    Hurt was AMAZING. Can't believe how good the crowd were - took until the second set for someone to yell a request, & thank you because it was Dead Man! I'm impressed Melbourne. Great to hear YGTHYLA, Dont be Shy & Golden State. Got row M seats which weren't too bad. Great night, Eddie was on fire!
    Take me for a ride before we leave...

    Wow! Words cant describe how good this show was. His voice is in fine form, better than I expected. When he opened with Dont Be Shy it was all I could do not to cry! The song I really wanted to hear him open with and he did just that, not to mention You've Got to Hide Your Love Away later on in the set, No Ceiling and Immortality! He must have known I was there. :D I walked away really happy with the concert, can't wait for tonight to see what Ten Club tickets we have. Hopefully the machine will work and we'll get Arc and some other great songs. It would be great to hear Man of the Hour as well. ;) Really looking forward to tonight's concert, bring it on Ed!! And thank you so much for last night.

    WTF Jimmy Barnes was on stage? Well that's just weird and wrong.
    My eyes were fixed on Ed so I dint notice anyone else on stage.
    More back stage passes for friday than any other show tonight so its going to rock on afterwards
    For those lucky enough to be backstage - Ed did say he had a lot of friends in the crowd and friday he would
    Really drink or something to that effect.
    Ed want sure of lyrics for eat pray love song and was looking around onstage and asking the crew for help..
    Someone yelled out 'google it' funny stuff, Ed laughed threw stuff around and said
    FUCK it ill just try and remember, afterall its my fucking song!
    Crowd were awesome only at one point I heard a few requests, rest of the night was just respecting the music
    And going crazy with appreciation after each song.
    Video cameras were around..pete pulled one person up on it..not sure if anything will surface...

    An article about Eddie talking about city council on the show:

    “I think lets all write “Authority”… I know that’s a good word and we’ll join another easier one… so we’ve got “authority” now write on top ‘f***’,” he said.

    :lol: Sesame Street Eddie's way.

    amazing show, loved hearing sometimes and seeing porch and immortality performed solo. Performing hard sun and better days with the track over the top just topped it off completely. What a genius, and what a voice. Glad to hear him mention the band will be going "back to work" soon. After the release of his solo album...excited
