Yes. Themes are super important.

Depends on the kind of "entertainment" you're going for. Some would say if you want to get "entertained", go watch a movie. Concerts should be something else. There should be music, art, passion, improvisation, spontaineity involved. And having a recurring theme often kill that. U2 kinda mastered the right balance between theme and passion in the 90s but have since then have gone a bit over the top with the theme part of it and now you rarely feel the urge to see more than one or two shows on the same tour because they're all mostly the same, whereas with Pearl Jam and few other bands you're guaranteed to see a 90% different show every night. As I said, it depends on what you're looking for.

Setlists are another topic.

yes they are. U2 realizes that, as do most stadium filling acts.

Pearl Jam fills stadiums. Themes are not important. They are the death of spontaneity. My opinion. I enjoy both types of shows. But nothing compares to having absolutely zero idea of what song will be played next. Especially when any song ,no matter how much of a deep cut, is off the table.
