PJ - Marlay Park - Sat 22 June 24

One thing that's been bothering my missus since last night...

I nearly tripped over some loon kneeling on the ground, who I presumed was tying his laces, as everyone was moving towards the exit. Turns out, he was proposing. Does anyone know if she said yes?

Good to hear about the Gold Circle been large

Is it the same setup for all shows?

Had a great time! Thanks to my bro for cajoling me into going 😊 hearing so many of the old classics was unexpected, but very much appreciated. Little hoarse today, but the three beers I had to drink fast at the end because I couldn't find the intended recipients may have helped with that. Sold the 4th one for a tenner to a very happy guy. Great crowd and a speedy recovery to the PA guy. Always nice to see the Gardai hammering c×nt's who really ask for it. Roll on LCD Soundsystem 😃

Fantastic show from Pearl Jam. Hard to beat that kind of setlist, especially given there was always going to be a few songs from the new album, which is great by the way. Sometimes it's only when you hear songs being played live that you realise just how good a band is. If I was being really nitpicky I'd like to have heard another deep cut or two. Something like Red Mosquito or Dissident. But it was great to hear songs like Wishlist and Corduroy.

I'm not really into what a band's politics are but fair play to Eddie Vedder, he's informed about things and you know it's coming from the heart. And what a lovely gesture to dedicate Black to the young Dublin girl who died suddenly last week. You'd hope the family heard about the dedication and got some kind of solace from it.

I have to say I was enraged to read about the PA guy being attacked. I hope he's ok. If anyone knows him and is reading this maybe they could let us know how he is? Hard to believe someone would do something like that when people are on such a high from what was a great gig. The scumbag who did it deserves to be in a world of pain today. Hopefully he's charged so he can be named and shamed.

As for Marlay Park, it's an awful place to get to and from if you're relying on public transport. The beer queues were laughably bad, it just doesn't seem to be well run. I won't be hurrying back. But Pearl Jam were worth it. They are legends.

I saw that guy climb the scaffolding and attack the steward announcer guy... what a pr**k... as others said it took a lot of people to subdue him...

i hope he got a fair few digs and is very sore today...

i was thinking if this was France / Italy or even the US.... he would've been 'subdued' a lot quicker..

on a more positive note... i was chatting to a girl from Chicago who has seen PJ many times and is going to the London gig.. she was telling me Ed's jersey is an NFL jersey of Walter Payton... a legendary player for the Bears, nicknamed 'Sweetness'... he retired and did. a lot of good for others throughout his life begore dieing in 1999...

she said Jeff's jersey 33... was something to do with their albums?!

literally said the same to my husband last night, he hasnt aged a day alright

Anyone know what the song was Eddie Vedder sang after he talked about Shane McGowan and Sinead O Connor?

Sorry for jumping in here as going to the Green Day gig this week & only realised that you have to pre-book the parking and its all booked out. Did anyone try to drive up and pay at the gate? Or is there anywhere within a 30 minute walk that I could park in? I had a look at the Marathon Bus service and its last bus leaves Dundrum at 6.30pm, I may not get out of work on time to make that bus.

Happy to walk 30 minutes and pay for parking - but don't wanna be driving around aimlessly

Well spotted! Yeah they changed shirts when they went off just before the encore

Wow, what a show,  still buzzing after it - can't wait for the bootleg to surface 

Hearing "Release" to open and just thought we could be in for a really great setlist .  5 songs in and I thought maybe they'd ripped up the script and decided to play a greatest hits set!

Then the new stuff came -  I have to say the new material sounded great live and it's a strong album, been getting into it in the past month or so, and many new songs seemed well received.

Highlight was "Black" for me, never heard a bad version of it tbh but it was powerful, especially  after the dedication, and seemed like great crowd involvement.

Eddie's voice sounded perfect too, was wondering how it might be now with none of us getting any younger!
It's tantalising alright to see the extra song they would've played if they had time but nevermind - hey, as the last poster said, we got 7 tracks off Ten 😀

even tall were complaining

Worst comes to worst, Dundrum shopping centre is less than a 30 minute walk.

The lad up high on the platform on the left was a PITA, kept repeating his spiel every 5 seconds.

Fella on the right further out was a bit of craic.

It is the ultimate pox of a venue.
