4.0 out of 5 stars Half of a Great Performance, November 4, 2001

This review is from: 09/6/00 - Rock Am Ring, Eifel/Nurburg, Germany (Audio CD)

Disclaimer: Owner of all 72 official PJ bootlegs. This is one of the more average or non-descript entries in the Pearl Jam bootleg series. Actually, this gig starts off very strongly, and the first disc presents a pretty powerful performance. Of special note is "Rearviewmirror" which makes an unusually early appearance in the set, and contains a wonderfully dark and dissonant jam session in the middle. "Not For You" is lowdown and creepy, and there are extra strong takes on "MFC" and "Even Flow." Unfortunately, this show takes a turn for the worse in the second disc. The extended jams in "Alive" and "Daughter" are mistimed failures, where it appears that nobody in the band can decide where to go next (however, Eddie Vedder adds a verse of the Who's "Behind Blue Eyes" to "Daughter" for an emotional effect). "Elderly Woman Behind the Counter," "Black," and "Yellow Ledbetter" are all badly out of sync with flagging, sluggish tempos. Indeed, for much of the second disc, someone (maybe the normally flawless Matt Cameron) is playing very slowly, dragging down the rest of the band into a tar pit of sluggishness. This also happens to be one show in which the often stupendous Mike McCready sounds bored and disinterested, much to everyone's detriment, as for most of the show hardly a peep is heard from him unless he gets to do one of showcase solos. Eddie manages to keep the crowd interested by giving them some German salutations, along with some friendly chatter in English. In one interesting moment, after "Last Kiss" Eddie says, "I hate that song." He was probably joking, but that number wasn't performed too well either. All in all, this is one-half of a great concert.

5.0 out of 5 stars It was hell of a show!!!!, October 4, 2000

This review is from: 09/6/00 - Rock Am Ring, Eifel/Nurburg, Germany (Audio CD)

I was one of the lucky 70.000 people who had the chance to watch Pearl Jam live that night. It was a grat show because both the crowd and the band itself was very enthusiasted. (I have seen them before in Istanbul). I think some of the solos and Eddie's vocals are a good proof of how the band enjoyed the show as well. This album is a must for every PJ fan because of the raw energy it contains.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the Series, September 27, 2000

This review is from: 09/6/00 - Rock Am Ring, Eifel/Nurburg, Germany (Audio CD)

The music, the crowd, the set list, the solos, are all perfect. This or the Milan show stand out above the rest.
