I'm so effing stupid to have missed this concert because of work. UGH. Even my manager went. haha.

[7SquareMealsADay]

[maurocabur]

they are tuned half tone down

[Cornellforever]

I was at this show. and did it kicks ass!!!!!

But why did they not play Jeremy????

[whygodrums10]

I cant believe a crowd of hipsters were diggin the shit out of pearl jam.

[jocorocket]

God I love this band! Those guys are having a good time!

[snookboy1]

does canada not have females?

[ajmurtagh]

No.

[PIOLIN122386]

[MrIsanity]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooow

[guilherme007s]

muito massa

[Foundation4life]

Why is this a frat boy sausage fest?

Amazing performance though, wonder why they haven't hit the late night shows or VH1 or anything for some pro shots

[goodez95]

how friggen good is ed vedder

[r3n3gade420]

insane weed smoke at 1:55 hehehe

[RELATIVO20]

VERY GOOD

[RunawayMongoose]

sry i meant to give that comment a thumbs up not down!

[njnetsfan524]

im surprised people were actually happy for them to play the fixer

[thorpe87]

The Fixer's actually grown on me probably the most off the new album, which is unusual for a single but there you go.

[javi212]

damn good band and song

[arleivr]

Very good and very crazy!!!

[curazy11]

haha it was so hard to stand in this one

[NirvanaVideoVault]

cant wait to see pearl jam in november!!

[UterusGoo]

I think this is being play half a step down tuned from the version on the record.

[thelastwish]

yeah the studio version is in the key of B Major, this one is Bb major.

[ryche513]

damn youre right....you must have some crazy ear for that hah

[thelastwish]

sort of, I'm pursuing my masters in Music Education, and Music theory, i was pretty confident in what i was hearing, but I'm the first to admit i DID check wikipedia to make sure i was right before posting. if you ever want to figure out at key esp, in popular songs ( not saying pearl jam is pop, but get what i'm saying), listen for reoccurring chords or notes, play them count intervals and accidentals and you'll find your key signature.

[rmysterio80]

@thelastwish u speak funneh words

[MrCaptainHero]

i agree

[BOBPOPROCK]

It's Live!! Everybody Doez it!

[titahemp]

very nice. pearl jam = best band of world.

[cota2007]

Fun song, great crowd! Gibson is gonna rock next week!!!!!

[BelieveYouMe]

Was this concert GA - you are so close!

[chinostaley]

PJ man!!!surfs up!!!

[racingsnake28]

I hope the authorities caught the digit amputater ,he seems to have been busy at this particular gig!

[keithoyoung34]

[DonLatice]

boomer is the keyborder

[H269H]

Fuckin awesome

[ratpony]

wow.. the crowd seem like a big bunch of munters! pay attention! eyes forward!! stop chucking things. dinguses. cool song though :)

[brasswars]

[bgdude1392]

whr is boom????

[TheFarmon]

0.57

[bicstic8]

SURFING!!! BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

[Joesquared3350]

why does everyone always feel the need to compare bands? Nirvana and Pearl Jam are both fucking great. Get over it. And i have no idea what RunawayMongoose is talking about. All of Nirvana's songs do not sound the same. You obviously haven't heard much by them.

[lau7171]

thanks so much for sharing this!

[Doifebag]

In 2006, I didn't think it was possible for the band to be any tighter, but judging from this video, 2009/10 is going to be something else entirely.

Also, Mike looks like he's in the best shape of his life. I'm loving it.

[bassplayeroceanside]

The studio version is in D

They played this in C# (1/2 step down)

This song is catchy as hell and fits in with my life so perfectly right now.

[wtewalt]

Yeah they usually do that to save a singers voice over the course of the set when they play for a longer time. Even being a seasoned vocalist, this song is probably hard on his vocals when played in the normal key

[mychaleg]

lovin all these shirtless douchebags! HELL YEAH BROS

[kaps328]

I LOVE THEM!!!!!!! <3<3<3<3<3

[mythinkingcloud]

NIRVAN MILK IT

[kdbrown777]

"Fight to get it back again"

Such a great line.

