Reader Reviews
Disclaimer: Owner of all 72 official PJ bootlegs. For a Seattle band, Pearl Jam sure has a lot of guys from San Diego. It turns out that Eddie Vedder and Matt Cameron both grew up in the area, before heading north to an infinitely worse climate (and an infinitely better music scene). In this show, Pearl Jam puts on one of the better performances of the third leg of the 2000 world tour. In some of the other bootlegs around this immediate time period, the band sounds very fatigued because it was getting late in the tour. That's not the case in San Diego however, probably because Eddie and Matt are happy to be in their old stomping grounds and got some surfing in. The set list tonight contains some real surprises, like early appearances by the heavy rockers "Gods' Dice" and "Whipping" to really get the show off the ground. An emotional "Long Road" opens the show in dramatic fashion, and "Rearviewmirror" and "Soon Forget" appear in the middle of the first set, instead of in the encore like usual. The band shines in the rarities "Rival," "Immortality," and "In My Tree," all of which are performed in convincing fashion. Jeff Ament is also especially good tonight, making his mark in "Jeremy" and the jam session that finishes off "Daughter." In a surprise move, Eddie plays the Cat Stevens ballad "Don't Be Shy" in the encore, which works better than you might think. For you analytical types out there, this is the only show out of 47 American bootlegs that does not contain "Betterman."
