    Magnificent return to NZ for the boys, 11 years waiting and what a night! The crowd was unbelievable with two reviews saying 32,000-45,000! Ben Harper set had to be the best of the tour so far with three oldies thrown in.

    Daughter was a surprise and a bloody good one. Ed and the boys were on fire with Ed saying all the right things including dedicating Faithful to all the Kiwis. Ed took Doom Pony's Black banner up on stage. The set list was all over the show but it worked brilliantly.

    Not sure I've heard a crowd singing so much of Betterman on any boots, that was magic. Ed seemed to drop a song from the final encore after The Fixer but seemed more a momentum thing than because the lights were on as reviews suggest, they always turn the lights on for RITFW & YLB.

    Christchurch next , hopefully and epic set to end the tour!!

    Here is gig review from http://www.stuff.co.nz

    http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/mu ... n-Auckland

    Amazing concert, this only being my 4th concert, I was on the barrier in front of Mike the whole time :D

    One of the guitar tech's was tall guy in a red shirt with tattoo's mon his legs ? Anyone tell me who this was ???

    As I was really keen to get a guitar pick, I kept asking him but he pretended did not to hear me, saw him later after concert handling some lady 15 of Mike's guitar picks, kinda bummed me out big time as I only wanted one :x

    Oh well, can't win them all

    What a night. Head's a bit hazy due to post concert drinks... but my aching ribs tell me I had fun!

    Sweet setlist and as someone said it flowed perfectly. Set started while it was still light which was weird and over on Stone's side it was a little ..umm.. uncomfortable let's say for the first 5 or so songs :? but after that the night was ours to enjoy.

    Grievance, Hail Hail and Just Breathe were highlights for me aswell as getting to hear Hold On. Even Betterman made sense with a crowd that size :roll: yay for doompony even without a nod from Ed

    Roll on Christchurch...and Once :D

    You guys got Betterman, I'm envious.
    They would've played it in Sydney but Ed was ill.

    Does anyone have the entire video of Black? I'm so happy they played it. Did Mr Snuggleton make it to the stage?

    So it's real quiet in NZ today eh! A few sore heads about I guess. I thought I'd take the opportunity to ask Doompony if she'd like to recruit for being the official chief song requester for all Euro dates? :D I'm sure requester isn't actually a word though :lol: Can I get Sometimes to open on the first UK date please!! Hope you got a great night, you must be made up :mrgreen:

    Im still pretty hungover so ill keep this short

    This was a great concert. Daughter worked really well as opener and they didnt waste any time after that. Pity ed had to stop twice to tell stones side to calm down. Mikes side was squashy but not violent like stones side.

    Hold On was terrific and the Neil Appearance was nice but it was Love Reign O'er Me which made my night.... they friggin nailed it.

    Cant wait to see what they pull out in christchurch tomorrow. Im suprised they have not played supersonic yet on the aus/nz tour.
