    Have to say my own personal highlight of the show was Bushleaguer, the way they adapted it for Bertie Ahern and threw in stuff about the Mahon tribunal and Shannon Airport fiasco. Fair play to Ed for finding a Bertie mask, didn't think there was such a thing. Had a game of chess with Matt after the show and I asked him if they would join us in Pearl Jem on stage in Ardee tonight, his reply was simply 'No way, fuck that'! I was disappointed but I admired his honesty. Roll on their Lisdoonvarna show on the 18th.

    ooOOoo... does anyone have a spare for the show. I'm now going to be back in the area at the time. After Limerick's show I NEED another fix. Please? Anyone? I'll pay a fair price and have some pj related stuff you might be interested in!

    Limerick was great but I couldn't help thinking that they were just warming up for the big one tomorrow night...oh yes...you guys know what I'm talking about.The first of three nights of PJ in none other than Grunge's second home,often referred to as 'Ireland's Seattle'(and not just cos of the rain and drug problems),I'm talking about the one and only,the world renound, Newbridge of course. People are pretty excited about it in my humble hometown I have to say,we haven't seen this kind of excitement here since Newbridgeapalooza during the summer,headlined by The Police,U2 and Bruce Springsteen.I know Pj sounds a bit tame compared to that but people might be looking for something to take their mind off the Christmas shopping so they probably won't mind that it isn't quite showbizzy enough for Newbridge.

    Also,anyone think Pj could've got someone better than a reunited Soundgarden to support?This is fuckin Newbridge like,we have standards!
    It may be the devil or it may be the Lord
    But you're gonna have to serve somebody.

    That is absolutely amazing. I just don't know how they kept it a secret for so long. Great surprise. I'm thinking we'll have a bit of Temple of the Dog too, seeing they're all there.... Thanks for putting me up Carlos D - I owe you a pint or two! :D

    PM sent red :) of course you can have my spare :) after THAT performance the other night, it just won't be the same without ya. Of course I'm sure PJ's security will request that you're in restraints from the beginning, but I'm sure it will be worth it.

    Wow! I mean who woulda thunk that a Pearl Jam concert in IRELAND would be cancelled because of a snake infestation? :o It was nice of them to set up in the wee pub around the corner and play a couple though but after Ed's drink got spiked (redrock? :eek: :o ) it just wasn't quite the same :o

    I know,ridiculous or what...nice of them to offer to play beside my Christmas tree on Christmas morning for 12 hours though.I had to say no though,I wanted to have room to play with my toys.

    Well.. I admit it - I am ashamed too. But it's because security was soooooo tight the other night. Couldn't even get near the stage - they had me on a short leash. :mad:

    they played evenflow too fast, so the show sucked big time

    Great reviews you guys. I have to say the high point for me was dave a showing his face for that duet with Eddie on Glorified G. I mean, what a show of Christmas spirit by Eddie, so forgiving.
    I hold the pain, release me!
