ckoke, I disagree about Ole, it's a great tune and when eddie and the boys ripped it in Vancouver it went over very well. For us the passion was there and reliving it now with the boot makes it even more apparent. So relax a little and say OLE!
This particular show was much much better than the first night, but after the original setlist, the encores and energy levels took a nosedive (playing tunes like The Fixer (detuned), Just Breathe and Last Kiss); the other songs during the encore just flat out lacked power (which included Alive, Why Go and Jeremy.)
Coming out with Go and Animal got things going right away, and then they played that crappy Ole song (fortunately they kept the momentum going despite that) with Deep, Garden, Rats and other 90s hits.
Minus the two encores, the fellows put on a great show (and on my birthday!!!!)
Another great night in Toronto. After 2 amazing Wishlist Foundation preparties @ the Loose Moose and the main events @ the ACC, it was just amazing. I had a great time. Can't wait to see you guy's again there in Toronto. :)
Even though Sunday night had 'Long Road' (I got goosebumps) and an unbelievable appearance by Neil Young, it just didn't compare to Monday night. Monday night ROCKED. I have seen PJ 27 times and I can honestly say the 9/12 show is a contender for my favorite show ever, tied with the Fri 10/30/09 show in Philly.
Ya the people sitting in front of me were on their asses as well. I didn't let it ruin my fun though, I rocked hard enough for me and them. My sister on the other hand was yelling at them so I had to calm her down and tell her not to let other people ruin her fun. When I was standing in line for a beer people were looking at me like I had a horn growing out of my head because I was singing my heart out along with the band.
Thought the show was killer (still liked sunday better)
But I must had been sitting in the dud section 107, there was barely anyone rocking out around us except for these 2 chicks in front of us. We all rocked out and if you couldn't see......too bad, Just didn't feel the energy was good as sundays.
Completely agree that the energy level was off the charts - the band blasted into the show with Go, Animal and Ole like they were shot out of a cannon. I recall Eddie saying that they were going to pace themselves - he didn't say that the pace would remain at light speed! Incredible.
I absolutely loved the set list - it was awesome to hear songs like Sad, In My Tree, Rats, Garden, Setting Forth and Deep.
Truly amazing performance - 2011 Bootlegs can't come fast enough!!!!
What an amazing experience.. One of the greatest bands of our time celebrating 20 years and some people were standing like it was a fucking sewing circle.. Not into it at all.. 10C goes through all that trouble to get you those seats the least you could do was enjoy them... It's a fucking rock concert... If you don't come out sweating and sore... Well what's the point? I was the guy trying to get everyone to wake up... Is it that hard to clap along? I had a great view... Amazing set list... Would have been nice to see uncle Neil but... As usual they did Toronto proud.. As for me I'm still hung over and have no voice at all.. Thanks so much 10C..
Please, continue with these amazing setlists in Brazilian tour!!!! I hope to hear a lot of songs you've been playing!! Garden, Deep, Rats, Light Years, I Got ID, and a whole lot more...
I was at both shows, both were amazing. The only problem for me was that something I ate on Sunday night gave me terrible food poisoning. On Monday I had to get off the subway three times on the way to the show to puke and lost my vision completely for about a minute changing trains at bloor and yonge stations. I was glad that my seats in section 116 were unobstructed so I could sit. Stood for the whole show on Sunday and would have loved to do the same on Monday but couldn't. I agree that if you don't understand what a gift it is to see one of the most incredible bands in the history of rock then maybe you shouldn't go but sometimes there's more at work than you see on the surface.
both shows were incredible ,... sunday had a better setlist but last night he had a connection with the crowd~ and thats a big deal ,... wish the set list from sunday was with the energy from monday ,.. but no complaining i had the best 2 nights of my life with this band ,. they fucking KILLED toronto!!!
I've been seeing this band live since 92 and last night's show at the ACC was possibly the single greatest experience I've ever had. Blew the Sunday show away (minus uncle Neil) and made going to work today on 3hrs sleep so worth it!!!!!
Incredible show - they gave it their all - what amazing energy. I was disappointed to have missed Sunday night and Neil but it sounds as though Monday's concert was even better! Loved it. 20 years of loving this band - I guess music keeps us young.
Kiler Show Monday........ Blew Sunday show away exept for Neil........ Cant wait for the Hammer. I think they should pull out all the metal for Steeltown!
I would like to say that the majority of Section 319 was a bunch of buzz-kills and f!@king posers. They stayed in their seats and didn't clap or even give a head nod every now and then. This is a ROCK SHOW not a funeral. They saw an amazing show, yet still seemed annoyed by myself and my gf rocking out. NOTE TO SELF: check email and facebook after the show NOT during.
