Pearl Jam Releases 186 Live Concert Recordings to Streaming Pearl Jam Releases 186 Live Concert Recordings to Streaming Services, Launches Bootleg Microsite More than 20 years after embarking on an ambitious authorized bootleg program that has seen the release of nearly 500 complete concerts, Pearl Jam today released 186 shows from its 2000, 2003, 2008 and 2013 tours to DSPs — including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and Tidal — encompassing a mind-boggling 5,404 songs. Originally made available for sale through Pearl Jam’s Ten Club fan organization, these live recordings have never previously been released in any comprehensive form on streaming services. In tandem with Universal Music Group and Republic Records, Pearl Jam has also launched Deep, a long-in-the-works immersive live hub featuring a searchable concert database, detailed show information and fan-curated, thematic playlists.
Nodding to the band’s diehard fans, Deep allows users to generate personalized setlists that can be transformed into streamable playlists as well a unique setlist graphic in frontman Eddie Vedder’s handwriting. Each show is augmented by personal descriptions and recaps written by Ten Club members. The site is launching in beta mode with plans to add more functionality in the future, particularly ahead of the 30th anniversary of Pearl Jam’s debut album, “Ten,” and the 25th anniversary of its fan-favorite fourth release, “No Code,” both in August.
“We’re really trying to make it easier for longtime Pearl Jam fans, bootleg aficionados and appreciators of Pearl Jam live music to stream the shows,” Ten Club head Tim Bierman tells Variety. “We’re also hoping that these tools will introduce live and bootleg Pearl Jam to a new generation of fans, who are more adept at navigating the streaming environment.”
Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |

Oh wow - I bought a bunch of the 2000 shows when they came out and got into the band for a little bit. Was just looking at them for the first time in ages the other day. Might stream a few shows for old times sake. | |

Really? Laughable. The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!
If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days... | |
