Was able to attend 3 of the Bridge Show concerts over the years, extremely memorable event, each one. Such emotion, and some amazing performances, most specifically Trent Reznor. Nothing you would have imagined. Was never a NIN fan but he was incredible.
- yeah, i found out later that Pearl Jam played there in '92. I hadn't even heard (my) first Pearl Jam song, yet-a "late-bird", I got smitten Immediately the first time I heard the band in '93 , same time my brother told me about the annual Bridge School Benefits- and we went to '94's BSB, first time seeing Pearl Jam & Bridge! It was great! Returned to the BSB '96, another great! and in between saw Pearl Jam in '95 San Jose. I kept on attending most of the BSB's-all the way through the last,( sadly ) in 2016. My 1st and my last ( 2014) seeing Pearl Jam 'LIVE' were coutesy of the BSB's - I'm so glad I got to/very thankful! ( now as I live and breathe, I will beable to list Ohana Encore as my last time I've seen Pearl Jam "LIVE"...) Yet half the times I count as getting to see PJ "Live" are bcuz of Peggi ( RIP)& Neil and the Bridge School Benefit concerts...love 'em.
( my people said at one time over the years that I had "dumped" Neil, my fav. for Pearl Jam, so I went and stacked my cd's-and it was neck & neck- 27 Neil Young cd's ( not including record albums) and 27 cd's for Pearl Jam at that> so i told 'em, so there! Lol)
I went in 2011 (Eddie Solo). Day 2 may possibly be the best day of music I ever see in my entire life.
We saw Neil Young, Eddie Vedder, Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, Tony Bennett, Mumford and Sons, Beck, Santana, Arcade Fire, and Norah Jones. What a day.
I went to many Bridge School Benefit shows and this one was probably my favorite. So many amazing bands packed into one weekend.

I was just about to post about this set. I remember Trent saying something to the effect that he had no idea that he was going to have to perform acoustic when he agreed to do the set. Got a string section together and absolutely fucking killed it. Naturally, I bought tickets and made the trip because Pearl Jam was headlining the show, yet Trent's set was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this thread. Every minute of each song he did both nights was fucking beautiful. I've been searching out a recording since coming home that weekend. Found a pretty shitty audience recording long, long ago that just whetted my appetite further. There are some videos on YouTube but the quality also sucks. Needless to say, I'm fucking psyched that Neil might be releasing this 2006 show.
