1. That song sounds WAY better live than on the album. Very cool you attended that (those?) show(s).

    Didn't they play the rarely-performed "No Way' as well?
  2. I only went to night one and I don't believe that was that night.

    Could have been done on night two though

    36) Black - 06.14 Praha ..classic version.....
    37) Fuckin Up - 06.09 Eifel ..really good version...
    38) Yellow Ledbetter 06.03 Glasgow ..solid version to end Pt 1....

    3hrs,5 min..this mix is from the first 14 gigs in Europe 2000...

    Praha IMO, is the best gig out of the first 14 shows in Europe,and a top 3 or 4 out of the 25 shows from this leg..For some reason,this show was not recognized by the band as a top gig,as it was not given the ape/man status.

    San Sebastian is great for the first set.But,once the encore starts,it goes downhill.Alive is a disaster.The show is really two extremes.One part great,the other many mistakes....Last Kiss and Immortality are a mess.But the first disc is so good,IMO,it is a must listen.And to hear Alive get so messed up,the band stop and start it again,you have to hear it to believe it........
  4. How could they mess up Alive? They've played it so many times.

    Too much Spanish wine, I guess.
  5. You have to hear it...
  6. I will go and download a few of the 2000 European leg shows from pearljambootlegs.org now and get back to you soon. I'll make that version of Alive a priority.


  7. One - Barcelona 30 jun 2009
  8. don't mean to distract you from your 2000 mix .. but i'd like to make a statement of the "The Great Western Forum" bootlegs
    13-14 July 1998 Inglewood .. with a cool The KKK Took My Baby Away with Johnny Ramone closing night 2

    audience source said but very very good ...
  9. I love the 1998 tour. I am (once again) being a spoiled brat but wish they'd offically release all of these shows - or several of them, anyway.

    1998 has all the best songs and setlists - not too many covers and/or b-sides - just clean setlists full of classic PJ tunes. I appreciate that you (Ronnie) and Ed might disagree with me here - I'm still growing.
  10. Originally posted by RUMMY:[..]

    The fact that PJ released their (Vs and Vitalogy) deluxe eidtions as companion pieces makes me think that if they think they go together it doesn't matter which goes first. Eventually, you'll probably just end up listening to the ten "normal" tracks on Vitalogy - I do, anyway.

    Don't move on to No Code before listening to Vitalogy, however.


    Well, it's Vitalogy that I do have.
  11. how can you have it and not listened to it yet????

    hehehe
  12. Corduroy...Better Man...Not For You...Immortality....Last Exit....Spin the Black Circle....Nothingman...

    Put the darn thing in your CD player and enjoy!
