Thanks for the review, Stankratz.
As for balcony fall reflecting bad on the band, you can say it as concert was siick, people crazy, was wild, people crowd surfing, falling from balconies, sheet, man, Pearl Jam rocks.
I sure hope guy is alive, otherwise, me - hell.

Just like that crazy bastard.

Great gig thought the lads were on top form for the first gig of the tour.

Highlights for me were Just Breathe, Nothingman, Once, Better Man actually the whole set

Just Breathe is on the way to becoming a live legend.

Of The Earth sounded very good if it did seem to go on for a bit but that will be sorted over the tour and in the studio.

Anyone going to Belfast tonight. Enjoy

Cowboy Song??? :shock:

Great show, very rocking! It never really let up with the exception of Nothing Man (amazing) and Just Breathe. Porch sounded as if it was on steroids, the rest of the band didn't let up they kept ripping through the riff as Mike shredded like hell! Absolutely excellent version! I couldn't believe it when Ed says 'now it's time to.... KICK OUT THE JAMS!' twas sweet! The whole crowd were amazing, very energetic and between encores kept singing and chanting and shouting.

New song is pretty cool, couldn't really make out the lyrics from where I was but it rocked, had lots of different riffs that grooved and sounded more Ten - Vs. style riffing than most of their more recent rockers. It also had a long, rocking solo!

I got a full length video of 'Of The Earth' on my phone. I'll get it up on Youtube when I have a chance.

- just had a look at the video there. Surprisingly good sound quality. Can't wait to show you all

yea!!!! Its about time we get some new PJ with a lonngggg ROCKIN' solo...you can see why it didn't fit on Avocado (besides being better than most of it straight up!)


bring on Nijmegen and Berlin!

Crowd surfing at least 20 of them made it to the pit. Security on tight in front of EV for his protection. EV left the stage and ran to the left side but the crowd pushed thru the barricades and we | think we scared the shit out of him. Dublin crowds went crazy over Given to Fly even before they all got shit faced.

Not to sound too negative, but isn't this setlist quite "safe" compared to the East-US sets we saw earlier this year? 26-28 songs is a great length - but too standard songs imo. Although I see some feckin cool rarities.

(Just looking f.ex at the Boston show you see songs like push me, pull me, smile, soldier of love, reign o'me, pilate, sad, red mosquito, rival, crown of thorns etc etc... )

hope it changes in Berlin

Balcony guy (some) news. He is being treated in the hospital.

Irish Al

My mate was sittin just by that dude and my mate said he definitely jumped of his own accord!

I have to say that amongst is my fab backspacer tune and it was great to see it live but unthought is definitely the standout live track from B/S...amazing!

Also if alive was ever left off a setlist of a gig I was at I wouldn't be disappointed but last night was THE best version of alive I've ever seen, the energy between te ban and crowd was stunning

yet again we get a rare treat in Dublin!

PureandEasy

I'm liking the set list

My prayers go out to the guy who fell/jumped??, I hope he's ok, please let us know

Thanks!

Without doubt the most amazing night of my PJ life. First of all got so close- Ten.C 3rd row just in front of Mike, surrounded by ladies, "hi" to Kim (US) Syl (Holland) and Eva (Denmark) and another Dutch girl, sorry cannot rem name).We all had a blast, really happy people up there.
Behind us was pretty hectic but we were all surprisingly comfortable till almost the end.
The first chords of "Long Road", what a moment!!!!
Great to be the first to hear the new song "Of the Earth", sounded really good, about 10 minutes long, good tempo changes and improv.
Been to great shows in Dublin 2000, and Paris, Holland and London but this was out of this world.
Thanks Eva for being up there high in the Ten/C queue and Syl for tempting me to stay up front and Kim.

so jealous you heard Long Road....cool to get "of the earth" and a cover of Arms Aloft too

Overall a superb show. Sound was fantastic where I was (mid-floor). Long Road was the 4th different opener for the last four Dublin shows, and beautiful. Great change of pace into Once. The main set was fantastic, with Down, Not For You and Nothingman real highlights. Of The Earth made a brilliant first impression, looking forward to hearing that on the boot. Vitalogy featured quite heavily, but unfortunately no No Code if I'm remembering correctly. We also got all of the Backspacer songs that I personally wanted to hear - Unthought Known, Got Some, Amongst The Waves and Just Breathe. Loved the little homage to Thin Lizzy in YL.

Crowd was good, but not as good as '06. I'd make a comment about parts of the balcony sitting down all night, but given that somebody fell from the balcony, probably better not to.

Lastly, the poster is cracking. Here's hoping for some No Code tonight.

Sounds/looks like a great night for all of you lucky to attend. Of The Earth sounds very Yield to me ...just to add another opinion to the bunch! Yield with a Ten-jam sensibility. Bring on the rest of this vicarious tour .
