Surely Pinkpop 92 is legendary?

And i'll eventually get it up here.

I have a few more earlier shows to put up first.

if you're going crazy ol-school I think Zurich '92 is more deserving of "ledgendary" status than Pinkpop...Pinkpop was an insane but short set, but Zurich is a little longer and is basically the "Mamasan show"

again, from the concert chronology:

06/18/92 - Volkshaus: Zurich, Switzerland [85]
attendance: 500
set: Oceans, Even Flow, Why Go, Jeremy, State of Love and Trust, Improv (Love You Hate You), Black, Alive, (I'm Not Crazy)/Once, Footsteps, Deep, Leash, jam (Shower the People/Brass in Pocket/Meaningless), Porch, Improv/Suggestion/Garden, Rockin' in the Free World
notes: PJ is in a good mood and Ed recalls last time when they played in Switzerland in a very small place with no amps and how cool it was. The "Mamasan trilogy" is performed and explained as follows: "The next three songs ... we've never really played them together, but they go together. You wanna hear about it? I never told anybody about this before. I don't wanna ruin any interpretations of the songs that you have, but it's about incest and it's about murder and all those good things. And if you can picture it in your mind, the third song takes place in a jail cell so this is our own little mini-opera here ..." and 'Alive' is played. The second song of the trilogy, 'Once,' has a lead in: "What you did to me, ain't right ... problem child ... cuz I ain't crazy. Once upon a time ..." and Ed screams into a raging 'Once.' And just before "Footsteps,' "So this is act three." 'Shower the People' is a James Taylor cover. 'Brass in Pocket,' is a Pretenders song with the lyrics revised a bit. ("I'll kick the fuck outta you ... I don't give a fuck.") Ed refers to 'Suggestion' as, "... the same song my dad used to sing to me when he beat me." A great show featuring an excellent version of 'Porch.'

I have Den Haag and Unplugged coming first

jimc3

Unplugged is ledgendary, no question about it.

I think most of these '92 Euro shows are insane, wild, intense, great shows...but I don't know they all fall into the "epic" category like Atlanta '94, Soldier Field '95, Randalls '96, MSGII '98, etc. I brought up Zurich '92 because of the Mamasan element which is really essential to the genesis of PJ.

I'm not trying to be critical - what you are doing is awesome. Just trying to put in a little perspective and opinion. Virtually every PJ is great in some way or another, I know it's hard to cut the super-special list short, but...

ok, i'm a noob. what is a "rar" file or whatever? how do you get these into mp3 format to put into itunes?

With the Newcastle show, I noticed there was no file extension and I could not get the file to extract, so I renamed it with a .rar at the end and that solved my problem...maybe the Vic is the same way? I'm not sure.

Who else thinks Holmdel 2003 should be in there?

MayDay10

its already in there, but I would like to vouch for the greatness of the Buffalo '03 show.

Fantastic.

Its unbelievable that the famed State College night was the following night.

I agree that the Zurich 92 show is awesome. I don't know if it's "epic," but I used to have a european boot of that show, and it totally rocked my world. Then it was stolen with my other cd's when my car was ripped off.
Also, I don't know the city, possibly Milan, but there was a show when Eddie did "the part, the part where I play the pope." That shit was awesome--the whole thing, not just the pope part.
Another early one featured Eddie doing a little diddy that went, "Mom and daddy come and look at me now, I'm a figment in this great big town, years ago who would believe it's true, goes to show what a little faith can do."
If Chris, you, or anyone, can supply me with access to these old shows, I will be in your debt. peace

I was able to get the file on my desktop, but when i try to extract it, it doesn't work?

I also was getting a .rar file box that says ok to open, but it doesn't open?

I've tried this megaupload before, and i could NEVER get it to work. Can someone please help a FRUSTRATED PJ FAN? I appreciate any help, and be patient, because i'm LOW-TECH>LOL!!

I think you have '03 well covered. I don't think Holmdel is epic. Great setlist, for sure tho.

although you could legitimately add Santa Barbara '03 (Temple of the Dog reunion). never heard a great quality copy of that show tho.

Great Woods II '98 is certainly ledgendary for the "quarter rant" alone. plus it is a rippin show and a clean sound.
