Now, to reiterate what so many others have said... this was a truly special night. By far my favourite show of all time, the best birthday present of all time. I can't stop listening to it... the high of finally hearing Baba, Breath, Footsteps, Once, Deep, In Hiding and so many others... I could go on and on and on. Words don't adequately express how incredible this show was
Glaciers melting in the dead of night and the superstars sucked into the supermassive.
small arrow pointing down on the right of the main title...
odd, but I am not seeing that arrow
in fact, I cannot get right (no pun intended) on the screens
Did you figure it out yet? Below the CD image, there is a line of text that starts: "Tracks 1996-09-29 Downing Stadium" etc and at the end of that line there are four little boxes, the last box is a down arrow, click on that down arrow to download the whole boot

yeah I see where it should be, but for some reason, the right portion of the screen is cut off-I cant see the individual file sizes either
must have something to do with my browser settings
Does anyone have any Hi-Resolution photo's of Eddie and Greg Graffin doing Watch It Die from this show? I'm looking for a very nice quality pic of this as I plan to print the photo onto proper photo paper.
Please PM me if you have any or know someone who does.
Thanks,

I am dying to get the philly shows bootlegs. I was there for 3 & 4. I don't check the board very often, so if you know when they are coming out, or what the plan is (is there going to be a DVD or something?) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE share your info with me.
I agree with you jamminpearls. I have seen almost 50 shows and this was one, if not the best I have ever seen. What a night!!! Cannot wait for the official boots to come out just to hear the soundboard version of this night, as well as the other 3.

Philly night 3 and 4 are the BEST back to back concerts the band ever performed...those two shows were absolutely epic...Boots expected by the summer...
Just gotta chime in. This was my 22nd show and it was absolutely freaking amazing. About halfway through the show my wife and I knew this was the best show we had ever seen. The crowd was just so into it. Well, except for 3 rows in my section. We were in the second level, about 2/3 back . We were in the 4th row of the section. I don't know how, but the 3 rows in front of us sat through the entire show. I looked around the Spectrum and nobody sat for the whole show. Everybody was dancing and singing. Just an unbelievable show. The next night was great but this was THE SHOW to see.

Thank you
spectrum was way too uncomfortably crowded, but i was glad to see that old dirty bucket for the first/last time.
i would have liked to have seen corduroy and the real me, but that's just nit pikin.
philly crowd was loud, and up. just like most east coast shows.
1st level off the floor, straight back, dead center, at the back, but i got raped on the way there by ticketmaster's legal scalping agency. wish 10c would have happened for me. ugh, but still grateful for the next night cause, 10c they came through for us. glass always 1/2 full
always some nice rare nuggets tho i really still dig jeremy a lot
Is it okay that we don't have boots from the greatest show ever yet? yes, because we have some dates in May.
No, no it's not OK. The Philly boots should have been released months ago! What gives? We better get some cool ass packaging, DVD, and the works for these shows. I can't believe it's been 5 months and nothing! Come on Pearl Jam, put the damn things out already. Please.
I'm about to explode cause I can't carry your load

Are you saying that "TBA" show may be Philly?
I will hold the candle until it burns up my arm. I'll keep taking punches until their will grows tired. I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind. I won't change direction and I won't change my mind.
It has been a long time since this show but I figured I would add to this now. My buddy and I won the lottery which was nuts considering we won it the last time Pearl Jam was in the Philly area (Camden night 1 in 08) The setlist just pretty much blew me away. If I could make a Pearl Jam setlist it would be pretty damn close to this one.
We were right in front of Mr. McCready and he was cool. He definitely enjoys his job. At one point, I cannot for the life of me remember the song, it may have been after MFC, he came over and told me he liked my shirt. Which was a Who shirt with Pete smashing his Les Paul on it. I said do you want it and he kind of half shrugged half nodded his head. I took it off and handed it to him and he sort of acted like he would be back after he finished rocking some more. He came back and gave my friend and I some autographed guitar picks and then gave me a shirt. He said it may be a little small. Then as I was looking at it I looked up and he was giving me a signal to cut the sleeves off so it would fit me. It all happened really quickly but it was an awesome experience as was the entire show. The funny thing was I wore the shirt because the last time I wore it to a show we won the lottery. It proved to be lucky once again at the Spectrum, but now it is in Mike's closet.
We saw the next night's show on Halloween which was incredible as well for different reasons. This show will always be a great memory for me and my friend though. Thank you Mike.

silly question is there a way to dl an entire show instead of doing it song by song?
