Pearl Jam European Tour

Saw that the Berlin gig says it starts at 7. Doors at 4.30. Be unreal if that was actually the case

10c doors at 4!

The excitement is starting to build now. We're flying out for Amsterdam at 6.15am this Sunday morning, I can't f**king wait.

I originally had accommodation in Amsterdam booked for 4 nights at about €750 with free cancellation. Then yesterday, I found a couple of really nice apartments on AirBnb for €450. 2 nights in the city centre, then 2 nights out right beside the Ziggo Dome.

I'm not normally one to get too carried away by savings or frugality (hey, that's definitely a flaw!) but I'm absolutely delighted with that saving. With that, I was then able to pay for my flight and accommodation for Berlin.

Anyway, I'm not just making this post to say 'sure I'm deadly', but maybe offer a tip or two...

1) For anyone who doesn't already know this, and who still has 'free cancellation' available on their original hotel booking for the tour, AirBnb can save you real money.

2) Anyone still looking for a ticket, like some posters in the last few pages, the facebook fan pages that Mushy posted are your best bet. A friend of mine today got a 10C GA ticket for Amsterdam 1 on the European Tour 2018 page. A lot of 10C ticket buyers are only getting rid of their spare tickets now it seems.

Ok, safe travels to everyone, hope you have a ball.

Yep, I've my last job tonight and then we head out Sunday as well.

I'm starting to get a bit carried away, to the point that I'm here pricing a late addition of Krakow to the list

Thanks very much Finno, we'll be doing a few gigs later this year in Malahide, Swords and city centre if you get the chance/persuasion to go again.

Need to see ye in cork again.

Wish was seeing them more than once (Pearl Jam, no offence). Almost tacked on Lisbon or Madrid but funds wouldn't allow it. 3.5 hours minimum in Berlin will do though

Cyprus Avenue is class, probably be January before we're back in it unfortunately. I'd love to do it more than once a year.

Tauron Arena isn't it? Interested to see how it goes, not just because can't make shows but I'm in Krakow for Iron Maiden in July.

Yeah, the Tauron Arena. It's supposed to be a fine venue, and I think it's new enough too.

That's a great set Maiden are playing on this tour, would love to go see them.

Think Swords will be November, just waiting on it to be confirmed at the moment.

For anyone in the Drogheda area, we're in McHugh's next Saturday night, the 16th.

Might be seeing the Maiden gig in Milan the Monday after, very much on the fence about it though

I was planning on going to the Berlin pre-party, but my flight from Krakow doesn't land in Berlin until after 10pm. I'll probably just head straight for Berghain in that case

If you have a chance to go to Maiden, do it! They're playing in Waldebuhne next week, a few of the PJem guys are going over to it. I'd love to, but I'm pretty close to broke now!

Anyone else flying to London for the gig on the 19th at 11.50? I shall be doing a solo run with a big stupid smile on my face all day.

Also doing Berlin - not solo for that one thankfully - seeing them there for the third time, albeit a different venue this time.

Same, flying into city airport at 13.20. Staying in the good hotel near the royal Victoria docks and the Emirates cable car line which goes direct to the o2. Going to do the Thames clipper tour too.

Was in the Olympic stadium last year for GNR and there's a few nice spots but expensive enough.

I wouldn't be the biggest Iron Maiden fan but just had a look at it and it looks like a cool pub and a very short distance from where I'm staying thanks

Aahh all starts tonight, too excited. Merch doesn't look too interesting, all grey and black but might push out the boat
