i'm sure there are a lot of people out there who have not heard this version of crazy mary from cincy, cause why bother trying to listen to a random version of a song that we've heard thousands of times, and hundreds of different versions of...........well anyway this is different, if you haven't heard it do yourself a favor and go to pearljamlive.com and check it out. this might be the best version ever of the song. boom gasper and mike mccready were 110% on point. the band sounds as tight as ever.

    The whole Cincy show is awesome, esp. Long Road.

    Go and download the show from the 2005/2006 Download Thread.. I love this shows, and the speech about the missing Pearl Jam fan is touching too.

    I love this version...may be the highlight of my night:)
    I had seats right along the side of the stage about 10 rows back (my best seats ever) and when ed sang "under neath that sign congregates QUITE A CROWD" with his arms raised and open towards the crowd, and being able to see the massive crowd beyond. It was an amazing image.

    yeah it is a good bootleg. i was fortunate to be there and i had a nice spot side-stage to the left of boom. long road was a great opener, and one of my favorite versions of that song as well.

    it sounds like you sat very close to me.

    yeah it does......i was probably another ten rows behind you though. but how great were those seats during the crazy mary solo. i've never seen a concert from the side until that night, and it actually worked out well surprisingly. i'm a big fan of the side-stage now.

    Same here....i was nervous about the seat before we got there...But once I saw where they were I was amazed! I have some great pic of the guys walking on stage...Mike eating a banana in one (sounds weird but it was cool) I also have a video of Ed doing his dance on the side stage while smoking...it cracks me up every time I watch it. Oh and one pic I love is of ed sitting on the steps on the side watching robert pollard (though it's a very dark one)

    Thanks for letting us know about this awesome show !
    I just downloaded it from Chris, Thanks again !

    Not just that song, but the whole show is absolutely fabulous, the band is literally on fire , playing the songs like their lives depended on it, even though Ed is making a lot of speeches (some very moving) and singing good as ever I still think that what makes this show is really the band playing so tight and inspired, a real joy to listen to !

    So once again thanks a million Tiki barber for pointing this show out, and if you where there in person.............congratulations, I envy you ; )
    Everyday................is Pearl Jam Day.

    Except Sundays, that's Ed day.

    There's a handful of little gems from the last tour that have taken a year to be found out.

    boom gasper and mike mccready were 110% on point. the band sounds as tight as ever.

    Highlight of the show for me....to see those two playing off of each other was delightful.

    Thumbs up on this version.
