I only hope Pearl Jam actually sounded good on all these songs.


I was thinking of exactly the same while reading through the set list. Probably one of the top 5 (don't really know which are the other 4 but pretty sure there's something good out there, I have stopped tracking these things of late)

Bootleg is a must, got to give it a chance.

They're really playing up the whole "second to the last night is always the best show of the tour" thing, aren't they?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who's thinking about this. I've seen the final show of the leg 5 times, but never the second to last show. Milwaukee baby!

Unreal night, couldn't believe what they kept busting out. Never seen the band having so much fun.

WWS wasn't played, and Ed finished indifference without the poison/scream line which was a shame


So WWS was or wasn't played? I'm confused.

Disappointing to hear that Indifference was cut short, probably means Ed struggled for a good bit of the night. That's a shame.

That's a hell of a setlist. Would have been fun to see it in person.

It wasn't played. I think Ed was just drunk by that stage!

As a fan, I'd rather hear 2014 Pearl Jam attempt a fan-service set than 2010 Pearl Jam doing a greatest hits set. Not that either is bad, but it's really great to see they give such a treat to the hardcore fans in the crowd. Tremor Christ, Fatal, Of The Girl all in one set? Insanely cool. Personally I prefer shows more similar to the WOR1 set from last year, but there is something so cool about them doing a set like that and I am jealous of everyone who got to be there for this amazing night.

Wow, that is an impressive setlist. Let's see how it compares to the tour finale in a couple days.

While I'm not kidding about The Real Me, the rest of that setlist is awesome.

The Real Me is better than most of their usual covers - at least based on their initial performance at Rock Honors The Who.

RITFW, now that's a cover that got stale and that brings absolutely nothing to their current shows.

I've gotten the real me at three of my last four shows, and it sounded horrible every time.

I was there last night. It was unbelievable.

Never been a big fan of The Real Me, heard it back in Manchester in 2009 and wasn't impressed. I will say, however, that Ed absolutely nailed it last night. He really commits to the song and his vocals were really strong and on point.

In fact, his voice was great for the vast majority of the songs. All Or None was beautiful, as was Man Of The Hour. He sounded great on Fatal too.

Ghost was really badass, even though they barely ever play it. Ed said after that he fucked it up, but all he did was start singing "It doesn't hurt when I bleed..." too soon, but he stopped and then came in at the right point so it was perfectly fine.

Unbelievable night. Not just an amazing setlist, but the band was well up for it and the crowd absolutely responded in kind.
