One of the best, most accessible albums. Easy to listen to without being shallow. Maybe one of my top listened to albums simply for the fact I don’t skip any songs
Loved the record. This is not even close to their best tour. The switch to Matt derailed things a bit and made it much of a greatest hits tour as they got their feet under them on the fly.

I actually thought that Matt not knowing the songs brought a new rawness that made things really fresh. Ed’s live voice was entering its prime. Amazing tour

You are crazy.
Memories are fun, but this tour is not their best in my mind. People have rosy memories based on the fact that the band got out to more venues and there was more access. These shows were good, they pale in comparison to 2000, 2003, 2005. It is not even close the band was more proficient, together, interesting and dynamic on the tours through the early and mid 2000s.

Fun tour. Great to have more shows and better access. Just not their best. Not by a longshot.

Disagree! those bootlegs still to this day kick more ass than the later ones. Songs played at the proper pace, great vocals, amazing setlists (first five albums).

Just doesn't do it for me. Mike and Stone are just more technical and literal with their approach. The shows are sound, but I prefer the more adventurous risk taking attempts at improvisation that occur on the handful of songs that they take in that direction. It lends itself to more varied and nuanced runs on the tracks that are more concise as well. Matt is just better and more versed in the catalog as time goes on as he is also writing music for the band versus sitting in to bridge a gap and ultimately I think this made Jeff a more interested and dynamic bass player having a drummer that was cerebral and a writer vs feel.
While we are having good debates on albums/tours, I have still haven't been able to put No Code and Yield ahead of Vs and Vitalogy. Please keep in mind that I love all four albums but, to me, Jack's albums still rank a notch or two below Dave A's (although my rating probably has nothing to do with the drummer).
Maybe one day it'll all change for me. Until a year or so ago, I'd rank Ten as my #1 album by the band. For what ever reason, it's probably fallen down to 4th - or maybe 5th or even 6th (behind Binaural). But as much as I love most of the songs on Yield (the album that is the topic of interest in this thread), overall I still prefer the ones on Vs and Vitalogy.

You can’t go wrong with any of albums 1-5. All are amazing in their own way and it is impossible to pick the best one. Some days it is vs, other days no code.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're not much of a fan of Binaural, right?

Uh oh. I'm derailing the thread again!
It has grown on me but it isn’t even in the same league as the first five. Riot act is the one I still dislike a lot.

The shows worth seeking out from this tour (and this held true before the Vault releases)
6.30 Minneapolis (though the sound quality is a bit iffy) 7.2 St. Louis (stellar sound and a great performance) 7.14 LA (still puzzled why they went with night 1 for the Vault over this night) 7.18 Portland (always felt this was best show of either leg) 8.26 Cuyahoga Falls (particularly the main set) 9.3 Birmingham (crazy good audience recording, best version of Porch between 1996 and 2000 tours, all shows, hands down) 9.11 MSG 9.16 Great Woods Mass
Only PJ album to be released on my birthday, which was also my 19th . So I got to legally drink and a PJ album for my birthday, pretty good day.
