Watching the Unplugged DVD for the hundredth time, I got to thinking about it. Who all on this board was in the audience at that performance? If so, what was the venue like? The vibe? The audience? Expectations? Etc..

I apologize if this was posted before, I'm just curious.

    not I said the fly
    A child's rhyme stuck in my head...
    It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
    I've spent so many years in question
    To find I'd known this all along.

    If you've been a fan that long, you've surely been to better shows better than Unplugged.

    I like it, since it kinda makes everything a little more mellow, but I wish they woulda done so much more with it. The arrangements leave alot to be desired.

    It's by far the weakest Unplugged, reletive to the awesomeness of the band.

    I always get the feeling those people are either dead today, or converted Britney Spears fans.

    Maybe it will be some kind rude, but when i saw those girls in first row right next to The Band with long blond sprayed-hair and make ups...
    And more "ordinary" looked like people behind The Great Five - that was better view.
    Sorry, but after that - i can really imagine some of "those" people conversed into Britney's fans
    Not 10c member? Have sth to say? write to me - I'll put it on the forum

    now i know it was writen some place....but they said that ,that was the worst unplugged ever done ... no body from MTv liked it .. the band hated it...and the guys where hung over and jet lagged from there flight the night..that is why they never aired it again..... and YES i have been to MANY MANY great pearl jam shows...but the HYPE behind MTv unplugged is something else... how many years of us bitching and moaning did it take for them release it .......

    What do you mean "they never aired it again"? I remember it being aired a lot.

    My friend Dave went to the show. Dave was wearing a Bulls cap. Ed went out of his way to tell him he liked his hat. That's all I got.
