= One remarkable thing about this concert was that there was no stage
diving! Is that forbidden in Sweden, or do you have to pay a lot of money
for it, just like alcohol? Eddie started the show like most of their
shows during this part of the tour, with his cap on. Pearl Jam smoothly
changed from 'Wash' into 'Once'. Jeff had some troubles with his bass
after 'Even Flow'. "Everything OK, Jeff?" Eddie asked, "we can't play
without you!" Jeff was pretty pissed off. "We never hire you again!" he
screamed to someone backstage. Our third party intervener Eddie Vedder
tried to change the subject, "Maybe he got bored! Thanks for coming!" He
continues telling the audience that he read something in the newspaper, but
it was in Swedish, and he didn't understand a thing of it. Mike, who is
probably sick of waiting, starts playing the first notes of 'State of Love
and Trust'. Afterwards, Pearl Jam played an a capella version of the
Fugazi song 'Suggestion'. At the end of 'Alive', Eddie smashes his
microphone stand against the cymbals of Dave's drum. Mike tunes his guitar
and gives someone in the audience a hand, and Stone starts the first notes
of 'Black'. During 'Black', Eddie tries to pull Jeff's shorts down. He
didn't succeed. At the beginning of 'Deep', Ed's voice problems came up.
He didn't sing that much, and when he did, it was not close to the
microphone. His voice problems would come back now and then during the
tour. Anyway, lying on top of the crowd, he sang, "Xmas clear view...and
she doesn't like the view". At the end of 'Jeremy', Jeff tries to get the
attention of the soundman, who doesn't notice him. Jeff walks up to Eddie,
takes his microphone, and tells the soundman what is wrong with the sound.
"Would you take some volume out of the kickdrum, it's fuckin' ridiculous!"
Eddie tries to explain to the crowd what is going on, "take the volume out
of the kickdrum in American means 'We love you!'" Dave, who probably
doesn't have any problems with the volume of the kickdrum, looks a bit
confused to Jeff, who tries to explain what such a volume can do to your
ears. Mike played the opening of 'Why Go?' with a bottle of beer. (Great,
Mike, we want more!) Eddie sang the first part of 'Why Go?' on top of the
crowd, and then during 'Porch', he again jumped into the audience. After
'Porch', Mike smashed his guitar against the ground and the drums. The
rest of the band left the stage, but Mike, who was still breaking his
guitar, didn't notice. It must have been a tough guitar, because it just
wouldn't break. Even jumping on it didn't help. While Pearl Jam was
backstage, some roadies were rebuilding Dave's drumkit. Eddie came back on
stage first, and he tried to say something in his microphone, but it was
still turned off, so he took Jeff's. He tells the crowd a story about when
he was 16 and wanted to go to Sweden. The crowd starts singing
"Pearl Jam". "It's our first record, we don't have any more songs, really!
Let's make something up! Let's just jam." Pearl Jam played a nice jam,
with Eddie singing lines like "I think I will stay". Before 'Leash', Mike
played a piece of Soundgarden's 'Outshined'. It was a very long version of
'Leash', with Jeff singing the last part of 'Leash'. Stone's guitar broke
at the beginning of the song, so he gave it to a roadie and went dancing
onstage. He had the greatest fun and sang along with Eddie. At the end of
the song, Eddie drums together with Dave. Mike is playing guitar on the
ground and after finishing that he jumps into the audience. Back onstage
he gives his guitar picks to some people in the crowd and shakes hands.

