Notes (from 5H):
This show was relayed to Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne radio (similar to the third Melbourne show in 1998). Although described by those who took in all three Sydney shows as more powerful, a few songs ('Thumbing My Way' and 'Ghost' for example) are still not really delighting all fans.
A powerful start but the momentum lags with 'Cropduster' followed by 'Dissident.' After some guitar noodling and Ed's commenting that he can't hear his guitar, he introduces 'Thumbing My Way' as a song about hitchhiking your way through a broken heart. The whole band is on, even Stone really getting into his solos, and seemed a bit flat the first two nights. Humorous changes to 'DTE:' "Those ignorant Maoris got nothing on me" and "I am the first man to play my penis!" The silver jacket and Bush mask are back for 'Bushleaguer.'
Introduced with, "Ah, we just got an idea here," 'Alive' finally makes the setlist, bringing everyone to their feet. Ed starts to bag on Adelaide at the top of the second encore, then speaks of that weekend's worldwide peace marches and how George Bush and the Republican administration doesn't represent the band. He shows the crowd the surfboard that Mark Richards gave him and says that if it is crowded surfing and someone gives him a wave, he'll give them backstage passes. Ed talks again about Pete Townshend, what an inspiration he's been, the child porn allegations and how they'll get sorted out, leading to 'TKAA.'
