I believe in miracles.
I believe in a better world for me and you.

Thx for this song of The Ramones.
One of the best rock'n roll show I never seen. Great songs and good wine for Eddie

Ms. Haiku

I enjoyed reading all of the posts of this thread, fanviews and otherwise. Instead of a journal, it's like a campfire dialogue. Those who got to hear Dirty Frank in France . . . Congratulations! I'm jealous

The show wasn't sold out? I'm suprised...I think this setlist and East Rutherford 2 are the 2 best setlists so far this tour

Speaking as someone who was at East R II, I would have to agree....Fatal? Fucking awesome

Agree To Disagree

Ventilation was nil at the Dome.
It was hotter than a witch's tit.

I think I exchanged more bodily fluids with more people in two 1/2 hours in comparison with the rest of my lifetime.
I think I can throw away the clothes I wore Saturday night.

I apologise to everyone I bothered with my bag and hips.

Thanks to the gentlemen from security who gave us water.

What?
The show?
Oh yeah.
Stellar.

Thanks, Pearl Jam.
It was really worth the 6 year wait.
See you at Bercy.

Sidenote:
I think most of the fanviews are only arriving now because people were traveling.
My train was 3 hrs late..
Gotta love the High Speed Train.
But we got a free lunch. To be consumed before 18 June 2008.

Note for Eddie:
Your French really is merde. But it was a wonderful effort on your behalf.
If you need a tutor, I can help you with that 1/2 assed pronounciation of yours.

and I'm not just talking PJ (well, i've only been to one other PJ gig!!). It was phenomenal, fantastic setlist, fantastic atmosphere, and I think the venue was pretty good as well (a little warm and rowdy but good nonetheless!!!). They played fatal and quite a few songs off no code and vitology which they haven't really dione this tour. The venue was tight and the le marseilleaise seem to love they're pearl jam. Some might say that the crowd was a bit wild, a whole lot of crazy moshing and crowd surfing, but i think it gave the feel of a really great PJ show from say 10 or so years ago. Meet some great people and had a great night. All in all fantastique!!! Can't wait for Paris tomoro!!! Au revoir!!!!

I agree me also but this is a setlist too remember!

Hi,

This was my 1st PJ gig... what a gig !
Waooouuuuuuuuuuuwwwwwwww
I've spent 3/4 of the gig to move & sing and my mind was elsewhere, in the middle of the stars probably...

2.5h of pure energy

The crowd was very hot. the versions were brillliant, the sound of every musician was great which is sooo important.

My favorite moments : Long road as an opener (thrilling), evenflow (mike's solo behind his head : incredible !!), alive, porch 'extended version, Black, given to fly

This setlist was for "purists". I really enjoyed it.
The only thing just a bit disappointing was that for my 1st gig I would have loved to hear other classics or favs of mine like : I got shit, spin the black circle, i am mine, not for you, save you, nothing as it seems...

But I am going to bercy tonight !
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!

So it could be perfect because they will probably do another setlist with many of these and I will be able to hear some favs live.
And you know, they don't play France every year like Usa...

It was worth the wait, anyway...

Wow!! I got home last night and just crashed out!

The gig was amazing. I can safely say that it beat Astoria hands down. The set list was amazing, the crowd was amazing, the security were amazing - so nice and friendly.

Interesting point on the set up of the barriers. They put barriers up in a U shape which was nice. I was six rows back on the barrier Stone's side and it was nice to be able to be in the pit but still on the barrier. This made it much safer while still being able to go competely wild!

I knew from the moment they opened with Long Road that it was going to be a very special show. So many highlights of the night for me that it's impossible to write here every emotion and thought I have from Saturday. All I will say is that they performed the best version of Black I have ever heard. We were all singing along so much at the end that they started playing the instrumental bit again!

Such a special band, with equally special fans. To everyone I met in Marseille, you all rocked!!

I hope to see many of you again in Italy.

EVERYONE buy the BOOT!!!!!!

I normally wouldn't post on a fanview thread for a show i wasn't at, but that is easily the best setlist I have ever seen from Pearl Jam. It pretty much lists the top 10 songs I'd wanna hear at a Pearl Jam gig. I only hope Vienna has half those songs.

Wow, I have so many boots now that I didn't feel the need to buy any new ones (except for the shows I go to obviously), but I'm fairly certain I'll buy this one. It must of been amazing.

WELL SAID!!!
That's what i WISH FOR US TODAY:)

Absolutely incredible, best gig for me so far with an AWESOME setlist. Just when we thought they couldn't keep producing dream songs...they kept them coming. Highlights for me were "Whipping" "Glorified G" "Satan's Bed" "Off he Goes" AND "Fatal" (!!)

Crowd a bit rough in the middle but very nice atmosphere on Mike's side at the front and actually a great venue too, intimate and great sound.

Also thanks to all of you staying at the New Hotel Select - we had a fantastic time and you are a great bunch. A special big THANK YOU to Sid - if you're reading this, what can I say....I really appreciate what you did for me (you know what I'm talking about..)

Sid, Blake, Paolo and Marga - hope you enjoy Paris as much as Marseille!

A bientot!
