So many highlights - the Betterman/Good Woman/4th of July 'trilogy', LONG NIGHTS with Glen!!!, Bugs, Blackbird... even the intro to Rearviewmirror...
The funniest story of the night was Ed's suggestion for a YouTube ukulele talent search... called Uke Hunt! Probably the first time that word has been said (repeatedly!) at the Opera House
Even the merch line was entertaining. It was so long that people queuing to get into Carmen (the opera) on another stage got caught up in it. It was hard to tell who looked the most out of place - the Ed fans at the opera or the expensively dressed opera buffs in an EV merch line.

“Put yer good money on the sunrise”
(Tim Rogers)
And Glen Hansard. Yes. That is all.
Praying very hard to the setlist Gods that Ed plays Blackbird or Hide your love away at Melb 1.
I would die happy if I got either one..
:P
And here I thought he only was an actor LOL!
I think you meant Joey Ramone.
AND its an awesome song that I would love to hear Ed sing for sure!
I may sound like a whiner, but I've had some really negative experiences with the Sydney audience members sitting near me. Last night the lady next to me vomited all over herself and continued to sit there for quite a few more songs before moving. I had to try and enjoy listening to Blackbird with the overwhelming stench of vomit before I could move out of my seat without disturbing those around me during Blackbird. I stood in the aisle for quite a few songs until there was a pause where I could ask somebody who had a couple of empty seats near them if the seats were taken.
Right behind me there was also a very aggressive woman threatening to fight another woman seated behind her. They did not stop arguing for ages, at least 4-5 songs. WTF is wrong with some people?! They were at an amazing venue, seeing an amazing performance!

The Uke Hunt story was certainly interesting, when if you have dabbled in playing the Uke, ukulelehunt.com is your first stop for tabs etc.
Been a great 3 nights in Sydney, look forward to the last show I'll see in Melbourne on Sunday.
And thanks to social media, everyone is a comedian and a smart arse and it's catching on in real life.
Something strange that I noticed last night was that there were a lot of empty seats. It's a real shame given how many people have been posting here crying out for a ticket. There must have been at least 60 seats that we could see from our vantage point (box D on the 'Stone' side of the stage with a full view of the crowd). Maybe all of those touts that took all the tickets couldn't sell them at their inflated prices...

“Put yer good money on the sunrise”

Very covers heavy compared to previous nights with heaps of entertaining banter as usual. A lot of love in the room, you felt like everyone in attendance appreciated how lucky they were to be there. Apologies on behalf of Sydney for the distasteful attendees mentioned above - so glad I was in a well-behaved section and oblivious to them.
Highlights included:
Sleepless Nights w/ Glen unmic'd (audience uncharacteristically dead silent for the whole song)
Golden State w/ EJ Barnes - including false start where he accidentally went into Setting Forth after the intro
Blackbird (thanks priesty for the nicely timed request
Long Nights (was stoked to hear this one, so atmospheric in that room)
Good Woman
Bugs on pump organ
Ed calling out to his dog Hank 'Bruce style'
Ukulele Anthem (hilarious)
It looked like Eddie was drinking non-alcoholic beverages last night - is there a chance he's doing febfast?

Got there a bit late after work . Missed Glen which was a shame.
3rd row centre - thanks 10c. Closest Ill ever get at a PJ/Ed concert.
Golden State knocked me about - couldn't ask for more than that. Society, Blackbird......great night.
Maybe Im getting old (most likely less grumpy!!) but I do all I can to avoid Sydney concerts but I must say Sydney BDO and last night restored some faith.
Some dude yapped away at us outside about how big a fan he was and knew everything about ed/band etc (didnt stop) and camped out for 24 hours and got 5th row.. Asked where we were sitting and I had to say row 25 or something....couldn't do itto the poor bloke. Thanks 10c.
Just as a said note (and trivial point)....the lady that came out at the beginning and said no phones/cameras etc....was that Kat? aka Keyser Soze
Loved so many songs, but highlights were Society , I love this song and was sad to see it was scrapped off the 1st Sydney night(so I was so excited-Emma), Throw Your Arms around me (another favourite song of mine (I thought the BDO version was awesome, but last night the sounding and Eds voice was even better in the Opera House), Driftin, Tonight You Belong To Me with Eliza-Jane & Rockin in the Free World, where Ed got nearly everyone up, and of course Hard Sun where Glen, Eliza-Jane & Cecilia joined ED & everyone was standing up for that song. Ed was funny with the Uke Hunt story, and Amanda's Uke song is rather amusing.
I saw the cutest girl, maybe aged 8-10 she had an Adventure time beanie on, sitting in her Dads shoulders and she was rocking out so hard, just adorable, a credit to her family, because they were into the show just as much as she was. I wanted to take a photo of her, because she looked like she was enjoying the show so much, but the no camera policy made me leave my phone in my bag.
I was oblivious to the other side drunken people, we were in box V, great seats and no trouble makers around.
Glen was fantastic too, I have to buy his album. Loved Glen on the piano, with his Irish song & him sharing about his quick Bruce Springsteen concert visit, and "Ask yourself what would Bruce do?" comment. This Gift was just beautiful, I love that song and I was lucky enough to hear it twice in Sydney. If you are going to see Ed in Melbourne or Brisbane make sure you see Glen, excellent singer & entertainer.
I am so sad that my 3 weeks of Pearl Jam & Ed are over........ :(( I will be stocking up on bootlegs now they are back in the shop and just waiting until I get to see PJ or Ed again. The Sydney BDO was just amazing, PJ were on fire, and Ed has backed it up in the 2 Sydney shows that I went to. Every performance in Australia has had incredible setlists and great variety. Thank you again PJ & ED.

I'm glad you got Ukelele anthem too. Amanda Palmer is a hoot so was stoked when Ed played it here, a great comedic addition to the set list. I love that Ed takes some requests from the audience, if only it didn't encourage the dickheads in the crowd to yell out all the "hits". I'm glad he's honouring some of the 10c'ers requests though.
Get ready Melbourne, you are in for a real treat

The lady who puked wasn't from Sydney and she had travelled from QLD. At the very least she should have apologised and left immediately to go and clean herself up. It was f**king disgusting :(, plus because it was obviously dark there, I had no idea if any puke had ended up on me (thankfully it didn't!).
The ladies sitting on the other side of me were nice to me, but the one next to me was very loud...lots of "whoooo" screaming at the top of her lungs and she kept on screaming out to Eddie, even when loads of people were telling her to shut-up nearby.
Then the woman who was arguing with another woman (I could only hear the aggressive woman's voice though, was saying stuff like "I'll find you out outside, etc"..."give me your name & number and I'll f**k you up"). I could hear a man nearby pleading with this woman, saying "ladies...please!"
The acoustics in the Opera House were very different to other venues, and when people were constantly talking and arguing, it was easy to hear every word they were saying. I was the 3rd seat in from the aisle, and with the lack of legroom in the seating, it was not easy to get past people without disturbing them. I think if I had the aisle seat I would have gone and complained to security quite a few times!
Argh, so frustrating!

Feel very fortunate to have seen the 3 Sydney gigs. All very different......1 was largely PJ, 2 was more EV solo then PJ in the back half, 3 was stacked with covers. 90 odd songs of excellence with some hilarity thrown in.
Thanks to the great man and thanks to 10C for row 3 last night.
What to do with myself now?
