    I hope people realize how historic this piece of video is. The "Ten" album was released just 3 days after this performance. They were literally just touring/promoting the album in their hometown with no idea as to what lied ahead. They're lives completely changed within weeks of this performance.

      @ Not how I remember it. I started college in the fall of 91. I remember hearing Alive on the radio and running out to buy the album in maybe September or October. Yes, it didn't TOTALLY blow up until the Jeremy video but it was pretty popular before then.

    • @BookClubDisaster
      @BookClubDisaster Před 3 lety +8

      @ Then I must have been cutting edge because I know I bought the CD in the fall of 91. I also remember they stopped making videos after Jeremy. Such a 90's thing to do. Also kind of biting the hand that fed you since it was the Jeremy video that put them in a position to do that. And call me a cynic, but they broke the no video streak in 98 with Do The Evolution. Not sure it's a coincidence that album sales had started to drop from their commercial peak of Ten, Vs. and Vitology.

    • @BookClubDisaster
      @BookClubDisaster Před 3 lety +15

      @ I know. I was there too. But I don't entirely agree. The lack of videos for Vs., Vitology, and No Code probably contributed to their commercial decline. Also--and I love No Code and Yield---but apart from their experimental nature, I think the songs weren't quite as strong as the first three albums. And no matter what they did, they weren't going to remain the top band in the world. Mass popularity is a young person's game--especially when it comes to record sales if not always concert sales. And......no rock band today can ever be as popular again. Rock was once a dominant form of pop music and now it's a niche genre if you're a new band. Pearl Jam were lucky to be part of last wave of rock's mass popularity.

    I filmed this with a giant 1988 cam allright! glad I captured this cool moment for PJ. The crowd was pretty relaxed up front- lucky for me. I caught one of the promo cassettes eddie threw out into the crowd at the end of the show- while still filming. it was the one with "Ive got a feeling" "Footsteps" and a couple otherz......love PJ

As 20s go into 50s it's just not doable. Many kudos to Cornell for doing it well most of the time until his death. Same with Ed though Ed never sang with Chris range.

This has to be the greatest PJ concert ever. The energy that fades with every live performance they do was there. At its peak. Raw. Electric, like a live wire from the most powerful electric plant the world has seen. I was there. I shook my head like a Peacock trying to show its feathers so my tiny pony tail, poking out of my black hat, would flap in the wind to attract a chick in a flannel, and yellow construction boots, experiencing herself a part of history.

    It's funny how most laid back people in the audience don't realize the greatness of what they are hearing. There's a video of ACDC in Oakland doing a concert and breaking out Highway to Hell before the album dropped and after the song the crowd barely even acknowledged the song. Led Zeppelin also said they got lukewarm responses from the crowds when they did Stairway to Heaven before its release. The best music takes a few listens before an average fan will get it.

      A lot of it is psychological.. the more people there are creating a "buzz" around something like a song or band, it tends to spread like wildfire.. and more people are willing to take actual time to listen to it and get hooked
      There is sooooo much music out there, a lot of great music goes unnoticed, especially nowadays
      Bands like Zeppelin, ACDC, Pearl Jam, etc. were lucky to come out when they did IMHO, a lot of has to do with timing as well as talent, there was a lot less technology, clutter, and less competition overall back then
      Nevertheless, certain bands were destined for greatness, Pearl Jam being one of them
      I think the days of legendary bands like Pearl Jam, Zeppelin, Rush, etc. are over, the music landscape is too saturated because of my technology, there is too much music floating around, most of it being total garbage

      ​@@ricosquirts3420Billy Corgan is talented, but I wouldn't include his with these names because his songs lean towards shoegaze or even straight pop at times, a sort of predecessor to emo, and because he had no growling wolf element to his voice as these guys did. Mark Lanegan belonged to that ilk, though, for sure.

    I’ve got a cool story about Eddie Vedder. First I worked for an insurance company back in the day in the special lines field and remember actually speaking to Eddie about his boat policy! He said enjoyed calling instead of his agent! Very down to Earth and later we were able to meet at a Seattle Pearl Jam show so he was able to put a face to the voice on the phone 📱. ILL NEVER FORGET IT! RIP CHRIS CORNELL. The Seattle scene in the early 1990’s is unsurpassed by anything going on today!

    This may be video footage of the first gig with drummer Dave Abbruzzese playing drums. I believe that prior to this day Matt Chamberlain had played only a few gigs. Chamberlain had replaced Dave Krusan who had recorded the album 10 but was in Rehab. Chamberlain was not ready to tour for 10 and was joining another band so suggested his friend Abbruzzese to come join the band. Dave Abbruzzese's own Wikipedia page verifies he played his first gig on the day of this recording. It says he was not committed to joining on his very first gig with the band which was on August 23 1991. By the end of his second show he loved the bad so much that he committed 100%. He finished the tour for the 10 Album and he then recorded mtv unplugged, vs, and Vitalogy with the band.

    6:30 Only Eddie Vedder can trip and fall over a mic stand while making it all appear cool and casual.

    This show is giving me goosebumps every time I watch it. The emotion, the way they seem so down to earth, and just the quality of the music. And also, Eddie was ridiculously handsome. In combination with a voice like this...

    I love all of these early PJ videos. They all seemed to only own a couple of t-shirts. And now they have more money than they can count and they still dress like they're a struggling band. This is why they're so beloved by their fans. They never stopped being themselves.

    you really don’t know pain until you’re in love with the 90’s version of a 53 year old singer

      You think you have problems. I'm in love with the 80's and 90''s version of Natalie Merchant. And the 70's version of Ann Wilson.

      Ryan Doyle how about being in love with a girl that smiled at you in passing at a Grateful Dead show in 1990...
