What is the best live bootleg you've ever heard?

[mikejasond]

I want to listen to a good one while at work....hopefully one that's on pearljambootlegs.org <_< I dont have any of the professional ones. Basically something easily accessible that I could listen to

These are always great to listen to:

3/5/98 Melbourne
11/3/00 Boise

I randomly picked one from the 2006 tour and I think they're playing the whole ST album O__O

The show has been pretty amazing so far starting with huge hits Go, Corduroy, Animal, Elderly woman, then into ST.....Its great hearing them play a live album like this at a time when Eddie could still sing.

But I dont want just any bootleg you're listening to, I want the best bootleg out of all bootlegs

But I can move my last post to there

We like to keep things organized around here. So if you can start the "best bootleg you've ever heard" discussion in a more general thread like the one CopperTom posted, we prefer you do that rather than start a thread for every thought someone may have about Pearl Jam. It is what separates us from the official forum.

That, and we hate Pearl Jam.

I think picking an overall best may be difficult due to people's preferences of drummer, era, sound, etc. That being said, here are ten all-time great shows that everyone seems to love:

6/18/1992 - Zurich, Switzerland
3/29/1994 - St. Petersburg, FL, USA
3/17/1995 - Melbourne, Australia
9/29/1996 - Randalls Island, New York, NY, USA
3/05/1998 - Melbourne, Australia
9/16/1998 - Mansfield, MA, USA
8/27/2000 - Saratoga, NY, USA
10/09/2000 - Chicago, IL, USA
10/03/2005 - Philadelphia, PA, USA
7/18/2006 - San Francisco, CA, USA

And here are 10 all-time great shows not as frequently talked about due to sound issues or obscure locations, etc:

12/08/1993 - Seattle, WA, USA
3/13/1994 - Chicago, IL, USA
3/08/1995 - Adelaide, Australia
11/04/1996 - Hamburg, Germany
11/17/1996 - Budapest, Hungary
3/11/1998 - Sydney, Australia
6/14/2000 - Prague, Czech Republic
4/21/2003 - Lexington, KY, USA
9/12/2005 - London, ON, Canada
9/09/2006 - Marseille, France


I'm not counting anything post-2006 because the band clearly just cannot play with the overall fury they did up to this point. A lot of people will disagree and there are plenty of post-2006 shows that I love, but it just isn't the same.

Someone needs to hook this kid up with the Soundboard Remaster Series.
