    Listening to all Help help again and again. They're so .... so .... *sigh*
    I'm not sure I'll get to do a lot more tonight. I'm totally stuck on this one.

    Working tracklist updated....

    Give "Know Your Rights" from Uniondale a listen. This was the show where a bunch of turds started booing Eddie. This version of this song is particularly fired up and angry. Let me know what you think.

    It suits the song quite well. :D The difference with the Tokyo version is ... striking :lol: .
    I'm not so keen on the Japanese boots. Wherever is the crowd ??

    +1

    The Japanese Boots sound like studio recordings. Don't get me wrong the band is on fire, but the crowd....

    Meh...

    I guess that I am too spoiled listening to those European Boots for the last (almost) 20 years. The lack of crowd participation just doesn't do it for me. It's like that old saying about masterb.... nevermind.

    Anyway, if the people on this board want the Japanese boots to be represented, then who am I to say no that they can't be. I just think that a crowd has the power to make an average into a great show, and to make a great show into an average show.


    Yeah I agree - it's a different atmosphere - but I find there is a certain raw desperation in the performances which you never get when playing to the home crowd. Like the band has said about the song Alive - it started as desperation, but has become a triumphant anthem over time by the power of the live shows and audience reaction. I think Pearl Jam playing their home turf has the power to turn even their darkest songs into anthems - and in the case of Riot Act in particular, that is not what I hear the album to be about - it is quite introspective for me, quite spiritual, and there is a fragility in the studio performances which it is difficult to capture live in front of an adoring crowd. I think this is why I have always got a lot from the Japanese bootlegs - the fact that the crowd aren't there to cheer on every note - and the band are kind of on their own with the songs.

    Electric Thumbing My Way was from Fargo 15/06.

    How about we go for this one ?
    I've listened to a bunch of others, but they sound a bit too much like the studio version IMO. This one (obviously) has a nice spin to it.

    Save You from Mexico 17/07 is amazing. Eddie really takes a while to warm his throat up to reach those last 2 notes, but on here, it's effortless.

    Trying to find a really good Half Full

    Half Full from Atlanta 19/04 is a little different.

    Great solos from Mike, Matt is a little more subdued and Ed is improvising a little at the end, finishing with "It's up to You" after all the "Won't someone save the world," and vocal improvs.

    You mean Don't be shy from Boise 2000 ? :shh: :silent: :lol:

    j/k, I reckon it was played in 2003. Don't know if it'll fit with where we want to go with this project though.
