Leg 2 getting close. I like checking the Euro setlist relays during work day.
Here’s hoping they play the full schedule.

Yeah there's no way they get through the Euro leg without missing some dates. I think if they had the benefit of hindsight (and having struggled with the NA 1 tour) they would probably have spread the dates out a bit more to give themselves more recovery time and provide a bit more contingency in the event there are more covid cases.

Did Frankfurt have a super strict curfew or some kind of like union rule making the show so short?

It's a venue in a city, so yes I imagine there will have been a curfew.

Werchter is an open festival terrain in the middle of nowhere, they were scheduled to play 11pm to 1am (which was brutal going to work today... :| )

As of July 3, I’d say on paper Frankfurt followed closely by Zurich are the two sets I’d most enjoy. The show with Krusen (Fresno?)is the one I wish I had been at. I think there are maybe 20-21 more shows left this year. Anyone think any one in particular might be special for some reason? NYC on 9/11 feels obvious. I think the back-to-back Amsterdam shows should be good - would be nice to see most of Gigaton played then like at Ohana. Most importantly, will Comes Then Goes debut this year?

I just can't adjust to those shortlists, especially because what seems to really get shafted are the encores. The only thing left in them is the most obvious songs you see at every show, and don't get me wrong I always want to hear Better Man and Alive, but I usually like to have a couple unexpected ones before you get to that run....It's also kind of sad because IMO one of the absolute coolest things about Pearl Jam is that every album they play is fair game and you never know what you're gonna get. It really feels like you could hear any song from any time on any given night. I never want them to stop playing the hits (every show could be somebody's first) but I wish they were still mixing in more variety amongst them. Not to mention the shorter setlists mean you get to hear way less gigaton songs that they otherwise would probably be playing more often and a tour without much from the new album feels so wrong...

I’d like to see Alive as part of the main set again and out of the encore. It was nice to see Black in the middle of things last night.

Checking out a few tour clips on YouTube -- they're tuning down a lot more of the songs than they have in the past. :/

It reminds me of seeing Tom Petty in 2010. I had seen him in 2001 and it was one of those spectacular shows where it seemed like anything was happening, and then this 2010 show was straight hits with a intermission of songs from the new album - nearly apologetic about it. To compare:

Saratoga, NY 7/7/2001:

Running Down a Dream, I Won’t Back Down, Breakdown, Billy the Kid, Mary Jane’s Last Dance, Here Comes My Girl, Even the Losers, It’s Good to Be King, You Don’t Know How It Feels, Green Onions, Don’t Come Around Here No More, Stop Breakin’ Down Blues, The Best of Everything, Time to Move On, A Face in the Crowd, Refugee, Too Much Ain’t Enough, You Wreck Me

Encore: Free Fallin’, Rainy Day Women #12&35, American Girl

Madison Square Garden 7/28/10

Listen to Her Heart, You Don’t Know How It Feels, I Won’t Back Down, Free Fallin’, Oh Well, Mary Jane’s Last Dance, Honey Bee, Breakdown, Jefferson Jericho Blues, Good Enough, Running Man’s Bible, First Flash of Freedom, I Should Have Known It, Learning to Fly, Don’t Come Around Here No More, Refugee

Encore: Running Down A Dream, American Girl

21 vs. 18 songs doesn’t seem like a huge difference, but the 21 songs were more like 2.5 hours and really just pushed hard and the 18 were more like banging out the hits, the obligatory new songs (which might have been the best part of the show even though the crowd was half empty taking a collective piss), and it was 2 hours nearly on the nose with barely an interest in what they were playing. I sure hope this isn’t the case with Pearl Jam - while short the band seemed very engaged and invested in the 2021 show at Sea.Hear.Now, but a now long string of shows limiting the sets can seem concerning. I am betting it is in response to both feeling good about the show lengths from the 2021 festival shows and fear of burning out or putting too much on the band in the way that this played out for at least one contemporary band (granted that band had a much more intensive tour itinerary).
