    With a couple of days perspective and having just seen the Cork show, which was good but......I thought the gig in Dublin on Friday was one of the best nights of my life.....musically or otherwise. It was just so special all the way through, the atmosphere onstage and off was one of celebration. Ed seemed to be really enjoying himself with the crowd and Glen....
    Personal highlights:
    My wife going apeshit at the start of Porch
    Going to toilet and missing Can't Keep, but sprinting back to catch the end!
    Glen's cover of Vigilante Man....real fury in his voice...
    Jeremy!
    Black with the string quartet
    Losing my voice during Glen's set!
    Eddie hugging the little girl in the front row..
    Eddie...in general...
    All of it....It was lashing rain outside and me and wife could not have cared less. We floated out of the place on an absolute high, the kind of high only Eddie Vedder can provide. Awesome from beginning to end....

    Cork was amazing! From Betterman to Hard Sun, it was non stop! 31 blistering tunes,well past 10.30 curfew. We sang Happy Birthday to Olivia and then Eddie fired the cake into the audience,no one knows who it landed on! The feed to his mandolin stopped working during Rise and the audience sang without it till it got fixed. He and Glen improvised all the verses in Auld Triangle and told stories about each other. The roof of the "tent" lifted for Black. Eddie went off the stage to put on a "People's Republic of Cork" t shirt for 2mins,  he just played solid all the way through with not even a break! It was awesome!!!
