08/17/93 - Robert Guertin Arena: Hull, Quebec

support act: Doughboys

The arena was packed and many people got in free. The set opens with 'Go' and 'Animal.' 'Rearviewmirror' is played midway through the set, in a slow love ballad style. Most all of Ten is played with the exception of 'Release' and 'Garden.' During the third encore, with half of the lights on, a very intoxicated Ed enters the stage with a big wooden cross with a skull on each end with a candle (or a candle in the shape of a skull). Half was already gone. Someone was brought on stage to sit and hold the cross while they played just one song ... 'Indifference.'

I was at that show. Reverend Horton Heat opened. I don't remember the cross or the half-full room by the end but I do remember they encored with Baba O'Reilly.

Anyway, would love to get a recording as well.

Edit to add: Unless Soundgarden played Bob Guertin once, because I saw RRH open for somebody in that building. In any case, I'm still confident about the Baba O'Reilly part.

All the stuff I googled last night said Doughboys opened.

I just heard back from my pal who is a Pearl Jam fanatic of the largest order.

He is going to check with one possible source, but he believes that show was never taped, or subsequently released in any format, tape tree etc.

Pre-Bradm'd.

It definitely was The Doughboys opening up for PJ. The Reverend opened for Soundgarden at "The Bob" in 1994.

I remember these shows very well. Good times! After the PJ show, I drove to Toronto to catch PJ, Soundgarden, and Blues Traveler open for Neil Young at the CNE, the very next night.

Related - Pearl Jam was on Austin City Limits last weekend and it was really good. You can find the show on the Pirate Bay.

That was a great show, I had floors/gen admin tickets for that one. Looking at the ticket now - $38 for that show.(tried to take a pic but my camera sucks and its blurry) Those were the days..lol
