**** Montreal Fanviews Here 9/7/11 *****

[dislocated]

sigh... wish I could go along with everyone who loved the show. I really wished they played more obscure/random setlist, just let it flow. Their setlist has been the same for 10 years. I know they will play evenflow, alive, betterman, yellowledbetter or rocking to top it off. A soft song to start. Just wish they would change it up a little. Don't get me wrong. LOVE..The Music. but when we can call out every song most of the time... Losing the spark. Miss the spontaneity. Play music guys. You don't need to play to new fans anymore. Just play!!! Sorry about the rant everyone. (just trying to blow off steam).

I agree....?????

"Unlost dogs" wrote this in another thread, and I find it quite funny: "If you want a specific setlist, create a playlist on your iPod."

Yea, because last night's set was so predictable .

Hi everyone,

Here is the site where I posted my photos from the first row (the later ones are better as I got used to what my camera could do).

Check out the pregnant lady (sorry that I forgot your name) with the setlist signed by Mike and the pictures of the crowd.

I will add a photo of my Expo/PJ T-shirt (very cool for a quebecois) in the next few days.

Hope you like them.

I would like to extend a HUGE WTF to the folks in section 112, for about 5 rows in front of row C (probably around 30 people or so), who sat through 90% of the show. They were the ONLY people sitting in the whole joint.

These people are supposedly 10 Clubbers. Do everyone a favor and don't attend any more shows. You are a complete waste of space at a Pearl Jam gig. This isn't the opera. I was thoroughly embarrassed for all of you.

Really, how the fuck do you sit through Corduroy, Insignificance, DTE and Porch??? Oh, but they got right up for Even Flow, Black and Betterman...way to represent.

I understand that everyone is different and everyone does their own thing, but come the fuck on. This band is up there giving EVERYTHING to you; it's your fuckin duty to give it right back to them.

Sorry man, but you're way out of line. Unless you knew the people personally, you have no right to judge.

To most observers, I would look like (as you later put it) 'very able bodied'. What you don't know is the near constant pain and discomfort I'm in. There are times when I've had to sit at concerts because of this. Just because someone looks perfectly healthy doesn't mean they are.

Here's a great site for such ailments:

Just go enjoy the show and don't concern yourself with other people when their actions are not directly affecting you.

Yeah....lol

It sounds like he was pretty impressed with the band. He wasn't too impressed with Mudhoney though.

Did you seriously email him and complain about his article? You're embarrassing us! Don't ruin the good impression he got of PJ and their fans.

Anyone have a pic of the poster?

MAD PROPS to PearlDrummer, who sat directly behind me. 18 years fuckin old and rocked his tits off. New Yorkers behind me also rocked all night. Thank you guys for setting a good example for everyone





Oh, the band was ON FIRE. Get ready for some SHOWS Canada!!!

It was actually row B. I was in row C. It does suck that they were sitting, but honestly I was more annoyed by the behind me in row D who kept screaming at them in my ear (and tried very badly to out-sing Ed...).....I was more focused on enjoying the awesome concert than wasting time wondering who's not dancing.

Awesome concert! One of the best I've seen in mtl; next to '98

High 5 on the performance, energy by the band last night, they were on fire ! Thanks you guys again
Eddie was goodwill gesture, good spirits, feeling the vibe of the North of the Border...playing with Lukin plate, taking care of crowd around...
First time , i saw Mike with a Ridenbacher guitar during "Corduroy" !

Weird loud audience, not very "into it" concerning recent songs but they enjoyed classics.
During the 1st encore, crowd were definitly not into it until "Black"....

It was my 11th Pearl Jam and i was a bit in shock about we have to wait to the 16th song of the night for a Ten song (Why Go)...

Highlights of the night : Hail Hail, Comeback, Setting Forth, The Fixer, Glorified G, Sleight of hand (he nailed the lyrics but nice return !), Why go, Crazy mary, Given to Fly.

the "low light" of the night : Typical setlist for a "hard to die" fan like me. No element of surprise. No pre-set (!?)... Small Town is really not an opening song also... A very good show point blank.

Thanks Mudhoney for the 1st song of the night with "the money will roll right in" (Nirvana did that one often during Europe 1992 tour)
Cant wait to see a picture of the last night setlist to compare !

Thanks 10C for floor row u !

Im going to Toronto 1,2 and Ottawa ... Hope for much more surprises !

[tremors]

Always great to read the fanviews. Thanks. It always makes the show seem that much closer to home
