    ANd someone says 'Fuck me, I love you Eddie' Eddie said 'Let me tell you a thing about romance... You should reverse those two lines... but it wouldn't work on me'

    I saw this guy after the show, he was funny. (Funnily enough, I saw him at the bar beforehand when he was texting to say he was chucking a sickie today, smart man!) He was so excited that eddie spoke to him. He reiterated his undying love for Eddie and that he would have his children if he could. Ah .... man love .... aint it sweet.

    It was powerful. Ed mentioned how he couldn't get all the awful news coming put of Japan off his mind. It was his way of processing. Brilliant.Moving. Emotional

    And ARC...oh my god, it was something I will never forget. I've never had the pleasure of seeing it live before and it was a spiritual experience. I cried so hard all my make up ran down my face.

    Sad to be going home tonight back to the states, but the last 3 nights were the best I've ever spent.

    Thank you Ed. Thank you. Thank you.

    Still not sure this wasn't a dream, an evening mixed with all sorts of emotions. Laughter as he was in good form tonight, joy, sadness, I think most of the crowd went through the lot.

    My City of Ruins, Im Open, Behind Blue eyes (not played since he was 14), I am Mine, I believe in Miracles.... and ARC, Could not keep a tear out of my eye during this song in that place it was spiritual.

    Two nights of music and stories that I will never forget, Thanks Ed you have given us Aussies a gift that will not be forgotten.
    Im not supersticious, Im just a littlesticious.

    As left last night, there was nearly some guy who was working backstage with a working on EV sticker nearly bashed some guy...

    I saw him chasing this guy and he caught him was grabbing him saying

    'Do you want to rethink what you said or am I going to have to put you to sleep... you told me to fuck off'

    The guy was crazy and the other guy had fear in his eyes.. They guy was going to absolutely smash him, I started to move towards him (hoping I didnt have to step in) He was pushing him out on the road and the guy managed to get away and the stage hand chased after him for a bit but the guy had fear written all over his face and body language. He was lucky to get away...

    I know he must have been told to fuck off, but not a great look....

    Still an amazing night....

    Last night was the cherry on top of an extremely delicious pie that I have had the chance of biting into all week... :lol: Definitely the highlight show of my week... :D

    It was an amazing set list.. My City in Ruins, Rocking in the Free World, Just Breathe, Behind Blue Eyes, the new version of Betterman and Wishlist made my heart ache and my body be covered in goosebumps...

    Whilst still on a complete high, I am at a loss to know when I am every going to be lucky enough to see him and the band again. I hope it is sooner rather than later...

    Thanks for the amazing memories Ed, it really was something completely special... every night.. something amazing and beautiful...

    Totally amazing show. Now for me a short break in the excitement before what I hope will be two amazing Perth shows we almost didn't get.

    Words are not enough to capture these shows.

    I got to hug the dude Trent who got him to play Forever young. Karma boost for the week

    And I swear Eddie saw me dancing behind the last row way at the top.

    Saw Arc loop for the first time in NYC a few years back. It just gets better.

    Was there with my sister who is visiting australia for the first time and The Who is our dad's favorite band.
    Behind blue eyes come on!!!!!

    My last show for the tour and what a way to finish!!

    Too many highlights for me. City of Ruins, I'm Open, I believe in miracles(included a story of how Ed was in Sydney when he heard that Joey Ramone had died and just went out surfing for a couple of hours singing this song to himself over and over)
    Hide you love, Behind Blues Eyes, Golden State was awesome last night. It's been great before but something about it last night went the extra yard.

    I finally had close seats(4th row) and watching Ed do Arc up close made my night.

    RITFW Just plain ROCKS!! That and Hard Sun are so good to finish with.

    Now a I have to get over my PEVD(Post Eddie Vedder Depression) :(

    Thank You Ed for 5 unforgettable nights!! :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:
    I can't go the library anymore, everyone STINKS!!

    My city of ruins was magic. So much of last night was, and I could talk about all the songs. But as City of Ruins comes on my itunes, IMO last night was better than when he sang it for Springsteen (and yes, I realise I am probably biased) I must say, I missed the choir in the background, but I think Ed was feeling it more as he dedicated it to Japan.

    One of the truly special moments of my 3 concerts and I hope for bootlegs...

    Wow! I never thought I'd see such awesome songs!!!!!!!!!!!! Over the three nights my favourites were You're True, Can't Keep (twice!!!!!!!), Driftin', My City of Ruins, Arc, Parting Ways, Immortality, Hide Your Love Away, Long Road Around The Bend, Forever Young, Crazy Mary, Wishlist (also twice) Picture In a Frame, Dead Man (I got goose bumps) etc. Eddie was so funny and really shut up those bogans last night. I love how no one chanted "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie.." with that idiot. I met/sat next to some Ten Clubers Jason and Alison on night 1, they were so nice. I got Ten C FRONT ROW tix night two (thankyou sooooooo much). Eddie smiled at me during Hard Sun and then forgot the words. These three days have been so great. I got some pictures from last night but I'm not sure if I should post them cause of the restrictions with photography and recording. Now I just have to get over the Post Show Blues. :cry:

    Behind Blue Eyes was a surprise inclusion that was amazing. The story Ed told before it was priceless.

    My City Of Ruins was as touching as it was awesome. And what can be said about Arc.

    A night of the highest highlights. Three nights I'n Sydney where you wondered how he could surpass the previous show - yet he managed to. Incredible.

    I really hope Ed decides to take many more working holidays down here.
