complete 2000 , 2003 , 2008 , 2009, 2010

wasn't as motivated to buy during the download years. I have shows I attended and ones I read were great

2011 - waited for the box set, but nothing. So during the last big sale 10 club had, I bought the Canadian leg
2012 - Isle of Wight, Deluna , Montana, Atlanta

That is beautiful my friend.

I haven't done an official count, but I'm somewhere around 70 official bootleg CDs. I can't take anything other than the actual CD - love the packaging and makes for a nice looking collection on the shelf.

Have all of the 2012 shows and currently working on getting all of the illustrious 2000 tour.

Go to boots? Tough to pick any just one - but I think I often listen to the Gorge 2005 show as my go to. Especially on a long drive. There is no better boot for a long road trip than the Gorge set.

Digital - everything
CD - 99 shows since 2000, 27 pre-2000 unofficial bootlegs
Has anyone else found the pre-2000 remastered series, I think they are the best sounding boots and are now the only pre 2000 shows on my ipod.

I have close to 50 digital, about 20 actual discs. I have the whole 2005 canadian tour as well as the other shows I've been too. Prob not the place to post, but very interesting in trading. Can send me hard drive with the shows on to someone if they want to load it back up and send it back.

I'm really glad that other people have the same obsession as me. I always like the real bootlegs, not files on the computer. I can't imagine having allmost every show on the computer. Where do you begin? What do you play?

My next mission is to try to make nice looking bootleg cd's of the 96, 98, 05 and 06 shows I was it. I'm terrible at the computer so maybe I'll hire one of my 8th grade students to do it for me. lol

I am guilty of keeping the iPod at the top of the list because there are soooo many boots to choose from.
I have listed to any locations starting A-C way more than spots lower down on the alphabet.
Were I better at setting things up I at least would have paired them off based on Year to make the listening easier.

I have created folders for each year. Example: the 200 boots list the artist as "Pearl Jam (Live 2000)". Then each show by:
Date (ccyy-mm-dd format so they are in order)
City
venue

Still doesn't make it easy to pick a show, but you can at least pick a tour

I just ordered d.c. 2008...one of the last remaining shows I need that I was at. My wife is going to kill me.

I think now I'm going to head to amazon and get some of the euro 2000 boots that somehow disappeared in a move. I had all of them, now I have 5. argh.

I'm currently trying to collect all of the 2000 boots myself and Amazon is the best way to go outside of seeing what you can get on Lost Dogs. The only problem is, some of the prices people are asking for Amazon are little too much at times.

And oh yeah, the DC 2008 show is a good one - one of my favorites from the 2008 tour. Never go wrong opening the show with Hard To Imagine. Not to mention, it's 3 discs as well.

I have mine listed per tour. So Pearl Jam Tour 2000, Pearl Jam Tour 2003 etc for each folder and then the boot is listed as yyyy-mm-dd City.

What a nightmare. If I ever move house I'll have eyes on the box containing all the boots at all times!

I found ebay pretty good for 2000 and 2003 boots, I got alot at really great prices.

I just ordered Milan and Verona 2000. Oh yeah. Eighteen to go.

I got "lucky" last year when a board member wanted to raise some cash and sell off the entire 2000 set. Was expensive but well worth it. Now I need to find someone who wants to do the same with 2003.

Me too man. I'm a huge nerd (and not technologically savvy whatsoever) and I have to have the official physcal CD bootleg with original packaging. On top of collecting all others out there more recent, I'm currently going after the prestigious 2000 boots. They really are something else, although the sound isn't the greatest on them - constantly having to turn the volume up.

Began the quest of collecting the 2000 boots at the turn of the year, and I'm currently sitting at only 22 and have 50 to go!
