Hi there,

Yesterday night was just another amazing show, but as Mirella and Eddie
(during the show) said, the venue sucked!!!!!
It was way to big, can you imagine, 13,000 fans standing in a huge hall. The
sound was not that bad, I heard U2 playing there, which was much worse.

Here is a part of the setlist as far as I can remember, not the correct order.

long road
hail hail
once (they did it again)
animal
last exit
dissident
in my tree
[so far the right order, now what I can think off)

alive
black
jeremy
PORCH (yesyesyes)
Habit
lukin
sometimes
who you are
state
present tense
betterman
corduroy
immortality
mankind
even flow
rearviewmirror
blood
Rockin'in the free (last song)


So PJ didn't play daughter.

A few highlights:

- Eddie told the audience that he really flipped when he saw the size of the
venue in the morning. "If we would have known this, then we would have def.
played two shows in a smaller venue"

- The crowd started to yell EDDIE at some point. He answered: "yes, that is
my name" [smiled]. "do you know how to spell it?" Crowd: "E D D I E". "Yeah,
that is right, but I saw this girl with a t-shirt saying: EddY, fuck me!"
[smiled again] I should sue her about this misspelling"

- During Blood, Eddie climbed onto the speakers (but didn't dive). Then he
ran for the ladders (you know, the ones you need to climb up to the roof for
lightshow) and he flew over the audience with it. This was very cool. I hope
that someone video taped this. (by the way, the London shows videos are soon
spread all over the world, they rule!!).

- Eddie told the audience that they have true special feelings for this
country and in particular this place. He said he liked the show with the
fastbacks at Vera (in Groningen) last night (the secret gig) and that he
still remembers TIVOLI (yiha)

- For me it was the first time during this tour that I heared the crowd
singing so loud. I hope that the DAT recordings came out fine, without to
many audience, but I hardly doubt that. Alex recorded his tape at the
sounddesk, next to Brett. 

Well this is it.
When I have more i will def. post a longer review.

PS: the Amsterdam posters RULED!!!!!!
