  • My thought since the start:
    PLEASE not Werchter!!!!

    Anywhere else is just fine :)

    And i was still wandering of the Antwerp show yesterday. Got some reactions from not-really-PJ-fans who where there as well to see them. They all told me it was one of the best concerts they had ever attended.
    You know, being a fan it's all so normal. You know who the guys in the band are and what they are like (to some extend anyway). So you know Eddie isn't so much of a talker, and you know how he can react at times... All that things, we all expect that. But i think people not really "into" PJ don't. And then this band still manages to impress every single person in the room..

    Man, I'm so unbelievably proud of this band right now!!
    And proud to be liking them for so long..

    Thank you Pearl Jam!

  • hey everybody

    indeed i can agree with everyone, it was amazing!

    i only have one problem. i bought the dark blue tour t-shirt in size xl, but when i came home i saw i got an L. now, is there someone who has an XL and want to change with me? ik want to pay the shipping costs or stop and come after the shirt.

    thx!

    Hihi, imagine....... PJ in Limburg......

    But trust me, you don't want to see them in the Ethias Arena. The sound and accoustic couldn't be worse...

    Nice to see some "Limburgers" on here though! Hail hail the limburgians :) (oh and al the other belgians before i get into trouble here.. :) )

  • cool to hear it was...
    i had the impression we really had a very cool show, but i couldn't compare because it was my first one...
    can't wait to see them in Paris in Vienna... can't believe it's going to be better, though with these guys you never know
    don't let the sun go down on your grievances...

  • Why all the hate for Werchter? I went this past year and had a blast. I would love to see PJ there next year.

    Yeah we would have a greatest hits setlist but it's still a great festival. It is probably a lot easier for bands to play a festival than stand-alone shows becuase someone else does all the planning and leg work- they simply show up and play.
    The less you know, the more you believe.

    Because of the non-PJ audience you'll get.
    Because of the 12-hour wait you would have to do to be front row.

    But other than that, I've been going to Werchter since 2000 (yes 2000 :() and I'd love to see PJ there. Because... have you seen the Reading show from last week? That was so much more than "just a festival show", my friends.

    Finaly I can drop my photos inhere as well :)
    First post inhere - so needed to wait a little to have permission.

    http://www.justdimi.nl
    or http://www.myspace.com/justdimi for my photos...of the antwerp gig.

    I have seen them few times before but never this close to where I live,so had to be there ofcourse. I am from the Netherlands but antwerp is only 25 km away so I chooce antwerp for 2 reasons - smaller venue and closer to home.
    And I actualy hoped a bit for special treatment in Belgium because they never played there (not with eddy - once pukkelpop Neil young and the Band but is not the same ;)).
    And a special treatment it was, not the 4 hours that where asked for on the shirt they throw on the stage, and also not the 6 hours we should must have had like eddy said, but we got hunger strike :)

    I had a great night, and hope to have it again in less than 2 weeks because I was lucky enough to use my 10C membership to got tickets for BERN :)
    ( I tried others before bern but it all seemed to sold out in few minutes so better BERN than nothing ;)..

    Grtz Justdimi

    Hey... those are some damn good photos... what kind of Camera are you using?
  • Hi guys (and girls)

    Just to say, thanks to Justdimi... great photos !!! Cool guy ;)

    What a gig... I can't go down on eart since the end of the show.....15 year of waiting, it's bit long.....

    Thanks to PJ for the show, thanks to stay the same, thanks to be what you're...

    I can't discribe what i feel...just a little frustration : that's too short !!! and...of course... watching the gig that you wait for 15 years and be seated...it's not realy smart.......next time, I'll be into the pit and jump around !!!
