    If PJ were playing the Emirates Stadium - sold out show, no illness, guaranteed. 
    And they’d bottle it with lots of forgotten lyrics and bum notes!  😀
    Haha. Or 2nd best UK show ever. I'm suspecting the boys had some dodgy lasagna. 

    Lasagna-gate 2.0!

    Was diagnosed with cancer in November 2023. Had surgery in Feb 2024, but it's inoperable. Probably got 2-3 years at best so started my bucket list and seeing my favourite band was the first thing I wanted to do, so really gutted. Just praying they'll be back next year! Having said that, I know there's nothing you can do about it, and just hope Eddie's OK, he's a top man! Peace and love x
    That really sucks.  Could you go to Berlin, Barcelona, Madrid or Lisbon show(s)?

    The most spursy outcome of a London  gig ever.
    All spurs fans have only one reply. Bottled when in reality not even in the next 10 years will they finish in the top 2 or even 3.  
    North London forever,whatever the weather

    Arsenal fans need to understand the definition of ‘Forever’. You’re a south London club, never forget that.

    Salty because we own it. 
    You are not even the 3rd best team in London

    You don’t own it just because you made up a silly song about it. 
    And we were literally the 2nd best London team last season. 

    The Stadium isn’t the issue here either. Beyonce. GnR, Pink, RHCP, the NFL all managed to fill it, more than once. 

    I think the organisers assumed that selling 40k tickets to the o2 equated to 40k people, without considering perhaps 50% of people attend both nights. 

    PJ fucked up by overpricing and over estimating. The irony that Green day filled Wembley on the same day underlines how badly this went down. 

    It was a dream to see them play at ‘my’ stadium, one which will never be realised now. 
    Let’s hope they learn from this and reward us with another show soon.

    Id be surprised if they make Berlin 1 - I think 2nd show is more likely

    Has anyone got any idea how much of the actual cost Ticketmaster intend to keep, as Ticketmaster intend to keep their fees? 
    Ticket price £135
    Facility Charge £2
    Service Charge £20.75
    Ticket Value £157.75
    Process Fee £2.75
    So total Charge £160.50
    Plus £10 extra for complimentary souvenir ticket, that's basically when we would get pre QR Codes on Phone.

    AXS give full refunds on tickets booked through their website but not these ticketmaster crooks who just seem to rip off fans with extra fees, and that demand pricing model for some events.

    Do feel for those who have travelled far and booked hotels etc.
    Absolutely disgusting!!! 

    Show is cancelled and no FULL refund. At least £25 per ticket non refundable.  

    That's 3rd tour in a row. 

    Think I'm over it at this point 
    Pearl Jam stands with TM it truly is disappointing they can keep their premium tickets and overpriced tickets and fees! I’ve only got tickets to MSG for only one night! I never thought this band would fold like this on its fan base.

    Do a setlist of mellow songs ev. A few bangers with other members singing. Take care of yourself. I would cringe if I was at a show and heard him p painfully belting out songs.

    In Manchester he still had capacity to sing and ruined his voice by the set list. Play slieght of hand. Strangest tribe. Let me sleep. Then let stone do 2. Sweet Lew . It's simple and he would have had time to recover but what he decided was to go all out and that's caused a problem. He said it himself I can feel I'm doing damage to my voice.
    Oh well not much can be done about it now. I just hope for all my old friends and all my new ones in Berlin that it's all ok and it's mellow night 1 so night 2 has a chance.

    When they cancelled in 2022. A similar situation. I was in Amsterdam and they cancelled night 1 like a few hours before the show but managed to do night 2...

    Different cause wasn‘t it? Wildfires in Paris? His cold from London 2018 was over 4 days later in Milan.

    No not fear mongering. Unfortunately having been in this position 3 times after cancelled PJ gigs and basing this on previous experience. Good luck bro

    It's not fearmongering being honest and realistic no sense burying your head on the sand.

    It‘s not realistic to think that a cold needs more than a week to get better. Ed might not be at 100% but it‘s definitely not unrealistic to think he can be on stage on Tuesday.

    Not saying it‘s a safe bet, but yes, a lot of people here are exaggerating negativity around here.
