    Awesome show - lousy logistics. Ticket lines was almost non-moving for quite some time, and when we finally got the ticket, we were sent away to some containerarea to lock in my backpack. Even, as it turned out, that there was loads of lockers in the venue. 

    But awesome show. Brought a friend for his first ever show, and he was wishing for Even Flow. So the eight minutes version really hit home. Hope you guys have a great show tonight. Ill be back for the Berlin concert!

    Amsterdam, Niger or Amsterdam, Nebraska? Thought I was in the Netherlands yesterday.
    Good first show of the tour. Great energy and you can never go wrong with 4 Yield songs in the first 9. Hope they mix it up some more tonight. And please organize the 10c ticket line better tonight :|, having to wait almost an hour (and people with a beginning of the alphabet last name even longer) is just too long. 
    Yes that's what made it a bit of a let down. My surname starts with a B and why on earth picking those envelopes by hand? Seriously! We were at least in the queue over an hour and when we finally were at the doors we were looking at a big black curtain all around instead of the stage. View was minimal. So we moved after half the set a bit to the centre but it was still too crowded. After being a huge PJ fan and have attented many many shows of them and Ed's was this not well arranged. I'd rather buy regulier tickets then if this is in the future the way the card distribution goes.

    I'm a little surprised they didn't roll out the new single at this show.

    Wish I could remember the name of it...

    Can't deny that would be a logical thing to do.

    Pretty disappointed how the 10c Ticketing/entry was organized. Waited in line for over one hour and after all didnt make it in the Pit. Does anyone know how they organize the 10c pit areas for this tour? In 2014 the 10c entrance leads you directly to the pit (San Siro & Vienna), so i thought it will be the same this time. Finally ended up somewhere on the left side of the "fully booked" main floor. Would be pretty cool if they inform fans in advance how all that works, otherwise i dont see any advantage of buying 10c tickets..

    Hi there - What time did you enter the Arena? Ten club members were lining up the night before on both nights and the doors opened at 6  PM. I had seats on Night 1 and was standing watching as the doors were opened. As ever, it was all early entry for 10C members. 
    Main GA doors opened at 6.30 I think? Maybe you ended up in line behind the main GA people who didn't have early entry wristbands?

    Thanks for your message!!! When i got my tickets it was about 7:15 and when i entered the whole GA was already packed. I thought if you have 10C Tickets that you would be able to make it in the pit no matter what time you enter.. But maybe they changed that from last tour - or that was only the case in Milano & Vienna. I‘ll be early for the Barcelona show then.. :)

    Good idea - I don't think there is a reserved area especially for 10c at Barcelona - just early entry so to get close best to get there as early as you can make it - or want to give up your time for!!! Barcelona is such a beautiful city isn't it?! Would be a bit of a shame to spend all day outside an arena waiting - but I totally get why people do. I've not done that since Copenhagen in 07...  Enjoy either way!

    Sad. That was the only reason why i get member tickets. No way i‘ll hang out in front of the arena all day long when i spent hundreds of € for flights and accomodations.
    I‘ll be enjoying some tapas, cold beers and a refreshing breeze at the beach instead.. :)

    TenC tickets are nowadays at Amsterdam for 3200 members sold. So no front row just first in line to get any. Most people who had Ams as first choice with GA got it. 
    In 2014 there wasn’t any special front row section either. 
    So if your late then it’s almost not possible to get upfront. 
    But it was so crowded. It was madness but also fucking chill for the band. They got so much energy and vibes from the crowd who was picked up like sardines.

    Great show! Long Road opener, Red Mosquito, Fuckin up & no RITFW/YLB ending =)

    Only downside was poor 10c ticket collection (endless line...), no pit section and GA was way to crowded!

    The band seems to be in a great shape.
    Compared to the 2014 shows, Eddie’s voice is way 
    better...and he has not fucked up his knee this time.
    I was in the floor and the public was great. As always in the Ziggy dome, the sound was awesome.
    The setlist was maybe a little too conventional. Setting aside long road, red mosquito and down, the setlist was heavily containing staples. 
    I hope that more songs from Avocado, Binaural or Riot act will be played tomorrow.
    Yeah, I had the same feeling after night one. It was a solid Pearl Jam show, not an outstanding one. Quite conventional setlist (with the exceptions you noted, plus the debut of that cover Again Today). That said, Eddie's voice was excellent.
