Pearl Jam

Monday night was an awesome night. Having had tickets to see Pearl Jam for months it was the night.
Kim was supposed to be going but gave her ticket to a friend as she wanted to stay with baby which was unfortunate as it was an awesome night and Pearl Jam don't tour the UK that often.
I was off that day anyway and afternoon went to town with Kim & Baby for a few hours. He was really good fast asleep till we got into Boots and Kim wanted to try sun hats on him I don't think he was too impressed as he awoke then and wouldn't settle for a bit after that till we took him into M&S for a feed and then Debenhams for a change and in Monsoon where someone mistakenly thought I was babies mum thats the 2nd time now I don't think I look mum material. Thats where I bought 2 dresses for £100 couldn't decide on either. One I've already seen and tried on but decided on a bigger size and another I'd not seen before but try it on at home as couldn't try in the shop as it was time to get home and get sorted for the evening ready to see PJ and for baby.
Little late getting back but still me, Paul, Lorrie and John set off. We were going to meet the rest of the guys there.
Running all over the place in Manchester for something to eat. I have visited Manchester a few times but didn't know of the place 'Print works' eating establishment. It reminded me of being abroad or something as it was quite cool and different. We couldn't find anywhere to eat tried a few resturants but full or long time to get served as many of PJ fans has the same ideas as us. After trying like 3-4 we ended up in Subway. Just over £5 for a sandwich couldn't believe it in a place in Cleveleys one is only £2.20 pricey for a sandwich never the less quickly ate ate a 12" £5 sandwich and made ourselves to the gig where we met Spikeh then John A, Em and Miller.  
I was glad there was only one supporting act Gomez it would have been cool if it was Kings Of Leon supporting but Gomez okay I didn't know they were oldies hehe.
The whole evening PJ/Eddie were very energetic. If Im honest I only know so many of their songs but still they played the ones I like and 'Black' as always was just so good as it has a special meaning to Eddie and he didn't used to sing it love the lyrics 'I hope someday you'll have a beautiful life' who ever the song is about and what happened takes a lot for someone to say that to another.
Got some really good photos and video footage so the new camera turned out well even thought it took me a while to find out how to record.
The MEN is always hot and sweaty and very little air conditioning so when its over its much of a relief to get outside for cool air and away from other sweaty people.
I hope they don't leave it too long to tour again.
