  1. When they played Porch in Stockholm it was a great long jam with Eddie finding a basketball and messing around and everything.
  2. Originally posted by RUMMY:Losing Black and Immortality is understandably a big disappointment. I won't bother trying to follow up with a "silver lining" statement as those are arguably two of their best tunes.

    And two of my five or six favourites. Ouch
  3. That's part of it! If they played a greatest hits set every night you'd def get those 2 at every show... To me being stuck around a dead group of people is what ruins the experience more than any set change.

    The silver lining is that they played my favourite, nothingman
  5. Glad to hear you got your favorite!! You'll get the other tunes next time

    Yeah the setlist wasn't bad, some of the crowd sucked though. Even a few of the people who knew every word looked bored and not particularly interested in the seven minute jam part of Porch, and at Kick Out the Jams.

    In my opinion the Gold Coast set was better and I feel as though the band actually gave more to the show and crowd on the 19th, probably due to the weather (insanely hot all day and night)

    It happenes dude! It especially sucks when the first one is better! Sets the bar so high. I'm glad you enjoyed most of the show. The problem is not necessarily the "jam" but it's probably more of the fact that Porch itself is very overplayed lately.

  8. One thing everyone disappointed with was that Pearl Jam played a festival with one show in each city bar Sydney. They come here and sell out multiple nights in reasonably large stadiums (35-40k) but only do one festival show to mostly 15-20 year olds who would generally rather be at the DJ sets. Even EV said last night that they wanted more concerts here
  9. I suppose there is always next year for stadiums. I can almost see them touring Lightning Bolt a little bit more aggressively. I'd expect some August-September North American dates soon.

    Yeah I'm not disappointed at all. And it wasn't a bad show by any means, it was still great. It's just that to me, the Gold Coast show was greater!

    I hope the do come back Kieran, I'd love to see more of these guys
