2005 was indeed a good year for PJ performances. I have enjoyed listening to these shows (currently listening to "Black" from Winnipeg). Lots of great tunes from all the albums released to that point. Hate to say it, I feel that most (not all) songs from "Avocado" waters down the set.
My only two complaints:
1. Never any "It's Okay" tags at the end of the performances of "Daughter." I have to admit, I have become a bit obsessed with those versions - and surprised how few times it had been played.
2. A lot of the lesser known songs from Ten were omitted from the tour.- "Garden," "Why Go'" or "Deep" weren't played at all.
“We’re really excited about getting back to Philly, these dates just kind of came up about a week ago it got presented to us and everybody said yes let’s do it. So we’re real excited about doing it, it’s kind of thrilling to play the same weekend as Jay-Z I’ve got to admit I’m pretty excited about that as well.”
"Its kind of thrilling to play the same weekend as Jay Z"....Really ? Why ? I guess Stone didnt see the clip of Jay Z "singing" with U2 on Bloody Sunday in Berlin...his "Yeah yeah...aight" really added so much...."aight"..wow..hes so talented...
Why does everyone in the music industry, kiss his and his wifes ass so much ? Everyone except Noel of course..lol
I dont think too many PJ fans are thrilled about this..I know Im not going to Philly..and that speaks volumes...its only 90 miles from Manhattan......and this is from someone who gets on planes to see his bands....
the 10c mail says this .. In addition to Pearl Jam, this 2-day music festival will include performances from fellow artists like Jay-Z, Passion Pit, Dirty Projectors, D’Angelo and much more.

As they date approaches, however, you may be going through PJ withdrawl, decide at the last minute to jump in your car and get to Philly just in time to see them.
