    Hi, I host a Pearl Jam Podcast. We go back to some of the classic shows in their history and break down the entire setlist front to back. From historic perspective, to performances, to setlist construction, to fan stories. We do our best to capture the magic that is their live act and help you relive those memories, or if you weren't there, maybe turn you on to a show you've never heard before.

    Live On 4 Legs can be found on Apple Podcast, Spotify and any other major podcast platform. But please support our website and check out the episodes archived there. Oh, and the Concertpedia as well (for you Five Horizons and Two Feet Thick fans, we've picked up where they've left off)

    Chapter 9. MTVUnplugged (March 16, 1992)
    Extract
    Bob Dylan, Chronicles If you were born around this time or were living and alive, you could feel the old world go and the new one beginning. It was like putting the clock back to when B. C. became A. D. Everybody born around my time was a part of both. On January 3, 1992, the band comes home from three months on tour. Two weeks later, their show at the Moore Theatre is filmed, for a video: “Even Flow. ” The show is halted, briefly, as Ed reprimands the director: “NO! NO, NO! Now, for once — these lights — we’re going to have to calm this place down, with all these, lights — and filming shit. ” The crowd cheers, and Ed keeps haranguing. “This is NOT — this is not a TV studio. JOSH. Turn these LIGHTS out! It’s a FUCKING rock concert! READY? ” (Ed is quoting a line of...

    It’s not really written with that adaptation in mind. It can be used as a resource, but you wouldn’t turn this book into a biopic I don’t think.

    Wow - Augusta was 24 years today, but reading that overview makes it seems like yesterday.

    Thanks so much for sharing the chapter - really cool to see Rodman's perspective on his piggy back ride of Eddie.

    This is a huge month in the Pearl Jam universe. There's 2 books coming out. MTV Unplugged on cd and streaming for the first time. A new song. Members of the band doing a "zoom" call. And last but not least. The 30th anniversary of their first show