[RunawayMongoose]

pearl jam is way better than nirvana! nirvana's songs all sound the same. pearl jam likes to mix it up a little, even after all of these years! no one could ever beat pearl jam!!!!!

[STEJER0923]

I agree with you there pal. And for sure that what makes Pearl Jam truly an icon on music industry. That would be a great legacy.

[WickedChips]

First i heard this i thought naah ok, now its starting to be .. ohh fuck YEAH!!! and i cant wait to hear 01Gonna See My Friend -

[thegunclub123]

rablacklock, seriously

[rablacklock]

Who is Nirvana?

[jamnitro]

White rimmed sunglasses are for fags.......oh wait the guy is jumping around like one

[djericutz]

Would people stop comparing Pearl Jam and Nirvana.... If kurt was alive, there is NO WAY Nirvanas legacy would of lasted as long as pearl jam. Pearl jam is TIMELESS ...If youre just gonna hate and kiss Nirvanas ass.. the search button is up there, search for their videos. CANT WAIT TO SEE PJ OCT 1ST...

[doctorturbo1]

Nirvana 1

Pearl Jam 2

[davidHasselhoff]

If Nirvana are so great why do their fans feel the need to point it out on EVERY Pearl Jam video???

[sdc3536]

Because they have not gotten anything better to do, i mean its not like they can go listen to new Nirvana music right?

[enigma2312]

PEARL JAM doesn't have compare, they was, they are and they will !!!!

[shame60]

you can say that again Peopleppp. Now that Pearl Jam is back, shitty music won't be the only thing we have to look forward too. And let me explain what i mean by shitty music. I'm talkin about the All American Rejects, Hannah Montana, Demi Lovato, everysingle disney channel star, and just dumb shit like that.

But I do have to admit on thing. Pearl Jam is probably the best band from the 90's. That is, next to Nirvana. But anyways, PEARL JAM RULES!!!

[STEJER0923]

PEARL JAM truly rules even way back in 90's even with NIRVANA and other grunge band. Come on Nirvana only does it only for a short period of time then they died together with the death of Kurt Cobain. And, yet up to this time Eddie Vedder and the rest of the PJ still on their feet. And if people pay tribute to the legacy of Kurt that because he's dead. Pearl Jam is still ALIVE!!!!!!

[GLYPHKING]

nirvana still has expontentially better & timeless music imo

[Peopleppp]

i will def agree with you on the shity music and the best band of the 90's besides Nirvana, even though i do love bands like STP, & Alice in Chains

[Peopleppp]

im so glad Pearl Jam is back. finally good music is here

[severon1976]

So COOL to see the crowd sooooo HAPPY !!! A song to make EVERYONE feel HAPPY !!! When VEDDER & PEARL JAM is HAPPY we are TWICE as HAPPY !!! Including this time i said HAPPY 5 times cause this is the fuckn FIXER !!!!!!!

[zoso10101]

i was in that crowd YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!

[MrSmashngrab]

Pearl Jam + Australia November = Going to be EPIC!!! they just keep getting better and better....

[Monichey]

ya quiero verlos!!!!!!!

los adoro!!!!!

[bassnebula]

This song as some other ones in previews PJ albums, espacially in the last two albums and a few tracks in the lost dogs one, has the vibe, beat and melodical accentuations and arrangements as if IT were influenced by and from 80's rock club sound and style...

Anyway, this band keeps its uniqueness and PJ is a really good band....Like this song!!!!

[greentongueman]

i hate pearl jam,but this song is tight like a screw,like i always say about the clowns there is one song that will eventually get ya!

[texasradio73]

sounds like your the clown, why watch them if you hate them ??

[gitsumjosh]

I dont hate em,but I always liked their covers better an b sides better than the radio shit,

[smobeepj]

Dude in white sunglasses is cracking me up.

[Decoded69]

yeh that mosh was to much for me, stayed back, free tickets, still didnt think it was worth it, but pearl jam was better then expected, I set that whole stage n tents up mutha fuckas!!!

