Too soon? Wasn’t there a really bad show somewhere on either the 2000 or 2003 tour? Should San Fran ‘95 be on that list?

poll updated

thanks for your suggestions!

personally - could listen to them tuning up in 1995 and it would still be better than anything post-2016

ESPECIALLY Neil Jam

but that’s just me

I would say something from 2008. That’s my least favorite tour but there are still always great moments

The 2008-2009 shows weren't anything to write home about either.

The one Philly show in '09 they were drunk and kept checking a baseball game score.

From the ones I have seen:

Rock Werchter 2010: Them Crooked Vultures played the same day. Guys had obviously been hanging out and drinking. Arcade Fire, who played before Pearl Jam, were 10 times better.

Rock Werchter 2007: QOTSA played the same day. Guys had obviously been hanging out and drinking. Arctic Monkeys, who played before Pearl Jam, were 10 times better.

Not if you were there. NYC 08 and Chicago 09 are some of my favorite shows.

Something about this recap... It's everything you need to know about PRAMG PJ.

Definitely the MSG 08 shows were great and get a bad rep from the backup singers…but as an experiment I thought it worked better than people give credit.
