for the rest of the night and it made me sad. But... to cheer myself up, I would just take a gander at Ms. McCormick. She is pretty smokin' hot!

Right in front of Jill & Olivia, there were 5 or so dudes all dressed in black and at least one of them looked very recognizable. They were all playing air guitar and just singing at the top of their lungs to every song. It was awesome! Then I finally realized who the one guy was when he got up to go backstage. Antonio Bardem from No Country for Old Men. He had an old school PJ hat on for good measure. Dude is a serious PJ fanboi! And he's also an absolute beast of a man... Anyway, for the record, I was also paying close attention to what was happening on the stage as well :D

fair enough. It's certainly nothing like 06. So it was a fun few seconds and then back to the song

I actually didn't even really hear what he played, since the first few seconds I was thinking 'oh fuck, a drum solo' and then it was over.

I think they should have done Elderly Woman somewhere in here still because the crowd deserved it.

It was like ripping off a bandaid. Mildly unpleasant but over before you could complain

Here's a real close close-up of the Immortality solo. Why can't I post YouTubes the good way? I think I'm doing it right.

Full URL in the code. It was actually simpler when it was just the code, since the URL sometimes won't work if you've navigated to the site the wrong way.

Yeah, the old YouTube code was much better.

Ugly Overweight Woman behind the Railing from a Different City

I seem to recognize your face,
Ugly, familiar, yeah; I can't seem to escape it,
You stand in line, a GA hog, to fight your way
to the front rail, to stare all show, at me

all these concerts that, I play
I wish you'd lose, some weight
but donuts cake and bacon eat

put your phone away, phone away
put your phone away, phone away

I'm tired of smelling your stank breath,
your face is like, an ogre's ass, that's slowly braising
this show you won't recall, nor the set list order
it's hard when, you go to every show

please change by not coming, at all
or you could lose, some weight
perhaps that's what everyone wants to see

but i just want to scream, fuck off
my god you're so damn dull, never dreamed you'd return
but now here you are, and we're doing this again

put your phone away, away
put your phone away, phone away
put your phone away, phone away
put your phone away, away
put your phone away, phone away

That's kinda weak except that I think I know exactly who you are talking about. She is always there.

It sounded like they turned the volume up during certain parts of songs and it was just louder than usual all together...or was that just me or maybe being on the floor...did they lack spontaneity?
It felt like allot of it was choreographed so to speak like opening with Pendulum again and swinging on the light...something felt off to me but that very well could have been me and the frame of mind I was in due to circumstances outside of my control...It seemed like it should hav been up there with msg II 98/hartford 08/msg II 2010 but I felt old (I kinda am but not much older than 3 years ago) and I like this album. Just throwin this out there cuz I hav no one else to ask or tell this to who would care or know

I'm sure theres a little bit of choreography involved. If you looked at the swinging lanterns, Ed's was the only one with a little platform on it. So, if he does choose to swing on it during Porch, he's got a safe one to do it on. Still seemed a bit crazy to me.
