I needed the space on my external HD, so I just deleted the vast majority of Pearl Jam's post-2006 live bootlegs.
I kept:
3x 2008 (Columbia, Virginia Beach, Boston II) 12x 2009 (Toronto, San Francisco, Ridgefield, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles IV + all Australia/NZ shows) 3x 2010 (Cleveland, Newark, Arras) 3x 2011 (Hamilton, Saskatoon, Lima) 1x 2012 (Stockholm)
Some of those could probably go too, but they can meet their fate another day.
Why do you have so many PJ bootlegs
Can i go to your place? i dont care if you are there or not.

I'm really, really, really disappointed that you chose Virginia Beach and Boston II from '08 over Hartford.

but it was a fun tour.
I'll take your word for it, but I don't really need the bootlegs anymore.
You need Hartford. The performance is even better than the setlist:
set: Can’t Keep, Breakerfall, Last Exit, Gods’ Dice, All Night, Elderly Woman…, Sad, Brain of J, Big Wave, In Hiding, Not For You/(Modern Girl), Daughter/(Another Brick in the Wall), Why Go, Jeremy, Gone, Immortality, Porch first encore: Garden, Better Man, Even Flow, Comatose, Leash, Blood/(Atomic Dog) second encore: Smile, Do The Evolution, Alive, Fuckin’ Up, Yellow Ledbetter/(Little Wing)
Heck, over the past 5 years all you really need are these 7 shows:
2008: Hartford 2009: Auckland, Christchurch 2010: Cleveland 2011: Lima 2012: Amsterdam II, Pensacola
That covers virtually every song they've played live over that time period, features some of the best EV vocal performances in that time period and will help you forget that most of the other shows from that time period are average at best.

Oh, I've heard all of those shows (sometimes multiple times). I liked Hartford, if I were to have kept one more from 2008 it would've been it, but I could probably happily delete them all since I can't envisage wanting to revisit those performances again.

I know you, of all people, have heard those shows. I can't even listen to Pearl Jam right now...I'm just...through with them at the moment. But Hartford is the only official release since 2006 of which I own a hard copy. That show, much like Christchurch '09, hits my sweet spot pretty good. Those are my 2 favorite post '06 shows by a significant margin.

This is a silly gripe, I admit that, but I'm not liking the sideways posters on the US shows. Especially when the poster isn't white like Atlanta and there's a big white strip on the side. I feel like it could have been done better.
I imagined the artwork from the 4 location specific t-shirts they made. Those woulda been cool.

Why do you have so many PJ bootlegs
I have a fairly complete Pearl Jam bootleg collection on an external hard drive simply because it's easy to have and on the rare occasion when I want to listen to a show I don't have to find it online first.
