    I've seen Pj 6 times in Germany over the years and the first 3 or 4 songs last year were pretty rough were I was standing (about 6th or 7th row on Mike's side). Personally, I don't remember it to be much worse than some moments in any of the other shows. I don't want to say it wasn't bad. It was. But not much worse than I expect almost any GA show to be.
    I don't remember being scared. Just IMMENSELY annoyed. But I'm a guy and can easily see how some of the girls that were standing in that general area might have been scared to death. But again. I've seen that before and have seen even worse at other band's shows.
    Still that doesn't make it ANY better. I still don't know why they didn't divide the place up into sections as in 06. With that, even at rough moments, you don't necessarily have the feeling of 15000 people pushing and I firmly believe that this helps a lot with preventing people from panicking.

    I was also on Mikes side, 5th row or something like that. I'm used to that pressure but the woman in front of me... I was really sad for her. I remember her expression and it was not a good one. And then there was this "gentleman" right before me, trying to protect his girlfriend by pushing against my stomach to the other side to make more room. I mean... wtf. :?
    I want to enjoy the music and don't fight to keep on my feet :lol: That's the time when I start jumping some rows back ;)
    Well, hope we all learned from this experience and have a great time this year.

    I'm so excited, 1 month and 3 weeks to go....

    Yeah I'm excited, too :)
    I really can't wait, but on the other hand, it's good that the concert is still some weeks ahead instead of that it's already finished :D

    Yes, the same here. Berlin is unfortunately the only show I'm attending and the end will be very sad ;)

    Maybe thats just German people in general, but then again what % of fans were actually from Germany even. Lot's of rude Italians too.

    well, due to the lack of concerts last year (no italy tour date), guys from all over europe would try to go to that 1 concert that is the closest.

    berlin09 was a really wild concert. i loved it. but wild nonetheless. ppl have posted that the wildness has started even before the concert started.

    i hope someone from the band or the management, gets input from fans and they would make the concert experience worlds better than last year.

    maybe the first step would be to separate 10c from GA.

    Yep, like they did in 2006 if I remember correctly.

    The one thing I really hope for this year is "Release" opening the show, after finally hearing it live last year in London. Although it won't be dark at that point, I still feel the Wuhlheide would be the perfect spot for that song :geek:.
