Pearl Jam 2022 Tour Reaction: Ep. 20 – Amsterdam

The last week has been filled with disappointment for Pearl Jam fans. One canceled show after another, it was tough to wake up in the morning or arrive to the arena and hear the news that Pearl Jam would not be playing. After Vienna, Prague and the first night of Amsterdam, they had one more shot to make this work. Luckily enough, Ed’s voice had been given the green light and the show proceeded as scheduled. Although it was promised from the beginning that this would be a very different show than anything they’d ever done, they came and delivered on their promise. An electric sit-down set to start, a few requests and rare songs and then the big guns that Ed had to adjust his voice a little bit to pull off made this night as close to an instant classic as there is on this tour. And everyone got a chance to sing! Lot’s to cover, last one until we come back in September! Enjoy! (Edit note: I may have said Mike McCready didn’t get a lot of moments and I clearly failed to give a nod to Nothing As It Seems. Rare L I suppose)
