Wow!
Bravo!

Mike October 9, 2009 at 3:24 pm

They played ‘Breath’ in Vancouver. Back to Back with SOLAT it was awesome!!

Allen October 9, 2009 at 4:11 pm

They played Hunger Strike with Chris Cornell in LA on Oct 6 – AWESOME!!!!!

Fitzy October 9, 2009 at 5:16 pm

At least they are skipping the worst song off backspacer…

Karen October 9, 2009 at 5:31 pm

What about Elderly Woman Behind a Counter in a small town? I know they played it, but I don’t see it listed.

Karen October 9, 2009 at 5:33 pm

Nevermind….listed as small town. Sorry.

Anthony October 9, 2009 at 10:16 pm

And technically the version of ‘Supersonic’ played at Seattle night 2 contained completely different lyrics in honor of the Seattle Supersonics. How should that be counted in the stats?

Farry Aprianto October 10, 2009 at 12:16 am

Yes, Helman Taofani of PJ-Id is a Pearl Jam geek. And that is a compliment! ;-)
Backspacer is out now in Indonesia. Better late than later!
And we will be having our own Backspacer Listening Party tonight. Report coming soon!

Sean B October 11, 2009 at 12:57 pm

Fitzy, there is no worse song. In fact Speed of Sound may be the best, listen to it again, Been to 4 and heard em’ all, sans Speed.

Doctor Robert October 11, 2009 at 2:25 pm

I like when people call it Small Town instead… ala Eddie Vedder. The other name gives me a headache everytime I see it.

Doctor Robert October 11, 2009 at 2:26 pm

Are their similiar stats for past tours? This is good work…

Hilman October 12, 2009 at 4:45 am

Thank you very much Two Feet Thick for publishing my stats. Yes, I’m a bit obsessed with their setlist….don’t you guys? :)

As for Anthony, let the details left for Two Feet Thick who done a really great job providing Concert Chronology.

reza October 12, 2009 at 6:11 am

ha ha helman is definetely the MAN for this kind of work…god job brother…you all should know he also made stats of how many times each members of PJ.id appears in a short clip we prepare for Backspacer listening party. The clip shows slideshow of pictures taken from various PJ.id activity…

Fanboy October 12, 2009 at 6:40 am

Awesome work. I love seeing stuff like this.

stompbox October 12, 2009 at 11:45 am

They played Tremor Christ Wed Sep 30, 2009 Universal City, California Gibson Amphitheater

Ipul October 13, 2009 at 2:38 am

Thats my buddy..!! Helman was a really-really right person for this kind of a job..
he’s a little bit obsessed with PJ’s setlist…and he is our living PJ’s encyclopedia..
ask him about PJ and he will answer it for sure…damn..!! what a fans..:)

jamesdell October 14, 2009 at 6:20 pm

You should also look at songs they close main sets with and encores before the final song of the night. It was interesting to see them close with Corduroy once in Oz leg of 2006. Plus Last Exit at one of the Jersey shows in 06′. The way they choose the sets is interesting on some nights. I could of sworn they just reversed one of the 06′ Oz shows backwards by opening with Porch and Alive on different nights, lol!

Cozza October 14, 2009 at 9:29 pm

Great work, good to see some songs that haven’t been played for a while re-emerging.

John October 15, 2009 at 10:46 pm
