People are getting them and I assume spinning them. What's the verdict? How does it sound to you? Go!

    disc one was very nice.
    disc two- snap, crackle and pop.... but I will inspect it better to see if it needs a cleaning
    disc three- haven't spun it yet.

    the music sounds great... Ed's vocals have that slight "sound" that I can't describe that he had during the mid 90s early 2000s. it is not him but more of the microphone/mixing. doesn't have that rich bass/fullness that more recent boots have.

    First side skips on a couple songs, random pops throughout a couple places on the rest.. Overall its great but it would be nice to hear Thin Air and Breakerfall without skipping

    All three of my LPs sound great. No issues. I will agree with lolobugg though. Ed's vocals are not what I've come to expect

    All my sound good, not great. Probably something that will do a lot more sitting on the shelf then spinning on the turntable.

    On a side note. I'm listening to LO10L right now (which I just picked up on vinyl).. The tempo of the songs on here seem super fast. Nothing as it Seems feels especially rushed. Could just be my pre blizzard Buzz talking though. . .

    I wonder what goes into the decision on which show to release as a vault issue. Obviously there are a lot of great boots out there. It would be cool to have a "fan chosen" vault release someday.

    Sound is good, not great.
    Still need to listen to Lp's 2 and 3, which had some visible issues with them.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    It's good but not the greatest performance by the band and especially Ed. Lots of errors but then again it's a warmup show and the first time the Binaural songs were played.

    First time I played it, I wasn't thrilled with it but second time round enjoyed it a lot more.

    Sadly this is the first vault I have zero interest in buying. I really wish pj would have picked another year since we already have 72 quality boots from 2000. Seems like they got a little lazy on this one.

    Finally gave mine a complete listen last night. Disc 2 had 4 or 5 noticeable pops, but I'm not going to fuss over it. Static build-up was pretty bad, but I sprayed my slipmat with some static guard and that helped. Probably just need to give the records a good cleaning, too.
    Highly enjoyed the show! The Binaural tour was the first I ever saw them live, so to hear a show from that tour - albeit a warm-up - on wax is pretty awesome!

    Finally got mine today. Packaging was crazy. Good work. Thing could of gone through battle. Will try to spin tonight!

    the whole thing is way too fast. I can't listen to it

    LO10L isn't very good IMO... but I don't mind NAIS on it - I thought of it as having an upbeat tempo rather that just being too fast. The tone of EV's voice is more upbeat too. Same with I Am Mine on that album. I don't mind it.... But yeesh. The song choices for that album are generally pretty lame; I don't really understand what they were thinking on that one.

    I would kill for this responsibility!!! Would love to have someone who has been collecting recordings for decades and is aware of all the recordings that are out there and the missing shows that fans have coveted be able to advise PJ on this decision. I'd also like to increase the releases to one per month.

    That would be interesting, considering how it goes when they come only once a year. ;)

    Got mine a few minutes ago. After more beer consumption, cartoons and the little one goes to bed, I will light a candle till it burns up my arm and enjoy. With a bit of trepidation that there's no skips or damage, but fingers are crossed.

    If I remember I'll write how it goes

    i'm disappointed. surface noise is bad from beginning to end. pearl jam records lately are always noisy and that's disheartening when i buy so many other records that are quiet. two of these discs also have scratches or smudges on them. otherwise the package itself is beautiful. the show was average at best.

    Very impressed by the package but as others have mentioned the actual show is average. It's the least memorable vault release.

    Mine plays flawlessly from beginning to end, and not even one split sleeve. No surface noise whatsoever, though there are a few times where it sounds like some amp hum is picked up on the recording, but that has nothing to do with the quality of the vinyl. Overall great sound quality for what it is. I've never really been blown away by live vinyl and this is as good as any.

    I find that the performance is pretty good, but there a few moments where Ed gets lost lyrically. Go being the worst offender. Love this era of live PJ....the guitar tones are the best they ever had and this stage in Ed's evolution is my favorite.

    Many reports of this, just like with LB.

    10C, please, I'm begging you. Find a top notch manufacturer!!! Great quality is SOOOO much more important than speed! I'd be willing to wait as many months as it takes if you start using a good press with a long waiting list.

    would have been incredible to be at such an intimate show at that stage in their career. My first show was 1993 and it was with 49,999 other people!
