Disclaimer: Owner of all 72 official PJ bootlegs. This San Bernardino bootleg is one of the low points in the third leg of the massive 2000 tour. Granted, at 66th out of 72 shows, the band was understandably very tired. This show and the next one in Sacramento show clearly how tired the band was, before they got a last rush of adrenaline to finish the final four or five shows with a bang. In a very unusual move, the band starts tonight's show with "Rearviewmirror," which was almost always used to close the first or second set. Surprisingly, opening the show with this rave-up actually works, instrumental jam session and all. Unfortunately, after a pretty good start, this performance starts to drag with sluggish tempos and many musical errors. Things bottom out in the encore, with horrendous takes on "Insignificance" and "Elderly Woman Behind the Counter..." which are full of bum notes and forgotten lyrics. The band does manage to perk up a little before the end of the show though, with strong takes on "Crazy Mary" and the cool B-side "U." Watch for Eddie's chant of "let's hear it for LOVE!" during the jam in "Daughter," which is about as cheesy as Robert Plant's plea for people to remember laughter in classic live recordings of "Stairway to Heaven." One interesting aspect of this bootleg is the presence of one very loud-mouthed fellow near the soundboard, who manages to say the F-word many times on tape. Good for him.
