    I would give my left nut to see Pearl Jam at the Royal Albert Hall... my favourite venue in the UK. I saw Chris Cornell there in 2016, absolutely stunning.

    I've only been to Royal Albert Hall once. Saw G3 there in 2004. Vai, Satriani and Fripp. A friend loves that kind of music, so I went with him. Was alright.

    Would much rather see Pearl Jam there!

    Leeds and O2 were special in their own way. One thing I would say, don’t play Wembley Arena. The acoustics are rubbish. The sound bounces off the walls.
    100% true! Spent many an evening at the old Arena in the 80s and 90s and the sound was worse than being in a barn! Probably the worst indoor sound i have ever come across. 
  • Royal albert hall is the best venue I've ever been to. I went to that G3 show mentioned above and the Chris Cornell one (shook his hand and had a selfie with him) I've seen David Gilmour there a few times, Clapton, Tom Petty etc etc .... Probably about 30 gigs there haha. Love it!

    Wembley Arena is better than it used to be.

    Probably the ticket drop from returns from people who couldn't make the rescheduled show

    On the whole the crowd was great.
    At BCN i was stuck next to 3 guys who for the whole set were involved in a multimedia presentation to friends at home.

    I can't even fully articulate just how much fun Barcelona was from start to finish. I was in lower tier next to the stage, and it was a blast. Everyone everywhere was into the show and dancing.  The floor looked fun and safe, too.  I can't wait for the bootleg.

    Crowd seemed a little lame in London 2 and the floor was rough from the looks of things, but it really picked up for the encores and the last run of songs was unbelievable!

    Think it’s all perspective of where you are in a crowd.  The crowd where we were at London 2 (as I think dottles said previously) was great.  Lots of dancing and singing along and not just from the people we were with and zero aggro.

    We were left side front of the sound desk.  Was an amazing show for us.

    Sorry for those who didn’t enjoy.

    Worst crowd I experienced was Katowice 07.  It was brutal and I was covered in bruises after the show.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    A Benaroya Hall-style set at the Royal Albert Hall would be absolutely insane. Like, highlight of my life good.
    Again, it's more of a space thing, but I've always loved Alexandra Palace for gigs too. Alice in Chains there in 2013 was mind-blowing.

    I have been to Alexandra Palace a few times, including that Alice In Chains gig. I really don't like it as a venue. It's a pain to get to compared to others and it's not got the best sound quality in the world. I would certainly go if PJ played there, but I would choose other venues ahead of it. 

    Brixton would be ideal for me personally.

    Yeah, I hear you. It's funny because for me the way Brixton is set out completely puts me off. The bar near the front creates a crush that makes the very front section a bit of a mess at an active gig.

    I prefer floors that give you lots of wide open space. I'd take Hammersmith any say over Brixton.

    Also I'm beginning to suspect I'm the only PJ fan in North London where all of my fav venues are ha.

    There isn't a bar at the front in Brixton. The bars are at the back and in the foyer.
