Notes (from 5H):
Tonight Mr. Stone Gossard rules the stage, starting with a fiery solo during 'DTE.' The band is much more tight and focused tonight and Ed demonstrates no visible ill effects of yesterday's ankle injury. The first five songs charge right into each other with no time for talk - amazing. After 'Light Years,' Ed greets the crowd. "Hi! We've been here before, right? Yeah, I remember... the first band was the Murder City Devils, from Seattle; tonight we had an import from Oxford, England, called Supergrass, let's thank them." 'NAIS' is killer, 'Even Flow' has Stone right at the front of the stage, as he was all night, walking back and forth, playing to Jeff, making silly faces at Mike, having little side conversations with Ed between songs (including one where he tells Ed he wants to play 'Mankind' next, and then after the next song, steps to his mic and clears his throat, looking quizzically in Ed's direction; apparently it was on the setlist but never played tonight.)
'Once' starts by Mike leaping into a kick split and is punctuated by many more throughout the show. The 'Save It For Later' tag is really enthusiastic and lengthy. 'Jeremy' is intro'd: "This next song is called, Love Amongst The Dead." Ed fucks up the words in the second verse and lets the crowd sing it back to him to get his place.
Some apparently insensitive person decided that a sign campaign for 'Alive' was appropriate for some stupid reason and the band returns for the first encore to a halfhearted sea of signs. Ed tries to make the point by talking about many other things, and when the signs didn't go away, he finally says, "I see the signs; it's good to know that you can organize yourselves to support something, even a song; please put the signs down and vote for Ralph Nader." [In other words, NO.]
'Untitled' is extended and Ed's going to arrive in "58 minutes" tonight (a nod to the late and popular Kansas City Chief's linebacker Derrick Thomas who died after injuries from a car accident); a tighter version of 'U' (Ed joked, "This one's hard to find...it was a b-side ... you can find it on Napster... hey, that's where we found it!") surfaces for the second night in a row. A super-intense 'RVM' followed by an incredibly ferocious 'RITFW' close out a brilliant performance.
