He lived with me and had to put up with me playing PJ a lot, eventually he caved in and started listening to them. And he thanked me after the show for getting him into the band. More notably, what he mentioned was that Pearl Jam are so passionate from the moment they hit the stage until they leave. There's no instance where they're just phoning it in, it's pure intensity for over two hours.
That's eight shows in Europe over, what a ride it's been.

It’s funny, I made a “wishlist” in 2016 just for fun and I ended up getting everything except Red Mosquito and You Are. However, both were on setlists but scratched. You Are was on philly 1 but scratched and RM was on both Fenway sets and both times skipped. I was very lucky to get some of my top songs multiple times that year. Release x3, Breath x3 , in my tree x2 in hiding x2.... man what a year that was! Plus finishing it with Temple of the Dog at msg was the cherry on top.

It's amazing what you get - even more amazing how you got Breath three times. My top five "wish list" before the tour started was Sometimes, In My Tree, Habit, Whipping & Breath, and I got them all in two shows - Berlin and Krakow. Very surprising.
