Pearl Jam - Reading Festival (27 August 2006) 01

I have been a fan of Pearl Jam since 1996. One of the reasons I traveled to the UK almost 4 years ago, was to see Pearl Jam live, and now, just over 10 years after I first started listening to their music, I was fortunate enough to see them live at the Reading festival.

It was an absolutely brilliant show. Very energetic. The band defenately fed on the crowd's energy, and the other way around as well.

The Review:
Please check back in a day or two for my review of this brilliant show!



The Videos:
I recorded a few short video clips with my camera. I'm in the process of editing, converting and uploading them. Please visit this site in a few days for the rest.



Betterman (This is just the beginning of the song, a brilliant sing along bit)



According to Eddie, this was the first time that Black Sabbath's Iron Man was
ever played on the ukelele.



Crown Of Thorns was a big suprise, but still brilliant (This is just the first bit
of the song).

The Photos:





The following three photos are of girls flashing their breasts for the video cameras. I do not want my blog removed because I have pictures of topless girls on it, but I don't want to exclude these photos either, so please do not click on the three links directly below if you are under 18!
