TFT Notes: Ed talks about how it was such a beautiful day in Boston and a beatiful day for them and his daughter whose "back home in another city." He then mentions that their thoughts turn toward those put in a dire situation overseas and plays a hardened version of "Garden," mentioning its the worst case scenario for those troops. Before "Elderly Woman...", Ed says the song used to be so easy to play but they kept "fucking it up." Ed seems pleased with the crowd's vocals and lets them finish pieces of the tune, much like he did with "Black," "Alive," and "Smile." Ed says Boston has been so good to them that he'd like to try playing a song they've yet to play live and they premiere "Parachutes"! Ed laughs mid-song when he clearly stumbles over the words, but presses on. During a frenzied "Alive," he knocks over his mic stand and falls to the floor. When he stands up, his earpiece comes loose and Ed wildly swings it onstage. Before "Smile," he spots a small girl in the crowd that he calls up on stage where she presents him with some flowers. He kisses and hugs her and plays her request, "Smile." Before "Indifference," Ed discusses how the proceeds for the show are going to benefit a charity for homeless children in the city and how a great man and his cohorts promised they'd match the donation. He seems moved to know such a man "with intelligence and heart," and says you may have heard of him since his name is Theo Epstein (young General Manager of the Boston Red Sox and massive PJ fan)". The crowd goes bananas. After years of fans begging the band to play "Leash", it's played to a huge roar, with the crowd signing loudly along. Before "Rockin in the Free World," a man in a brown hooded PJ sweatshirt and blue PJ ballcap comes out to join them for the set. He jams with the band and is clearly into the set. He whips his hat into the crowd, then his thick mullet wig, and it's revealed to be Theo Epstein himself! The Boston fans go wild and chant "Theo-Theo!" Ed puts on a Terry Francona (Red Sox Manager) Red Sox jersey and they play "Yellow Ledbetter". Mike ends the song with a fiery, patriotic version of the "Star Spangled Banner."
