If you got dragged to Sunday's Pearl Jam show unwillingly and somehow never warmed up to the band during the duration of the performance, then it must've been one excruciating night.
I'd read reviews from prior shows on this jaunt and knew it would be a long one, but I was even surprised how the band just kept going. When the house lights came up for "Alive" during the second encore, it just screamed "finale!" Sure enough, though, the show even rolled on from there, with "Rockin' in the Free World" blaring out under the bright lights, curiously followed by the much more languid but similarly provocative "Indifference."
The show clocked in at 3 hours and 10 minutes in the end, with 32 songs. Click here to read the full review.
