22 What A Waste
Taper’s notes: I was in the second row center for the first 4 songs, but the pogo/pushing/screaming/blasphemous shouts
were just unbearable, so during the ‘Cross The Breeze coda I moved back a bit to the side of the stage in front of the left speaker stack. There I stumbled into some good friends of mine and everything became a sort of celebration, a bit of small talking, screaming and singalong added by the surrounding crowd (not too good for the recording….sorry), but we didn’t talk while they played, so you’ll hear a bunch of banter and stupid sentences in Italian/local dialect between the songs. All in all I think this is a pretty decent audience recording, especially considering this has been my first “taping” experience ever without a soundboard input and I never tried the Edirol “on the field”. The sound was pretty good, Kim’s voice a bit too low in the mic maybe and the drums not too clear, but no major issues. I had to switch the channels because I “wore” the recorder with a sort of necklace, and could not point it towards the stage as you’re supposed to do with it.

Notes:
I bought this as a boxed set in a cd store by my house in dallas
in 1997. It cost me ~65$ us. The packaging is a bronze/brass box
with an embossed Pearl Jam logo on the front, and the entire track
listing stickered on the back. The sticker on the back also states
that is is one of 1000 ever produced. It was used when i bought it,
and i have only played it a limited number of times.
The important parts of the booklet were scanned and included along with
this release. Some of the files are originals (scans, most of this txt
file) from when I posted this to stg in 2003 as shn files. This is a
new rip, all of the files were ripped with no skips detected by eac.
The cds were badly scratched when I purchased them, I have repaired
them once, and this is likely to be the last time the originals
see a cd player/drive for quite some time.
Enjoy…
