    I'm surprised they didn't opt to play two shows in one of the two places. Seems like much less hassle (at least in terms of stage set up) to play the same venue for a two-night stand as opposed to packing everything up and re-erecting it 28 miles away.

    Must have been a scheduling issue.
  2. WMA tonight! Wow!
  3. And Corduroy / Do The Evolution / MYM / Save You as the opener quartet. That is some energy to start with!
  4. 1. Corduroy
    2. Do the Evolution
    3. Mind Your Manners
    4. Save you
    5. Pilate
    6. Dissident
    7. WMA
    8. Even Flow
    9. Infaillible
    10. Daughter (Tag : It's OK)
    11. Sad
    12. Down
    13. Tremor Christ
    14. Wishlist
    15. Jeremy

    They're at it again. HOLY SHIT
  5. Nice way to start these two shows. Definitely looks like they don't need any warm up shows
  6. Spin the Black Circle (not usual so late in the set, right?), Black, Alive and Rockin' in the Free World to end. What an finishing quartet, almost as energetic as the starting one!

    Also, a set without Better Man... That ain't usual either, right?
  7. Better Man will often miss a show if it was played nearby (or at the same venue) the night before. Same goes for big songs like RVM, Given To Fly (not this time around, however), and Jeremy.
  8. Rival was on the setlist as well but scratched and replaced with Tremor Christ. It seems from people who were there that the beginning of encore 1 was a real drag. They need to fix that part of the show. They have some great acoustic songs but they rely on the same ones in those spots. Awesome to see WMA and Soldier of Love making an appearance..
  9. And how could I forget.....ITS OK!!!!!!

    Ooooh...I like RIval and it is very "due."

    The three-or-so-acoustic-songs-to-start-the-first-encore strategy is probably getting a bit stale - and yes, if they are going to keep doing it, bring out the big guns. Although it hasn't been officially advertised as such (or has it?) it's the 25th anniversary tour so might as well get nostalgic. Everyone in the crown wants to!
  11. Ok so I just got home from Miami....went to Key Biscane Beach this morning with the wife......wild show last night..crowd was bonkers .. GA was out of control and reminded me of those great South American fans..just wild..few guys from Brazil were behind me last night going wild..all good......at one point some dude jumped onstage ( I think during SOLAT) turned around and jumped back into the pit..he crowd surfed almost all the way to the back..lol

    Opening run was great..until Save You ...IMO its just brutal , why not ANIMAL there ???

    Pilate and Dissident were fantastic...WMA took me by surprise ..love it...

    Infallible came just as I had to pee...its a great bathroom/beer run song....what a dud tune , killed that great run and went down like an anchor at sea... ...Daughter is..well a classic... its always welcomed and went over huge....

    Personally I could do without Sad and Down...play Not For You and Last Exit there..but hey , its EV and he loves to play some odd rare tunes so whatever....

    2 guys up front had Tremor Christ written on their foreheads...lol..they were fucking nuts lol....Ed of course loved it , and in return they played a great version of said song.....awesome stuff....

    Jeremy SOLAT and RVM were the highlights of the main set..which I felt was rather uneven at times....

    Encore 1 bored me to tears at the start....no one knew Good Woman..at all..Just Breathe is another yawn and Sleeping is just fucking dreadful .. I knew we were in trouble once the ukulele came out lol

    Once that sleeper run was over , things turned around..in a huge way...Comfortably Numb was AMAZING..no other way to describe it....and was the highlight song for me...no question....Sirens was good..I enjoy it but not there..plus I got it the night before.... GTF and ONCE absolutely tore the roof off the building..the pit went ballistic during the chorus for GTF..haven't seen a reaction like that since my European PJ shows ages ago.....

    Encore 2 was brilliant..BLACK both nights ?? no problem..love it and its my fav PJ tune.......SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE !!!!.....during RITFW Ed had some dude up on stage in a wheelchair...not sure if he was an Army Vet or a guy Ed had mentioned earlier in the show that crowd surfed in his wheelchair back in the day....great moving moment no question..the band were speechless hugging him...

    I always say , any show with SOLAT and STBC is a show Ill take anytime..this was the case last night....

    The energy last night was better than Lauderdale....it was just crazy loud all night..great vibe.... 2 great shows.....staying over in such a great city as Miami was so worth it.....Miami by a nose over Lauderdale .

    Highlights: PILATE , Dissident , WMA , Tremor Christ , JEREMY , SOLAT Comfortably Numb ....GTF RITFW.....a few duds played yes...but really a great show to be at ...

    Off to Tampa in the morning !!!!!!!
  12. Encore 1 needs work. Tons of great songs they can play if they wanna slow things down.
