roll call-pearl jam

Note: Sonick asked Eddie in the FAQ and he says PJ @ 8:30pm...

[freakoretardo]

Doesn't that mean that MMJ would be before 7:30 then?
 
   :eek:

[kosmo vinyl]

no the concert is listed as starting at 7:30pm, it just means that the change over will be done quickly...

does that mean they're playing 3 hours, instead of 2.5 hours??!

[kosmo vinyl]

 any forumites up for hitting a bar nearby beforehand? [/b]

AH! There were singles available on Ticketmaster? I wasted almost all of yesterday on craigslist! Oh well, see everyone there.

mmj 7.30-8
 
 good pairing with pearl jam. still not a huge fan of them, just not my taste, but their set was decent.
 
 pearl jam 8.30-11
 
 i really can't comment on show since its been 15 years since i saw them and am not very familiar with their stuff so don't know if set selection was good, but i will say they are a consummate group of musicians. just excellent muscianship. loving the new punk-ish sounding stuff. just borrowed latest cd from my friend.
 
 and i saw a few 930 staph there as well! including one, whose name i don't know, sitting two rows behind me in row I. we were row g section 100. saw thatguy too on the floor.
 
 my section was full of cigarette and pot smokers. i seriously think i had a contact high by 9 pm.  i thought smoking, at least smoking of cigarettes was not allowed there?

hi . . . i like to go to concerts and take shitty cell phone pictures.  what in the hell is the fucking fascination with cell phones.  people are addicted and realize that people hate you when you are on them.  i also love the girls who scream the entire show, in your ear.
 
 my friend just killed himself, and the first song out into encore made me cry.  thank you eddie for having one the best bands of my generation.
 
 who was on keys?

[lily1]

my condolences, walkonby.

Getting to hear Masters of War and Fucking Up were definite pluses...  
 
 the same people smoking in the arena were probably the same idiot who decided to light up in the metro station and continue to puff away even after the station master made an annoucement over the pa...

[lukiedookie89]

Masters of War was amazing.

[chancegardener]

Excellent concert ... but what was the deal with the no binoculars rule ?? Not like I was going to throw them at anyone.  Good thing I drove so I could put 'em back in the car.  In a way tonight's concert was very much like the way arena concerts used to be wayyyyy back in the 70s before video screens.  The band just has to get by on good music and good playing. And PJ delivered.  Anyone got a complete set-list ??

 Got my ticket at 7:55.  Three fan club folks recognized me from Camden on Saturday and offered me their extra.. floor section 3, Row J. ..about 10 rows back on Stone's side.    ..That's what the fans of this band are about.. funny how so many of the same faces in the front rows at these shows.  ..much thanks to those guys for the ticket!!!  
 
 Pearl Jam brought the rock.. Opening up with "Release" always does it for me, so my ..a-hem... 38th Pearl Jam show ..was a great one.  
 
 And although there were many highlights, I think the fact that when I was walking out I ran into Christie and Nicole, two girls I've seen at many a pop-punk or emo shows at 930 and other local venues.. walking out of the show at the same time I did, was pretty cool.  These girls were 4 years old when "Ten" came out.  They told me they really liked Pearl Jam and how their parents had PJ cd's that they listened to since they were kids.
 When I was like .."What are *you* guys doing here?" They said, "What do you mean? How can you not like Pearl Jam? They are a true, pure rock and roll band."
 
 I thought that was really cool coming from two 19 year olds who I know see alot of shows for their age.. but usually bands like Taking Back Sunday or Eisley or something like that...
 
 A diverse crowd with, yes, lots of 930 staph in attendance or working.  ...and Ian McKaye standing stage left for most of the whole night.
 
 ..doubt we'll see PJ playing a church for $5. anytime soon, though   :p
