Another 2 great nights in the Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam. I rocked out hard the first night, and chilled out blissfully the second night. This band have so many quality songs, they could have done Night 3 and 4 at the Ziggo and still not played similar set-lists on any night. An amazing back-catalogue of tunes, their shows are a real reward for fans.
'Man of the Hour' into 'Just Breathe' on Night 2 was the most emotional 1-2 I've felt since 'Black' into 'Come Back' in Berlin 2010 for the Roskilde anniversary. 'Just Breathe' didn't previously have that effect on me at gigs, but as it turns out some death in recent years has given the song new meaning.
I'm delighted to hear 'Metamorphosis 2' by Phillip Glass return as the band's walk-on music. It sets quite the tone in a darkened, packed, anticipating arena. Especially when the lads follow it up with a chilled song as their first of the set. It's just perfect.loveboat captain wrote:Home from Amsterdam after what has to go down as the best gig of my life. Night 1's set wasn't for everyone, but to have Eddie dedicated Down to me was a dream come true. Mind-blowing stuff. Whoever is going to the rest of the tour will have a ball, enjoy folks
That's amazing. I remember Eddie calling out the request, last person I thought it would be for was a Boardsie
Seriously though, brilliant stuff and it's testament to the band's dedication to fans.
I'm not sure if it's any of the band themselves, maybe a PA, but someone definitely keeps an eye on the 10C boards in the run up to a tour to take note of requests.
BTW love boat, I've read your request post on 10C. It brought a tear to my eye. I hope life is good man, and I can only imagine the elation you felt when you got Down in Amsterdam.

As love boat said, you are in for a treat folks. There might be some serious moaning elsewhere online about 'reduced show length', but don't let that get into your head.
My only negative, it's a big one and not related to the actual concert performances - The 10C ticket collection in Amsterdam, on both days, was a joke. I won't go on a long moan, just offer advice that if you are doing 10C collection in London, be prepared to queue for up to 1.5-2 hours. For example, one window/attendant to handle all of the surnames beginning in letters A-J, that kind of thing.
Since the Amsterdam shows, 10C have sent out an email for London 10C ticket holders making a special note that box office windows are extremely limited at the O2, and to allow plenty of time for ticket collection. I'm not going to London, but when I saw this it made me irk and gave me the impression that it will be a similar logistical nightmare at the O2 box office as it was at the Ziggo.0 -
