I dont know where to put this. Im just going to do it here. My thoughts start at the bottom of this page <_< http://forums.theskyiscrape.com/viewtop ... 3&start=20


I love Thin Air, this is an amazing setlist so far.

[mikejasond]

lol at the massive applause for Stone completely forgetting how to play the break to Thin Air.

These wide shots are so bizarre, who the heck designed these outfits?



Im at 15:36 right now

Seriously, Eddie looks perfectly normal and presentable for a concert, then Matt Cameron looks like Jim Halpert with his white button-down shirt and tie, McCready is the same but instead of a tie he's got his collar all open like he just got home from work, Stone and Duff look like they're about to paint their house, and then Boom looks like some guy they pulled off the street when the lights let you see him.

Thin Air sounded great though

[mikejasond]

Fatal! I do love the vibe of this show. 5 amazing songs in a row.

Maybe Matt Cameron needs to dress like he's about to go to work as an accountant as the only way to keep the tempos in check. He can't let himself feel too comfortable up there.

pearl jam sucks now

This is the best I've ever heard NAIS sound. I'm digging this and I don't really like this song much

[mikejasond]

Im at Around the Bend and Im LOVING this show.

A very different PJ from Unplugged, but also another really good PJ. Eddie still sounds good (Though not the same as 90s Eddie). Just solid and a nice mature different sound.

Still love Unplugged. But this is another great version of Eddie in a totally different way

[mikejasond]

Boom's key solo in Around the Bend was awful though

[mikejasond]

Wow at slow I Believe in Miracles.

[mikejasond]

Masters of War!

...and then Boom looks like some guy they pulled off the street when the lights let you see him.

Uh, that is exactly how he got into the band.

[bodysnatcher]

I feel like Boom is the Putin of the band. He's got something on Eddie so that he's too scared to get rid of him

[96583UP]

nah, Eddie needs him to in order to maintain numbers in case Stone attempts to re-assert his alpha role in the band

Boom

This is possibly my favourite version of NAIS ever. Best Off He Goes and a great Immortality too

[mikejasond]

This gets its own thread.

Absolutely a Top 5 Pearl Jam show that I've heard so far. Its incredible. SO SO SO SO good and Eddie's voice is just so amazing on it. So delicate the performances here. Its just amazing.

[mikejasond]

Early highlight...that Thumbing My way is so...BEAUTIFUL. but many songs have great versions here.
