Vice-versa for me the 2000 tour i didn't think wasn't a patch on 2006, Vedder's voice was ****ed for half the time and the guitars sounded too treblely and dull.
Altough Vedder hoping off the speaker in '00 was a highlight of my life to date!

Sephiroth_dude · 09-08-2009 12:10am

Are they on tour at them moment or anything?would love to see them live.

jenizzle · 09-08-2009 2:01am

They are doing 5 shows in Europe, none of which are in Ireland, all of them are sold out and are taking place in the next week or so. They'll be back in the next year or so no doubt

Looks fairly good, especially at a festival. Really want to hear brother live! Have seen rats before, fun song live!

Ok a question for anyone getting a train from Manchester to London. What is the best station to leave from and to arrive into in London, gotta get a ticket booked, any help much appreciated!!

Tom65 · 09-08-2009 5:19pm

Great setlist. I think they'll include more new stuff at Shep Bush, because I think it's more of a promo show than anything else.

Can't believe it's in 3 days. Madness.

There's a few of us getting the 10.15 train from Manchester Piccadilly to London Euston. It takes 2hrs. It cost £12 but that was a month or two ago, looking there now it costs £54. You can search for them here: https://www.buytickets.virgintrains.co.uk/JourneyRequest.aspx . You might get a cheaper ticket elsewhere but I'm not sure where from.

unfortunately I can't help you out - had it been for Sheppards Bush I would have taken it off your hands as I still have the flight for that booked.....
hope some kind soul takes it off your hands though......

Don't worry, I'm sure everyone tell you alllll about it on Wednesday :P

Mad to think I'll be seeing them tomorrow. I'm hoping for an Ed preset, or, slightly less realistically, a Pete Townsend appearance.

therecklessone · 10-08-2009 9:52pm

Less than 24hrs to go...:eek:

siltirocker · 11-08-2009 3:00am

Seeing as about 90% of us who regulary post on this thread are going to be in Shannon/Dublin in the next week or two getting our flights over, i thought i would remind everyone to pop into Hughes&Hughes in their respective airports and pick up this months Q magazine for air-time flight reading,

''This months Q interviews Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder on being in the World's biggest cult band, , , , , ,etc''

They're on the cover aswell!:D

dimejinky99 · 11-08-2009 9:06am

did anyone else get that mail from tenclub? about the second chance tickets for SBE? they had another 25 pairs...
i got it when we got here yesterday but i also got the mail saying theyd sold out...wonder if everyone got sorted for this gig..

redmosquito · 11-08-2009 9:11pm

F**k me, four songs into the shepards bush set and they drop All along the Watchtower, first special guest Ronnie Wood, and theres hours to go. I am even more jealous now, actually sickened!

therecklessone · 12-08-2009 10:56am

That was pretty amazing.

fortuneg · 12-08-2009 1:39pm

My God what a gig!
Had a brilliant view from the front row of level 3.
Highlights included Ronnie Wood for All Along The Watchtower, the 3 Yield songs & State of Love and Trust.
Wasn't prepared to spend £20 on a poster (despite them being pretty good) so I grabbed one of the album promo ones from outside

siltirocker · 12-08-2009 2:59pm

Can anyone tell me how much tshirts/hoodies,etc where last night?

don't be saying stuff like that dime........

I kept checking the links for tickets even up to Sunday, but alas nothing - so I gave up then (okay I'm lying, I tried Monday too......)
would have loved to have been there, but them's the breaks......

lookin forward to reading some reviews from you guys later this evening......

Tom65 · 12-08-2009 3:57pm

I enjoyed that gig

Crowd were in good voice, floor looked mad from level 3. Too many thoughts to sum up right now.

did you fly back from gatwick this morning wearing a spurs jersey by any chance? :P

that was the best gig I have ever been to. I stood with goosebumps nearly every five seconds and when Ronnie wood came out I just stood in awe. It was unreal!
