    Here's a picture of the two posters Beav.
    (I only learned how to upload pix a couple of days ago from a kind soul here on the porch)

    Nice, Shecky! I got my clown poster through a kind soul in the Lost Dogs forum. There's one hanging in a poster shop in Frisco I had my eye on for years, but it was like $500. A bit out of my price range! And I have the same poster from San Jose for the '95 tour. And my one from the Golden Gate show. That poor poster. I was 17 and had it tacked to my wall. I'll never part with it, but it looks a little haggard.

    This one because I was there and as you can see it was AWESOME:

    02/06/95 - Moore Theater: Seattle, WA (Fan Club show) [100m]
    attendance: 1,400
    support act: Magnog
    set: Release, Last Exit, Spin the Black Circle, Tremor Christ, Not for You, Corduroy, Lukin, Dissident, Act of Love, Animal, State of Love and Trust, Daughter/(W.M.A) /(Stuff and Nonsense), Improv , Whipping, Immortality, Go
    enc 1: The Kids Are Alright, Porch, Jack Irons chant/Blood
    enc 2: Jam, Satan's Bed, Rearviewmirror, Instrumental Jam
    enc 3: Act of Love
    notes: Free tickets were mailed to Ten Club members and PJ appeared as the "Piss Bottle Men." A new song/improv ('The Price of Everything' ?) is dedicated to Riz Rollins, a Seattle record store clerk and occasional funk DJ. Ed explains 'Whipping' as a song "... about getting hit in the face, turning your cheek and getting hit again. Come to think of it, all the songs are about that." 'The Kids Are Alright' is solo by Ed, accompanying himself on guitar. Neil Young joins PJ in a surprise 'Act of Love' encore

    This is probably in my top 10 of PJ bootlegs, such an intense show and great versions of so many songs
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...

    This one's from pearljambootlegs.org

    I have no idea if the quality is any good as I haven't listened to it yet. I am sure the other (great) PJ boot sites have it, too.

    Both the Moore 95 shows circulate in excellent quality.. they've been bootlegged by Chrome Hearts as 'Piss Bottle Men' (02/05/95) and by Primadonna as 'Act of Love' (02/06/95).. both are unofficial bootlegs labels of course.. they are audience recording, but the sound is great.. the piss bottle men boot is the only known source for this show (and a bad rip from the bootleg is around, listen for example to Go on the pjboots.org site, has digital errors at the end of the song not present on the silver discs).. the other one there's probably a dat transfer out there, but I don't think it's ever been torrented anywhere, but a bootleg rip is around and easy to find.. two must have bootlegs, imo

    Reading about the dynamics in the band in 95' - they still managed to rock the hell out of every show they played, save for the one Ed was sick. In that case Neil Jam rocked it all!

    Recently digging back into the better copies of MW broadcasts...wowzers! Think where they left off in spring 94' aftee Cobain's suicide, Ed making cryptic comments about the band's future? Then they hire Jack Irons and BLAM!!! Full on with fire running through their instruments, piss & vinegar running in their veins. Marathon shows and just playing the shit out of songs.

    !!!! Yeah brother... I randomly picked up the Missoula 2/8/95 show and 11/1/95 salt lake city to listen to the other day... My My the 10 min. porch from salt lake city...jammed out in a way they don't today. If you closed your eyes you would have thought it was different band. Phenomenal.

    Jack was the most intense drummer they've had. Unfortunately, I think it contributed to his burn-out but it seemed as if every molecule of his body was laying down the groove when he was behind the kit. And that kinda thing is contagious on stage I think.

    They were simply a different band, as they've stated themselves. That can be interpreted a lot of different ways but...there it is.

    I saw them in '93 with Dave A. but have always been extremely regretful that I missed them with Irons. That was my favorite era of PJ but I always believed it was because of the material they played/released at the time. But now I think I was fooling myself, wanting to believe the drummer had nothing to do with it (because I love(ed) Matt's, Dave A's and Dave K's playing so much)
