Went last night..

Kayne West sucked.. he was turned down heaps.. also had to wait 45mins from when he finished too when U2 started..

They on the other hand were awesome.. had a great mix of tracks.. Funniest was the look on bono's face when he went to release the kite/balloons and someone grabbed it.. thought he was about to jump in and punch on with him..

great production, sound was great as well.. was standing about 10 m from the stage.. i'll post some phone pics if I get a chance..

Photos:

- couldn't help it.. but took this at the motor show

Videos:

hmm.. i've got 3pg files but not allowed to upload them.. i'll put them on my hosting server..

you'll need something like media player classic to play them.. quality isn't the best as the bass just blows out the microphone

On Stage with the ShowGirl

Bono was on stage with Kylie Minogue in Sydney tonight, performing a pop-perfect version of Kylie's 'Kids'.

'Ladies and gentleman we are in the company of greatness tonight, ' said Kylie, about an hour into her second comeback show at the Sydney Entertainment Centre. 'Put your hands together for ... Bono!'

'And we'll paint by numbers

Till something sticks

Don't mind doing it for the kids...'

As if the audience weren't already elated at seeing Kylie back on stage following her illness, the arrival of Bono raised the temperature still higher.

'Here Kitty, Kitty!' he called, as Kylie - dressed as a cat and moving as gracefully - danced with him through a flawless rendition of her 2000 hit. By the end of the song she was on her knees, saying 'all you need to do is make some noise...'

Adam, Larry and Edge were also enjoying Kylie's comeback tonight - taking advantage of the one night off in the band's series of three Sydney shows.

Didn't see U2, not a big fan... but we did go see Pearl Jam. And I haven't seen them before, so for me, they were fabulous. Please excuse the dodgy pics, I think they're okay for a phone!

i think u were 1 of the few that did. a lotta of people incl. me were bitterly disappointed.

$100+ & didnt play half the classics.

btw, anna did u go to the brisbane show where they played jeremy? cos that's 1 song they didnt play @ the 1st & 2nd syd. shows. ( went 2 the 1st worked the 2nd & will work the 3rd on sat.) most pearl jam fans agree 2003 was miles better. (i listened to it live on radio.)

They are in Melb now, Bono would have come to our motorkhana - but since he drives a Cortina, it was broken. They liked their signed photos though...
