TFT Notes: The band is playing Cleveland and Detroit consecutively, coinciding with the NBA Playoffs pitting the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. the Detroit Pistons. "That last song is called 'Unemployable' which I'm sure the state of Ohio knows plenty about. It's a beautiful place, but we'll always make room for you in Seattle if you ever want to come out. Then you'll be jobless and wet and depressed, but you'll be out drinkin with us, so it'll be alright." Continuing, Ed introduces "Gone", saying that "there's a line in a song called 'Dissident' that says something about 'escape is never the safest path' or the easiest way, but this song kinda explores that idea, it's called 'Gone'." "It's OK" returns as a "Daughter" tag (at a slightly higher pitch than previous versions) with the entire band playing a slightly different arrangement. Ed modifies the lyrics somewhat, "This is my plea / this is my need / this is my time for standing free / this is my stand / in this world so demanding of me". "Immortality" starts with a few bars of finger-picking guitar, similar to some previous versions. Ed gets a big roar from the crowd during "Do The Evolution" with the lyric change "Those ignorant Indians .. they're a great team, right?" An adventurous 10-minute "new Porch" begins with an even slower-than-usual start by Ed before it kicks in with the second verse. Ed does band intros during the jam, including "on bass, and rooting for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Mr. Jeff Ament" and "the engine with so many horsepower there's no number, Matt Cameron on the drumkit", "from the jungle to Cleveland, Mr. Boom Gasper on the B3", and "sometimes you don't pick your friends but he's one of my best friends, Stone Gossard on guitar". After the main set, Ed says that "it's interesting, the place we go next is Detroit and we're in no hurry..." which starts many chants including boos and eventually Ed picks up on an anti-Detroit chant, "I got it ... I can't repeat it because of the bootlegs and all, (Detroit will) get a hold of it. (long pause) I can say it once, 'Pistons Suck'" to loud cheers. "Thumbing My Way" is played for the only time during the first leg of this tour. Starting the second encore, Ed wants to buy everyone a drink for being such a good crowd and beckons the arena staff to "open up the beer stands". Ed modifies the "Comatose" lyrics "Blood on all the pistons / Fuck the Detroit Pistons! / Feel it rising (sorry!) / Yeah, next stop falling (sorry Detroit!) / Feel it rising / Comatose, with no fear of falling". "U", "Don't Gimme No Lip" and "Smile" have the band "taking care of a couple of requests that (they've) been seeing" so far on Leg One. After "Fuckin' Up", Ed tells the crowd about a dream he had where the moon exploded and "crumbled and disappeared into nothing", creating a world of chaos with the absence of the tides". He continues that he thinks maybe the moon in his dream could be like "democracy", and "it looks like it's full right now, but if we don't start paying attention ... and looking at it thinking it's beautiful, it's just gonna disappear like this on us if we don't participate, and you would know better here in Ohio - the deciding vote" (the vote tally in the state of Ohio decided the winner in the 2004 Presidential election).
