Wow. I mean I haven’t listened to a lot of live stuff in the last year or two, but for me, that is always the best part of it all.

I just can’t dedicate so much music listening time to Pearl Jam

Seems like a bad investment of time at this point.

this needs to happen. Satan's Bed from that State College show is the first one that came to mind. The debut of Future Days. Got Some from Conan...

I love that Got Some performance. Gave me a lot of hope for Backspacer.

Yeah same here. Aside from Ed not having much mustard in a few spots I thought it was quite good.

I liked it too - the only time they ever played it in the proper key

I’ve just never gotten into listening to live shows, Pearl Jam or not. Much prefer albums.

I'm not nearly as big of a fan of the band as I once was. Honestly, I only listened to Gigaton once and I haven't really ever wanted to go back. But I've always found fans of this band to be generally good people, so that's why I'm signing up for this board. Hi, everybody

Hi Rager. What are your reference points for "good Pearl Jam"?

Everything through the self-titled Pearl Jam album works for me, with Vs to Binaural a cut above the others and No Code as the peak. Heck, even Backspacer is OK. The last two didn't do much for me.

I haven’t seen them live in 17 years, and never really cared for listening to live stuff at home, but I did just recently sit in a vr theater with my brother and watch a well-shot St Paul show from 2014 and was really surprised by how good it sounded.

THeyre aged but they sound good.

The band really still plays their assess off. Its ed that can really throw a bootleg listening experience out the window with his ranting and getting drunk.

But, overall, Pj still has it.

I don’t know if that particular show (10/19/2014, better than nothing videos on YouTube) is abnormally good or is just totally average. I’m not kidding when I say it’s been 17 years for me. But it hit me, my brother, and later my son and wife pretty hard. And I’m the only person in that group that’s ever spent money on a Pearl Jam record.

Let me take you to a show, McP

For whats its worth, my friend who was once obsessed with pearl jam but has since moved on (would fit right in on RM), thought that ST. Paul show was awful.

[E.H. Ruddock]

McP, I'll buy you tickets to a transformers movie

[McParadigm]

Yeah alright

[VinylGuy]

last time i saw them was in 2018 and it was so fucking good.

[tragabigzanda]

pearl jam sucks now

[Brett]

That run from Light Years > Sleight of Hand is probably the best overall album run in the catalog

I don't think I've ever agreed with you more than right now. Some of my favorite songs in there.
