[Update 10/20] The man behind the camera recently commented on a few of these videos. Here's what he said about the show: "This was months before they took on the Mookie Blaylock moniker. I labeled the video tape as: 'Stone Gossard/Jeff Ament Post Love Bone Project - Off Ramp Cafe, Seattle WA 10/22/90' ... it was apparent during the show that this new "project" of theirs was certainly something special - during one of the songs you can hear me and Mike (the guy who's band played after them) talking and saying something to the effect of 'this is fucking beautiful...!'"
P.S. All the videos can now be embedded for ease of distribution.
The ENTIRE FIRST SHOW EVER of Pearl Jam is up in this series. Known as Mookie Blaylock back then (10/22/1990). They were forced to change their name when they got a record deal, but still called their first album "Ten" - Mookie's jersey number.
An AMAZING, rare show for the hardcore Pearl Jam fan. Soundcheck is included: video numbered as "0". This is 5 of 8, Even Flow - The camera died 3/4 of the way through this one, starts back up in the beggining of the next tune, Black.

Its amazing the buzz they had in seattle after this show, from what i remember everyone started talking about them after this, of course it helped that alot of the members from pj had a small degree of sucess with mother love bone before this. Still it was only sucess in seattle at the time, then kurt cobain made a video and changed everything.

lol Eddie jumps in early "evv--" pause "EVEVN FLOW,,,"
He did the exact same thing during sound check. Afterall he was only 6 days into the band.
