    I Love the design of the DEEP mag. Is it done inhouse?

    If Kelly started talking about releasing every show as early as 1993, why wasnt' there a live album released untill Live on two legs (which wasnt a full show). 

    Were there rumours of a live album before that?

    I'm sure the reason they didn't release that EU tour is because they don't have fond memories of it..  The worst being the Heineken Jammin Festival incident, but I remember they were having issues in some shows. Maybe one day..

    I remembered Kufala Recordings answering back with a stay tuned for the 2007 bootlegs back in 2009. Someday those recordings will officially be released.

    Thanks for posting @demetrios ! This was a really informative and fun read! I won't get the single until April (renewal month), so it was cool to read this now. I'm so glad that Brett came back. The last few years of recordings have sounded incredible! :)

    That & the 2005 tour not available on silver CD pressing. It breaks my heart! :(

    Imagine in 2018 they find a rig that can capture their live shows @ 24Bit 192kHz?

    2007 was the year the band returned to Denmark for the first time since the 2000 Roskilde Festival tragedy where nine persons died during a Pearl Jam concert. At the 2007 concert a lot of the relatives to the deceased were present and the concert was really special in that sense. I think it´s because of this particular gig that the band decided not to release any of the 2007 bootlegs. 
    And he still gives his love,
    he just gives it away...

    I wouldn't see why not. In PJ20, Matt said everything is in-house.

    Yes, that could be another reason.
    Anyway at the Venice date that year (Heineken Jammin Festival) the show got cancelled due to a tornado occurring in the day (before the band took the stage) that caused serious damages to the venue and some people got injured (pure luck that nobody died that day). Some of the band's equipment got heavily damaged too (especially Jeff), and that may have affected a little the following Vienna show too (even if Vedder said during that show that the crew did a great job with restoring their equipment).
    The date prior to the Venice show (Katowice), they were having some unclear issues too, setlist was much shorter than what it was supposed to be (here's the original setlist: http://www.pearljamonline.it/OnTheRoad/2007/polonia.jpg), and that was not a festival.
    This is why I was saying that they probably don't look back at that tour with much affection.