[coverMEinJAM]

nov 20th @ etihad stadium, melbourne australia BRING IT!!!!! note 2 those with tickets 2 any of these impending shows- if u would prefer 2 simply "watch" rather than "participate" and "experience", WHY GO??? juz look at the videos >:( some ppl have religion. i have pearl jam.. hail, hail!!!

[mmmartynek]

ok, I'm gonna see them tomorrow in berlin, but i rather want to watch the show than fight in the crowd like that :/

[fightingfoos]

His voice isn't that bad.

[freakiefreddiecan]

Any one mising a Guess sandal? To the beauty surfer chick, I have it!

[okitodd]

Okay Woogie...

[freakiefreddiecan]

Hey cutie, do you want it? It is a nice Sandle, and to determine if its yours, what colour is it?

[somehowthirty]

The Fixer - decent

Got Some - decent

Amongst the Waves - Great

Speed of Sound - Bad

Just Breathe - Bad

The End - ?

[Pravindaswani74]

Crazy Eddie's Alive and back again!!!!!

[plexitele]

was there front row, seen em twice before this. this was the best show I've been to in my life, I'm still high from it..........

[zeroenvy]

I love the crowd.. I wish i could see PJ in a setting like that..

[CodyT3212]

holy shit man. i really really want to see pearl jam live.

[hydragyrum85]

Wish to see Pearl Jam playing this song is Indonesia.

Just Wishlist

[ScarecrowAussie]

Looks like some stella fans. I was that dude with the curly hair and im almost 30 and i was surfing as thats what its about its called fun so chill out if you dont like it stand back and flick your bean but for all you true rockers out there much love and peace out till next show!!!!

[foofighterr1]

I fucking love partying with Pearl Jam fans.

[hdtvoice]

Sounds great live....

And yea, im 37, been following PJ since the early days (opening up for smashing pumpkins, chili peps), and yea, back then the crowds up front were insane... mosh pits, surfing, stage diving... of course eddie joined in back then as well... its also a location thing... back then I was in New Orleans and people down there go insane at concerts.. up here in Philly, they are more into the music.. basically general seating on the floor.. no mosh pits...

[xeineze07]

This is the first time they played this song live!!!!... the are amazing and it sounds so effin' good!!!

[wweye]

Im always so curious when i hear new music from a band, how it will come across, and be pulled off live....thanks so much for this!!! love it!

[jamielowndes]

Fuckin love this song, sounds awesome live too. Manchester 17th August!!!!!

[babaoriley8]

crowds a little crazy lol. but awesome song

[nevmiles]

total copping of cheap feels on that chick surfing @ 2:04 :-)

[vitalogy66]

:) good song

[AKOATZIN]

Eddie still the man thank you so much for posting this video means so much for a PJ fan you have no idea thank you again.

[sarahandcasey]

Sounds great!!!

[turningrobe15]

I was right up front. never noticed the crowd. Was to into the show .

[jocorocket]

I don't know. It didn't look that out of control. I mean it's PJ and the crowd is young. Of course it will be a little crazy. Nothing like their early shows.

[greendizeze]

really. im all for enjoying the show. but fucking shoving, surfing,etc. thats for kids. besides the fact that most of them have no clue what pj is all about. or whom they are for that matter. i was listening to this band when they were still shiting in their diapers.........

[corduroykelly]

I guess you never saw pearl jam in the 90's if your complaining about the pushing, shoving and body surfing.

[greendizeze]

honey. read my comment again. yeah i surfed in the 90s. i was 16.(a kid). and when was the last time you have seen eddie surf the crowd? so shut up stupid....

[corduroykelly]

will first I'm not a homo so don't call me honey you fag, And if you dumb fucking ass looked at the pictures of this show you would have seen Eddie Vedder swinging on a fucking rope over the crowd so go fuck yourself. and did you ever stop to think the people who body surf now are young. Use your fucking brain. I saw Eddie Vedder climb scaffolding a number of times on the last tour! Maybe you need to got to more pearl jam show Mr. Big Time fan!!!!

