    In Brisbane in 2009 it was just a quick glance inside my bag by some dude. I could've snuck in anything!

    Hmmm, so the security hasn't actually been that strict? Mind you really can't risk the chance of having my camera taken off me or getting kicked out of course.

    The security for an Eddie Vedder Solo show will probably be quite different than a Pearl Jam show. Being a much smaller audience I'm guessing they will have more time to do a proper search. I'm not taking my camera with me but my new phone has a good one .. ;)

    I went to greenday in 04 at Acer Arena, and there was a reasonably good looking girl patting people down at the door. SO me being me, looking for a cheap thrill lined up at her 'girls only line' and then got directed to some bloke.

    Ah right, of course. I didn't register you were talking about PJ shows not EV. Yeah I'm not going to risk it at all, I mean I might try a pic with my phone but they usually work out so crap I should just not worry about it & enjoy the show. I'm probably going to be in absolute la-la land anyway so over the moon & happy etc!! :lol:

    From what I've heard from some of the US shows, I wouldn't take a camera. Not worth the hassle.

    And I sure as hell won't be standing to applaud after every song. The shows are in theatres for a reason. And I don't want to look like a moron.

    Tours getting closer now, hope all those in Brisbane enjoy the first run.
    Come to send, not condescend...

    I went to a couple of Eddie's solo shows in the US and security were walking up and down the aisles telling people off for using their cameras and phones (even without a flash)... I wont bother taking my camera to the aussie ones...

    I remember at Brisbane 09 a security guy kept telling ppl to stop recording....
  • I've NEVER seen security at QPAC....

    But then again, EV will be bringing his own security - and you don't wanna pi$$ TINY off! O_O

    Standing ovations are pretty common in the theatre. I probably wouldn't necessarily stand after every song, but I don't know if I could stop myself standing after anything particularly moving...

    Hmmm... was just thinking that it's time for the 10 club to send me another email. The email I got just after I purchased the tickets said another email would be sent one week before the tour with details of times, where to pick up 10c tickets etc.

    Did someone say pre-Brissie drinks????? :D
    Before which show? And where? (and can I come?? :oops: )

    There was initial enthusiasm for drinks before and after shows 1 and 2 at The Fox in south brisbane (a block from the venue). Now that there's a week to go maybe we'll get a few more takers.

    This stand up/ sit down debate seems to have gotten people fired up. Let's just say we're all there to enjoy the show, we all love Ed, and leave it at that... :roll:
