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.
That kind of kills all discussion of individual pearl jam shows. Most people are not also going to be listening to some random 2003 show at the same time I do. If anybody listens to it in two months, they will never find the discussion on it.
If you guys want things organized having a megathread of a billion different shows is really not great organization since a discussion of one 2003 show is not the same as a discussion of another 2003 show.
So if somebody listens to a 2003 MSG show or something, are they expected then to scroll through 15 pages of the 2003 tour thread to see if anybody is discussing it?
To me its like if we removed the threads about faithful, brain of J, etc, and said you could only talk about these songs in the Yield thread

Your way over compartmentalizes the conversation. A lot of the observations you have about a specific show would be relevant to the conversation about the tour as a whole.

Also, your live tweeting as you listen to a bootleg should just go in the "which bootleg are you listening to?" thread. That's exactly what that thread is for.
Thats fine for that moment, but then if somebody comes back to listen to the same bootleg they'd never be able to discuss it and compare opinions. And then it will be buried by the next bootleg.

So consider that, Ruddo, when deciding where to move his posts.

You guys are burying your own discussions. Id love to see if anybody else was discussing this show beforehand but theres no real way to do it right now

Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

If someone comes back a year later and wants to talk about it, they just will. I don't think they are going to care what you thought about it a year ago. They'll talk about it, and if you want to discuss it with them and they are around, you'll join in. You don't show up at a party with your friends and say "hey, let's go back to what you guys were talking about an hour ago" do you?
