A great show you might pass up because 2000 had so many standouts. Of the Girl was a great opening, early set Grievance, TREMOR CHRIST, punk version of Can't Help Falling in Love, awesome 1st encore, Footsteps with harmonica and a great Baba O!
Just redeemed a DL code for this, thanks
Hey! You should've told me about Ed's flub in Grievance. I want my money back!
I didn't see one of those "lets talk about the 2000 tour" threads. Feel free to merge, delete, derail, whatever I don't care. I've got a specific inquiry regarding choosing a couple US 2000 shows that best represent the group at that time, but feel free to use this thread for 2000 tour discussion in general. I don't care.
I discovered PJ through the Verona 2000 boot when I was 16 years old in 2000 and I played those discs over and over as a kid learning to play the guitar. I listened to that bootleg before I heard any other PJ records. My favorite material were the Binaural songs. Grievance, Breakerfall, Nothing as it seems, etc. Subsequently the first PJ record I owned after the Verona boot was Binaural and one by one I listened back to the earlier records. I'm definitely a big from of the Vitalogy through Binaural period.
Anyway I've been revisiting these 2000 boots lately. I have no desire to have hundreds of Pearl Jam boots on my hard drive. I'm not THAT big of a fan, but I would like a couple top notch shows from Europe and the USA to have in my music collection. I have Verona and Milan from Europe. I saw many recommending Katowice II and I just listened to it and found it pretty underwhelming compared to Verona and Milan.
For the USA I've heard Boise and Seattle II and Las Vegas recommended. Any others I should consider? I'm posting this on Red Mosquito because I know that no one hates Pearl Jam quite like you guys do and that you'll steer me in the right direction.

My favorite US 2000 shows are probably:
West Palm Beach (the one that opens with "Oceans") Saratoga Springs St. Louis Kansas City Houston (the one that opens with "Oceans")
This is a great list. I would also add that Chicago, Toronto, Portland and San Diego are must-haves as well. While a noteworthy show for them legacy-wise, Las Vegas is generally overrated, imo. It's lower-middle of the pack for me.

Jones Beach 3, which has a good amount of focus on No Code, is one of my favorites from this tour as well.
And just full of great performances too. The end of the main set goes Thin Air, Off He Goes, Black, Jeremy, Immortality, and they're all super solid. I think he forgets the lyrics in Immortality, but it's such an otherwise great version that you forget by the end. And Jeremy is that perfect example of when you see it live and it starts and you're like, "Oh, okay, Jeremy," but by the end you're pogoing like it's your first time seeing it.
likes rhythmic things that butt up against each other

This is me everytime I see it live. By the time the song climaxes I'm utterly enthralled and losing my mind.

Them ending the first encore of Boston III with it was that exact experience for me.
