    I believe it was 'Don't Be Shy'. I think they've played it a few times, one of them being March 3, 2003 in Tokyo.

    I think Ed has covered "Trouble" as well a few times as well as "don't be shy"

    Didn't he play Trouble during his opening pre set for Vic theater back in August?

    Don't Be Shy first got played 9/25/00 in San Diego. I'll admit I had no idea what song it was till I got home.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    I'm in love with 98 Eddie

    There is also a great version of Don't be Shy in the Boise 2000 show.

    Look it up on http://www.pearljamlive.com.

    the song was used "to get through hard core depression" according to Ed.

    ENJOY!

    The last comment on the 'Trouble' video from YouTube.com:
    theres actually a story behind this most people dont know about because eddie and the members of pearl jam dont like to talk about it at all. that night eddie overheard a kid named mike katz in the parking lot playin this song on his guitar while tailgaiting...the thing is, the stadium is in a bad neighborhood and there was a drive by shooting just as eddie had walked back in the building, and when he came out, he saw that that kid was murdered. so that night he played it for him. pretty damn sweet huh?

    Is that true? I've never heard that before.

    I was just wondering if anyone has a really good mp3 version of Ed doing "Trouble" from one of the official boots or something? I own a lot of the 2000, 2003 & 2006 boots, but none of them have "Trouble". If anyone has it and would be willing to share, I'd be most appreciative.

    Sports Arena? I thought Ed called it the San Diego Rock Arena!
