Vault #3 - Constitution Hall, 9-19-1998 (vinyl, cd, digital)

[super nintendo chalmers]

Exactly. It was the world series.

World series you say - how many countries were competing?

Fuck you. Go watch some cricket.

The point is Philly is a huge sports town, you dweebs. The home team was playing for the championship, across the fucking street, so yeah the band would be stupid not to acknowledge it. I honestly could give a shit about the Phillies, but to gripe about the crowd being interested about how their team was doing that night/week is stupid.

My point is: Who gives a shit? I went to see a concert, not to go to a fucking frat party. Not my peeps at all. It was like being trapped in the third circle of hell.

It's a fucking Pearl Jam show in Philly for christ's sake. A good chunk of the crowd is going to be lunkheads anyway.

[super nintendo chalmers]

Sorry if that came of as ornery. I tend to get cranky after lunch. Stand by my cricket comment though.

Anyway, I would like to really express thanks to forum member yofismom for helping me procure the vinyl. I haven't been this stoked about anything PJ related in awhile. Anyway, she's great, thanks again.

[Kevin Davis]

This is probably the best version of "All Those Yesterdays" they've ever played. Lucky that we got such a nice recording of it.

Now they just need to release the Atlanta show so that we can have the best version of "No Way" they've ever played.

yeah, all those yesterdays sounds incredible here...what an amazing song. They did a great rendition on 2012 too.

G dangit! How great is Black circa 1998


Just perfect. Tight, slow pace, still rocking the "doo do do doo dooo" up until the song crescendos and mike takes over a tasty emotional lead....

Eds voice is fantastic too.

[VinylGuy]

Havent heard Black yet...im kinda worn out of that song. The same with Better Man, i cant stand it anymore.

Fucking bootlegs.

[darthvedder]

They should play Act Of Love more often.

They should play anything from Mirrorball more often.

[VinylGuy]

True.
They should do Song X too...

[Kevin Davis]

I've played it twice--this is a tremendous show. It's a shame about "Push Me Pull Me"--it's a true rarity and this is a much better-than-decent performance of it, and the only full one pre-2009 which in itself makes it pretty special. But what's here is still great. Keep 'em coming, vaultkeepers.

[ridleybradout]

Yeah, real shame about 'Push Me Pull Me'. I wish Ed incorporated the 'I've had enough, I've had it all...' outro bit into the current rendition.

Has anyone had a go at patching it up with the audience source yet?

[Birds in Hell]

From memory, I think they tackled a full PMPM on at least one other occasion during the 1998 US tour. One of the Camden shows, maybe?

[Kevin Davis]

I think the Camden one was only a partial.

[Birds in Hell]

Oh, you may well be right. It's been a long time since I heard it.

second show in camden 1998 they played it full

[dprival78]

'act of love' sounds pretty awesome here. a simple song, but they're rockin' it.

and i just love late 90's eddie.

[Biff Pocoroba]

Yeah, I've always liked Act of Love too.

[Joe Z]

Have the "extra copies" of the vinyl that were going to be made to non-10C members gone live yet?

[Oh, Jimmy]

Have the "extra copies" of the vinyl that were going to be made to non-10C members gone live yet?

Don't think so. I'm assuming they'll take care of any bad presses/lost in the mail/damages packaging etc, take a tally, then they'll be on sale for an hour or so.

I just listened--they go through the full song but most of it is just Eddie reciting the lyrics without the band.
