#Best pearl jam bootlegs 2000 movie#

Each of the bootlegs has its own feel and originality. While there are a couple of noticeable exclusions (Black and Yellow Ledbetter were played at almost every show but aren't included), you can't argue with the selection of songs on this DVD. I've listened to a few of the official bootlegs and this DVD captures the feel of them very well. They've always got a certain raw energy, and combined with the casualness and spontaneity of Eddie Vedder they create an amazing experience at every show. Pearl Jam is a band that produces great studio albums, but truly shines live.

(Those of you with the bootleg of the second Seattle show, don't believe everything Eddie says about the crowd the night before, they were rockin' too!) This is easily one of the best shows I've ever been too. I finally got to go when I saw them play the first show in Seattle. Like I said, I've been a bit of a Pearl Jam fan since they've been around, but I've never gotten the chance to see them live. This video proves that Pearl Jam can still really rock hard. The 'movie' has a certain home-video quality (albeit a really GOOD home-video) that makes you feel closer to the band watching it. While this may sound like a half-assed production, it sure doesn't feel that way watching it. It was shot without a director by several of the bands touring personnel.

The Movie This DVD compiles 2 whole hours worth of concert footage from the two North American legs of their 2000 Binaural tour.

It's been 10 years and they're still around and rockin' hard, and this DVD proves it. Out of the big 4 that I was into back then (Including Nirvana, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains), Pearl Jam is the only one still alive and kicking. I've been a casual fan of Pear Jam since 1992 when they got really famous with all of the rest of my hometown Seattle grunge rock bands.
