21 Shows in 20 years: a petition

EvolutionBound

So there's been a lot of talk about what the band should do to commemorate their 20th anniversary. I would like to add to that talk. Maybe someone has mentioned this before, but I feel like the best way to show the evolution (no pun intended) and maturity of a band over their lifetime is the live performances that they've done. From the days of Eddie climbing stages and stage diving off of crane cameras to the 3 hour + epic of the closing night of the Spectrum last year in Philly, they're a band often defined by their live performances. Some critics name them the best live act in the world and we, as the diehards, are obsessed with their ever changing setlists and live surprises. That said, my idea to celebrate 20 years of Pearl Jam, is to celebrate 20 years of LIVE pearl jam.

One show for each year of PJ's existence (1990-2010, this actually comes to 21 shows) voted on by us, the fans. Officially released as a box set, perhaps with a dvd companion with highlights from each show. The best part of this idea is that it is entirely fan influenced so that the guys would be able to celebrate both themselves and their fans. Plus, I just think it'd be a really cool thing to own.

Thoughts? Suggestions for shows?
