is there a ranking of best sounding shows released? i don't want to download the screamer but want to hear the new songs live.

The “screamer” didn’t bother me at all, and I think Portland is the best bootleg of the tour so far.

I've listened to all the ones that were released already, so I could give you my ranking if that helps? When I listen to Pearl Jam it is primarily through bootlegs and I judge the following aspects
Atmosphere, crowd interaction, musical quality and Ed's personal stories.

With a slight Canada (and anti-gambling) bias (sorry) aside here is my ranking so far:

1. Vancouver N2 (best atmosphere imo, only 1 fuck-up that I didn't hear and Ed on fire with the stories, first 4 songs are some of my favourite PJ songs of all time)
2. Portland (the screamer a slight detriment, but best quality of songs so far and a great setlist from start to finish, very emotional show for Ed)
3. Vancouver N1 (a great start to the tour, you hear they are a bit careful, great intermissions by Ed, Chloe/Crown was perfect)
4. Las Vegas N1 (perhaps quality wise the most round performance so far, great singing by the crowd, really don't care for gambling and otherwise not much going on in terms of intermissions, the Wishlist gambling improv at the end is a disgrace compared to what Ed sang in the past; however best setlist flow perhaps)
5. Sacramento (audience a bit lukewarm, not really my favourite encore, Lukin-Corduroy-Dance trio fantastic, disappointed by the performance of Faithfull especially)
6. Las Vegas N2 (you can hear Ed struggled a bit, You Are a standout performance however, great singing by the audience)
7. LA N1 (tenacious screamer "It's evolution baby", legendary mood drop - Wreckage great, Ed hypes people up further to follow with Got Some?? Crowd really dipped audibly, had weird flow, great encore however)

That said, I like them all, but so far only Vancouver 2, Portland and Vancouver 1 will become repeated listenings for me. Vegas 1 perhaps for a few selected songs.
Really looking forward to LA 2 and both Seattle shows. Napa might be in the lower half, unless it's story time Ed and the audience atmosphere lifting it to Pemberton or Telluride levels.

LA got its own special screamer on the bootleg. No spoiler here, but we know early on what the dude's favourite song is.

Hey all, just looking for some guidance.

I ordered the mp3 download for Vegas Night 1 on 5/31 and it’s still not available for download on my account. Anyone have an idea how long it takes to access the digital download?

Thanks in advance!

Should just take minutes.

Go to "My Account", click Order History, click View Details. There should be a section called "Digital Downloads for this order:" and a link.

Thanks!

Follow up question, is there any way to move them from “downloads” to Apple Music on an iPhone?

I think you may need to convert them. I download FLAC files so I can play them on anything but on my iPod I have to convert them to files that will import into my iTunes library and sync with my iPod.

I use the "Any Audio Converter" software (free download) and convert to ,m4a files.
---------------
Edit: Although, I have done a search and you may be able to import them into iTunes without a converter, but it does look like you need to use the iTunes library. I'm not an iPhone user so others may have better information on all this.

Sure do! (and for once it wasn’t on the list)

Just grabbed the 2nd Vancouver show and the band sounds amazing. I actually think they sound better than they did say 10 years ago.

Ledbetterman10 · June 3

Mike especially sounds amazing.

LA night 2 this Thursday.

At some point, someone suggested that the code you get for a free bootleg at membership renewal can now be used for $10 off a bootleg CD. This does not appear to be true. I have about eleven unused codes since I don't do downloads. I tried a couple of them when ordering the CDs and neither worked.

That would be nice...I have quite a few saved up as well...

Wish they offered that on CD purchases but those codes can only be good for digital downloads. I used them on purchasing Flac-HD's.

Too bad they didn't offer up a 2024 CD Box Set pre order. Where those who pre ordered the CD Box Set receive an MP3 download each time show bootlegs are available.

Whatever it is, the sound/mixing on this sucks. Really been disappointed in a couple of these boots this year. Can't hear Ed and instruments sound flat or like they aren't even there.

You might need new speakers. Different people like different sounds, but if Ed was any more prominent in the mix it would sound weird. I think the boots sound great on this tour. Up there with the best of any year.

the only thing I wish was a little more prominent is Jeff’s bass.

For Mike McCready fans, this might be the best tour and bootlegs in the history of Pearl Jam.

nugsnet - @PearlJam fans, we've got fresh #DarkMatter tour audio from both nights in Los Angeles, now available for order and streaming 🤘 Listen back to the ten tour debuts from night one, followed by five more debuts and a tribute-heavy night two, which paid homage to greats like @TomPettyOfficial and @TaylorHawkinsOfficial.

CarryTheZero · June 8

Loving listening to all the shows on Nugs. They sound amazing!

But is Nugs just really excited Ed got around to putting Go(!) on the set list? Laughed seeing the song title.

I thought last year sounded great. Bought every one. I am listening on my AirPods which is what I always use unless I'm listening in my car. I also bout the ALAC version. Last year I bought MP3. Thanks for your insight.

I emailed nugs the? About boxsets for this years bootlegs.

Fast response.
Thanks for your inquiry.

Unfortunately, there is no collectable box available for Pearl Jam's 2024 shows at this time.

If a box is offered later (with a full tour package purchase) we always have extra empty boxes for sale for a small price for those that have already purchased the CDs.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Best, Rosie
