    Also glad that Sleater Kenny didn't join them on stage.

    My first PJ show and the beginning of an addiction to live music.
    Can't believe its been 10 years!

    I was so lucky to have been able to attend all 3 of these shows. I was a casual fan before this show, and came out changed. I was the type that asked... "why do you need a bootleg of every show???" After that night, I understood. I will never forget the feeling I had, looking around at all these people...strangers, all so passionate about the same thing, all screaming their lungs out, some with tears in their eyes. I had never experienced that feeling before, but its the same at all PJ shows and I'm happy to be a part of it. :D

    I went to both MSGs and all three Mansfield's that year, too. Incredible week for me.

    7/2/03 was my 23rd birthday, and to me, getting 'Oceans' for the opener was the best present I could have gotten. 10yrs and thirty or so shows later, it's still the only time I've heard it live...

    In related news, I wish I had a PJ show to go to tonight...but I'll settle for Wrigley in 2+ weeks!

    Listening to it right now. Absolutely unbelievable. Can't believe its been 10 years. I was deployed in the Navy and missed all 3 of these shows. Thank you Pearl Jam for releasing all your shows on CD. Without that, I don't think I'd ever get to experience these gems.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.

    went to the first two shows. Stupid me skipped the 3rd show (experiment) as I spent the day (worked I think in the morning) with wife as we hit an amusement park. Hindsight being 20/20, wish I could go back in time. It's funny how what you may think is another fantastic show is actually going to turn out to be a piece of history (show 3).

    10c got me 5th row center dead EVEN with Eds microphone stand.
    I was picture in the bands concert recap photos (and now have that pic framed)
    I told everyone for weeks it would be "oceans"...
    And went nuts when I heard the famous "one.. Two... Three...

    Ed told the Boston crowd "thanks for coming out in such a large organized 'ready to go for it' group!"

    That was a great description.

    And if you grab this bootleg, be sure to listen to "DEEP".

    It is considered by many PJ boot collectors to be one if THE TIGHTEST versions ever...
    Matt's drum work is precise and the McCready Stone twin guitar attack (with break out wah, wah wallops by Mike)
    are jaw dropping!
