DVD Reviews of Pearl Jam - Touring Band 2000

DVD Review: Touring with the band...
Summary: 5 Stars

Ok, this dvd is very straight forward, the performances come from different shows during the U.S. tour for Binaural and is very well edited, so well, that if you didn't notice the guys changing shirts you probably wouldn't know that they come from different shows.
This dvd includes the never released in the U.S. video for "Oceans", the song from the band debut album Ten. Also has the "Do The Evolution" video. The quality of the recordings is very good but not excellent (at least in the video department) and, if you're not a Pearl Jam fan it may get a little boring after the first hour or so, so if you're not a big Pearl Jam fan I recommend you buy "Immagine In Cornice" which is a more fulfilling experience for the casual fan.

DVD Review: 2000 Pearl Jam Live dvd.
Summary: 5 Stars

Pearl Jam must have recorded every show that year, because numerous CD's were available, from everywhere, that they went. In any case, this dvd contains highlights from several different shows, all pieced together, to represent one show. Well photographed, with quality sound, and a fine performance and set list as well. Pearl Jam is essentially a live band, and that comes across on this dvd.

DVD Review: Boaring.
Summary: 1 Stars

Pearl Jam look like and sound like a typical radio friendly manufactured crap band now, and what the hell is up with Vedder?!?! This band used to kill onstage and have brilliant music......now they just suck.

DVD Review: Waiting for Blu-ray
Summary: 4 Stars

Just watched this for the first time. I really enjoyed the song selection on here and they pull off a nice presentation showing the cities they are in for each particular song. Did not care for the fact it is in a 1.33:1 presentation but hey, I can live with it. The video is not bad for what it is but expect heavy grain and edge enhancement. Audio is good with a Dolby Digital track. Their Madison Square concert DVD is still my favorite overall but I am putting this in at a solid 2nd choice.

Bring on the Blu-ray releases already!

DVD Review: Best Live Band in America; Possibly The World
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a real fan. Have been ever since I saw Alive on MTv in '91 and thought to myself that little guy must have a hurricane in his throat. So my review is clearly biased, although with good reason.
I really picked the right band to be my all-time favorite. What a wealth of real talent, integrity, dignity, and staying power. I'm proud of this band.
Although I also own Live at the Garden and Immagine in Cornice, Touring Band is my favorite concert dvd from Pearl Jam. The 2000 tour seems to me to be when they decided that they were going to keep at it (after a few difficult years) and ultimately become legends.
I Got Id and the It's OK tag on the end of daughter are worth the price of the dvd alone.
Thanks for reading.

Description of Pearl Jam - Touring Band 2000

The first Pearl Jam full-length DVD features three hours of live and montage footage from the band's 2000 U.S. and European tours. The main body of the DVD program is comprised of 28 full song performances filmed in various cities on the band's 2000 48-city U.S. tour, reflecting the time and composition of an actual concert set list. The DVD was filmed by Pearl Jam crew members Liz Burns, Steve Gordon, and Kevin Shuss without directors or producers. An additional 50 minutes of special bonus features includes footage from the band's 2000 European tour, backstage footage, previously unreleased music, special consumer-chosen camera angles, the previously unreleased video for "Oceans," and more. Edited by Steve Gordon. Recorded and mixed by Brett Eliason and engineered by John Burton.

Track list: Long Road, Corduroy, Grievance, Animal, Gods' Dice, Evacuation, Given to Fly, Dissident, Nothing as It Seems, Evenflow, Lukin, Not for You, Daughter (into "It's OK" by Dead Moon), Untitled, MFC, Thin Air, Leatherman, Betterman, Nothingman, Insignificance, I Got Shit, RVM, Wishlist, Jeremy, Evolution, Don't Go, Parting Ways, Rocking in the Free World

Special bonus features:

Stationary "Matt-cam" footage is available with a heavier percussion mix for two of the songs featured on the main body of the DVD: "Evacuation" and "Even Flow" and also for "In My Tree." (The "Matt-cam" is a special camera positioned behind drummer Matt Cameron that the consumer can switch to while viewing the DVD.)

European montages: City, band, and fan montages from the European tour with "Yellow Ledbetter" live and previously unreleased instrumentals recorded by Pearl Jam during early Binaural sessions. Instrumentals titled: "Thunderclap," "Foldback," and "Harmony."

Imagine you've been given a carte blanche pass to follow Pearl Jam on their 2000 North American tour. Now take 28 songs performed in 19 different cities (with the band's hometown, Seattle, getting the lion's share of five songs), and capture them for posterity, courtesy of three PJ crewmembers, who formed a kamikaze documentary unit with handheld video cameras. In the words of frontman Eddie Vedder (whose liner notes are dated February 14, 2001), this three-hour DVD is "in some ways the visual equivalent of the bootlegs that have been released in the past year... a basic document of what may occur at any given Pearl Jam concert." Well, it's all that and more. The gritty, homespun approach is totally appropriate for the band's no-frills performance of straightforward, superlative rock & roll, and the sound recording is nothing less than spectacular, especially if you honor Vedder's request to "PLEASE PLAY THIS MOVIE LOUD."

Singling out highlights is like trying to pick a favorite child; every viewer will have favorites, and every choice is justified. The death of grunge is Pearl Jam's blessing. Having proven its endurance, the band flourishes in the absence of overexposure. Everyone's in peak form (we like the beard, Eddie), and the DVD's bonus features are both fun and substantial, including city, band, and fan montages from PJ's earlier European tour, Todd McFarlane's outstanding animated "Do the Evolution" video, and three songs featuring "Matt Cam," fixed on drummer Matt Cameron, with percussion mixed louder on the Dolby Digital 5.1 audio track. The only possible complaint is the absence of interviews or backstage footage, but that's a trivial quibble. It's the music that matters, and as an audiovisual record of PJ's 2000 tour, this DVD was created with all the right priorities. --Jeff Shannon