= Pearl Jam starts their show in Kopenhagen with one of their regular opening
songs, 'Wash'. This show was broadcast partially on the radio, like most of
their European shows. After 'Once', Eddie apologizes for not speaking
Danish: "I wanna speak English to you, but I don't know if you understand.
It's just the stupid Americans who don't know any other languages. It's
true. So I just wanted to tell you that. I wanted to let you know you are
on the radio. So, if you want to let your mum and dad know you're here...
This song is called 'Even Flow'". Before 'State of Love and Trust', Eddie
starts singing some lines of 'Suggestion'. Eddie exclaims that he hopes
there is not a kid named Jeremy present. 'Porch' was introduced with:
"This is a ticket for this show tonight. It's got our name on it. It says
we're playing at Kopenhagen. Can you believe that?! I can't believe that.
How we got here and if we ever did get here hitchhiking, or with our
acoustic guitars, I would think there would be maybe five or six people
here to see me. It's all a trip and I don't know what to say but one, two,
three.." When the song is finished Ed says, "If you thought this was cool
or something, don't tell anybody, so we can play the same place next time"
and finishes off with some Danish words. As you might know, he was right.
Pearl Jam had become extremely big those days and is now even bigger. A few
lines of 'Hunger Strike' are played, but interrupted by a "Hey, this is
enough", and instead 'Oceans' is played. Weird. 'Oceans' is usually an
opening song. This was something Pearl Jam would do very rarely during the
rest of their European tour. A piece of 'Window Pane', a song by the
Smashing Pumpkins, was played before 'Breath'. During the day, Stone gave a
30 minute interview on the Danish radio.

= The same set as the night before in Paris, only 'Breath' wasn't played
here. The first concert Pearl Jam gave in Holland was not one of their
greatest. Probably due to the large number of people invited by the record
company. Within 5 minutes the remaining tickets were sold out, but
fortunately I could get one of the VIP passes from a local record store.
The opening song, 'Wash', was according to the setlist on the back side of
the tour shirt. The relaxed atmosphere created with 'Wash' was completely
cracked by the second song, 'Once'. Also, the temperature in Melkweg
reached tropical heights. A part of the show would be broadcast on the
Dutch radio. Due to this, Eddie informed our mothers that they would take
care of us. He also mentioned that his throat was really hurting, and that
if we knew the words just like in 'Once', we can sing along. During
'Even Flow', Eddie screams for only "licensed" stage divers. By the end of
the song, one lost stage diver was left on stage, and this one would be
judged by Pearl Jam on a scale of one to ten. "That's a one and a half. Is
this the fuckin' stage-diving Olympics tonight?", he adds before
'State of Love and Trust'. During the first verse of the song his
microphone was malfunctioning, so a few lines could not be heard. He
continued singing in Jeff's microphone. "I think parts of this next song we
came up with when we were in a coffee house, but it was just espresso we
were drinkin', if we would have been in Amsterdam, it might have been a
different song", Vedder says before 'Alive'. During the song, he holds the
microphone above someone in the audience so he could scream the line "I'm
still alive". Mike did the guitar solo at the end of the song on top of
Ed's shoulders, which was really fun to see. "We belong together", Vedder
sings, and the atmosphere from the beginning of the show was restored when
Pearl Jam started playing 'Black'. After 'Why Go?', Eddie sings a few lines
a capella, which was not noticed by most of the people in the audience.
According to the setlist on the t-shirt, 'Porch' had to be played, and it
was. During the break of the song, he starts climbing to the balcony of the
Melkweg, which is pretty high, and for the first time in my life I saw
someone diving from that balcony. I can remember standing there thinking,
"Holy Moses man, you can't be serious to jump off there". Anyways, the
audience caught him very well, and he was carried to the stage. Also in
this song, Eddie took Mike on his shoulders during the last solo at the
end. The show ended with a long jamming version of 'I've Got a Feeling'.
One by one, they left the stage. Jeff took a jump into the audience first.
Dave continued drumming for a few more seconds while Eddie took some
pictures of the audience. I was already thinking about the next concerts
they would be giving in Holland in March, because that was something I
wouldn't miss for the world.

= This show was very good with a very happy and jumpy audience. The opening
song, 'Oceans', wasn't picked up by the band when Eddie started singing. So
after the line "Hold on to the thread..." Eddie had to start again, and the
show started. During 'Even Flow', everybody, and I mean everybody, was
jumping, obviously giving Eddie the creeps. He picked that up afterwards
by saying "It was only in the past five, six months that I've been playing
in crowds like this, before that I was always part of the crowd, and so I'm
very worried about you. Are you alright?" After 'Why Go?', Vedder
reminded the audience that they were on the radio. "You are on the radio,
you know? Say hey to mum and dad! Tell mum and dad to fuck off!" The whole
audience repeated : "Fuck you mum and dad!" Eddie continued with "happy
Jack has some fun here on radio one." The audience started singing "Fuck,
Fuck, Fuck" with Dave and Jeff giving rhythm. "They are saying love, I
know that", Eddie said, "so happy Jack had an evil brother called evil
Jeremy", thus introducing 'Jeremy'. All the songs played up until now had
pretty long breaks between them. Pearl Jam obviously didn't want to rush
things up. During 'Deep', the atmosphere became too wild, with security
having some trouble with the audience. Before 'Black', a piece of
'Hunger Strike' was played. After 'State of Love and Trust', Eddie does
his water show. In the meantime, someone screams : "Jeff", which was
responded with a salute. "It's fucking hot here", Eddie said after 'Once'.
The audience started screaming to Eddie,"Jump, jump, jump". He took a run
and jumped into the audience, which carried him above their heads all
around the place. When Eddie came back on stage, they started screaming
for Jeff.
During 'Porch', Vedder does his climbing act, which lasted quite long.
Pearl Jam left the stage after 'Porch'. The audience starts singing a song
(probably a soccer song). They sang it so loud that Pearl Jam must have
heard it backstage. Eddie came back first and asked them, "What was that
song you were singing?" The whole crowd started singing it again. Stone,
Mike, and Eddie were looking, and really enjoyed it. A piece of
'My Generation' was played afterwards, probably as a response to the
crowd's singing. It was also played live for the first time, with Eddie on
guitar. The song was followed by a piece of the Smashing Pumpkins' song
'Window Paine', which is probably a left-over from touring with them last
year. Dave is playing the game "catch the drumsticks" with the audience.
Pearl Jam still didn't want to play their last two songs, because they fell
into another improvisation. Someone from the audience is screaming for
'Baba O'Riley'. That person must have been in Seattle in January, because
Pearl Jam played the song there for the first time. The show concluded
with 'Garden' and 'Leash'. Before 'Leash', a piece of 'Outshined' was
played.

1600 tickets for a 1750 venue. I guess the band was surprised, Eddie has
commented on this in some interviews, without naming the venue. The show
was only the day or so after Ten was released in England. It was an
awesome show.

= The U.L.U. is the Union of London University and is near the famous Marquee
Club (Tube stop, Leister square). During this show in London, Pearl Jam
was in a very good mood and obviously had a great time playing in London.
Stone (cow-addicted) was given a cow as a present. [Yes, a cow from
London]. You can see the poor thing at Pearl Jam gigs, because it is
always placed behind Stone on one of the speakers.
Eddie is still coping with voice problems. He tells the audience that his
voice is really hurting and that if they know the words, that they can help
by singing them. In a way, the same words he said in Amsterdam two weeks
before. Anyways, no one could notice because Pearl Jam played one hell of
a gig. "If you got a heart and you give it away and someone breaks it...
FUCK 'EM". This is how Eddie introduced 'Alone', which is released as an
extra track on their single 'Go'. Pearl Jam recorded it as a demo for the
'Vs.' album. At the end of 'Alone', Vedder starts explaining that you
can't jump on people's heads. "Hold on one second, see your boots there,
the big shiny metal boggles, see these people's heads here, because that
are people's heads and these aren't fuckin' casaba melons. Everybody,
it's a beautiful thing when you lie down on top of the crowd looking like
Jesus Christ. But I swear all I wanna do is crucify when I see you
smashing peoples' heads. So everybody fuckin'... be as one. This is our
last night in London, I wanna remember it as a good experience, 'cause to
be here in the first place is really pretty cool and I don't think anyone
of us ever thought we would be here. And the thing that we have friends
is really cool and... I just want you to stay alive". "Can I tell you a
story? I hate that fuckin' Pearl Jam, I almost died, and so did Jeremy",
Eddie said before Jeremy. "So this is your home, why go". After
'Why Go?', the crowd is screaming for 'Outshined'. "Outshine or Outshined
or both?" Vedder asks. "I know you all got to be at the Soundgarden show
too. When you go see them, somebody has to be the organizer here,
somebody has got to count, one, two, three and say hello from Pearl Jam
and Chris Cornell will blush down to his belly button". Pearl Jam played
'Porch' with the lights on. At the beginning of the encore, Eddie starts
joking about the London tube. "Mind the gap. Mind the gap. Mind the
bomb." "We got some friends too, there is a plave called Richfarm, which
is the first time we have ever been to London. And we finished the record
there. And the people who worked there. Hello Richfarm people. And to
Jane and Ruth who travelled to every show that there was. Every show they
hitchhiked with their bags and made it to the very front to survive and
tonight we put them up in Prince Charles' box right on top there. Charles,
keep your hands off them, too, 'cause I know all about Charles (the Charles
bit was screamed by Stone). And to Lawrence the surfer. And to Brett, the
sound guy. He broke his leg two nights ago in 3 places and dislocated his
ankle. I won't tell you how, but he is back to the sound for the big show
tonight. He was fucking Prince Charles and broke his leg in three places
(Stone again). This song is called 'Leash'". The show ended with a long
jamming version of 'I've Got a Feeling', a song by Lennon and McCartney.
The studio version of this song is on the Japanese version of 'Ten' and
also on a promo 'Alive' CD. See the discography for more details. At the
end of 'I've Got a Feeling', dur>
Transfer interrupted!
other
songs, which gives a great dimension. Also a piece of 'Ruby Tuesday', and
a sleeping song (which I don't know, does anyone? It sounds great!) are
performed. "Goodnight, thanks. To all the survivors, to all the pussies
(he starts smiling), thank you very much. See you guys later, maybe next
time, same place".

= "I can't believe we're here. Actually... I can't believe you're here."
Eddie tucks his hands deep into the pockets of his long leather jacket and
counts off for 'Once'. Pearl Jam is back in Holland after a short visit to
Italy and the UK. Groningen is the first night of a small club tour in
five Dutch cities. Though packed with 450 people, this is the smallest
club they'll visit in Holland. The low ceiling makes it look even smaller.
Support act Captain Nemo couldn't warm up this crowd, but Pearl Jam did it
in a few minutes. A reporter from Spin Magazine is taking Polaroid
pictures during the concert for a special report that night (see Spin
Magazine #4, April 1992). Before playing 'Jeremy', Vedder introduces her,
"Everybody say hi, Lauren, everybody say hi, Jeremy." Just like in
Amsterdam the band, especially Jeff and Eddie, get really irritated by
stage-divers after a while because people in the front get hurt. "It looks
like maybe there are a few first-time stage-divers here.. 'cause eh...
they're not really good at it, you know. They get about, you know, they
don't even get off the stage. They just kind of land on people's heads,
mostly girls and young men up here... It's kinda silly. And here's one of
them now! Just to prove my point. No, no... I actually>

ne. Come on, I wanna be your friend, don't come up. I
used to like you. Because when you're telling a story and somebody is
listening to a story... you know, that's just fucking stupid... pardon my
saying so. Do you agree? Alright? So, I still love you, but eh... for
the preservation of the people ,for the preservation of the music, just hang
tight. Let's play, this is 'Deep'." While introducing 'Porch', Eddie
says, "... This is the last song. That was the quickest night of my life,
I think. So... who knows if we will live to see tomorrow. Let's just
fuckin' go for it all on this one..." By the end of 'Porch', the audience
gives Vedder a guided sightseeing tour through Vera by carrying him above
their heads. When the band came back on stage, they started playing
'Leash'. Eddie had a huge knife in his hand. He explains why : "So... I
guess... doing that song I got a little blood on my eye, and our tour
manager Chris, he loves us so much, he said : 'You really shouldn't go out
and play. I need to take you to the hospital.' So I killed him! And I
hate to condone this sort of thing, but... boy, did it feel good. In fact,
now I'm kind of addicted to it. You could be next! So beware, next
stage-diver... Actually, I don't have to kill people, none of us have to,
'cause we can just play this song. 'Cause we get our anger out. Jeff,
wearing a dress, will start it off. Drop the leash, drop the leash, get
out of my fuckin' face". The set ends in a very relaxed mood. "Shall we
make up a song about Groningen?" A couple of improvisations result in
'I've Got a Feeling', the last song of the night. After this song is
finished, Dave and Eddie, who by this time are soaking wet, don't feel like
stopping. Dave continues a beat and Eddie picks up Stone's guitar to try a
few chords. Even when Vedder quits, "I don't know how to play, goodnight,
see you!", Dave continues to play drums. When Abbruzzese finally throws
his sticks into the audience, the concert is over, leaving behind an
enthusiastic and satisfied crowd.

= Finally, after the concert in Melkweg (Amsterdam), I can see Pearl Jam
again. The concert in the Melkweg was still spinning in my head and I
could hardly wait to see them again. Pearl Jam had become more famous than
ever in Holland. Most of the people who could not get tickets for the
Amsterdam show in February had tickets for one of the new shows. The
tickets for these Dutch shows were sold out immediately. Good business for
people selling tickets on the black market. Due to the quick sell-out many
people who didn't have a ticket tried to get one outside the club. A
limited number of free promotion posters and introduction tapes of Pearl
Jam were available during the ticket sale. I'm sorry, but I don't think it
will be possible to get one of those items. All the T-shirts with the
'Alive' lyrics on the back and the T-shirts with the setlist on the back
were sold out this night. The concert started with 'Oceans'. "Just a
little warm up... here we go", was the introduction to 'Even Flow'. After
the song Eddie took a good look into the club and said, "It's unusual, but
tonight we can see the people in the back". Some Dutch words followed, "Ik
hou van jou" (I love you). Not many people took notice when he said these
these words, probably because the band was still playing. "You guys better
be quiet, because I've got an important message", and he repeated the words
and added the Dutch word for "goddamned" to it. The audience laughed, and
Eddie repeated the words again. Dave, who was bored of Eddie's first Dutch
words, started with the intro of 'Why Go?'. During the song, a lot of
people kept diving off the stage and it was very clear that Pearl Jam was
not happy with it. After 'Jeremy', Eddie walked up to Stone and asked him
to hold on for a while. "Just a couple of words. In my whole life, I
never wanted to be a policeman or anything of authority. But in fact, all
my life I've been in a crowd like this, and whenever I was back there and
people throw up onto the stage and jumped back off it always looked so
cool, but when you are up here, see al these peoples' heads bein' smashed
in by boots and stuff, it's really fuckin' ridiculous". The audience
agreed with an applause and Eddie continued his speech, "It looks like you
agree, so let's just police ourselves and have a good time, this is
'Deep'". From that moment on, there was no more stage diving, except on
one occasion, when Eddie made his dive. Before Pearl Jam stated playing
'Black', a little piece of 'Yellow Ledbetter' could be heard. "I don't
think we've played this next song live yet", Eddie said. "Yes, we have",
Stone said. Anyway, the song was called 'Saying No'. "You're having fun,
Gold E?", Eddie asked Stone, and 'Alone' was played. During the end of the
song, Eddie pulled Stone's pants up his ass, which he reacted to with, "You
put them in, now you have got to pull them out, too". "Ask somebody in
front", he said and walked away. "Come on, just sing", somebody in the
front says. "If you say please", Vedder answers, so the whole audience in
the front went "pleeeeease". "You make me feel cheap". Stone says,
"Actually, Mike and I are working on a Queen song we are goin' to play
tonight!". Eddie, who probably heard it before, said "Oh, oh, I better do
this", and he put his fingers in his ears. But it was too late already.
Stone and Mike started singin', or better said, screaming a piece of
'Bohemian Rhapsody', and within no time the whole crowd had their fingers
in their ears. What terrible voices they have, but who gives a shit. This
whole thing took a few minutes and Pearl Jam didn't want to rush things up,
but as Eddie said, "so this is it, hey, one, two, three, four, what the
fuck is this world..." Pearl Jam left the stage after 'Porch'. After the
break, Dave walked to the audience smoking a typical legal Dutch substance
and gave it to someone in the audience. "Hey, Dave, you have such a bad
influence, man", Ed says. "Personally, I wouldn't smoke that shit, I just
like life". 'Garden' was played for Jane and Ruth, and of course the rest
of the audience. The last song Pearl Jam played was 'I've Got a Feeling'.
During the song a lot happened. Eddie joined the audience and improvised
singin' the words of 'Hunger Strike' with the melody of 'I've Got a
Feeling'. Jeff gives his bass to Eddie's brother (Jason), who came on
stage. He stands there playing a perfect flat D in a corner (very shy
guy). Jeff obviously didn't like that, so he pushed him towards the front
of the stage. Eddie himself played on Mike's guitar along with his
brother. If you have a recording of this live version, the whole guitar
part at the end of 'I've Got a Feeling' is played by Vedder. Mike plays
drums along with Dave, and Stone left. "That's the first time me and my
little brother ever played together", Eddie says at the end of the song.
He and his brother both took some pictures of the audience and left the
stage.

theater. Eddie begins by saying, "This is really one of the nicest places
we've ever played, and we got to hang out in this city the last two days.
Thanks for having us, it's great". A brilliant performance of 'Release'
opens the set and is a perfect warming up for the rest of the show. During
'Why Go?', the first stage divers came on stage. After the song, "It's a
sea of people. When the tide is high, the waves come crushing out of my
thumb". Ed said some Dutch words, "Ik hou van jou" (I love you). "What
did I say, I don't know what I've said!", he adds. "Godverdomme (goddamn
it), I don't know what I say. Someone told me to say those two things.
Jesus told me to say those two things. Jesus also told me to write a song,
which is called 'Jeremy'. Watch yourself and your neighbors, my friend.."
"Just a quick reminder. I'm just looking at the front row. It's actually
thick, but I see it very close. There are human heads up here, there are
human heads up here, and they break. So if you gonna break somebody's
head, break them with your own, you pussies. A four letter word called
'Deep'." Halfway through 'Deep', Eddie yells, "Christmas in Utrecht".
Jeff pushes someone from the crowd off the stage. He is very irritated,
because when the stage-divers come on stage, they always stand on his
pedals. Jeff says something, but it is not very audible. He wants people
to cool off and be careful on the stage. He is telling them to watch the
instruments and what they are doing once they get on the stage. Eddie
immediately reacts to Jeff's words, "Jeff worked in a coffeeshop for five
years, six days a week so he could buy those pedals, that's why he's so
protective of them. And maybe, what I think of this song is a world you
would be in on MTV or something. No, listen, maybe it feels a little weird
for me, cause I am a protector of this song as well, cause it's like as you
know, your life. So I hope you listen to it in the right way, and I think
live is probably the way." Eddie is talking about 'Alive' here, and he
doesn't hide his resentment for MTV and video clips. After 'Alive', he
throws some water over the heads of the people in the front row. "If this
music thing, this band, doesn't work out, that's the job. I want to cool
people off in the pit, that would be a good job for me. Cause there are
several men doing the pit, it's just like you get round a few times and you
never wanna be away." 'Black' is performed in one of the best ways I've
ever heard, with great background vocals from Stone and Jeff. The crowd is
screaming for 'Hunger Strike' before 'State of Love and Trust'. "There is
a question for you. Is there something, is there a political strike going
on here in Holland, cause everywhere we go there seems to be a hunger
strike. When Chris is here, you gonna yell that at him, too, I hope!".
Mike gets crazy halfway through 'State of Love and Trust'. Eddie is
joking with someone in the crowd who looks like someone he knows : "This
guy looks like Steve for Mudhoney, the guitar player. Mudhoney is playing
here soon. Steve just came early so he could hang around the coffeeshops.
You're better looking." Stone added loudly, "Steve, what's up, man? How
are you?" Jeff and Eddie laugh about Stone's screaming. "It's going
quickly tonight. I'm honestly pissed. Someday we're gonna be gone and
others will be like anyone! Once upon a time, once upon a time, 'Once'".
A piece of the Stones' classic 'Sympathy for the Devil' was played by Pearl
Jam. Eddie calls it the water-pouring song, cause he throws water into the
audience. Eddie made a climb to the balcony, made a round through the
whole place, and jumped back on stage, halfway through 'Porch'. He was
scared to jump, but Jeff helped by saying, "Jump!", and waving come on, "We
will catch you!". When the song ended the band left the stage. Mike threw
his guitar over his head and made a bow in front of the audience. He takes
his guitar again and throws it to Eddie who plays some fiddles on it. (This
is fuckin' great to see!) "We want more, we want more!" After a rather
longish break, we are treated to a drum solo, but mind you, it is not Dave,
but Eddie! The rest of the band come on stage dancing one by one. "I just
wanted to play drums, so I can give a drum or my drumstick away. That was
fun. So change instruments? What are we supposed to do with it,
recording?". A piece of 'Outshined' is played. "I still can't believe I
am in fucking Utrecht", Eddie says. A stage diver took off. "That was the
laziest stage diver I've ever seen", he adds, "I wasn't going to say
anything about this, but then I thought I should, because this is the first
show I've ever played with a tattoo. I'm now a walking piece of art. I
used to be just a loser. Yeah, Hanky Panky. It's called 'Leash'. Drop
the leash, drop the leash, get out of my fuckin' face." "Everybody smoke
hash!" (yes, that was Mike). After 'Leash', everybody left the stage
except Eddie.

= Happy Birthday is sung to Mike McCready (26th). Contrary to what is often
stated, Henry Rollins DID NOT come out on stage. Eddie introduces him and
calls him out (I guess people hear this on the boot and assume that he
does) but in fact the person who comes out is someone impersonating Hank.
He looks a bit like him but he has a happy face drawn on his back in magic
marker instead of Rollins' sun tattoo. I was at this show.

= Pearl Jam plays a lengthy version of 'Part Where I Play the Pope', at the
end of which Eddie recites the lines "I didn't ask for this!", "I didn't
want this!", "I just want to be small!", and "Take it back!". Eddie then
addresses the audience, "We're just makin' this stuff up for all the
Venturians in the audience. Are Ventura people...Are they considered L.A.
people? I want to know. ... What? You have something against L.A.
people? Are you racist or something? All I know is, I was looking forward
to tonight. I'm not looking forward to the Palladium. I just thought I'd
be honest with you." That leads into 'Porch'. Later, a soft version of
'Suggestion' serves as an intro to 'Garden'. Next comes
'Rockin in the Free World'. Later in the show, Eddie says,"Did anyone hear
the radio last night?" After some mumblings, he says "I wrote this a long
time ago to their music." Then, "There was 'Alive', and then 'Once', and
then this song, and we didn't play it together until last night, and it
kinda came out good so we're gonna try to play it right now..." And then
'Footsteps'.

= Right before Porch, they sing Happy Birthday to Dave, with a few opening
bars of "Owner of a Lonely Heart" played before. EV starts chatting after
'Leash'...stuff about great audience, really nice to them, etc. Then he says,
"It's Dave's birthday and he's gonna play guitar for the first time in
front of people ever...and usually when we play, I just let people know
what's on my mind cuz, I dunno, it usually takes over. Tonight also is
like the night that me and my girlfriend have been together for 8 years.
It's serious. It's probably the sole reason I'm alive. But, ah, that's why
I wanna stick around on earth. I don't ever wanna be an angel or nothin. I
wanna be right here with her and, ah, so let's try this song." and Dave
plays guitar while EV sings==> Angel!

because Chris Cornell is moaning about being in Europe for 10 weeks

Stone came to the mike and said, "Well, we gotta start, so we'll have Chris
sing." They went into Even Flow and about 1/2 way through Eddie came
running through the crowd with pants ripped shirt torn etc -- jumped on the
stage and said he was stuck in traffic. So they went into 'Once' and Eddie
said afterward that he was out of breath and called Chris back onstage.
Eddie said let's do 'Hunger Strike', so Mike, Stone, and Jeff were on one
side of the stage trying to remember how it went. Killer show!!
