Episode 265: Camden, NJ - 9/1/2000

Welcome to the unofficial sixth season of Live On 4 Legs Podcast! While 2024 is gearing up to be a massive year for Pearl Jam and we plan to be there covering it every step of the way, we're still very excited to get you guys the weekly episodes covering all of your favorite shows throughout the history of this band. We're going to kick off the new year with a great show from the Binaural tour in 2000 located in Camden, New Jersey. This show took place near the end of the first North American leg, which had it's ups and downs due to it's proximity to the date of the Roskilde tragedy. By this point, the band had kind of found their own way out of the funk and strung together some excellent shows down the home stretch. This Camden show is a standout due to it's remarkable run from the middle of the main set straight through to the end. It kicks off with an electrifying Given To Fly, features a version of Better Man which we'll have tons of talking points about the tag, Present Tense's "twinkle", Spin The Black Circle's sheer speed and Black's ability to melt your soul. It was not the best show for Ed's voice, but everyone powered through it and the band had his back in times which he struggled. Another storyline from this night was the contingent of fans who brought signs for Breath with them, very similar to the moment at MSG on the previous tour, and for the only time during this entire tour year the band makes a setlist adjustment in order to play it. Also, what 80's metal songs were tagged at the end of Yellow Ledbetter? Stay tuned, the answer may surprise you... or may not. You can pretty much look that up.
