    I hope your right! I get so excited just thinking about 2 nights at MSG!!


  3. As we know,PJ love playing at MSG.I just wish they would play more nights.Ill say this,there is so much demand here,in the Metropolitan area,we got the "extra gig" in Newark,NJ,05.18.10.A very solid gig,that I attended of course.It flew way under the radar,with the MSG shows looming.The crowd was a bit "quiet" though.EV mentions this,saying "Its a little quiet,but I understand,its alright."

    They played some rare tunes that night.Opening with Of The Girl,Brain of J,Alone,Immortality,In Hiding,Brother,Glorified G,Leatherman,Lukin>Once,Footsteps,Inside Job,Go,Jersey Girl,Whipping,You Are,Indifference and closing with Watchtower.

    Maybe, we will get another gig in Jersey, in 2012,after the MSG gigs sell out in seconds,again.......
  4. ...
  5. Night 2 was the best show IMO but the setlist in NJ was the best out of the 3 shows. Seeing Brother and Alone was unbelievable. We will def be getting together when they come to the area
  6. True.N1 was amazing as well.If the Newark gig was at MSG,it would have had a different feel.Even though Newark, is only a few miles outside of Manhattan,its.....well.....it aint Manhattan... now is it !!!...LOL
  7. I just watched the first 15 minutes of PJ20 again, and I've just realised that it's very difficult to watch the start. Although Andy Wood was a decent singer, and very charismatic, he was irritatingly arrogant. You can tell he is the kind of guy that, if he survived well into the 90s, would've been hated by Cobain. It's good that Vedder isn't arrogant, and is everything what Andy Wood was too. I personally think Mother Love Bone were mediocre, and would've been completely drowned by Nirvana in the grunge movement. Listening to some of the stuff on their album, it sounds weak.
    It's also hard to watch because of his death. I mean, looking at Chris Cornell and Jeff Ament being so upset about it was just difficult to watch again. Once you get into PJ20, you start to really enjoy. I just cannot enjoy the Mother Love Bone bit though.
  8. I think it's essential to see that stuff because, even though I agree with you 100%, it adds to the chemistry of how Pearl Jam became what they are. One of those "everything that almost wasn't" stories that you get to watch unfold tragically in front of your face.

    To think, "Stone and Jeff were going to do THAT for the entirety of the 90s?!?! I dont THINK so!"

    It brings the "characters" of the story around.
  9. Mother Love Bone had at least 2 great songs (Stardog Champion, Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns) and others quite common yes but keep in mind that most of the Ten material was written by Stone and Jeff and it seems they already reached their musical maturity (surely Mike and Eddie gave a big help of course). so who knows what it would be if Andy didn't die.
    Jeff and Stone would had never met Eddie most likely and maybe neither they joined Mike so no PJ .. and they probably wouldn't have succeeded creating this amazing combinations of musicists and men.

    no doubt about all the differences between Andy Wood and Eddie

    it will for sure .. it will something like 12 years that they don't go over there so they fill this "gap" in their way.
    if you're going to attend you'll finally see what is a real amazing live concert
  11. After a twelve-year absence, there's a good chance you're going to get as close to a "greatest hits" show that PJ would ever do - and that's a good thing, to me.
  12. maybe they will play the whole Avocado and Backspacer hehe
