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..

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.)

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
