    I also really enjoyed the opening acts, first saw the Murder Capital in 2018 when they were starting out and they have the same energy, they're brilliant. Richard Ashcroft brought me back to the 90s, I loved the Verve's Urban Hymns album back then. 

    I'm still buzzing over Pearl Jam though, took these photos

    Pre show stage vacuuming!

    Stone was very animated tonight. I had a great time watching him move in his silly ways. He really seemed to dig the new songs.

    What a magical evening. It really was. My sons first PJ show..to see him dancing and singing was a huge moment for me. Brilliant set for the huge crowd.  I remember eddie said in pj20 documentary you can get away with a lot more in a small.show. it was a huge show and the set reflected it. The crowd were brilliant. I could be wrong but seemed like eddie asked someone to take a picture of the crowd during  RITFW. Crowd went bananas. The dark matter songs were amazing live.  Setting sun did it for me. The visuals.  This band just keep flooring me.  Was chatting to people from all over the world
     Brilliant to see. Safe trip home for everyone.  'This is the greatest band in the world'.

  • Yeah, disappointed with the setlist. Given that no songs from Riot Act, Lightning Bolt or Gigaton have ever been played in Ireland, I was hoping they'd mix it up. Beyond DM songs, nothing from the last 25 years, and no No Code or Lost Dogs. And no Running. 
    That said, it was definitely a crowd that wanted the hits. And the band seemed to be having a blast. Mile was on fire, and even Stone looked happy! 
    Some really beautiful moments. The first 4 songs were perfect. Small Town and Corduroy really underlined that its been so long (14 years to the day) since they played here.
    Upper Hand was transcendent. The Evolution visuals were blistering. And so touching of Ed to dedicate Keep Me in Your Heart to Shane MacGowan and Sinéad O'Connor. I'd been wondering if he might mention them, so that really hit me in the feels. 
    One last gripe. Setting Sun was powerful but badly misplaced. Putting it between Evolution and Alive was weird and totally killed the momentum. If it had been Evolution/Alive/RitFW and then Setting Sun, it would've been a terrific ending. 

    Perfectly said.

    Definitely just more proof that you have to be there. On paper I can understand not being that excited. This was my 28th show, obviously lots of hits, but the hits were hitting and I had a great time. Really was a fantastic show, Ed was quite emotional, seemed to legitimately have to stop himself from crying during the Modern Girl tag, I think he was just taking notice of how amazing his life is. So glad I was able to be there tonight, my first time seeing them outside of North America. Also appreciated the Suggestion tag on Daughter. Obviously a throwback for them to incorporate that one again. Amazing show, looking forward to some more shows in August and September as I make my way towards 30.
    words seem so out of place.

    My 8th/9th time seeing the band (I’ve been a fan since 1991) and probably the most enjoyable Irish performance. The set list was full of hits and bangers and while I’d have loved something like Sad, or DOC, the set list suited the audience and venue well. Ed was definitely feeling it and out of breath several times - it appear end to be an emotional gig for him, and his speech about the Natasha O’Brien case was wonderful. I’m so glad they didn’t play any other covers which can ruin their set lists. Highlights: React, Respond, Jeremy (which they’ve reclaimed) and Porch. Lowlights RITFW. Fans were great especially up top, but friends at the back didn’t have the same sound experience.

    The context is everything. 14 years of energy all unleashed in an outdoor setting on a beautiful summer's day. I saw Neil Young deliver a hits-only set at primavera, his first time playing Barcelona after a similarly long gap. A great band knows you can't just ignore that type of energy, you need to ride it. And as another poster said, the hits hit.

    I loved every second.

    They went all in on the hits.  Every song people were dancing and singing save for the slow ones.  I loved it.   It was just a sea of people from the front to the back.  Very chill.   I like arenas but this was a beautiful setting for a show.

    We had a fantastic day and night. Met some lovely new friends and old friends. Loved the new songs. Wish they didn’t play so much from Ten. But I get it. It’s disappointing to think of all the amazing songs they could play and I’m not talking specifically about rarities. Thank you PJ for coming to Ireland 🇮🇪. Mike McCready ROCKS 😉

  • A few more pictures here. As others have said the energy was wild. Have seen the guys several times and this was the most ‘crowd-pleasing’ I’ve seen them. Dark Matter tracks were awesome, Wreckage is a fave and they absolutely nailed it .

    We (9 people in our group in total) pulled off a pretty great concert trip:

    Thursday: landed in the morning and everyone was luckily able to check into our hotel rooms early. Took a couple of hours to rest & refresh, then explored the GPO Museum, followed by a one-pint-per-pub crawl back across the town before dinner. A couple of more pints near the hotel after dinner pushed us to a very jet-lag-friendly bedtime. 

    Friday: we split up in the morning - I headed up to Portmarnock for a round of golf at Jameson Links, where I was paired with a pair of local Irish brothers (one of whom was a pro!) who were really delightful to play with, even if I didn’t exactly hang up a respectable score in my first real links round ever. Others from our group took a day trip down to Wicklow/Glendalough, and a couple of others just hung around the city. Regrouped for a few touristy pints in Temple Bar before dinner, then wrapped up the night with pints & music at O’Donaghue’s, where it suddenly got very late. 

    Saturday: slept in a bit, then took care of the souvenir shopping for wives and kids. Did the Guinness storehouse/gravity bar, then a late-ish lunch at Brazen Head. Back to the hotel for a quick refresh, then hopped on the 6 pm bus to Marlay. The bus had no AC and our driver got lost, but all’s well that ends well - we got there in time to hit up a near-empty merch tent with plenty of t-shirts, posters and tea towels by the coach lot, then in to the venue for the last three songs from Richard Ashcroft (thank you, Golden Circle!). Enjoyed a fun show with a great crowd - of course I could complain about the setlist, but the new songs played great, the band seemed to be having fun and like I said the crowd was fantastic. No beers at the show due to the insane lines, but that was probably for the best (especially considering the toilet lines). Back in the city in time for one last pint.

    No issues with the Sunday morning flight home. All in all a really great trip.
