La scène est assez sombre puis Mike joue les premières
notes de Present Tense et le public devient dingue. Beaucoup d’énergie
avec les chansons suivantes avec par exemple Animal et Even Flow qui
nous font replonger 10 ans en arrière, on voit le blanc des yeux
d’Eddie et ses grimaces menaçantes; Mike tourne sur lui-même,
court partout comme un animal libéré et joue à
la perfection. Trempé de sueur, Ed regarde les banderoles de
la coupe Stanley (Savis Center est la patinoire des St. Louis Blues)
et dit que les drapeaux aide l’acoustique mais que les pieds des
public doivent être gelés, puis poursuit avec Sleight Of
Hand suivit par You Are soutenue par de palpitants effets lumineux.
Il y a quelque chose d’amusant avec Elderly Woman : Ed est prêt
à commencer la chanson et Stone change de guitare et boit un
coup, faisant attendre Ed. Il plaisante entre eux deux durant la chanson
avec notamment de grandes grimaces. Intense version de Not For You avec
petit changement de paroles : "small my table, seats saint Lou"
qui fait énormément réagir le public. Le set principal
se termine avec DTE (Trop fort Jeff à la basse !) et Alive avec
Eddie qui fait tourner son micro à la Daltrey pendant le solo
de Mike. Ed rampe derrière un garde de sécurité
en costume cravate au-dessous de Mike et fait croire qu’il va
sauter sur lui mais le garde est si sérieux qu’il ne le
regarde pas ce qui fait rire le groupe. Une longue improvisation suit
une lente version de Black. Les paroles de l’impro sont: "I
don't know where, I wanna go, I just know I need to go. ... get me the
fuck outta here" puis plus tard "when I feel that regime change,
starts at home, starts at home, take me home, let's go". Avec beaucoup
de percussion et la mélodie des paroles font penser un peu à
Animal. L’improvisation mène à Rearviewmirror comportant
un bridge prolongé sous le bel éclairage de Kelly pour
clôturer la première série de rappels. Eddie est
de retour avec sa bouteille de vin ("à votre santé,
à la santé de Dead Moon que vous n’avez jamais entendu"),
remercie Sparta, plaisante sur le hockey et prend son ukulélé
et sans dans un version impeccable de Soon Forget, le public ne l’accompagne
pas en applaudissant mais apprécie la chanson. Il finit la chanson
en tenant une note très longtemps puis fait une variété
de sauts et de moulins à vent avec son ukulélé.
Il demande au public de chanter le premier couplet de Betterman et à
la fin le tag est une version lente de Save it For Later. Daughter suit,
sans tag mais avec un très très long jam avec Ed qui joue
différents solos à l’harmonica. Puis il prend sont
miroir et fait dévier l’éclairage d’un spot
autour du public pendant quelques minutes avec beaucoup de réaction
du public. Indifference conclut se superbe concert. |
| Present Tense Musique: McCready Paroles: Vedder Album: No Code Date: 27 août 1996 Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire> Leaning out to catch the sun's rays. A lesson to be applied. Are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip? You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, ohh, or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who can forgive yourself. Oh. Makes much more sense to live in the present tense. Have you ideas on how this life ends? Checked your hands and studied the lines. Have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light? Seems that needlessly it's getting harder to find an approach and a way to live. Are we getting something out of this all encompassing trip. You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, ohh, or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who cannot forgive yourself. Oh, ohh. Makes more sense to live in the present tense. |

| Green Disease Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Riot Act Date: 12 novembre 2002 It's a disease and they're all green. It emminates from their being. Agitation with occupation. And like weeds with big leaves. Stealing light from what's beneath. Where they have more. Still they take more. Course I know. Then I don't. There's a stoway with my throat. It's deceiving. I don't believe him. We can scream out our doors. Behind the wall a fat man snores. In his dreams he's choking on leaves. Well I guess there's nothing wrong with what you say. But don't sell me, "There can't be better ways." Tell the captain "This boat's not safe, and we're drowning." Turns up he's the one making waves. Waves. Waves. I said there's nothing wrong with what you say. Believe me just asking you to sway. No white or black just grey. Can you feel this world with your heart and not your brain? |

| Grievance Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Binaural Date: 16 mai 2000 Have a drink they're buying. Bottom of bottle of denial. Big eye, big eye watching me. Have to wonder what it sees. Sin. Progress laced with ramifications. Freedom's big punch. Oh. Pull the innocent from a crowd. Raise those sticks them bring them down. If they fail to obey. Ah, if they fail to obey. Yeah yeah. For every tool they lend us a loss of independence. I pledge my grievance to the flag. Cause you don't give blood then take it back again. Oh we're all deserving something more. Progress. Taste it. Invest it all. Champagne breakfast for everyone. Everyone. Break the innocent when they're proud. Raise those stakes then bring them down. If they fail to obey. Yeah, ha, if they fail to obey. Pledge your grievance to the flag. Cause, don't give blood then take it back again. Oh, we're all deserving something more. Have a, have a drink, drink. Have a, have a drink, drink. I want to breathe part of the scene. I want to taste everyone I see. I want to run when I'm up high. I want to run to the sea. I want life to be. I just want to be. I will feel alive as long as I am free. |

