This guy gets it.
Yup.
I think I've said somewhere before that the 2003 boots give me a headache when listening with earphones, and I'd say it's the hot mastering. To see what I mean compare how much better Bu$hleaguer sounds on the PJ20 soundtrack to the original boot...

I don't agree with this. The shows weren't Ten heavy. You still got songs from No Code and Binaural. To me 2005 was the beginning of the end. It was a great tour but they weren't touring on new music and Ten started creeping in as the set staples.cutuphalfdead wrote:WtOB? wrote:cutuphalfdead wrote:Great tour, but the beginning of the end for Pearl Jam.
Cmon dude, the beginning of the end was the 2006 tour.
Nah, 2003 was when they became self aware and started the whole "Pearl Jam live: the celebration" thing. It's the attitude I think that ultimately led to where they are right now. "Look how awesome we are, all we have to do is show up and it's a party".

Champaign impressed on paper, not so much by ear. That was one of the hyped shows of 2003, IMO it disappoints.

I'm not crazy about Champaign either.
Nashville, Lexington and Bonner Springs are great, though.
I've always been a big fan of the first Irvine show too.
