    So what does everyone think the odds are that, with Lisbon being the only city on the tour getting two nights, each show will have a unique setlist with no repeats?


    I think they'll be very different setlists, or at least i'm hoping they will be! Obviously there'll be a fe repeats (Betterman, Severed Hand, WWS etc), but i think they'll be two very special shows!

    Do you think they will play more off Riot Act (in Europe in general) because they did not tour there after it was released?

    back in '96 the setlists were different, but with a lot in common.... i believe it will be more or less the same....

    OK, so I didn't have time to read all the posts, but I just wanted to say:

    If there is anyone out there looking for a great hotel in Lisbon, I have one. I stayed there by random chance when I first traveled there with fellow students in '98. When I went back (solo) to see PJ in Lisbon (first show of the tour), I headed straight towards it, as it was the only think I remembered/knew.

    It is not fancy, it is not going to knock your socks off..... but the view from my room (both times I've stayed there) overlooked an amazing castle wall (castelo de Jorge?) It knocked MY socks off, mainly because I couldn't f'in believe that I was half-way around the world, ALONE, to see Pearl Jam. But it's also a nice place.

    PM me if interested, and I'll look to see the name (I saved the hotel card from the front desk).

    Enjoy Lisbon (awesome city) and Pearl Jam. I'm jealous!

    Hi, sorry to interrupt you!
    I am looking for a floor ticket (Plateia em Pé) for September 5 show. Does anyone have a spare?
    I tried Ticketline. But seems sold out except for balcony seats.
    I have not decided yet, but I am thinking of flying from Japan if I can get one for my summer vacation because PJ do not seem to come to my coutry on this tour.
