    Why were the O2 security guys taking our tickets off us instead of just tearing off the stubs? really anoyed that I didn't get to keep my ticket...

    Still, had an amazing night and have loads of great memories of the gig...

    staff were giving out tickets as people were leaving the gig, like they used to do at Wembley (I hope I don't ever have to go back to a gig at that place!)

    Oh, did anyone else notice Ed was wearing our fan badges? He had the Astoria badge, Wembley 07 and another I didn't recognise. Sooo...I threw him my one from Dunk and a Shep Bush to add to his collection! :lol:

    Fantastic gig, in terms of performance and the intensity of playing they were as good as I've ever seen them. Highlights were an unbelievable Immortality, Rats, Light Years, Insignificance, Supersonic, Footsteps, Love Reign O'er Me, Leaving Here, Porch and the Boom/Mike jam at the end of Crazy Mary.

    Of the first 12 songs, 10 were from 1994 or before, along with the 2 new ones. Really fantastic stuff. Seems like these few gigs before the release of Backspacer are allowing the band to play a lot of the old stuff. I'm sure that for the gigs after the release, we'll start seeing 7-8 new songs in place of the older stuff.

    I thought the crowd was only average. I started out near the front, but by midway through the first set was near the back, just to get a better view of things. Up the front it certainly seemed like a brilliant crowd, but from the back you could see/hear that it wasn't the best. Thought the singalong at the end of Black was pretty poor, and it seemed to me that the entire crowd only came to life during Alive. And for all those streaming out when Yellow Ledbetter started, what the hell is wrong with you?!

    Overall a brilliant gig, one of the best I've ever been at. Hopefully the band will be back sooner than Eddie said they will.

    Also, for anyone looking for a ticket, my brother picked up a spare at the end, so let me know if you need one.
    When we found the things we loved,
    They were crushed and dying in the dirt.
    We tried to pick up the pieces,
    And get away without getting hurt,
    But they caught us at the state line,
    And burned our cars in one last fight,
    And left us running burned and blind,
    Chasing something in the night.

    Seek,
    Find be yourself.
    Don't follow the herd.
    Don't repeat in spite of the encores.
    Be yourself.
    Otherwise you'll bore us.

    same when i left, i didn't get mine back, was very pissed off about that, because i like to keep all my tickets from all the gigs i've been to in a folder.

    if anyone got theirs back and doesn't reall y need it, or got a spare one, i'd be happy to have it off you. let me know


    anyway to the gig.. what can i say that hasn't really been said already, great energy from both crowd and band, and i'm sure they probably could do a better set list than that.. BUT it would not be easy, and apart from maybe adding maybe 2-3 songs i'd've like to hear it was perfect. so no complaints, i'd like to say more. but like i said its already been said.. just listen to the bootleg when it comes out.. you'll see
