Inside Job

By WoodyEdDMB
Solid show here from the boys.Inside Job as an opener is a surprise,I prefer Severed Hand(not played for some reason) as an opener for this tour,but this is a nice change of pace.The old classics are the standouts of course.Rats,Garden,Corduroy,Alive,Go,SOLAT,Daughter,Even Flow(I love this song,but they play it EVERY night) and of course,Black.The new songs sound better live than the studio versions.That has been the case with Pearl Jam since No Code.They record their releases in a low key,almost monotone way.Then live,BANG,the songs come alive.Listen to the versions of World Wide Suicide and Life Wasted,then play the studio versions and you will agree.Gone is another new song that I really like from this show. Little Sister(only the 3rd time played live) and Fortunate Son are played for the only time on the 2006 World Tour.A great jam version of Porch ends it.That is another nice change,not ending with Yellow Ledbetter or RITFW.Pearl Jam mix things up at all there shows,but this show,the setlist is REALLY changed.I would give this show a 4 1/2 if I could.I have owned this show since 2006(10 club),its worth it for $9.99.
