When you go to a Pearl Jam show

When you go to a Pearl Jam concert. You walk away thinking "this is the best show ever". And how can they top it? And their shows at Madison Square Garden on May 20th and 21st were no exception. With the 21st being the better one. But the 20th was for me still special. As I got to hear I Got id. Haven't heard that one live until that day. And also because I didn't have a ticket for that show and wasn't expecting to go. Until a lovely and kind angel handed me a ticket at a pre-party organized by fans for a charity run by fans. The Wishlist Foundation. The first thing great about the May 21st show at MSG. Was that I finally got floor seats for a concert at this venue. I was either at the 100's section or 400's. Not that it really matters where you sit a Pearl Jam show. But it's something you'd like to experience. Second I wore my sister's glasses. Which made me see the stage clearer. And finally. Well not finally. But I don't want to write too much. They played 34 songs and close to 2 hours and 40 minutes. The energy of the crowd was amazing. The guitar solos from Mike and Stone. I haven't been to many shows. But there were a lot of Stone solos at this show. Which l like. I guess i could write more. But I'll post a couple of videos instead.
