Also it occurs to me I never posted about my last gig prior to Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails with Jane's Addiction at the 02.

Jane's Addiction were good, opening with Three Days was an odd move (basically the equivalent of Bon Jovi opening with Dry County), but it was still pretty awesome. Unfortunately, I was right up in the fourth level seating area (the highest level), so I couldn't make out the finer details of how the band looked that well. Still an electrifying performance, and their encore of Jane Says with steel drums and the band sitting with acoustic guitars at various points around the stage was very cool.

NIN were awesome, plain and simple. Of course, I was still bloody miles away, but I could still see enough of how energetic (and perhaps slightly deranged) the band were, and I could hear how well they pummeled out the songs. Was great to hear a few songs that I didn’t see them play live last time I saw them … Down In It being the main one that springs to mind. And a special guest appearance by the legend that is Gary Numan to play a couple of songs to perform a couple of his song (Metal and Cars) with the band was definitely something to be remembered!
