[@lorendsalazar]

Pathetic. The only talent in Eddie Vetter is his flannel shirt (in the right place at the right time). The previous, superior singer sadly passed away from heroin just before Eddie showed up in an appropriate flannel shirt. Love the fine musicianship however.

[@TrueFreddyK]

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

[@codyleathers7769]

nice film dude... one of my favorite parts is at the end when the other dude says "hey guy!! did you get all of that?!? can I get your address?" brings me back...so glad there where people willing to be a potential buzzkill (in the moment) but to record and share the moments like this...priceless.

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.

[@benvallentine7197]

Seriously only 3 days after? Wow. I was in my second year of high school.

[@noahlouys-1285]

hutch that’s actually crazy

[@BookClubDisaster]

@ 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]

@ 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]

@ 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.

The concert was freaking amazing. Eddie, Stone, Jeff, and Dave A seemed to hit EVERY note and beat the same as on the studio album, and I was MESMERIZED watching the band whose CD I waited in line to purchase when it came out (and whose music I've absolutely loved since that day!!), but that dude in front of the camera FOR THE WHOLE SET was the most annoying distraction in the history of music!

[@SXI96]

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

Did you really just use the word "bop" to describe a PJ song? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@ktw70]

@@Shadows921 I surely did, and proudly so! It's a huge compliment. Catchy melody + a massive hook + a driving rhythm section = bop. That's not facepalm-inducing, it's facts. And it's only rock n roll. No need to be so serious.

[@rumblebird9888]

Even Flow is an actual jam

[@heliomoonwave]

Love how everybody is just listening to the music, as opposed to holding up their phones. The person filming this must have had a huge video camera, and was probably the only one doing it.

[@BhutWhut]

Yes, the idea of filming a concert on your phone rather than being in the moment and actually enjoying it is very strange. So later it's, "Look at this concert that I filmed"

[@rapmaster]

Back then holding up a Bell telephone at a concert was both muscularly taxing and garnered strange looks from fellow attendees.

A million thanks to whoever recorded this. ❤ I miss the 90s. 😍 I love this band. 🤘🏻

I moved to Seattle from LA in 1988 while into alternative rock and new wave and stumbled into this weird music scene called Grunge that was once again proving you can do hard rock with actual melody and meaningful lyrics. Metal for grownups.

[@scotttimmons7958]

It's 2023, a 52 year old man sits in his house with his wife and the one remaining child still at home at 17 years old. He thinks, "I was a part of history. 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. Na, I keep my mouth shut and hope they never see me nearly touching greatness..."

It's pretty amazing this video exists. Back in 1991, no one had video cameras unless you were really rich.

Rich? Not really. You just had to blow something like $1000 which wasn't that difficult back then. People had jobs. Prices were low and the government hadn't completely fucked over 99% of the population into poverty.

Chris Grooms how many parents are going to let their scruffy kid take a $1000 video camera to a music event?

Seattle in the '90s was just an amazing little piece of space-time, wasn't it? Assigned to Ft. Lewis (Tacoma) in February of 1994, and moved north up I-5 the following July to First Hill in Seattle when I got out of the army the next July. Lived there until June of '99, and those were honestly the best years of my life.

a crowd of young people waiting, looking calm, hands in their pockets, looking over their neighbors' shoulders to see what is happening on stage. not a single phone raised, not a single face slumped on a screen. an anonymous and silent cohesion, without modern individualities where everyone is padlocked in a cocoon of technology. archive from the 90s !
