This stuff preys on my mind, i'm addicted to knowing little details about venues i'm going to and how many people are at the shows. But this is the only show i can't seem to find a consistent number for. Does anyone know how many people were at Nijmegen this year?

The receptionist at our hotel said the morning after that there was apparently more people there for Pearl Jam than there were for Rolling Stones, who drew about 40,000 fans. For Pearl Jam i've hear numbers ranging from 30,000 to 70,000!

    I called the company who handled the event a few days after the concert and they told me that 37.000 tickets where released and that it was sold out or close to anyway.

    I think that's a reasonable figure.
    Everyday................is Pearl Jam Day.

    Except Sundays, that's Ed day.

    I know what you mean. I've got detailed stats for the 2000 & 2005 tours all on a spreadsheet (sad eh!) but I love it! I've tried sourcing my info from as official sources as possible (i.e Billboard, venue websites etc). Sorry I can't help with Nimjien though. Seems the recent tours haven't been featured on Billboards weekly top 10 concert stats which I always look at. Lolla was though.
    My PJ shows:
    London 28/10/96, Las Vegas 11/7/98, London 29/5/00, Nurnburg 11/6/00, Prague 14/6/00, Salzburg 18/6/00, Verona 20/6/00, Milan 22/6/00, Zurich 23/6/00, New York 8-9/7/03, Boston 11/7/03, Reading Festival 27/8/06, Shepards Bush 11/8/09, Berlin 15/8/09, Manchester 17/8/09, London 18/8/09, Dublin 22/6/10, Belfast 23/6/10, London (HRC) 25/6/10, Alpine Valley (PJ20) 3-4/9/11, Manchester 20-21/6/12, Leeds 8/7/14, Milton Keynes 11/7/14 To be continued....

    PM me with your email and I'll give you what I've got, though it's still a work in progress and far from complete. Any help you could give me by researching past years shows would be greatly appreciated too.

    Also there's talk of Nijmegen attendance at the following post, PJ's Biggest Crowds?:
