Best live Pearl Jam cover of Baba O'Riley

3/1/03, Yokohama, Japan. Been listening to a lot of bootlegs lately and this version is seriously one of the best versions I've ever heard. If you like their cover of this song, you must listen to it! Might be the most flawless take I've heard and plus, those 2003 official bootlegs? No other tour has been captured and released like that one was.

    My favourite is Gorge '05.  A little biased because you tend to revisit shows you were at fairly often.  Still out of all the times I've heard it live, that's my go to.

    Listened to this exact boot the other day as I’ve been on an ‘03 kick. The Japan shows are so cool. You could hear a pin drop during Indifference. The entire band sounds so good in 2003. Riot Act has also crept up as one of my favorite albums because of it.

    Good shares everyone! Also, was that old footage in PJ20? I don’t remember seeing this or at least not this entire clip!

    Some good versions from '98 as well. The one off the vault is pretty good and the grainy video of Eddie pouring out his beer and sliding across the stage before jumping and then destroying his guitar makes it even better.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I'm being facetious but I would say it was the show where I left my seat, ran down the middle aisle to the front of the stage.  I don't know what year it was but I totally lost my mind.  Thanks for reigniting that memory.
