that's an amazing and great work Ed .. very well done
i feel that for songs like Alive, Small town, Nothingman, Better man, Jeremy and alike an italian show is always, if not the best, a very very good choice.
something similar to Still haven't found.
@Mat .. it will end up to be a Monster mix and it could not be different for a detailed report of a PJ tour .. don't think in U2 style hehehe

I've have now learned that when PJ plays two nights in your town, it's best to get tickets for both shows.
U2 has 46 songs (aisde from never-been-released tracks) from a THREE-YEAR to choose from U22. Pearl Jam played 49 different songs in TWO NIGHTS in Toronto, 2011.

Originally posted by RUMMY:I hadn't realized that the Denmark tragedy was the last show on the European Tour. Did the accident occur DURING or AFTER the show? It appears that the show wasn't released as an official bootleg - understandably, of course.
The (unfortunate) thing about long mixes is that I rarley have enough time to listen to them from start to finish.
Great year to be both a U2 and PJ fan.

No. I only heard about it last week. I was wondering if some of the footage in PJ20 was also from that film. I am assuming it's quite good.
I've been listening to my Italy 2006 mix. Those truly were five great shows. The crowd sounds great. Were you at any (all?) of them?

during the show
"There were still 40,000 people out there. They were ready for the show to start again. They started singing, 'I'm still alive.' Alive was going to be the next song. That was when my brain clicked a switch. I knew I would never be the same."

here a "nice" article about the tragedy
I was all "concerted out" after seeing U2 so many times this summer that I was like "Ahhh I've had enough for now". Now I regret it. I've always loved this band since the first time someone showed me Alive. Ah well. Originally posted by RUMMY:[..]
Interesting read. It makes sense that the European Tour ended here. Embarrassingly, I initially thought it was a coincidence that the tragedy occurred on the last date as opposed to what really happened - them cancelling the remaining shows. Good for them. I am sure they put forth an extra something when they returned to Europe in 2003.
