    Ok, after a few days at home, back from Berlin, i'm trying to find the right words for the best night in my whole life! Not easy to get on with normal life but you don't have the choice! ;)

    Berlin 2009 was absolutely fantastic and i thought that it will be almost impossible to top that...well, we all know that it happened!! Thanks to PJ who brought me to tears, gave me goosebumps all over my body, made me smile/laugh and thought-provoking!! Thanks to the crowd...i will never forget Unthought Known (I'm sure that we will all have a Video "Unthought Known - Live in Berlin" very soon!!!!), 18.000 people clapping from the first note to the end of the song!!!

    Nothing more to say/write! Hope to see all my friends soon (hopefully in 2011!!)! :D


    Finally I am back from Berlin, too.
    And finally I could read through the whole post ... all so wonderfully said,
    great descriptions and points of view, all very good to read about,
    So there is nothing to add, nearly ;)

    A lot is said about the 2nd encore and I got very emotional, too. Who didn't except of the 1 or 2 within so many thousands?
    However, when I did my first post in an internet café at Prenzlauer Berg, all that was left was the pure positive energy of ALIVE. We got “the gone” involved but were aware to be alive!
    and I guess, we were all so happy to be alive and dancing along to this magical music.
    What a positive feeling!

    So, but as said before, my personal best moments in songs -I thought- were in WWS and DTE.

    But now I’ve read through all these great stories to tell, and there are so many good and intense moments rising up my memory, too.
    So thanks dear writers here!

    And if there is just one thing I regret, it is that I missed my favourite song these times:
    Unthought known, somehow my song to dance along, and how I wished to dance one more time to it!
    (I heard it live first in Nijmegen and there, they played it just fantastic, but Berlin was even better, I guess)
    Well, but I stood in line for getting my survival: water.
    and I am getting old, not being able to get through a whole concert without a break in form of water... mhmmm. so I took pictures of the beautiful sky and watched all the people clapping... so wonderful. So, yes, lets hope for a Unthought known video… they did some live connection to somewhere, right?

    To me this show offered the whole variety of life, emotions all over, from the best rock music being balm for your soul to critical songs about our fucked up world, further along to the memories to all the loved ones you are now so missing! Or those that had to go just too early,
    but above all there was only love spreading all around. And to me it seemed that we celebrated this love in Alive very extremely and actually during the whole concert.
    Big words for a concert, but well... it was a big concert I know now!!!

    and one thank you is missing: Danke Berlin... it makes it all so easy and it is such a nice and friendly and cool place to be, especially for a Pearl Jam gig… and I am talking here not only about the most beautiful venue ever heard and seen: Wuhlheide.
    My friends and I are still dreaming of the Kastanien Lane…

    so yes, hopefully to Berlin 2011.
    and to all the lucky ones out there: enjoy the rest of the tour and spread out the PJam!

    peace and love and viva Pearl Jam!
    nicki :P


    Great words, great reviews

    Danke, merci, 'efharisto', THANKYOU

    This whole show or experience was like a dream come true for me. Amazing setlist, the kind of setlist I would travel normally to the USA for. Perfect dedicated and passionate crowd, beautiful location.

    Push me pull me, in hiding, come back, light years, the end, kick out the jams, low light, spin the black circle, immortality, everything was just as epic about this show!

    Let's make this an annual event Pearl Jam! :D

    ...the world is come undone, I like to change it everyday but change don't come at once, it's a wave, building before it breaks.

    Haha, Wissel, i knew it before! :D

    my opinion on the show: it was my 7th and, together with the first, the best (all reasons have been stated before).
    ...and guess where my first show was!
    and he who forgets will be destined to remember

    Utterly amazing. I absolutely love during the Black dodo's, you can see Eddie just looking around at all the people, in the middle, up on the stands and he just looks so... appreciative I think is the best word.

    Unfortunately my efforts to charm the German ladies is doomed to failure I fear, since I only remember about 20 words in German and I used them all up in that post! I do seem to know some words that you Deutschenmaytchen don't though- the ones I made up!

    Here is my re-translation of what I was trying to say:

    I live in central England in an industrial city. Have you any pets?

    :)

    Here is my favourite and most used piece of German - which me and my friend use in place of saying 'I'll get my coat'

    'Wo ist die nachste haltestelle bitte?'


    Anyway Snowfunk , if you keep it on the downlow, I think I might be getting somewhere here! :lol:
