    1) which show was better for you?
    2) have you seen the Pitt setlist and would you prefer it?

    I'm scared to look at the setlist for Philly 1 cuz it's the only one I'm not attending that's nearby. I also hate seeing the set right before and right after my show. I don't know why but there's always a song that makes me angry that I didn't get it!

    Ed..the hype on the boards and the amount of discussion regarding these Bklyn shows are sky high. One if not both should be all time classics.

    Are you asking me to compare the Buffalo set with the Pitt one, Nick? It seems that these two shows will be a less-obvious "pair" in the same vein as the upcoming Boston, NYC, and Philly shows.

    In any event, Immortality and Go were definitely the decisive factors in me preferring the Buffalo set. Also, I got songs like Black, Better Man, Nothingman, and Daughter in each of my previous two shows so I was okay to not have them. Animal and untitled/MFC would have been nice (I did get them (well, not untitled) in Auckland 1998, however) as would have Of the Girl and Footsteps.

    I'll just have to keep attending more shows in the future to check more off my list.

    I was actually asking between the two shows you attended. Which show was better overall ? London or Buffalo? Also the PJ stat tracker app is amazing for keeping track. I'm glad u got immortality and go! Great songs.
  3. London and Buffalo were different experiences.

    I over-hyped the show and was wanting too much from the London show - namely more songs that they didn't play at the Toronto 1 show from 2011. I learned my lesson and did not go into last night's show with that mind set.

    I think the London show was a great intro for my brother-in-law who attended both of them with me. The London show had a great array of songs from their back catalog. Last night's Buffalo show only kind of had this but also had a pretty high number of new stuff which is great for the big time PJ fans. All I can say is that thank goodness I got to hear the album in advance as I would not have enjoyed the evening nearly as much. I can't stress enough (or maybe I have ), however, how big a deal hearing Immortality was for me.

    Don't agree so much about The Fixer, but if some band has to influence the other I'd say it would be Pearl Jam over TGA. TGA have covered Pearl Jam quite a few times, Brian Fallon has declared to be obsessed over some PJ songs, etc.


    except that it's a Mike' creation
    anyway sometimes he also put a Little Wing hint in it so ..
  5. Immortality
    i like the stable songs begin not to be so much hehe .. Even Flow theother night .. Better Man last night .. and where's The Fixer?

  6. Is YL Mike's? I though it was a Stone's song - my fault. The Hendrix sound is still there though
  7. count on me for one sure show Matt (thinking of Northern West) since i have a fresh download code
  8. I'll buy Gold Coast 2014
  10. ^Of course, I also haven't even considered the west coast half of the NA tour!

    This is going to get pricey! Ah, well. My kids already have enough toys.

  11. Nice! Hartford or Baltimore.....?? I suppose there is still PLENTY of time to decide.

    The first thing I did when I got home Saturday night (well, Sunday morning) was look up the Pittsburgh setlist.

    Yes, I'm a bit of a geek that way.
