Episode 339: Jones Beach - 8/23/2000

In August of 2000, Pearl Jam was going through a period of growth following the aftermath of the tragedy at Roskilde. As they toured throughout North America, every stop was a chance to heal from that moment. As they hit close to the end of the month, they prepared for three massive shows at Jones Beach Amphitheater located on Long Island in the shadow of New York City. There was a sense that they needed to deliver, and they exceeded every expectation. Night 1's show might not get the same praise as the two that precede it, but it was a great way to warm up this crowd and get things kicked off on the right note. In this episode, we'll spend some time breaking down some classic Binaural performances such as Nothing As It Seems, God's Dice and Sleight Of Hand while sharing our favorite order to hear the Man Trilogy and a superb Long Road open. We'll also talk about this version of Daughter which sets the tone for the legendary Daughter and It's OK tag performance the next night. This is just part one! The next two episodes will cover the remaining Jones Beach shows from 2000, so stay tuned for our breakdown of those legendary nights!