| Faithfull Musique: McCready Paroles: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 Plaque on the wall says that, "No one's slept here." It's rare to come appon a bridge that has not been around, or been stepped on. Whatever the notion we lace in our prayers, the man upstairs is used to all of this noise. I'm through with screaming. It echoes. Nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes. Like echoes. Nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes, like this. We're faithfull. We all believe, we all believe it. Echoes. Nobody hears, it goes, it goes, it goes. We're faithfull. We all believe we all believe it. M-Y-T-H is belief in the game. Controls that keeps us in our box of fear. We never listen. Voice inside so drowned out. Drowned... You are, you are, you are everything. And everything is you. Me you, you me, it's all related. What's a boy to do? Just be a darling and I will be too, faithfull to you. |

| Given To Fly Musique: McCready Paroles: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 He could have tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out. A bad time nothing could save him. Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out. He got up outta there ran for hundreds of miles. He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree. The wind rose up set him down on his knee. A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw. Deliver him wings, "Hey look at me now!" Arms wide open with the sea as his floor oh, oh, oh... He's flying, whole! High! wide! oh... He floated back down cause he wanted to share. This key to the locks, on the chains, he saw everywhere. But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed by faceless men. Well fuckers, he still stands. And he still gets his love he just gives it away. The love he receives is the love that is saved. And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky. A human being that was given to fly... Flying! whole... High! flying! whole... He's flying! woah... High... woah... oh... |

Ooh yeah. Oh, hand out faces that he sees time again ain't that familiar. Ooh yeah. Oh, dark grin. He can't help when his happy looks insane. Ooh. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away-yeah. Ooh. Oh, someday yet he'll begin his life again. Life again. Life again. Kneeling. Looking through the paper though he doesn't know to read. Ooh yeah. Oh, praying now to something that has never showed him anything. Oh, feeling understands the weather of the winters on its way. Oh, ceilings few and far between all the legal halls of shame. Yeah. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away. Oh, someday yet he'll begin his life again. Oh, whispering hands gently lead him away. Him away. Him away. Yeah. Woo. Ah Yeah. Fuck your money. Even flow. Thoughts arrive like butterflies. Oh, he don't know so he chases them away. A-someday yet he'll begin his life again. Yeah. Oh, whispering hands gently lead him away. Him away. Him away. Yeah. Woo. Uh huh yeah. Yeah yeah, momma mommy |

| Sleight Of Hand Musique: Ament Paroles: Vedder Album: Binaural Date: 16 mai 2000 Routine was the theme. He'd wake up wash and pour himself into uniform. Something he hadn't imagined being. As the merging traffic passed he found himself staring down at his own hands. Not remembering the change. Not recalling the plan. Was it? He was okay but wondering about wandering. Was his age by consequence or was he moved by sleight of hand? Mondays were made to fall. Lost on a road he knew by heart. It was like a book he read in his sleep. Endlessly. Sometimes he hid in the radio watching other pull into their homes. While he was drifting. On a line of his own. Off the line of the side. Bye the by. As dirt turned to sand. As if moved by sleight of hand. When he reached the shore of his clip on world he resurfaced to the norm. Organized his few things. His coat and keys. And he knew realizations would have to wait. Till he had more time. More time. A time to dream to himself. He waves goodbye to his self. I'll see you on the other side. Another man moved by sleight of hand. |

| You Are Musique: Cameron Paroles: Vedder, Cameron Album: Riot Act Date: 12 novembre 2002 This broken wheel is coming undone. And the road's exploding. But you're keeping me strong. Rolling along with you. Love is a tower and you're the key. Leading me higher. When you let me in. Keeping us close, so close, on down the line. Sometimes I burn like a dot on the sun with no one knowing. But you're keeping me strong. Moving along with you. You are a tower of strength to me. The darkening hour sees light again. Again. Ooh wah, ooh wah, you are, you are. Love is a tower of strength to me. I am the shoreline but you're the sea. |

| Elderly Woman Behind the Counter Of A
Small Town Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 I seem to recognize your face. Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it. Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name. Lifetimes are catching up with me. All these changes taking place. I wish I'd seen the place but no one's ever taken me. Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away. Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away. I swear I recognize your breath. Memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raising. Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former. It's hard when your stuck upon the shelf. I changed by not changing at all. Small town predicts my fate. Perhaps that's what no one wants to see. I just want to scream, "Hello." My god its been so long. Never dreamed you'd return. But now here you are and here I am. Hearts and thoughts they fade...away... Hearts and thoughts they fade...away... Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... Hearts and thoughts they fade... |

| Not For You Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vitalogy Date: 6 décembre 1994 Restless soul, enjoy your youth. Like Muhammad. Hits the truth. Can't escape from the common rule - if you hate something don't you do it too. Small my table. A-sits just two. Got so crowded. I can't make room. Oh where did they come from? Stormed my room. And you dare say it belongs to you. To you. This is not for you. My friends call me Ed, they call me. My friends they don't scream. My friends don't call. My friends don't. All that's sacred comes from youth. Dedication. Naive and true. With no power. Nothing to do. I still remember. Why don't you? Don't you? This is not for you. Never was for you. Fuck you. This is not for you. |

