Interesting take. Why?
Mike is all cheap theatrics: throwing picks, finger pointing, playing the guitar behind his head, etc.

His side also attracts the most annoying fans.

Stone, meanwhile, is stoic; solid; grooving in his own space. He's quietly the most important member of the band.

His side is the connoisseur's choice.

From my seats, I'll get Stone and the back of Boom's head.

From GA, I'll get Mike's theatrics, Jeff, Josh, and I'll get to see how happy Boom is to have won the life lottery.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

That’s a fair list of admittedly cheap theatrics. He’s also wildly entertaining. In Vancouver he walked right off the stage. I’d argue that it’s really Jeff’s side of the stage, though. He’s the most important member of the band, in my opinion. I love Jeff so much.

i think 80% of my shows have been Stone side

being Stone side meant I didnt have that first hand view of mike throughout

really enjoy his energy and then obv when it’s solo time you’re right there

yeah - Mike's side is just superior. And if you're on the rail right in front of the little set of stairs he uses to walk down to or toward the audience, you're likely getting some sort of physical contact. I got to strum his red tele last yr in Balt (w pick in hand actually) as he held it out for us. Unforgettable moment. I love stone and all, but you're getting very little interaction most of the time. Sure, ed comes over, as does mike and Jeff at times but, not the same. I guess if you like looking at Boom's hair.....

I prefer Stone's side, only because it gives you a better angle to see the goofy faces he makes when playing tasty licks.

I think we'll get some Gigaton tomorrow night.

Since they were last in Raleigh, they've released Lost Dogs, Avocado, Backspacer, Lightning Bolt, Gigaton, and Dark Matter.

We got at least a little of everything else last night.

Future Days
Parachutes
Dance of the Clairvoyants
Fatal

I also want All or None and Nothing As It Seems

Matt makes some nice ones too. They’ve both been fun to watch this tour.

If Pearl Jam is going to post things for sale while we're literally watching them play, the least they could do is play the shit they're selling.
