    Here's my idea:
    1) Put them up for sale for roughly three to four weeks - mention the fact that the shipping date is TBA
    2) Tally up number of copies sold, press enough copies.
    3) Ship
    A little bit similar to the way the bootleg sales were handled. I think it'd be great personally.

    I think there would be some major copyright issues to overcome if there was to be an official release. It would be nice to see an unofficial soundboard sneak out, though.

    Ohh...So you were the guy who kept requesting "Jeremy" all night?
  • moses-imoses-i Posts: 138
    i gave this some thought and i think the reason that the solo shows are not being officially released (as pearl jam boots are) may have something to do with the inclusion of the into the wild songs. I'm no expert on the music industry but it could be that eddie doesn't have the same rights to the music that he might have if it wasn't in soundtrack form. But really this is just one theory and somehow I think its an unlikely reason. Nonetheless, Massey 2 was just amazing-hands down best pearl jam/eddie vedder show i ever saw and possibly the greatest show PERIOD!
    if jah is the ship, we smile at the storm.

    i feel very cheated i went 2 both shows in montreal and in no way is this a diss or an angry post more of a sad one ed didnt play any neil young in mtl which was very sad mtl is part of canada and we do luv neil here very much i was also sad to learn he played heres to the state yet in mtl he didnt but gave us no more for both nites and the fact that on the 2nd encore he played more then hard sun feel very sad seems like ed doesnt like mtl all that much (they also passed up mtl on their last tour)

    thanks friend.

    Really, I just wanted to voice my opinion. When you insult all the creationists in the house in first twenty minutes, my Dad who put out a lot of money (for him) and good faith included, it makes a show less enjoyable. I dont know a lot about it all but I did study phil in school and wouldnt close mindly insult a group of people for thier beleifs, and since evolution and creationism are not neccesarily at odds, and ed is clearly not any more evolved than the next, I felt that unbearable.

    Also, half there were so many self rightious (coincidence?) folks waiting to stroke eds beard by telling others to be quiet it was a tense, wierd vibe, not that I ever disrespectfully shout requests for hits. I just dont find hainging on every word of somoene like your living his life vicariously is too much, for a long time pj fan (92) its hard to say.

    musically - why the fuck wouldnt ed assemble a world class band who can provide a musical show worth paying for? but his voice was amazing and I do love some of those songs.

    tics - never btiched beofre, usually happy with whatever i get but post hook for tenclub seats? why am i paying 25 extra a year for that?

    Finally,
    I am sorry to be negative but I had to express this, thanks for listening and rock on! i would pick up Pearl Jams new record, but wouldnt see ev again.

    .
    I'm pretty sure that most people who went to the show - went to see Eddie Vedder. Part of the show is listening to what he has to say. The people telling the others to be quiet were getting frustrated, because they weren't able to enjoy the show they paid for and expected to see.

    Which begs the question....what were you expecting?

    I'm very sorry you feel that way, but I think you're forgetting an important point. I don't believe it's because he disregards that "Montreal is part of Canada", rather that Neil Young shines in Massey Hall, and Eddie wanted to pay tribute to that.
