so did the spectrum shows..
That's not entirely true.
I can confirm. I was at night 2, sitting right in front of the soundboard, and it was easily the worst sounding concert I've ever attended. Total shit. Like trying to hear a boombox across the grand canyon.

I'll be honest with myself, I definitely gave them passes that night in the moment due to the emotion. But there were definitely plenty of songs that were performed so badly that I remember sitting their shaking my head. No Way comes to mind especially. I was so excited to finally get to see it live and I couldn't enjoy it.

It's actually a vicious cycle Pearl Jam have gotten themselves into. The more I notice them performing poorly at a show, the less excited I am to see a show. The less excited I am to see a show, the less likely I am to not notice a poor performance. They've destroyed any benefit of the doubt they might have once had.

The bootlegs magnify the crappiness of the performance ten-fold. I don't understand how anybody can listen to show #3 and say that it's one of their greatest performances. It just boggles my mind.
