where would be best to go for a few pints before the gig and near enough to the o2?

Located beside the new O2 Arena in Dublin's docklands, The Green Room Bar is Dublin's finest piano bar, offering all the comforts of a modern wine and piano bar in the heart of Dublin's entertainment district. It is the closest bar to the O2 for a pint after and before a concert. The Green Room boasts a new bar, off license, out door smoking area and lounge, where guests can enjoy wine purchased from the off license in comfort and style.

Seen Pearl Jam leaving The Merrion Hotel earlier on. They got on one of the band busses and put their guitars in the boot, so I presume they are gone for a rehersal for tomorrow nights show in the 02.

Can anyone tell me if Pearl Jam played the Point in 1995? The first gig I ever went to was to see them there, and I was convinced it was '95, but I can only find a listing for a gig in '96 which I'm positive I missed.

billymitchell · 22-06-2010 09:15AM

First time going to see them tonight, I CAN NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maquiladora · 22-06-2010 09:43AM

For anyone who hasn't seen them live before, they usually play about 25 songs. Usually 2 encores, with 3 or 4 songs in each.

Oh yeah, if you hear "booing", it's not booing - it's Booming, for Boom Gaspar on keyboards.

I don't think they played in 1995. They were on the bill with Neil Young in Slane in 1993. They definitely played the Point in 1996, 'cos No Code had been released, and as far as I know, that was the time they played Millstreet as well. Then they were in The Point again June 2000 (which was released as part of the official bootleg series and includes Eddie's comment that they'd released two albums since they'd last played here). The last time was for the eponymous album, and now the two gigs this week.

I think that's it.

eviltimeban · 22-06-2010 12:09PM

Didn't they play Dublin in 1995 as part of "Neil Jam", when all of PJ except Eddie played with Neil Young in support of the "Mirror Ball" album?

On another note, on Sunday afternoon I met Mike McCready walking down Grafton St with his wife and kids. Very nice guy, stopped and chatted for a few minutes. Was a cracking hot day so I'm sure he thought Dublin was lovely!

spaceboy · 22-06-2010 12:53PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. And with good reason. It was a dreadful gig, primarily due to the terrible venue. Twenty-five minutes of Scenery didn't help matters either. At least Neil came back the following year with Crazy Horse and redeemed himself in the Point.

larry1 · 22-06-2010 02:42PM

Any idea what time PJ will be on stage anyone?

Thanks

maquiladora · 22-06-2010 02:49PM

eviltimeban · 22-06-2010 04:21PM

8.45 and not 9pm? Thanks for the tip. Would've missed the first 15 minutes otherwise!

tracert · 22-06-2010 04:37PM

Brilliant gig. One of the best times I've seen em. In Great form they were. Appears that somebody fell over the balcony into the sound desk area at the end. An ambulance was on is way in as we left. Hope he's ok...
