Lots of good energy considering the heat of the day/night. The songs that were scrubbed would have been really great to hear! Never heard the 'save it for later' tag in Betterman so for me that was a highlight, along with the 'It's ok' tag. Crowd was well behaved mostly and good for a sing along. Mike was in bloody great form. At my first PJ gig in Adelaide in '98 Ed got on the drums towards the end of the show. He did the same last night! Hasn't got any better though haha!
For everyone who is going to Perth, enjoy the show! Apparently $100 tix at the gate after 6pm now..."this is such a happening tail-pipe of a party"

Hi all, it was a great show - they all are. Given the heat you have to have huge respect for the commitment the guys give. They always make sure they give their all for the fans,
Anyway, here is my review http://www.unambitiousus.com/music/big-day-out-adelaide-review/0 -

Hey DM76,
Have to agree with you - the energy from the band was great - they all seemed to be in great spirits and the set list was upbeat.
Kick out the Jams was great with Mark requesting all the men to "show their t***s" while getting on their women's shoulders.
We stood just behind you and in front of stone - I have always loved a PJ crowd - I guess when you wait for 4 hours to get up front, you get to know them pretty well.
I *think* that was the first time I heard Once?!?!?
Looking forward to Ed's solo tour over in Melbourne.DM76 said:Cracking show.....lined up from 4pm and got front row in front of stone.
Really happy I got to here baba,ylb,once and mosquito.
Ed gave us some wine to drink and also got a one of his pics.
Crowd was much more jovial than Melbourne ......the day was hot but evening setting was perfect.
Sad that my 3 show BDO run has come to an end and no ed solo shows here in adelaide, but look fwd to their speedy return to our shores.
Thanks for visiting ....the energy PJ displayed truly showed me that there's another 20 years left in this bandPost edited by kintoc on===============================================

Still coming down from fri night, best night of my life at the front for the first time never thought that would happen.I was pretty happy being that close then ed came off stage and ran past and grabbed the jersey, the whole show seemed to happen so quickly.I had specific songs I hoped to hear but really didnt care once it started just soaked it all in, jeff was going off like I havent witnessed before the whole band really seemed to be enjoying themselves. Pj security werent to happy when a chick hugged ed, he went off on the aussie security guys.The water guys were pretty funny to watch they were lovin there job ed repayed them with picks0

Had such a fantastic time & it was great being close up to see how happy the guys were. First time that i was that close which really gave me the opportunity to admire their playing skill & technique (and i'm no muso). Especially loved watching Jeff. A special thanks to the great people around me, esp all the folk that stemmed the crowd surge quite a few times. A few aggressive types around but regardless a fun fun night. The line up for the cloakroom made me laugh, in particular listening to one gent loudly voicing his disgust that one particular female received a tambourine from Ed and she was just a "token fan" & wasn't deserving lol
As i'm completely biased it was nice to hear from my bro & co who are casual fans and have attended more BDOs that i can count, that they rated the PJ performance in their top 2 of all BDO performances (the other being RATM)
Cheers to all, hope everyone enjoys whatever shows they have coming up x1995 • 2006 • 2009 • Adelaide

"The water guys were pretty funny to watch they were lovin there job ed repayed them with picks"
They did a great job , they stopped doing water at yelbeter, and where just watching the last song from mikes side , when 3 of the security guards went anal and were telling them to leave etc, when 1 of them refused the brain dead security looked like they were gonna hit him, they were pushing him back making him leave myself and a couple of other guys near me started to give it to the dickheads, and everyone else around just stood silent like week pieces of shit that they were. Its was a wrong end to a great night.

even thou they were fun to watch it kinda pissed me off to see them get EV picks, i dont know the set up but im pretty sure they got a free show for handing out water and they score picks but we are the hardcore fans who spent the big $$$$ and waited on the rail for hours. seems a little unfair.0 -
Fair enough but if it wasnt for those guys I probably would have passed out standing in the one spot for 5 hours0
-
Awesome show once again! Anyone know if the BDO shows will eventually be released as bootlegs?
Still a little gutted at the EV Adelaide snub - here's hoping for a last minute announcement!0 -
I have a little theatre in my town that would be perfect0

Found a YouTube clip of Eddie on drums!

I escaped it...a life wasted...I'm never going back again0 -
Just wanted to say that we had a fantastic group of people around us that night. We had a nice couple to left and these really funny girls in front of us. They were refusing to let any drunk pushy guys in front of them and even flinging them back with their bodies while they danced. It was hilarious! Lol!
We did think at one stage we were going to be killed when a big drunk fella got on his mates shoulders and was wobbling all over the place. Great night!!!“ "Thank you Palestrina.
