    3. 10-8-04 Kissimmee, FL (partied with a bunch of ten-clubbers in nearby hotel who were great, acoustic Lukin, Last Kiss and Black...and one of my fave covers that reminds me of my beloved Red Sox...I Believe in Miracles)

    4. 11-14-97 Oakland, CA (opening for the ROLLING STONES...nuf said!)

    Santa Barbara 03 - Amazing show with the first half being acoustic. Tons of special guests, John Fruciante, Jack Johnson, Jack Irons, Lyle Workman, and Chris Cornell for a Temple of the Dog reunion. It was an amazing show to benefit Cancer (research) in honor of Johnny Ramon who was dying. Played and teased a few Ramones songs and played Fatal among other rare gems.

    San Diego 06 - Saw 10 shows in 06 and this one was easily the best. Eddie, Pearl Jam and the crowd had an amazing connection going on. Band played Big Wave for the first time, played Satan's Bed, a chilling Long Road, and the crowd participation was epic.

    Mansfield 98 - Typical Boston show, with tons of energy and my Boston Octopus. (see Avatar :arrow: )

    San Diego 95 - My first PJ show and it was sick. I was blown away and the love affair was begun.

    LA 06 - Can't remember if it was night 1 or 2, but the setlist was great.

    Eastern Creek Sydney 1995- Totally hooked after that. Rained all week but cleared that night with a a moon behind the stage. Band at their awesome best. A great sight of 35000 jumping at once to Last Exit
    Brisbane 1 2006- Ten club seats on Stone's side really enregetic night from both band & crowd. Think Stone even acknowledged my wave.
    Reading Festival 2006-My first outdoor show since 1995, Ed was very emotional & caring. Some songs i had not seen played live. We are also in the footage at the end of RVM.
    Brisbane 2 1998- Band were very tight but i had to take care as i had a hernia. Long Road & Nothingman were the best moments.
    Sydney 2 2003- Had my first Ten Club seats to night 1 but the crowd were very quiet & it came off on the band. Second show rocked with NAIS & Half Full making me very happy to hear.
    London 2009- Think i can start counting the days now.
    Eastern Creek 95,Syd 1 98,Bris 2 98, Syd 1&2 03, Reading Fest 06, Bris 1 06, London 09, Hyde Park 10, Gold Coast BDO 14 Budapest 22 Krakow 22 Amsterdam 22 St Paul 1&2 23 Chicago 1&2 23 Chicago 1&2 24 New York 1 24 Philly 1&2 24 Boston 1&2 24 Gold Coast 24 Melbourne 1 24 Sydney 1&2 24
