Episode 347: Raleigh, NC - 5/13/2025

Coming in at number 4 on our list of the Top 5 Pearl Jam shows of the 2025 tour is the second night from Raleigh, North Carolina! The night one crowd was treated to a sampling of songs that are almost never played at a Pearl Jam show, so night two needed to step it up a notch and it did. From the massive surprise of opening the show with Setting Sun, to a version of Untitled paying homage to the local fans in attendance, there are no lack of big time moments to celebrate from this one. Joining the podcast this week are two friends who have unique stories from attending this show. We invite Lori Jernberg and Steve Bennett to the pod this week. Steve will talk about the importance of taking in a show together with family, and he'll rave about Rocky Marciano's undefeated streak that was no match for Wreckage, which was not played for the first time after 45-straight shows. Lori's story is about how the loss of a close friend made this night emotional for her, but it's also about how she managed to get Eddie's attention and came home with the ultimate gift you can get from a Pearl Jam show. Randy was also there at this show taking it in with Lori in GA, and he'll speak of his own experiences with family and loss, and perhaps other reasons why this show made an impact on him. It's a jam packed episode with incredible stories as well as the normal setlist breakdown. Keep tuning in to find out what show is dubbed #1 for the year!
