Got back late last night from Milwaukee. Spent the weekend at the kickoff show for Pearl Jam's 20th anniversary tour.
I'm a fairly casual PJ fan, but those guys put on two nights of incredible show.
Openers were Mudhoney, The Strokes and Queens of the Stone Age. All got a big "meh" from me.
First night was all pretty rare/obscure stuff. Not really ideal for the common fan, but the energy was still amazing. As an added bonus, Chris Cornell showed up and did "Hunger Strike", "Say Hello To Heaven" and "Stardog Champion". Pretty fucking cool. He came back again the 2nd night for the same songs.