[corduroykelly]

Or no not swinging from a rope climbing scaffolding again so just stand their at a pearl jam concert and hold your beer. You look so cool when you do it. If only everyone could just stand their at a concert. The band would have no fucking energy from the crowd you dead beat fuck!

[corduroykelly]

If you had a clue what pearl jam was about you would know Eddie Vedder used to body surf in the crowd all the time.

[freakiefreddiecan]

Yah, I know what cha mean. In the pit there were some f@#$! whinners who shouldnt av been there. Bumping an grinding was great!

[BustedPretext]

The crowd was pretty good, in my opinion. I was anywhere from 2-15 feet from the rail directly in front of stone for the whole show. The crowd was wild when it was fun to bang around (Why go, Black circle) but never to rowdy that it was dangerous. Even the guys that were going pretty hard were very conscious about people falling.

I love seeing some energy in the crowd, and seeing PJ in a free for all setting like this isn't gonna happen too many more times.

[bedwinpark]

You're outa control Aussie!

[ScarecrowAussie]

Get over it its a fucking concert if you had a problem get the fuck out and stand behind the pitt like a tool. Its wasn't the best pitt but it was still fun Metrics pitt was way more chilled and was more fun.

[freakiefreddiecan]

Fuck, live a little, loser, oh ya probably have a stick shoved up your ass

[knikhil]

Awesome! I hope someone puts up 'Got Some'. Heard it was killer!

[bovyj]

The crowd looks retarded. Plainly.

But damn! That song is awesome!

[catrionamulholland]

GREAT VID!!! I have one of this song as well but you have a great angle and managed to get the whole song. Good on ya. Amazing!

[pearljamgirl08]

OMG!!! love it love it love iiiittt!!!

[corduroykelly]

O.K yea I've watched this 5 times now, You guys are right this crowd is full of tools!

[pearljampunk]

Told ya! lol.

[corduroykelly]

It's just that one guy who is a tool.

[heymanheyman45]

Dear Guy in the white shades,

This was not a rave. you don't need to dance like that. You're a tool.

Signed,

Everyone

[overbends]

first thing I thought of when I watched this too.

[merkin51]

My god what a stupid crowd... now I know why they normally have boring all-seated shows in the US and Canada. The band must love touring Europe, the crowds are so much better.

[corduroykelly]

Whats wrong with the crowd?

[ryderup]

most stupid crowd I have ever seen

[patrickpjfan]

Great video but what a bunch of dorks up front.

[jocorocket]

They're back in great form!

[rolfiscasatino]

great eddie is the one

[pearljampunk]

Thanks for the footage! The guy in the white shades man, that guy is comical. How are you supposed to enjoy a show when you got guy's like that moving all around, waving their arm's like they just don't care, pushing & shoving everybody around them? Why I love reserved 10club seating! You can't do that shit! ;)

[BluesMaddy]

It's called having fun and enjoying the music. It's not hard to tune those people out, and I'd much rather stand that sit at a rock concert.

[pearljampunk]

If you call having fun & enjoying the music running around in a circle, raising your hands and pushing other people around who are "trying to enjoy the music" fun, that's messed up. Plus, who sits @ a rock concert? 10club seats are reserved seats. We all stand (well mostly all) by our seated seats. We can do whatever we want. Go for a drink, go to the washroom, get some food, do whatever we want, without loosing our spot.

[pearljampunk]

Plus, we get the best experience in enjoying the music we love, by not letting other's try & take the fun away from it. No pushing, no shoving, no fights etc..

[corduroykelly]

Yea 10 clubbers stand there and hold their beer and don't do shit!

[irishtdawg]

Great stuff. Roll on Shepherds Bush Empire on the 11th, then Rotterdam, Berlin and back to London O2.

[JoseeL777]

PJ sounds great.

Looks like a sausagefest, half of those dorks in the vid aren't even paying attention to the show.

[Badmotorfinger112]

ohhh awesome :)) looking forward to the 15th ... berlin we're coming !!

[knoxnh]

amazing.

[IdleHandJnr]

Great footage, great song - thanks for posting!

[kristianPJ]

eddie sounds great
