Episode 152: Hartford, CT - 9/13/1998 Live On 4 Legs: Pearl Jam Podcast

- Music
This episode takes a look into a show on the Yield tour from Hartford, CT that was the follow-up show to one from Madison Square Garden that many consider to be among the best of all time. While much of this episode is Randy stepping up to his soapbox to profess his love for shows in his home state, it's also taking a key critical factor in Pearl Jam touring and asking the important question - is the band OK with having a down show immediately after playing one for the ages? With Hartford being sandwiched in between two big cities, you'd think it would be an opportunity for the band to possibly take the night off. Whether they do or not is a discussion in itself, but you'll have to listen in to hear what Stone thought about this show in particular.
We'll react to Stone's quote and try to put the pieces together as to why maybe this isn't a show that many people go back to from the era. It certainly has moments. Breath, after famously being brought back for the first time since 1994 at MSG, is played once again. Alive and Porch at the end present a situation where Ed had to manage the security team, because how dare those Connecticut fans dance in the aisles. And there are great versions of Do The Evolution, Daughter, Spin The Black Circle and Brain Of J all packed in. Was this a lull show? You'll just have to tune in to find out!
