Here is my Verona and Milan album. Ive got more pics from Milan, and also better ones due to rain in Verona and afraid my camera will get wet...anyways, when I managed to take it out and take pics, they didnt turn out well...and I got so late in town plus was so tired and didnt take any pics before or after the show :( and this was my dream, seeing them in Verona...
anyways, take a look and enjoy

A ha... now I know who you are - we met you.... is it okay if I use a couple of your photos of the datch forum for my blog when I eventually do it?
Sure. you can use 'em, no problem. I like your pics too Or is that the other Scot? lol
I cant believe you remember, esp the next day in Milan when I saw the Boston guy and you 2 crazy Scotsmen and then I heard the swimming in the fountain story...too funny! Is your kilt still wet?
And nice photos by the way... I thought I'd said that - you are like me - you looks so cheery and excited in every photo....
Haha, yes, so true. We are totally crazy, and I love it.
In Verona I couldnt stop shaking and my mind was going crazy>>>everything was SO overwhelming: fans, the city, the band...omg!
In Milan I got a lil better but first I got a free t-shirt, lol, too funny, and then I got 10c ticket cause of the awesome Aussie guy who had an extra. Sold my GA to a scapler (not proud of it) but there was no time to think.
this weekend was too good, and Im so excited for the next one. Four more shows, Im not sure if Im gonna be able to handle it. haha. I promise to take lots of pics
EDIT: Ok, now i know who is who. I thought those pics are I Scot ID's, but its you, haha. OK. so I def need some of those Verona pics for my collection cause I dont have much pics from that nite Fair trade. See you in Prague.
I'm the big scot... fraser is the little one... he had the wet kilt.... and yes it's still wet.....
We are both pretty run down - every muscle is sore from pits, dodgy beds... hangovers... lack of sleep... and too much travelling... We talk about burning the candle at both ends in scotland, but with work and a pearl jam summer, i've just taken a blow torch to the whole candle.

My pictures actually come with a copyright statement:
Yeah milan was phenominal... both the crowd and the band were electric....
What a weekend!!!! I'm in work trying to recover now....
It's hard even trying to think about anything else after the amazing things we've seen over the last few weeks. His ass is burned into my memory forever.
Where abouts were you in the arena? My girlfriend and I got front row Stone's side. Eddie climbed the speaker stack during Alive right in front of us! Got some great photos.

We were pretty much the same place but at mike's side - it was really really rough....

You got the photos online?
Naomi took them on her camera but she can't upload them until she picks up some stuff from the house at uni. They'll be up soon though i think! Got some great shots.
It wasn't so rough on our side. The only time we felt a bit pushed was during Corduroy.

Milan... unforgettable night... like 6 years ago... but even more, if it is possible. Emotionally intense, full of love, energetic, powerfull... I would have liked for it to be endless... but time goes by so fast when you are enjoying it... It was like to have friends over... Wasn't able to get good pics because I was way back but those feelings... what better than that to remind this gig. They could never be cancelled nor broken nor wasted away... just inside, right there... Thanx P.J., thanx to everyone in the crowd. And tks Eddie for stopping by to shake our hands bf leaving the Forum: just wanted to say thankful words but when something like that happens, you never get phrases coming to mind... Pls, just don't wait another "6 years" b/f coming back: I got to meet friends I hadnt' seen in years... wouldn't you like to have me waiting that long to see them again...
I won't be able to attend the Turin shows (no days off and no that much money) thus I wait your posting...
I WAS THERE! I WAS THERE! AND I WILL NEVER FORGET IT!
on Black, i almost had tears...and on Rockin', i was destroying the seat cause of the jumps.. Ed was great, and Mike, and Matt, too! his solo was stupendous...and i saw Ed crying...fuck! Ed was crying!! it is unforgettable. I have no words to describe how i felt!
i love them!
I want go to Torinooooo!
[I know i was born and that i'll die
the in between is mine... i am mine]

Wait, when did Ed cry? I saw Jill cry during 'Picture in a Frame' but don't remember seeing any tears from Ed.

grazie mille a tutti milanisti/italiani that made this incredible night possible.............the only thing that bothers me is that i had not enough memory in my camera to make some videos..........i would have died for the last bit of black with the whole stadium clapping their hands and eddie almost crying.............if anyone has that on video please let us know :O))..........since buying the 2000 milan show i wanted to see them live there and it was like they were playing in their homestadium the crowd was so energetic and enthusiastic.........it was a real footballcrowd......... and the setlist.........man of the hour, black, crazy mary, daugther, faithful.........i still can't believe it............thanks again !!!!!!!!!!!
ps: also if anyone has a link with a review in a italian newspaper please let me know i didn't find anything in the stampa and corriere della sera which i guess are the two milan newspaper that would have had some article..........

eddie was crying at the end of black when the audience go on and on and on and on clapping the hands and singing.
Nice to hear that an as emotional version was played elsewhere.
I for once thought we were the only lucky ones :-)
Check out the Antwerp reviews on Black, I can tell you...
IN-CRE-DI-BLE
This must ne one of the greatest bands ever:
What other artist did you see cry because of the emotional-loaded feeling the band and crowd took care of?
Unforgettable...
i am an italian living in switzerland. went to the show in bern.
reading this, i can't believe what i missed due to exams. i feel like shit.
goddamn... i'd give anything to go back and fuck those exams. anything to be there while they're playing black. oh my.
thanks for the impressions.

Hey! Ross, right? Martin here, we were in the Metro and whatnot back home together with Dave and Else (hope that's spelled correctly Who here is Dave from .be? haha.. Great meeting you people. That show was an unforgettable experience, best damn show I've ever been to. My right side still hurts from the insane crowd.
Berlin in 4 days time. Can't wait but it'll be over too soon :( Next time they play Milan I'm fking there!
Hello everyone who was in Forum sunday night!
Yes, it was great, just like in 2000, and also in 1996...
My God, TEN years ago my firs show of Pearl Jam!!! I was 17, i love pearl jam since i was 15, now i'm 27!
Just a question: where was Jill?
For the ones who were in the show at the forum in 1996, remember the start of the show? before the opening band, Eddie came on stage to play alone "where the kids are alright". I was near to him, near to the stage and i was without words seeing so near my favourite singer... it was like a present for us, for all the people who was there that night.
I would like to thanks everyone that was there.
Sorry for my notverygood english!

Did they play one right into the other or was there a break?
Looks like a great Milan show, again.
I'll ride the wave where it takes me...

Hey man, did you enjoy Milan? Last time i saw you guys was just before we went into the arena and Fraser was showing everyone his ass. Good times.
Yeah milan was phenominal... both the crowd and the band were electric....

Scary thought!!!
And where are they, may I ask?? Would love to see them!

Yes, unforgettable show and seeing Ed crying is unforgettable... I couldn't think it could ever happen.

I'll try and get round to doing the blog.... but it's likely to be after the berlin gig before I sit on my arse for more than 5 minutes.
