  1. Originally posted by ymalkiel:With the PJ tour kicking much ass and the recent "full album" shows they've been playing, it got me thinking...

    Suppose Pearl Jam decided that this fall, to celebrate their 25th anniversary properly, they announced that they would be playing residencies (taking a page out of the U2 playbook), 10 shows in each of three cities -- LA, New York, and Chicago. Each show would see the band playing one of their albums in full:

    Night 1 -- Ten
    Night 2 -- Vs.
    Night 3 -- Vitalogy
    Night 4 -- No Code
    Night 5 -- Yield
    Night 6 -- Binaural
    Night 7 -- Riot Act
    Night 8 -- Pearl Jam ("Avocado")
    Night 9 -- Backspacer
    Night 10 -- Lightning Bolt

    They'd play the album in full, and then assorted hits, covers, and rareties, or even throw in the b-sides from said album.

    Which shows would you go see?

    For me, No Code and Yield top the list, followed by Riot Act.
    All 10 in NY

  3. After doing some setlist hunting I think this is the full list, we both were forgetting No Code in Moline '14:

    1992-03-13 - Munich (full Ten)
    2006-09-19 - Turin (full PJ)
    2014-10-17 - Moline (full No Code)
    2014-10-20 - Milwaukee (full Yield)
    2016-04-16 - Greenville (full VS)
    2016-04-29 - Philadelphia (full Ten)
    2016-05-11 - Toronto (full Binaural)

    Am I forgetting/missing any other full album show? (Even if it's not a full album in the sense of all songs played in the same order as they were on their albums).
  4. There are quite a few 1992 shows where they played most of Ten...Milan comes to mind where only Oceans wasn't played.

    A great show to get is Atlanta 1994. It has 10 of 11 Ten songs (no Oceans again) and 11 of 12 Vs songs (no Leash, unfortunately). It is also of very high sound quality.
  5. Thanks for the heads up reg. Atlanta '94 Matt. 95% full Ten and VS - something definitely unique. Gonna hunt for it now
  6. Absolutely in NYC......

    10 , Vs and No Code are a must for live performances.......followed by Vitalogy and Yield for me...
  7. Look for the JWB remaster version.There's a whole bunch of others (Melbourne 95, Berlin 96, Seattle 98, etc) you'll find along with it.
  8. That Atl '94 show is legendary , its pure greatness.........plus it was right after Cobain killed himself , so there is some extra intensity/drama added..
  9. I have a serious lack of pre-2000 bootlegs that I should start fixing soon. 2000 and 2006 are filled with incredible shows though so I've been busy, there's my excuse! haha. Will look for that JWB remaster of Atlanta 96 to start with, thank you both again

    Once you get into boots, it's an endless journey.
  11. Listening to Greenville (finally) - man, I love Vs.

    Hearing WMA live in is full glory (as opposed to the groovy acoustic performances from 2008) is great. I love the studio version but since it was almost-never played live I dropped down into 12th position in my own ranking of the songs.

    I don't think I can leave it there anymore. Problem is that no song from Vs (or Ten, for that matter) deserves to be put in "last place."
  12. No matter how many times I hear it, I'm still not digging the "slow down" portion of the Corduroy performances from this tour. I absolutely adore this song but ... well, I've harped on this enough.
