10/26/96 - The Point Theatre: Dublin, Ireland

10 years ago today, my first PJ show. Anyone got any pics or tall tales? My own memories of the show are hazy because I was a wee bit chemically enhanced. Listening to the bootleg brings it all back though. Here's to another 10 years of PJ.

That was my first Pearl Jam gig and I was blown away.

The best opener that I could have hoped for.

When they came out, they sang Release and you could just see the outline of the band. I cried!! Ha ha.

It was absolutley amazing. Im just gutted I didn't make the Cork gig too.
People were sayin, "why would you want to see the same set twice".
Boo to them!! (Saw them 3 times this year!!).

Getting the boot of the Dublin'96 this weekend so I can't wait to hear it.
Where did you get the boot??

Does anyone have a poster from this gig??
State of love & trust and Hunger strike also rocked.

I remember Stone saying in his dorky accent, "Ok, Im gonna sing one.."

Quality is excellent for an audience recording, plenty of good singing from the Irish too!

What a fucking show....had 5 years of built up pj rage to unleash and that I did :D:D

Was so fucking sick I couldn't get to the Slane gig in 93, came home from work that day really pissed off and my next door neighbour was in chatting to me ma, and asked why I was so pissed off, told her and she turned around and said "oh is that the one in slane, I had backstage passes for it but had no-one to go with so turned them down" :eek: and my missus was there and to this day still rubs it in that I wasn't :mad:

Needless to say that the neighbour mysteriously disappeared and we soon moved house

I was trying my best to get backstage tickets as my uncle was great friends with "The saw Doctors" and they played that day. Didn't end up going at all. Boo

My mate was backstage & video taped Pearl Jam. You can see Ed walking around with Beth. Im still trying to get the tape again to record it.
He has the full show on it. WOW!!
