    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Hello. I don't normally do message boards, but I'm still buzzing from monday night so I thought I'd read some posts, and after reading about other peoples experiences I'm feeling almost as excited as I was after the gig.

    I still can't beleive the set list! It's the best set list I've even read about, let alone experienced. It more than made up for missing out on the Astoria (I'm still slightly angry though!).
    I never thought I'd see them play Rockin' In The Free World in this country (I'm a huge, huge Neil Young fan, so it was emotional). That's the only song I requested in 2000 (before I realised shouting requests isn't really cool). I certainly didn't think they'd play Bushleaguer in this country, and it's one of those songs that's always been on my wishlist. Same goes for Crazy Mary which completely bowled me over. It's the song I sing to myself more than any other, and It was totally unexpected.
    Long Road, I Got Id, Present Tense, Faithfull, Immortality, SOLAT, Save You, Inside Job, Indifference; Almost ALL my favourite songs. If they played Sad and Other Side I probably would have died.

    The only disapointment was that they didn't play Unemployable or Gone (I was sure they would) but with a set like that it didn't matter.

    And holy mother of crap! A brand new song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't even aware that that song existed (like I said, I don't really do message boards, but I'm as ardent a fan as they come) but my god. I was standing there with goosebumps, my mouth gaping like a moron. It was religious.

    My hightlight has to be the pins and needles feeling I got all over my body when raising my arms and singing "I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room". I'm getting that same feeling again right now just thinking about it.

    I'm glad they didn't play Ledbetter, Jeremy or Even Flow, but I will never get bored of Better Man, Black or Courdroy and they will always be on my wishlist.

    I was in such ecstasy I had to walk through the fountain outside, arms wide open, just to mark the occasion. I would NEVER do that normally.

    I apologise to the girl behind my brother who kept getting a mouth full of sweat when he took his shirt off. He sweats more than anyone in the world cos he eats too much cheese. I did tell him to put his shirt back on, but he's a dick.

    As I get into more and more bands and go to more and more gigs, the feeling of awe and excitement at seeing my favourite bands seems to diminish, especially if it's one of those months when I'm going to three gigs a week, and to be honest, there are other bands that I thought had taken over Pearl Jam in terms of my appreciation, but Mondays gig made me feel 14 again, but better. PJ are still the best. No question.

    Why even bring flags... not like they will decide on the fly to do another show in portugal...or wherever. And jumping infront of others in the line.. thought that was below 10clubbers....

    It was really funny when a guy in a purple inoffical PJ shirt jumped into the line with his friend and some dudes (And a woman) behind me owned them :) That was really funny...

    Three shows for me with Wembley and have yet to see/hear Animal, Hail Hail and Rearviewmirror... and they aren't really rare :)

    Nice to here 3 (?) songs from Riot Act... at least I love that album :) Too bad Ghost wasn't perfomed :)

    Me too!!! It was nice that it went to the people on the front row, but I couldn't help feeling a tad jealous. The big dude in front of me got hold of the bottle, but he had to give it back to security. Shame, as I really think he would have shared with me and my friend ;) I still think we were basically standing next to each other without knowing! Hehehehe!

    Hey Guys,

    I'm new here (relatively), I was wondering if ANYONE had a spare ticket stub that they would be wililng to give me? I couldn't get one back at the end and i collect them, i have only seen Pearl Jam a couple of times and am really pissed that i didnt get one. I would be wiling to pay or whatever.

    Anyway if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it,

    thank you v much, James

    :D Possibly! Well there was a guy in a white t-shirt on my right and then Laura and Ian were the other side of him. The guy on my left had longish hair, facial hair and maybe glasses and was jumping up and down constantly... I almost got several elbows in the face :o were you with him?

    And harmless_little_f***, yes I know what you mean. Age is winning.:(

    Nope, I would've been on your right... The dudes in front of me were very friendly. One was wearing a white T-shirt... Could've been the dude on your right I guess... but I don't think we're going to figure this one out! Hehehe!
    EDIT: what do Laura and Ian look like though...

    Cheeky. Or it could be Bruges! I've never seen the sun in Bruges after 3 visits.
    Mind you with the size of the beers you people serve who cares.
