(Ed says there are lot of people that see every show including the crew, X and family. He says, "you know it's not bullshit when I say this is the best crowd we have had on this tour."

great s set

[IamTom]

Helluva show.

Dont post often in show reviews if at all but just want to say the crowd was amazing. Easily the best I've been in. Sang their hearts out, rocked their socks off and made for a wonderful, wonderful show.

Thank you all. Thank you Pearl Jam.

And don't get excited about Angie. It was a couple of bars.

Set list: pending

Is this from the new record?

Great crowd. The band seems to be having a lot of fun at these shows. Mike played the last part of Even Flow with the guitar behind his head. Not to be outdone eddie then played the intro to Setting Forth behind his head. Funny moment.

Do the evolution was one of the best. Eddie had the crowd sing stone's guitar part several times. I think he was so into it he later forget the lyrics to the part right after it.

Was thinking since the show started 30 minutes later than normal that we would get a shorter show. I was wrong.

Followed by pending reprise for the 1st encore.

Today was one of the best days of my life. I met jeff this am and of course he was very nice and cool. My buddy met mike later on so we were both beaming more than usual for the show. The show was unreal. Ive been to many and the crowd was a step above. The band definitely reciprocated with a lively, awesome show. Setlist highlights for me were half full, push me pull me, great renditions of the ten album songs, save it for later, setting forth into not for you into modern girl, of the girl, and baba. Prague is easily one of the best cities in the world and i cant wait for what berlin has in store. This band DOES keep getting better. Theres no denying it. They are having a blast on stage and thats always contagious. Eddie sounds great too. am so thrilled to be a member of this family. Its so special. Thanks pj and thanks pj crowd.

[Suziemay]

Unfuckingbelievable. Still processing but the crowd was amazing, band was amazing. Set list could have been anything really, it would not have mattered. Been meeting some wonderfully nice people too, I think most of you will be in Berlin, so see you soon

Rob + Mrs Rob from Baltimore standing about 3 rows deep Mike's side, it was super cool chatting before the show and also rocking out. I was standing right next to you, from NYC and stressing out about grabbing the poster Between worrying about merch and getting home I totally forgot to tell you in person.

I ran into Stone + daughter in the morning too which was super cool. Totally unexpected, all I said was, "I'm going to the show tonight! And Stone said, "oh yeah? It's going to be a great show, I think". I didn't want to bother him more so all i said was "see ya". And boy oh boy,was it ever!!!! Stone came over to Mike's side at the end of the show to wave and say thank you, which I don't think I've seen. Gawd I can't wait for the boot!!

Ed said something about his injury, and how there was a moment when he thought all this might be taken away from him, and being able to do this with this crowd was just amazing. Something like that. He also said Prague's the best crowd of the tour so far

There were many good moments but one of my favorite parts was when Ed was making up words on the spot about not wanting the night to end...Might have been Not For You? And he he kept going and at one point Jeff, Mike, Stone and Matt were all like, I'm, where are you going with this? And Ed started singing a song and forgot entire lines. Can't remember which song, don't think it was on the official set list. Im not good with remembering songs..if only there was a way.. Oh right. Official boots!!! Oh and when Ed introduced the band in Czech and Stone was the other guitar player and note paper holder or something to that effect because Stone was holding up Ed's notes while he was addressing the audience in Czech. And they were both cracking up.

And when he quoted Oscar Wilde he first said "Oliver Wilde" then corrected himself, saying "he lets me call him Oliver"

Favorite song I heard were probably Crazy Mary which I don't normally love.

Favorite favorite part of the night was seeing the band so happy!

WOW. I don't think I can sleep tonight! What a magical night! I can't stop smiling

You are having the time of your life man..

[cropdustress]

All i can say right now is that im still having goosebumps just by thinking back about the show and reading the posts. What energy. God, i love this band. And the fans/friends

[URthekey]

I thought the show was a little rough at the begginning but picked up momentum quickly.
The crowd really gave back the energy the band was putting out.
Loved Of the Girl, & Push me pull me into Garden.
Also a particularly moving Crazy Mary.
Met some great people, including 5 Czech's that were seeing PJ for the first time for free after meeting Mike in Old Towne and getting on the guest list. At the start they were blown away by how much us freaks really love the band and couldn't believe that we travel from all over the globe to see them, but by the end of the show they totally understood.
Thank you PJ & X!
