    All that said. Ed just sold out the point Solo and its twice as big as any other other venue on this tour and the biggest non festival show he's ever played alone so...maybe.

    Worst i ever experienced was at PJ in The Point in 2000.
    i was at the front of the barrier, just behind the 'Pit' , i had 4 tipsy Americans behind me. They proceeded to roar "Woooooooooo" continually , until i turned round and asked them to "shut the fc uk up...please"
    They did ..... :D
    Stay quiet, or sing the songs..... WHY shout and roar during them !! :rolleyes::D

    My wife was outside waiting to collect me, and she said it sounded amazing!!

    Hah brilliant. I hope you didn't pay too much. I was down at the back near the low level tiers. Missed Paddy Casey and just in time for Pearl Jam (bro was driving there).

    I had the leaving cert then in a few days after. Actually I just realised that the concert was this day 17 years ago...

    That was 06, unless he supported 00 too? 06 was my first time, I remember the crowd going mental from Animal through to ****in Up, so about 95% of it.

    Reminiscing...I remember the Fastbacks in Millstreet in 1996...Christ they were fairly rubbish... I'd take Paddy Casey anyday over them

    Yea i agree.there are tons of live bootlegs out there, live dvds/blu rays, live cds etc.go on you tube there's wall to wall live pj stuff.
    there's only so many times you can listen to the songs live.a new album in conjunction with the above would be a better way to go.

    They are touring next year and I heard it's 4 continents so perhaps Europe is in there. No word in them recording though
