The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
Stopping in the middle of your gig so the guitarist can whip out a ham-fisted cover of a Van Halen instrumental is something you'd expect from a suburban high school band circa 1985, but this is Pearl Jam (a very successful band with a deep catalogue) in front of many thousands of people.

Can anyone make it make sense?
i fucking HATE eruption. imagine dropping a song to do that shize instead. the only reason i can think of is to give ed a break on the vox. but if he wants to do that - give us a stone song, yaknow?

I'm guessing it's because he was gassed from SOLAT and needed a breather. But yeah, I'd rather an improv or something.

Not when it’s a prelude to Black. No, no one can make it make sense.

Night 2 > Night 1, for sure. Only two repeats and two songs from this century! They seemed to get into their stride much more quickly tonight. I always forget how much I enjoy SOLAT live, it always delivers. Garden was a surprise too and the crowd was really into it.
Really enjoyable few days. Marr and the Stereophonics were also excellent.

I can't really argue with that objectively, but I would say night 1 is better if you went in 2010.

Is that now the 3rd time in almost consecutive shows 7 O'Clock is scrapped? It's the one new song I really really want to see live. Better play it in Amsterdam you bastards!
