Mean-spirited me agrees, but most of me thinks it's pretty horseshit if the band is aware, and honestly, I don't know how they couldn't be. They're obviously not obligated to take requests, but from his posts, he seems like a nice guy who selflessly does things for other fans. From now on, he should just go and not say a word.

If i were him I'd start requesting all the songs I don't want to hear at the shows in going to. That way the band will play them at shows he isn't attending

Or tell them that his run of shows is ending one show earlier than it really is.

As if the band did this on purpose. Ed was probably made aware of it sometime before/during the Brazil tour and didn't get reminded again until after they left Brazil. After the song he said, "that was for the Greek, with our apologies". That doesn't make it any less hilarious though
Besides, the guy will now probably get to go backstage or write a setlist the next show he attends.

Mean-spirited? Fuck that. This is pretty funny. Pearl jam should do more shit like this.
