Just re-watched the "Saturday Night" performance from 2011 Vienna and it really was incredible. Am I overhyping it? It really makes me debate going to one of New Jerseys stadium shows this summer in hopes of something remotely cool as this. Matt confirmed they are using the car stage for the stadium shows in the US, so that would be a cool thing to see then the same old circle stage as well.

well I decided not to go....the "best" thing I could get is Bobby's solo in Bad name and Jon's rusty voice..saved 100€ .

Wow.........

Any news on the secret gig?

Since they used the new stage in Sofia I doubt this gig will still take place...

They took pics with a few lucky fans today and had a press conference. The stage is still being built and as far as i know there was no secret anything today ;)

No set info?

dont they have 2 like the last tour?

That wasn't what I was referring to. They surely have a minimum of 2, if not even 3 stages they carry around in Europe. But the band talked about playing that secret gig in order to try out how all the stuff with the new stage works. Since they already played their Bulgarian show on that new stage they might not feel the need to doing another try-out today.

Agreed, Vienna 2011 was one of the best shows I've been too. It was special. Opening the encore with "Whole Lot Of Leaving" was weird, but it worked and got a surprisingly good reaction, and the rest of the encore couldn't have been better. And my appreciation for WLOL made a big big step forward in that show.

The overall atmosphere was amazing. If thas would have been my last BJ gig it would have been ending on a high point. Let's hope my Richie-less gig in Munich will not be my last...
