There were about 50,000 at Melbourne the other night, 26,000 in the GA area.

Yep, that was a huge show. Stagging with the roof closed too.

Nice to think I was a part of it, 2nd row from front too!

didnt Lolla 07 have 80,000 there plus 10,000s of people watching online?

Same could be said for Reading Festical in '06. Think tickets are 80-85k, was broadcast live on TV in the UK and also live on the internet

My first PJ show was in San Fran 1995- and there were over 50k - Guess who was front row center? I was 14 years old I believe. The pits back in those days were about half the size of a football field- they were killer! I just hung on to the rail as the madness broke out behind me!
That was my favorite show of all time! Drove out about 8 hours slept in the car for about 4 hours and then made it the front of the line the next day (abt 7am- show started around 4or something) Then drove right back home another 8hrs..... I have my brother to thank for that crazy experience ..... oh yeah did I mentioned Bad Religion opened up for them! And that ed only performed 7 songs- Yup my favorite PJ show of all time!

sorry i went off the topic a little there, but it was like 55k... hope I was able to help

I was there too and also on the rail. 1st concert. NeilJam was badass even if not very much Ed.

That's cool! Yeah - that was my first show and to this date it remains my favorite show of all time- Maybe because it was my first experience. I was a kid and scared as hell! Did you take any pictures? I have a few. I didn't like the whole Neil Jam thing, but hung out either way. I was hoping Ed would come back, but just never happened. That was one great show!

For some reason I thought they played The Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA (which holds over 100,000) but apparently they have not, not yet anyway.
