    Absolute great show, even despite all the tools with their pink bands busting in on all of us and pushing us around. Because of some of them I went from been 1 row behind the rail to about 5 or 6 rows behind, mainly due to 2 big blokes basically elbowing me in the chest and squeezing me out.


    I'm glad you enjoyed the show. Sorry to hear that you lost your spot that really pisses me off.
    I was really surprised when i found out it was GA for this tour.
    In 95 and 98 i was down the front but it was so dangerous.
    I'm 5ft nothing and skinny so i'm pretty sure i'll be struggling to hold on in Adelaide.

    I would take your Sydney ticket in a heartbeat... unfortunately I'm halfway around the world and won't be in Sydney for another 3.5 weeks :(

    Yeah, I'm nearly 5'11 and I fell in the mosh in Canberra in '95 and the Sydney GA show on March 11th was pretty insane (but both shows were amazing). Isn't Adelaide about 5 million degrees right now? Yikes!

    I would take it also but moved from Australia to NJ last year so couldn't make it to this Aussie tour :(

    I love you forever and forever :)

    Great summary by those above me. I only had reserved seating but it certainly seemed like the GA crowd at the front were going off. Big highlights for me were Garden, Love Reign O'er Me (having seen The Who earlier this year) and WMA. Paul that's one lucky kid you've got - did he score any souvenirs?

    He loved it - Eddie threw him a pick and made sure he got it, then a few songs later Mike threw him one. What a first concert for him to see!!

    Wow, my stepson was the '12 year old kid' Eddie mentioned and spoke to. He was on the rail in front of Jeff. He was held up and had the cameras zoomed in on him and the whole audience got to see his moment of fame. he had people shaking his hand an hi-5ing him all the way out of the venue. He was blown away - what an experience for his first ever show!!! If anyone got some footage of this I'd love to get hold of it.

    Incredible show - I did the set relay but had two phones die on me - sorry for the inaccuracies.

    Don't apologise! Thanks for the relay!!

    So that's what your message meant about a kid getting a pick! haha

    Great reporting guys, thankyou!

    Now you've left me with the dilemma of what to start playing from the old i-tunes library. Can you believe I only got into Stuff and Nonsense after hearing it on the PJ video diary thing a few days ago? With a band this prolific you can take your eyes of the road for 2 seconds and miss bloody gold-dust! Will look out for that one over the coming days, and more evocative feedback from down-under....

    There is no better singer, no better band. I'm certain of that!

    Great show, really good night. Liam Finn was outstanding, Ben was amazing and PJ topped them all. Good crowd, a couple of punch ups from dickheads but mostly everyone looked out for each other, very little crowd surfing (good to see)

    the set list was great, good collection of some of the rarer live stuff (pilate, garden) and some of my current favourites (reign over me, just breathe)
    my first front row PJ concert. outstanding.

    For those that went to the show last night, the pool hall/live venue that Eddie was referring to that the guys went to on Friday night was the Hyde Park Hotel of all places...
