I really don't know what to say about Pearl Jam. You hear from everyone they are "high energy" and they are, there are no other words to describe it. They just pure rock hard and continuously. Well worth Jim's money. Ben Harper opened and we are huge fans as well. We had so much fun, it was especially fun to see Jim so excited it was like it was Christmas for him. He really couldn't contain himself and that might have been my favorite part. This was my first time seeing them and I was excited but I had nothing on Jim, and this was Jim's like 10th time. I loved every minute of it. It was also their 50th time performing in Seattle and they felt a little nostalgic returning home. They played 3 or more songs off of just about every album. So everyone was singing along of course at the top of their lungs. They didn't play my favorite song, Courderoy of Vitalogy but I'll live. At one point they changed the lyrics to Supersonic and made it into Supersonics about our basketball team that moved to Oklahoma, but the venue they were performing in was the same venue the sonics used to play in and they even took our flag downs and they talked about that too in the song! It was awesome. Their logo tshirt for the night was the supersonics logo with pearl jam written just below it. I didn't buy one, I'm not a sucker like that but I really wanted one. IT JUST ROCKED. They are so amazing but I don't think Eddie's voice will take him into his 60's like bob dylan's or Bruce's has.
but it said Pearl Jam instead. SO COOL! I WANT ONE!
Here is the setlist

Sounds like a blast. I'm still sad the Sonics are gone. I think you should have been a sucker and gotten the shirt it sounds awesome.
very cool! you should definitely try and get the shirt! i love that you said it was well worth Jim's money! hehe.
So I am kicking myself that I didn't get the shirt and they don't sell them, because it was only for that one night. The back said September 22, like a basketball name and number on the back.
Yeah, you're going to regret not buying that shirt forever.
My favorite part? Hayley's pictures of the concert next to the NO CAMERAS ALLOWED on the tickets. NICE, HT.
PS - I am coming to the wedding.
