Was talking about this with friends when we were at the Amsterdam gigs and they were saying the Echo Arena isn't all that good on sound for gigs - I've only been there for comedy gigs. I think after last week, Leeds Arena will be nailed on next time they come back to UK.

2012: Manchester I & II : EV Manchester : Soundgarden Shepherds Bush

Kind of hurts me to say this but the audiences can be a little moronic at the Echo Arena. I've seen a number of bands there and very few of them have been trouble free. 12 months ago i saw The Who there and I watched a woman being escorted from the building by the police. Not sure what she'd done but I've never seen the police inside a gig in many years of concert going. Consequently, given the choice I go to the MEN in Manchester if both are being played. I say this as someone who is from Liverpool so it's not a dig at the city at all.. On the other hand Eddie should come and do a solo gig at the Philharmonic. I'm sure he'd love it and it would be amazing.
Manchester 17.8.09, Manchester 21.6.12, Copenhagen 10.7.12, Manchester 28.7.12 (EV), Phoenix 19.11.13, San Diego 21.11.13, LA 23.11.13, LA 24.11.13, Vienna 25.6.14, Leeds 8.7.14, London 6.6.17 (EV), London 18.6.18, Krakow 3.7.18, London 17.7.18, Dublin 3.7.19 (EV)
I live in Kent and don't mind doing to Manchester, have been three times, but Leeds was awesome. Best indoor venue I've seen them at. It's a great layout.

It would be great to see Pearl Jam at the Echo arena but i agree with what you say, i too don't care much for the echo arena. Would rather do Leeds again. Eddie at The Phil would be awesome.

I don't expect 2015 though. No way.
