My favorite memory is probably from Council Bluffs, Iowas in 2003 when Ed came out and tried to sell some of Mike's hair. That was classic.

From my official boots it has to be London 2009. 18 years of hearing bootlegs with Release as an opener and finlly getting it, then a great early days set with awesome versions of Crazy Mary, Love Reign O'er Me and Footsteps. Also the first show with my nephew.
From unofficial boots gotta say Indifference from Wembley 2007 (release the 2007 boots damn it!):
Eddie: "I think I've written a few shit lyrics in my day but I will say this - this aint one of them"
before singing: "I will light the match this morning, for soon light will be gone :?
"---mumbling
, for soon light will be gone"
Classic, you can hear Ed laughing the second time he sings the line.
Philadelphia 2000-09-01 one of the first boots I ever listened to (my brother got it for christmas). I like how during Last Exit Ed says "OOH Philadelphia!"

This was brilliant. Definitely my favourite moment from a 'non bootleg show'.
As for favourite bootleg moment, has to be start of 'Release' from Arnhem 2006. Everytime I hear the 1st chords strike up I get a chill down my spine.
If I'm lucky enough to win pass the Spectrum to another lucky member as I already own it.
Thanks again Dimi

London 2007. Crazy Mary came on and the tears just fell so uncontrollably. It had been such a stressful day and unfortunately i missed half of the gig as my flight from Rome got delayed - the pilot had hit his head as he boarded the plane. I wish i was kidding but it was a comedy of errors, i arrived in London 6hrs after what i should have. The next day i woke in my PJ tshirt, the only clean piece of clothing i had as i had left my luggage at the train station. They opened the show with Long Road and its the only song i have never heard live and wish to hear... one day, fingers crossed xox

Well, I can tell you my most memorable PJ moment. The Spectrum shows in 2009 -- after Ed had been reading these boards, he decided to give Bugs a shot. He and Jeff try to get it going, but screw it up. Ed gets a bit flustered, apologizes, and promises that they'll do it the next time they're in Philly. Naturally, the crowd boos and demands a re-try. Well, they give it another shot and go on to nail it. The funny thing was, it actually worked pretty well live. Definitely a fun, "had to be there" memory for someone who was a toddler when PJ first started playing!
Def msg 2 ... slow lukin .... plus< i found a cell phone while fighting for posters :evil: and when we finally tracked down the guy who lost it, he offered my wife and i his posters... should of taken them just kidding... meeting cool people is always great at shows
Every single show has had so many amazing moments... I couldn't choose. But, Footsteps is my all-time fave song, so Philly 3 is high on my list for sure.
Or all the times I've been moved to tears at shows, that says a lot as well.
these offers of yours are amazing. thank you.
london, ontario 2005. "we're just gonna play one more song cause melissa has school tomorrow... alright melissa, fuck school. you're stayin with us."
Easily my favorite recent memory is the last two spectrum shows. From Eddie joining Bad Religion during their set to the World Series updates to their Devo costumes, Sweet Lew and the confetti falling at the end. Two nights I'll never forget. Thanks!!
If I knew where it was I would take you there, there's much more than this!
Crowd sings first verse of Betterman (we did it quite nicely if I say so myself), then Eddie makes a comment about Mike saying "I fuckin love the midwest".
Same show, couple of songs later before Whipping, after referring to the Roskilde incident and how grateful they were that the crowd was so well behaved during the bad weather that night in Indy, proceeding to say, "let's fuck something up". Pumped the crowd back up for the last 4 songs of the night.
Great show, glad I was there to see it live!
"Then the Spirit of God hovered over the water, and God said, Let there be music, and there was Pearl Jam."
Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?
You always have the most insane giveaways! Excellent package!
I would say my favorite bootleg moment was the ABQ 2000 CD. That was the first year of the official bootlegs, and I got to be front row at that concert. There was no youtube or lots of internet clips online... when that bootleg was finally released a few months later, I got to relive the entire concert and hear things I had totally forgotten about. That kind of stuff still happens today I guess. But it was a big deal back in 2000!
