TFT Notes: The first Cincinnati show in 6 years - 2003's show was cancelled due to flooding at the venue - begins at 7:25PM with Eddie and his guitar taking the stage for a solo version of "The Kids Are Alright." The first of many Who references tonight (Eddie is also wearing a "Maximum R&B" style Who t-shirt). He introduces opening act Robert Pollard, noting that Pollard is from "up the road" in Dayton, Ohio (only about 30 miles away from Cincy). Ed is sidestage rocking out for most of Pollard's set, and joins him on stage for the last part of Pollard's last song, "Love is Stronger than Witchcraft." "Even Flow" notably gets large chunks of Jimi Hendrix's "Third Rock from the Sun" thrown into the jam, courtesy of Mike McCready. Later, "Not For You" sports a "Modern Girl" tag (Sleater-Kinney), "Better Man" gets a tag of "Save it for Later," and Wishlist gets tagged with the same Robert Pollard song that Eddie joined Pollard on during the opening set, "Love is Stronger than Witchcraft." Early on, fans in the front rows throw little plastic parachute toys onstage and Ed comments that he finally understands why, but he says they still aren't going to play "Parachutes" tonight. Appropriately right before "Love Boat Captian," Eddie discusses how almost exactly six years to the day ago, nine fans died at the concert in Denmark (Roskilde) and among the first people to call and offer support were The Who's Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend. He went on to explain that it was at this very same Cincinnati venue (then called the Riverfront Coliseum) where several fans died in a similar crush trying to enter a Who concert (It was 12/3/1979 and 11 died). At another point in the night, Ed pulled out a flyer and discussed how a Pearl Jam fan named Brian Shaffer from Columbus, Ohio had been missing since April, and since the band feels like the fans are in some way "part of the family," they wanted to call attention to him in hopes that someone is able to help find him. Ed mentioned that , and described Brian's Pearl Jam tattoo and the reward for information along with a website to visit if you know anything, findbrianshaffer.com. Mike McCready, as usual, is really into his "Crazy Mary" solo, and Ed tries to do the classic back-to-back lean with him, but Mike charges on by to rock out over by Boom. A song later, after "Rearviewmirror", as the band leaves the stage, Ed jokingly kicks Mike in the butt. When they return for the final encore, someone in the front row throws a copy of the new Rolling Stone with Eddie on the cover on stage and Ed begins to elaborately wipe his ass with it, angrily commenting about how they agreed to do the Rolling Stone cover as a band, but they went and put only Eddie on the cover anyway. He said something along the lines of, "I have fifty copies of this at home next to the toilet to use when I take a shit." He also talked about how Pearl Jam has survived for almost 16 years because they are a band - not just one guy - and how they did a whole band photo shoot and everything, but the magazine put that picture on the inside. By the end of Ed's diatribe, the magazine was in shreds and a high energy "Comatose" was launched. In yet another Who nod, the night ended with "Baba O'Riley," with Eddie and Robert Pollard trading verses.