| Wishlist Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off. I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on. I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on the Christmas tree. I wish I was the star that went on top. I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the clouds. Or 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky. I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me. I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me. I wish I was a messenger, and all the news was good. I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood. I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun. I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on. I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on. I wish I was the verb "to trust" and never let you down. I wish I was a radio song the one that you turned up. |

| Do The Evolution Musique: Gossard Paroles: Vedder Album: Yield Date: 3 février 1998 I'm ahead, I'm a man I'm the first mammal to wear pants. I am at peace with my lust. I can kill cause in god I trust. It's evolution baby. I'm a piece of the man. I buy stocks on the day of the crash. On the loose. I'm a truck. All the rolling hills I'll flatten 'em out. It's herd behavior. Uh huh. It's evolution baby Admire me, admire my home, admire my son, he's my clone. This land is mine, this land is free, I'll do what I want, yet irresponsibly. It's evolution baby. I'm a thief. I'm a liar. There's my church I sing in the choir. Hall-le-lu-jah. Admire me, admire my home, admire my song, admire my clothes. Consider, appetite for nightly feasts. Those ignorant Indians got nothing on me. Nothing. Why? Because, it's evolution baby. I am ahead, I am advanced, I am the first mammal to make plans. I crawled the earth, but now I'm higher. 2010 watch it go to fire. It's evolution baby. I do the evolution. |

Sin still plays and preaches but to have an empty court. Uh huh. And the signs are passing. grip the wheel can't read it. Sacrifice receiving the smell that's on my hands. Hands, yeah.

| Black Musique: Gossard Paroles: Vedder Album: Ten Date: 27 août 1991 Sheets of empty canvas. Untouched sheets of clay were laid spread out before me as her body once did. All five horizons revolved around her soul. As the earth to the sun. Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn. Ooh, and all I taught her was everything. Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore. And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds of what was everything. All the pictures have all been washed in black. Tattooed every day. I take a walk outside. I'm surrounded by some kids at play. Oh, I can feel their laughter. Oh, so why do I sear? Ooh, and twisted thoughts that spin around my head. I'm spinning. Oh, I'm spinning. How quick the sun can drop away. And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything. All the pictures have all been washed in black. Tattooed everything. All the love gone bad turned my world to black. Tattooed all I see. All that I am. All I'll be. Yeah. Uh huh... Uh huh... Ooh. I know someday you'll have a beautiful life. I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky but why, why, why can't it be, oh, can't it be mine? Oh... Ohh yeah oh. Do do do do do do do |

| Rearviewmirror Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 I took a drive today. Time to emancipate. I guess it was the beatings, made me wise. But I'm not about to give thanks or apologize. I couldn't breathe. Holding me down. Hand on my face. Pushed to the ground. Enmity gauged. United by fear. Forced to endure what I could not forgive. I seem to look away. The wounds in the mirror waved. It wasn't my surface. Most defiled. Head at your feet. Fool to your crown. Fist on my plate. Swallowed it down. Enmity gauged. United by fear. Tried to endure what I could not forgive. Yeah. Saw things... (x4) ...clearer. (x2) Oh, once you were in my Rearviewmirror. I gathered speed from you fucking with me. Once and for all I'm far away. Hard to believe. Finally the shades are raised. Hey, yea. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you, once you... Rearviewmirror. Saw things so much clearer once you... Oh yeah. |

| Soon Forget Ecrit par: Vedder Album: Binaural Date: 16 mai 2000 Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette. Thinks he'll get the girl he'll only get the mechanic. What's missing? He's living a day he'll soon forget. That's one more time around. The sun is going down. The moon is out but he's drunk and shouting. Putting people down. He's pissing. He's living a day he'll soon forget. Counts his money every morning. The only thing that keeps him horny. Locked in a giant house that's alarming. The townsfolk they all laugh. Sorry is the fool who trades his love for hi-rise rent. Seem the more you make equals the loneliness you get. And it's fitting. He's barley living a day he'll soon forget. That's one more time around and there is not a sound. He's lying dead clutching Benjamins. Never put the money down. He's stiffening. We're all whistling a man we'll soon forget. |

| Indifference Musique: Vedder, Gossard, Ament, McCready, Abruzzese Paroles: Vedder Album: Vs Date: 19 octobre 1993 I will light the match this morning so I won't be alone. Watch as she lies silent for soon that will be gone. Oh, I will stand arms outstretched. Pretend I'm free to roam. Oh, I will make my way through one more day in hell. How much difference does it make? How much difference does it make? I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm. Oh, I'll keep taking punches until their will grows tired. Oh, I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind. Hey, I won't change direction and I won't change my mind. How much difference does it make? Mmm, how much difference does it make? How much difference... I'll swallow poison until I grow immune. I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room. How much difference... How much difference... How much difference does it make? How much difference does it make? Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... |
