The City Of Brotherly Love has been home to countless legendary Pearl Jam shows and moments throughout their history. As a matter of fact, the night after this show was the show in which they they played the album Ten in full. Which makes some people forget about night 1 from 2016 due to the magnitude of the Ten banner being raised. But what good are we if we can't give every great show a spotlight on this podcast? Because there is no reason why this one shouldn't be discussed as an all-time classic show, and we're here to prove that.
With the knowledge of the album getting a run, this show was constructed so that Philly people would get to see some rarities, including three that haven't been played since that date - Gonna See My Friend, In The Moonlight and Education. But it didn't matter what they played, because the crowd was on fire the entire night. Right from the top when opening up with Once (including the Master/Slave intro that they would of course repeat again the following night), you knew that the crowd was going to make this a night to remember. We'll go in depth on Love Boat Captain, In My Tree, Jeremy, Crown Of Thorns and Crazy Mary where the crowd is at the top of their game. Also, how about a concert wedding up in Suite 225?
This episode's question of the week is based off of the rare songs that we'll talk about. We came up with a system for scoring your rarest songs you've seen, and we'll calculate the numbers and share them with you! On that note, our Gear Guru, Javier, tackles a different approach to rare songs and discusses what the musical reason for not playing them is.
