Absolutely awesome shot of Jeff. Have saved it of course. Cannot believe that photo, is it the perspective in the photo or did Jeff really jump that high? Fit as a malley bull, that guy and the rest of them too. Glad everyone has had such a great time and there's no whingeing about the crowd. I couldn't keep still all night.0

Glad you guys like the photo. Yeah, Jeff is just THAT high.... I was giddy as hell when I looked down and saw what I had captured. Mike and Ed add to the power of that pic....but Jeff's air is what made it.1995: Milwaukee/Summerfest 1; 1998: Indianapolis, Greenville, Knoxville; 2000: Lisbon, London 1 & 2, Detroit, Alpine Valley, Chicago; 2006: Chicago 1 & 2, Summerfest 1 & 2 (w/ Tom Petty), Sydney 1 & 3, Melbourne 1, 2 & 3; 2007: The Vic, Lollapalooza0

no i'm not going to any other shows (needed money for u2 and bdo), damn should have walked over and said hi. how stupid is the rule that you can't bring any alcohol into the arena? had to skull my drink so i could see kings of leon....LOL.The wind is blowing cold
Have we lost our way tonight?
Have we lost our hope to sorrow?
Feels like were all alone
Running further from what’s right
And there are no more heroes to follow
So what are we becoming?
Where did we go wrong?0 -
Best show so far
We got lots of gifts from the guys that night, they treated us diehards good...
Had a great rear view lower Mike's side, and knew everything that was going to happen next watching them come in and out of the backstage. Got my section to stand up and get in on all the clapping and Yeahing... I think it was definately the best crowd so far since they were at least all standing even up at the wings, although I was the only one spelling l-o-i-t-e-r-i-n-g in my area... I can't wait to see what tonight's show will bring, finally some floor tickets for a change, if anyone wants to envite me up a few rows from 17, give me a shought!I desire peace where I live

You can still get tickets on the Ticketek website for $100 (upper section right at the back though) if you really want to go.

I know what you mean. I had seats in the lower section 8 rows from the front right near Stone's side of the stage on Monday night which rocked (see my crappy photos here:http://forums.pearljam.com/showpost.php?p=3907664&postcount=108).
Had seats in the upper section on Mike's side Tuesday night, and even though they weren't as good still had a wicked night.
Upper section tonight as well, but I'm just glad to be going.
Only problem is my knees are aching from hitting the seat in front of me due to jumping around to much. Well worth it though0 -
I dont usually post on these things but had a such great time last night felt the need. Share my expierience. I've seen them in Melbourne at least once every tour they have done here. But this was by far the best yet.
K so getting there. Caught the train up and there was even people like pumped on the train. One dude sitting a couple rows up from me yells out "Who's going to Pearl Jam tonight?" at the top of his lungs to the embarrasment of his mates. I immediately put my hand up and to my surprise like half the carridge did. We all cheered, I knew I was in for a good night.
I get to the security pat down thing and I've got my iriver h340 in my pocket. The guys like whats that so I pull it out and show him and tell him it's my iriver. His just hassling the hell outta me, "why do you need that for?" I'm like cause I caught the train I like to listen to it. And I know it can be used as a recording device with the appropriate mics but I wasnt doing that. And why would I when we can get sbd's here. So after like 5 minutes of questions pretty much just going over the same thing over and over. He let's me go. As I'm walking off I hear the security lady behind me say to 2 people "These tickets were for last night" the women she was talking to replies "Oh no we totally screwed up" as she looked at her friend. I had a chuckle to myself and proceeded in thinking they were trying to pull a scam or really were just idiots. lol
I had a kick arse seat front row lower section right on the isle closest to the stage. Pretty much directly in line with the front row on the floor but on the front row in the lower section.The security sucked plan and simple. I got hassled for having my jacket on the rail in front of me. For putting my feet in the isle. I'm at the front for fudge shake where am I gonna go. Morons. Security issues aside absolutely brilliant night. Won't carp on about the show everyone has summed it up. Lots of crowd paticipation. I was singing and rocking out to every tune. Highlights: Matt's drum solo, Elderly Woman, every other song they played, eddie throwing his broken tamborine to a guy in a wheel chair in front of stage during Baba O'Riley, When Eddie dedicated Big Wave to the surfer, I looked over and the surfer guy was asleep. lol Eddies bottle of wine getting passed around amongst the front row, Eddie looking at me and giving the peace sign.
The funniest bit for me was during Indifference. The guys in the row behind me had been coming down to the front of the isle all night and getting told by the knobs to go back to their chair. But it was the last song so who cares, and I guess they knew Eddie had their backs from the night before incident. So theirs 3 knobs on the ground telling them to go back to their chair and one female comes down the isle to deal with 3 drunken jubulent blokes. They were just ignoring everything she said and kept singing along as was I. lol After a minute or so of her getting no response everyone around us is just yelling at her to leave them alone it's the last song. A older knob comes along and is getting the exact same response, now theirs 2 of them doing absolutely nothing to remedy the situation. During the chorus one of the guys is singing "how much difference does it make" with the added "It's the last song" in the security peoples faces. I was in stitches. Didnt get to sleep till 6 this morning.
Here's some photos I took, I found out my camera doesn't work to well in low light situations last night. But some turned out kinda alright.

So to sum up, great night, great set. Shit security.0 -
thankyou for posting those photos negatron, my cousin and i are in a lot of them!
we're in the front row, hes in the yellow shirt and im in the wheelchair with the brown shirt on. the guy in the wheelchair that got the tamborine was sitting right next to me. that was the greatest moment of my life during Alive and baba when ed came and stood up on the speakers. during alive he was looking right at me as i was singing along. then he did the peace sign to me and the other disabled guy. ill never forget that as long as i live.
thanx once again for putting the pics up!0 -
No worries man, glad ya had a sweet night. It was pretty hard not to, alota love in the room last night.0

I don't mean to bring down the vibe but can anyone help me figure out the crowds reaction to Ben's intro at MELB II?? have been searching for any justified reason.
By Ben I think you mean Boom? No one at all is booing him, we're just going "Boooooom"!1995: Melbourne 1
