    Hilarious that they still refuse to acknowledge the existence of that corporate whorefest.

    It is weird that PJ does these from time to time. I mentioned the Vancouver 2000 show above as not having a bootleg. It was a show PJ did for a radio station in Vancouver called 99.3 the fox. It was at a bar called the Commodore (which holds just over 1000 people). It was pretty sweet but the only way in was to win tickets from the radio station (or be a celebrity, there seemed to be a number of sort of famous people there.... I met Bret Hart which I thought was pretty cool).

    I remember at the time thinking it was very out of character for the band to play a show like that. I've always wondered what it took to get them to do it. So doing a corporate gig isn't something new, it does seem to be something they do from time to time.
    They did the same exact thing for house of blues in Orlando, fl during the 2003 tour which is another boot that is not released. Somehow I won tickets by being the 93rd caller and correctly identifying betterman. Prize included round trip airfare, hotel and of course two tickets. I was on the rail in front of mike. Sick show.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    2007 or 2008 European tour

    There was no 2008 European Tour ..
    yeah 2007 Europe shows was meant. Which they never released

    Kufala Recordings were said to be releasing the 2007 Official Bootlegs back in '10? Can't remember when but few friends were told it will be released soon. Maybe someday .

    Not being at that show is one of my regrets in life.

    It was so hard getting tickets. I literally had this portable FM radio thing with me while I was going to college. To make matters worse I won a grand from the FOX before the show as announced. It was a contest where they played a song in the morning and when you heard that song again during the day you called in, and caller 9 got a grand. Song of the day was Betterman and I won, so that was sweet. The problem was it disqualified me from winning Commodore tickets because you couldn't win them if you'd won anything from the FOX in the previous 90 days.

    It didn't stop me. I kept calling in and trying.. took me weeks. The time I won they asked who mikes current side project was. I wasn't even 9th caller. The Pearl Jam gods in were in my favour. Person after person got it wrong. As soon as I heard my line get picked up.. I'm ROCKFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORDSS! Then I realized i couldn't actually win, so when they asked me name I use a friends name that I had an old fake ID for from when I was younger than 19. Had to use the fake to get in, then my buddy who I took with me had to use a fake because he didn't turn 19 until June the next month. lol... It took so much effort to go to that show :)

    Someone was nice enough to archive all of the old geocities website including my old trading website (before we could trade boots over the internet easily):
