mfc172 is the youtube God of Pearl Jam

oh ya, we saw Tie Domi outside the stadium as we were going in... he's really short

if this stage setup remains for the rest of the tour, i'm digging the lowering/raising lights and sculpture. Seems they made it with an acoustic sit down run of songs in mind... or being able to do it whenever they want

It flaps it's wings during GTF.

Random/trivial question, what song did the band come out to?

Looks like a great set to me. Looking forward to Wrigley.

that's a good question... i'm drawing a blank... maybe there wasn't one?? if there was, i don't think it was anything i recognized

Is there an 8-bit version of this?

Man, I have been digging all of the vids I have seen from this show. I have been anxiously waiting (like many) for Pearl Jam to "return to form" so to speak since 2005. I really hope this tour is it.

Local review from the London Free Press:

LONDON, Ont. - For one night, London was undisputed champion of the rock ’n’ roll world.
With U.S. superstars Pearl Jam and 9,700 intense, happy fans jamming Budweiser Gardens Tuesday night, there could not have been a better rock concert anywhere. How good was it? How strong an experience?
“Shall we continue?” frontman Eddie Vedder asked innocently well into the night. Somewhere on the way to Chicago, PJ may still be continuing. Here’s a little of what happened over almost three majestic hours.
An epic cover of band ally Neil Young’s Rockin’ in The Free World could have made a spectacular finale — as it did here in 2005. So could an overwhelming Alive, or a rapid-fire Evolution, or a crowd-choir version of Daughter. All could have been worthy ends to Pearl Jam’s London visit. Tuesday, there was even more.
The 30-song night closed with a quieter, but still intense, note and Indifference. Three classics more than 2½ hours into a show that will be remembered as the year’s best and should be a contender as the venue’s best ever.
That was one acoustic-styled, tender moment on a night when Vedder, guitarists Mike McCready and Stone Gossard, bassist Jeff Ament, drummer Matt Cameron also thundered with Even Flow and other hits.
And how about their sweet cover of J. Frank Wilson’s 1964 hit Last Kiss as the band turned to serenade hundreds of fans seated behind the stage. Not many bands can make that weeper and a Neil Young anthem work on the same night.
“You’ve been very good to us . . . thanks very much everybody,” Vedder said late in the night.
Before the first hour was up, the band had blitzed through its new single Mind Your Manners with such punkish fire, Vedder’s microphone malfunctioned for a moment or two. Massive singalongs marked the early going after the opener, Present Tense. The huge fan choir was encouraged by the charismatic Vedder and pretty much carried the third song, Elderly Women Behind the Counter in a Small Town.
The band arrived at Budweiser Gardens last Friday and could be heard rocking the empty venue on the weekend.
Tuesday’s show is one of just two for Pearl Jam this summer. Friday, the band plays Chicago’s Wrigley Field. In the fall, there are more North American dates.
There has been speculation Pearl Jam chose the Bud for its lone Canadian stop because the band had fond memories of its 2005 concert at the then-John Labatt Centre.
“I’ve heard that they liked the venue,” arena general manager Brian Ohl said Tuesday as the concert — much envied across North America — rocked on.
The frontman also had a greeting for the fans, using a bit of The Clash’s London Calling before the band switched into its hit Corduroy.
Tuesday’s concert started about 30 minutes late, as thousands of fans lined up outside and waited to get to their seats. Once the band hit the stage, it was non-stop electric uplift.

It's been a year already? I remember this being fun, I should give the boot a listen tonight...oh yeah, that

It was a great show. Better than Wrigley. "Alone" was the highlight for me.

"In Hiding" was it for me. Probably my favorite live version. It also marks what is probably the last time my low 10c number will get me right up in front the strange without being crushed by a bunch of neckbeards and that one redhead chick that is always there.

I usually prefer strange in the rear

Thanks iphone
