  1. I could see Alpine released as a box set soon..somewhat similar to the Philly shows from Oct 2009.The Philly gigs were held back,then they were released on May 5th,2010 (I just checked my PJ order history)..so we will find out soon,as far as the Alpine gigs...

    The vault could open,as the European gigs are fast approaching..maybe another give away ?? I hope so....
  2. I have been listening to the 2005 Canadian Tour....I just love this tour....I attended the Montreal gig from this tour (09.15.05).....today I listened to St Johns N1,09.24.05....

    EV is in a great mood..very,very talkative..really like the main set..Cant Keep opens,Go,Even Flow,Animal,Corduroy,Given To Fly and Nothing As It Seems all follow....Lukin>You ...After Present Tense,Ed tells a quick "fish story" about Stone before Dont Gimmie No Lip...alot of laughs here..band sound great..some false starts,but IMO, that just adds to the fun and great feel of this show ...

    Encores..1st Encore starts with some nice acoustic tunes... Thumbing My Way,Iam Mine,Small Town..then Black and RVM..

    Encore 2.."Its saturday night..St Johns..lets rock this fucking place"..the band proceed to bang out Whipping,Do The Evolution and Spin The Black Circle....great,great must listen story after Last Kiss...Not 1,but 3 false starts before Leaving Here with EV laughing at himself...Alive,Baba and Yellow Led ends this fun,loose,very energetic gig...

    4 Stars

    A must listen IMO..this is not the best gig of this Canadian Tour,might have to give that to Ottawa,Toronto or Halifax ....but,its a favorite of mine.
  3. Great promotion of the tour, Ed.

    I'll get around to listening to it soon. There's so much - almost too much - for me to handle. I've only recently listened to the few shows played in my homeland from 2000, 2003, 2006, and 2009 - and that's only 10 shows in total. There's 16 (or is it 17) Canadian shows in 2005 alone!

    I'll have to focus on Ontario and then branch out from there.
  4. Yes...it was 16 shows Matt...all,IMO,are great..and different...I will mention highlights of each gig in the comming days I think...as Im listening to all the shows....not in order....I just pick one of the 16...when you get time...you HAVE to listen to these shows...just pace yourself...pick a gig..and only listen to that show for a couple of days..then move on to another gig...thats how I do it...
  5. I'll start with Toronto and move from there.

    AFTER I finish with Montreal 2000, Las Vegas 1993, and Seattle 1992 - and this Live on THREE Legs compilation.
  6. Last thoughts on St Johns N1 Matt...very solid version of Cant Keep opens...(a song you like alot)....mistakes all over Grievance...Even Flow and GTF don't have their usual intense feeling for some reason.....but NAIS is fantastic....and I like Lukin followed by You for a change up.....from Present Tense on is where this show shines IMO Matt....I love the acoustic start of Encore 1..followed by Black and RVM...

    Encore 2."We have played to 180,000 of you on this tour...mind you,that's 2 gigs for the Rolling Stones,but we like to get to know the people we are playing for".. classic..... this encore is fantastic,and I already went on and on about it yesterday..........

    A cold rainy day here in NYC,time for some hot tea and on to the Vancouver gig 09.02.05...similar weather,great music.
  7. Today I will be listening to the "Drop in the Park" show and, probably, Las Vegas 1993.

    A 2005 mix will happen - one day. I will likely include songs from the five US shows - that'll take care of the omission-of-Once issue. Like the 2003 mix, I vow to listen to all those shows first. I still "owe" that to the 2000 and 2006 shows.

    A tough loss for your NYR last night. That second Washington goal must have been gutting.
  8. Brutal loss..DZ hit the post..twice !!..the back to back penalties,for the Caps was a joke..late in the 3rd,tie game....2 bad calls against us ? really ?...they will pick it up...I can not attend Game 5,its my daughters 18th birthday....If there is a game 7 ?.May 12th....Im going to WPB..Mr Vedder was supposed to be in Ft Lauderdale !!!...

    Im still going with my wife....and I will also miss game 1, if we make it to the Con Finals....I would love to tell Eddie about that...lol
  9. What? Your soon-to-be-18-year-old daugther doesn't want to watch playoff hockey with you on her 18th?

    First Coldplay and now this?

    Forgot to mention that I listened to the 1992 Unplugged show in its entirity for the first time. Short but very sweet (not sugary sweet but cool sweet).

    I still have to pick up that Benaroya (I used to call it "Benroyal") Hall set from 2006. It's available on itunes but I want a physical copy. Maybe I'll get it through pj.com.
  10. Hahahaha...She's good with hockey,but no..that wasn't in her plans to go watch the Rangers that night...lol..we are going to shock her (and our other 3 kids) with a Disney Cruise...going June 2nd for 8 nights..Disney has boats from Manhattan now...but,I failed to notice,when I booked this many months ago...that early June is the start of the Stanley Cup finals...so get this Matt....if they go,I will be on a cruise in the Bahamas...lol..my ticket partner has been laughing at me for months...but,as we know,the playoffs in all sports is a crapshoot Matt....the "best" team almost never wins anymore..and if there is a game 7 this round,I will be in Florida...some lead singer,of some band, was supposed to be there that weekend..but cancelled on me...lol

    Benaroya Hall is a great acoustic gig..and is a MUST HAVE,no question..but its from Oct 2003 Matt,not 2006...

    I still don't see what that has to do with you not taking her to the Rangers game. Have the "news" flashed on the scoreboard!

    I can just see it:

    "Happy 18th Birthday! We're going to Disney!"

    You'll make local highlight reels (at least in the NYC-area) for sure!
