Actually went straight for Hallucinogenic Recipes.
When Vs. came out, I realized that the weird obsession I had with Ten was turning out to be something far more than just "a really good album". They were a phenomenal band. Vs. proved it.
I bit the bullet.
Bought the box.
good shit too.
Hard to Imagine and the unreleased instrumental ('untitled' or "wreck") were worth the price alone.
the versions of Blood and Porch from the Vegas show were worth the price alone.

My first bootlegs were purchased at a music shop called Soundchasers that was located in Hanover, MA. I had saved up and was able to purchase the three that I really wanted, they were:
1. 5 Alive
2. We're Gonna Hungry
3. Small Club - Live in Holland 1992
All three had amazing sound and I played them all the time. I still have these three, along with about 60+ more, that I still listen to today!
I still miss those days of walking into the store and immediately going over to the front counter to see what new bootlegs they had and giving a listen to see how good/bad the bootleg sounded. I don't miss paying $30, $50 and $100+ for the bootlegs though!
***Sadly, with eBay and other low price music stores on the internet, my favorite music store closed around 10 years ago.***
I think it heavily contributed to me becoming a massive pearl jam obsessed fan. Such a good show.
I think I was 12 when I got it.

No F'n Messiah! Crazy Mary with Victoria Williams and a cover of Dock of the Bay were worth $30 dollars. Also had a cassette copy of Vortical, which was several '94 shows pieced together - mostly Atlanta. Somehow Release was near the end of the track list of the cd, which I always thought was a great place for the song. Still looking for a copy of Vortical if anyone still has it.
Wasn't my first but was one of my favorites. My first were called All Night Thing and Small Club 1992. Got them both at the same time. Both were from Europe 92. Got them at the music swap in Elkin, nc.
"All I Ever Knew" available now in print and digital formats at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iBooks.
I still kick myself in the ass for passing on that show. Someone asked me to go after school and I couldn't because I had football practice. There was a rule If you missed the practice you couldn't play in the game. I was So fucking lame.

Yeah but I bet you have great memories of that football practice now.

My first bootleg was Brixton Accademy in 1993. I remember really wanting to go but wasn't allowed, so I was so happy to find the boot of it. And I still love listening to it now and again
Pearl Jam and a Little Soundgarden was the first boot I bought back in 92. Paid a small fortune for it for a starving college student, but it was worth it, I played the hell out of that CD.
Got a chuckle out of "Drop the Leach" on the track list.

New Songs 3...my boyfriend in 8th grade bought it for me. Still have it (minus the boyfriend)...what a gift!
I also bought a bootleg video one summer while at Ocean City...I want to say it was almost $50...it's Philly 4-10-92 The Trocadero...wish I still had a VCR. May have to buy one just to watch it again as well as SVT.
Same for me. I played the shit out of that LIve at Leeds style boot. Direct soundboard, the new guy, Jack Irons on drums, and Everyday People. Still one of my favorites to this day
I bought this in 1994. It was one of my first bootlegs, but my first (not including recording 4/3/94 on the radio) was the "Five Against One" vs demos:

that was one of my first 3 or 4.

gotta get busy at work though...
back to chime in lil later...
peace
I bought it after Q101 started playing the new songs from the Atlanta easter broadcast. Most satisfying $30 I've ever spent on Pearl Jam to this day.
This was also the first bootleg I purchased.
I think it heavily contributed to me becoming a massive pearl jam obsessed fan. Such a good show.

Seems like you could have just answered the question in the amount of time it took to write that if you were concerned with working.
Just sayin...
I am at work. I can always make me a minute or two for some PJ
"Drop the Leaves"
Nice
I wanna rock and roll all night..... And PART OF every day
