You must have been standing somewhere close to where I was.

Looking forward to your photos...maybe you have the one with the caught Slovenian flag..?.!.

Spankensen · June 2007

I probably was

I remember a small packet (looked like a packed flag or other piece of material) flying by...eddie picked it up and stuck it in his back pocket....or was it the other flag (wasn't bundled up in a packet), which was picked up by Boom (after he pushed poor Stone to the side

I had the white and green concert t-shirt on from last year (surfboards on the back)....it was one of the best positions....we got to see Eddie and Stone up close

by the way, if I'm not able to figure out this web-sharing-photo thing, could you give me your e-mail address and I can send them to you

Spankensen · June 2007

Here are some pictures of the Munich concert...they're not the best quality, but hey, who cares

as long as you get the feeling.....have fun, 'cause I certainly did

please scroll down to see the pictures

thx

Stereotype · June 2007

Yeah! The small one..that you thought it was packed..that was the Slovenian..I bend it..so that it was more "flyable" if you know what I mean..my throwing could be better but I had to do it quickly..he picked it up and yes..he put it in his pants..
Thanks for the photos. If you have some more from the end of the concert or the flag..you can send it also on my email: b6rb6r6@gmail.com

Btw I really like the light - rays on the first two photos..kind of artistic

Hello, everybody!!
I was lucky to take part in 2 PJ gigs this year (and also 1 in Katowice, 15th Jun 2000) and out of these three concerts, the one in Munich was the greatest! It was a fantastic thing that I could stand so close to the stage (about 5 meters from the rails) it was the first time it's happened to me. I could see Mike very well, and also the rest of the band. Now I realise how much I missed by not going near the stage the previous time (I had a seat in a faraway sector). It's something absolutely out of this world to be so close to the band, with crowds of people around you, who feel the same as you and the music makes you feel as unity. I will never forget that. I enjoyed looking at people from time to time, who sang, moved to the music and were so touched by what was going on ( I was especially impressed by a group of Italians, who I later met on the bus to Chorzów, Katowice)... it's simply amazing...
I loved the set, too, somehow PJ managed to play my favourite songs.
After waiting for the concert for 7 years, I would have been hungry for even more

but, luckily I had one more gig ahead of me (Katowice, here I come

), so when it all finished, I was so happy to know that there was still more

All in all, it was the greatest concert I have ever been to, and one of the happiest moments in my life! Even Ed mentioned the great gig in Munich on the next day...

Hey, what bus were you on? The double decker or the first one?
I was on the second one, but cant figure out who you are...:o

Tigerlily · June 2007

I was not on the doubledecker, but the other one, which took people from Katowice to Munich, and then back to Katowice

I saw these Italians when we stopped near Munich, at the petrol station, for shopping and shower

Oh yeah, ok, i thought you were on the other one.

So we havent met then. or we might have somewhere else, who knows?

And yes, Munich was a great show (despite all that craziness about going in, omg, dont even wanna recall that).
Edide was so happy, you could totally tell he was enjoying it so much, so were the rest of them

Tigerlily · June 2007

Craziness, yes... At the beginning I was standing in the 4th row, Sometimes was ok, but then, with Porch, people around me went crazy, I couldn't stand, and twice I nearly lost my glasses

so, I moved about 3 metres back, and there it was fine, everybody moved as they liked, without pushing and trampling others. Still, I was very close to the stage (the closest ever) A friend of mine, from Slovakia (Bea, I hope you read this

), got badly hurt when she was near the stage and the guards had to pull her out of the crowd. She got a few bad bruises and then she went to the back.

Ed didn't seem very talkative, but you could see he was happy and entranced with the energy, music... I wish I could go there again...

Well, not sure about the crowd. its always a little rougher in the middle and in front of Mike but I was on the side of Mike, in front of a speaker what Eddie came on later.
I meant the craziness before the show when they totally messed our system. we had a list stated since 7 am, and at 4 they let VIP package ppl in the venue, and then starting ppl in, anyone who had a 10c. didnt matter that like 50 of us had bags to bring to the bus and pick up the tickets. so we were all squished like birds in cages in that little hallway for like half an hour, no air...then we tried to save the situation but nobody listened. anyhow, it was messed up and not even 10c could help (or would).nvm. i still got to the front, but im sure some ppl who were there first since eraly in the am didnt :(
The show was awesome tho. and Eddie was good. He liked the crowd and all, trust me. compared to Poland and Vienna he talked a lot

I was standing there, too, but not at the rails, a bit further back...

Stereotype · July 2007

Does anybody have a photo or a video from the ending of the show? I know people are taking photos when the lights are on and the band is taking a bow...
I have a neet little gift prepared (Pearl Jam related of course).
I'm looking for a caught Slovenian (small) flag..or if it's a video a blown kiss would do to (before the flag thing).

Must sound stupid but it would mean a lot to me.

Thanks for looking!

jimed14 · July 2007

Boom's got a flag in his hand in this shot ... hope you can prove me wrong, doesn't look like the Slovenia flag ... does it?

No. At this point it is in Eddie's pants (back - pocket). Before they gathered and took a bow, Eddie came on the right side of the stage (looking from out point of view)and then..blew kisses and I threw him my flag (it is quite small..)..

Thanks for looking. If no one has it..my special little gift goes to you.

jimed14 · July 2007

sorry, don't have it ...

1Vedhead · July 2007

Thanks to all for posting all their great pictures in this thread!!

I lost my camera after the Poland show, so all my Munich pics were lost!
(Someone in Poland has some AMAZING photos!!)

So, thanks to all of you wonderful people, I'll have some photo memories!!

cropdustress · July 2007

I cant believe its been over a month since this amazing show!
It was my first show of this tour and got blown away once again by Pearl Jam, the crowd, setlist...everything.

Here's the Sometimes video I took, not sure if I posted a link here before

Im sorry, but I dont recognize the flag

Whose flag is it?

jimed14 · July 2007

The tickets from the Munich show were pretty nifty ... however ..

After we got into the show, my girlfriend held both the tickets for "safe keeping" ... after the hustle of the hotel, tranfering to a friend's house, heading to another city, blah blah blah ... our tickets are gone. (grrrr)

I was hoping to frame it with the poster would anyone happen to have a spare ticket they'd be willing to part with?

As it was me and the lady we got an extra poster ... perhaps some sort of deal can be made if you got tickets you're willing to part with? Maybe not straight up ... but ... something to that effect.

Memeber "Goldstar" posted this in his post within this thread, here's what the ticket looked like ... (it's his pic, want to give him fair credit)

PM me if you can help ...

thanks.
