Notes (from 5H):
Unusual 'Better Man' opener; the crowd gets to sing the first verse. Animated Mike with solos behind his head for 'Go,' flicking out picks to the crowd, jumps and kicks throughout the show. Ed gets a great response to his "No War No Way" t-shirt early in the set when he shows it to the crowd. Ed makes a point of introducing Matt to the Melbourne crowd as being his first time here (with PJ), and later introduces Boom to the crowd. The mirrorball drops down for 'Wishlist,' with stars as a backdrop on the screen behind the band. Ed sings, "I wish I were the sound of so many protestor's hands upraised toward the sky," and there's a little extended guitar ending. 'Tremor Christ' is a surprise. Emotional version of 'Off He Goes'. Apparently members of Anthony Hurley's family were stage right throughout the show.
After 'Elderly Woman,' Ed acknowledges those in the back with the "big fucking poster with writing on it." (The sign says, "drop the leash".) He continues, "We're only pointing them out because it's good to see there's still dreamers alive in the year 2003. Don't remember the chords ... don't remember the words ... remember the feeling."
After an emotional 'Black,' Ed and Stone applaud Mike's solo. Ed introduces Mike, Stone and the "still victorious Jeff Ament." Then he mentions that Mike and Jeff are at the same level ... they are both victorious, leading to a song that sounds like it could be about a guy from Australia: 'Leatherman.'
An audience member invades the stage during 'DTE.' Security tries to remove him but Ed encourages him to sing along, places the mask on him and Ed attempts to dance with him. He falls to his knees in mock embarrassment, Ed promptly jumps on his shoulders and he holds Ed up for quite a while as Ed sings. He "throws" Ed off and Ed responds with mock wrestling moves. Ed pushes him back on his knees and sings into his face. At the end of the song he leaves after hugging Ed, Jeff and Mike; Ed quips, "I hope they feed you in jail." (A number of others try to invade the stage but are stopped by security.) This seemed to bring up the energy for Baba to close with full house lights up.
