10/12/2013 Pearl Jam (Buffalo, NY @ First Niagara Center)
By Eric | October 31, 2013 9:43 am
It’s a Pearl Jam show, with no opener. How much better could it get? Michaela and I had seats up in the moon (304 to be exact), but we could see and hear perfectly. This was the 2nd show of the first leg of the Lightning Bolt tour, so the band was still feeling out and debuting songs off the new album (My Father’s Son and Swallowed Whole), but they never forget the die-hard fans, with a couple No Code tracks on this night (Sometimes, Present Tense, Off He Goes), I’m partial to Immortality and Indifference, plus we got Low Light and Rats! I was a bit surprised that Yellow Ledbetter wasn’t the closer (or played at all for that matter), but it hardly mattered. The band was in top-notch form, and the crowd was electric from start to finish (and no one sat down the entire night, anywhere). To top it all off, after the show, to “avoid the traffic” (lol) we wandered next door to Buffalo Iron Works to grab a drink, and they had Mookie Blaylock, Buffalo’s Pearl Jam cover band (featuring Joe, Alex and Mario from STEMM) playing! A perfect nightcap!
