yes im a massive Pj fan! just got back from seeing them in Dublin which was incredible. im trying to get my hands on verona and milan tickets that would be great with MMJ for support!

[dragonboy]

Thought so!
Either that or a die hard Sonics fan from way back in the day  ;)
I was lucky enough to see Pearl Jam's debut UK show at the Boderline in London & their 2nd show at the ULU.
Saw them a couple of years ago here in Japan too...

Hey guys - first mesage on here. Was at Glasgow show last night - totally awesome performance - so much energy and passion. Dondante was simply breathtaking.

Really looking forward to Edinburgh tonight.  :)

[dragonboy]

Welcome aboard, have a good one Runner!
2 nights in a row?!! You lucky dog!!!  ;D

We just got back. It was absolutely FAB!!
We met Patrick and Bo and chatted for a while. They were so gracious. I asked Patrick if he was ready to shake that hair and he said he was always ready to shake his hair  :)
I tried to match him shake for shake but he left me behind of course.
It was a smaller venue than I've seen them in before, but it was packed, with a very appreciative crowd. The stage was small, but they made the very best of it with lots of jumping. During dancefloors the three guys at the front faced Patrick for a really cool bout of head banging.
The crowd was really into it - very few 'passers by' I'd say. A good section (almost half, maybe) of the audience were clearly more familiar with the Z songs than the earlier stuff, which is really good, I think, because the new album has reached them. They played 6 of the 10 songs from Z and they sounded really good. The sound quality was excellent - better than other places I've seen them.
Jim said they'd enjoyed their day off in Glasgow - he said 'We even got to see Snakes on a Motherfuckin' Plane'  ;D I'm really glad they enjoyed themselves so much. Patrick said Nottingham and Manchester has gone well. I'm sure Edinburgh will be great tonight too. They're in for a real treat.
During Phone Went West the guy next to me said "This is a great song, naw?" and I had to concur  ;)

[Chills]

Man, what a frickin' great setlist! X-Mas opener, PWW and Steam Engine back-to-back  :o

Awsome show last night in Glasgow,maybe even better than King Tuts the last time.  Many highlights,but on a purely personal note, the best was when Carl Broemel asked my 15 year old son,who was at the front beside the
headbangers,with his fingers in his ears,if he wanted earplugs. Struggling with the volume,Alan said yes please. When the band came back on to play At Dawn,Carl handed my son some earplugs!!! What a cool guy.
Can't wait for the live DVD

absolutely loved the show last night, I was about 3 people back right in front of Jim's mic the whole night :)

was funny towards the end when he started falling over :)

was quite annoying having a guy shout all night for Phones Went West and Mahgeeta considering those were in the encore :P

He must have been right behind you. I was behind him  :-/
It was annoying when he did it when Jim was talking.

Great show though  8)

Great story Alan. They really are cool people. One of the best things about this band I think.

In case other members are thinking it, no that wasn't me.

Have to say that 'Phone Went West' was fucking amazing, as was chatting with the mighty Patrick.  What a nice blerk. And it was nice to meet Bo (twice).

Had us a real good time.

WORDAWG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gmac]

I was the guy that clapped when Anytime's intro started and I was the one man pogo-ing during OBH :)

Just wish they had played Lay Low and Run Thru as well

oh and it was good to see that James had enjoyed Glasgow maybe it'll mean more than one show every 3 years :)

loved his first words as they came on stage

"Enough is Enough, I've had it with these motherf*****g snakes on this motherf*****g plane" :P

[dragonboy]

Great to read all the reviews & comments! Doc, Greggy, pleased you had such a great show  :)

[wordawg]
