My understanding is that the quality of the bootlegs from 2000 through 2006 should be greater than other years because those are the ones that were released by Pearl Jam. That is why I focused on 2000 through 2006 bootlegs to start my bootleg adventure.
Do you find the quality of bootlegs of other years, which can be downloaded from the bootleg threads, to be of equal or at least better than good quality?

2006:
-Bolgona, Verona, Milan, Torino, Pistoia (all 5 make up a great set to listen to)
-
Because of your suggestion I'm downloading Pistoia, and totally blown away by Porch. Holy Cow! Thanks for the heads up!

I listened to the entire Perth 06 show last night on Pearljamlive.com. Amazing show.
It really WAS an AMAZING gig!!!! The most mind blowing nights of my life!!!!
So yeah, I strongly recommend the Perth '06 boot
and
Newcastle '06 - the set list for Newcastle was entirely written by one of Eddies best friends (an Aussie - Mark Richards) and it was awesome!! This was a fantastic gig that only eventuated because 3 determined guys did a petition for Pearl Jam to play in Newcastle. It was a really different concert, in that it seemed very personal/intimate.....like a bunch of mates all just hanging out together

Here's a little write up I did of Newcastle 06 for some extra fun and information.

My favorite boot of all. If you want, I will burn it for you, M.
Just send me a PM.
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

yeah, the radio broadcasts and soundboard copies are excellent.

Thanks for the offer! I'll just do it from the download thread. I'm looking foward to seeing why it was so good, though
I went to #1, and it was, you know, fine.

If you have bootlegs you would recommend please post the name of the concert, and if possible *please please please* could you include the link to the MP3? If it's in the download/share thread could you write what post it's on?
White people have always been renowned for having ridiculously large music collections. So when file sharing gave white people a chance to acquire all the music they ever wanted, it felt as though it was an earned right and not a privilege.
When (not if) you see a white male with a full iPod, ask him if all of his music is legal. If he does not immediately launch into a diatribe about his right to pirate music, you might have to nudge him a bit by saying “do you think that’s right?” The response will be immediate and uniform.
He will likely rattle off statistics about how most musicians don’t make any money from albums, it all comes from touring and merchandise. So by attending shows, he is able to support the musicians while simultaneously striking a blow against multinational corporations. He will proceed to walk you through the process of how record labels are set up to reward the corporation and fundamentally rob the artist of their rights, royalties and creativity. Prepare to hear the name Steve Albini a lot.
Advanced white people will also talk about how their constant downloading of music makes them an expert who can properly recommend bands to friends and co-workers, thus increasing revenues and exposure. So in fact, their “illegal” activities are the new lifeblood of the industry.
When they have finished talking, you must choose your next words wisely. It is considered rude to point out the simple fact that they are still getting music for free. Instead you should say: “Wow, I never thought of it like that. You know a lot about the music industry. What bands are you listening to right now? Who is good?”
This sentence serves two functions: it helps to reassure the white person that they are your local “music expert,” something they prize. Also, it lets them feel as though they have convinced you that their activities are part of a greater social cause and not simple piracy.
If you bring up this issue with white person who says “nah bro, I don’t give a shit, Dave Matthews has enough money as it is.” You are likely dealing with wrong kind of white person.
In the even more rare situation where someone says “it’s all paid for, and it’s all transferred from vinyl.” You have found an expert level white person and must treat the situation carefully.
Because of the availability of music online, a very strict social hierarchy has been created within white culture whereby someone with a large MP3 collection is considered “normal,” a large CD collection is considered to be “better,” and a person with a large vinyl collection is recognized as “elite.”
These elite white people abhor the fact that music piracy has made their B-sides, live performances, and bootlegs available to the masses. Their entire life’s work has been stripped of its rarity in terms of both object and sound on the record. The best thing you can say to them is: “vinyl still sounds better.”
However, it is recommended that you do not let this conversation drag much longer. If you let them continue talking to you they are likely to spend hours talking to you about bands you’ve never heard of and providing you with a weekly mix CD of rarities that you do not want.
Utrecht: Tivoli - 1992

I downloaded Pittsburgh 2000. It's one of the next 3 I will listen to.

Buffalo 2003 - The band was tight, the crowd was nuts, and the setlist/length of show was unreal. A gem that is often overlooked because of State College, which was the following night.
Ottawa 2005 - Another incredible setlist, and the solos and crowd participation were sick. Black is worth downloading this show alone.
I attended both. Often I'll say that seeing them live carries most of the weight in a recommendation, but these are always the ones that stand out on their own as boots to me.
the palms, in the breeze, still blow green
and the waves in the sea still absolute blue

Well, those are at least the second recommendations for both. On my list!

Go to page75 of the Download/Share Thread, there's a long list of shows going back to the early 90's. I haven't too many but Paramount Theatre~NY 94 is amazing, sound quality good too if you don't mind the screaming teenyboppers.
Also, Anoeta Veladrome~San Sebastian~Spain 96 has some great performances, in particular Black.
Many of the downloads are M4a, just use itunes to burn them off.
Listened to this last night. The more I listen to bootlegs the more I wonder where this early-angst-ridden-Eddie idea comes from. He's a total mother hen! "Hey you, be careful, you motherfucker!" Ok, a mother hen with a polar-bear mommy attitude.
Now, Jeff, there, he's a little feisty, eh?

If you are a musician how would you view bootlegs of your shows?
Would you view them as separate entities from the show - like a playing deck of art cards from a museum. The action of the present is as important as the artistry of the past.
Or would you view your bootlegs more like photographs? The importance is in the past although the artistry can be appreciated in the present?

I dusted off the Nashville show from 2000 this morning on the drive to work. "Sometimes" as the opener, a great extended version of "Daughter" with the R.E.M. "Wrong Child" tag with Ed really hitting the "Okayyyyyyyy" notes.
The 2000 boots are very interesting because if you haven't listened to a show for years, it's almost like a new experience. You forget the little things that you once remembered when you first got it and basically played it 7-8 times in a month. I get giddy when after each song, I'm in that listening phase for that first note, or Stone tuning his guitar to get some sort of hint of what will be played next.

Detroit 2003, night 2 (very underrated....they only played TWO songs from Riot Act despite that was the album that was just released...awesome)
Esther's here and she's sick?
hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks
Also, Anoeta Veladrome~San Sebastian~Spain 96 has some great performances, in particular Black.

Vancouver from 2003 is actually an underrated show.
San Antonio from 2003 is a very solid bootleg as well.
