At the 1:54 mark, Eddie finishes his red bottle of wine. I remember everyone put their hands up as he "blessed" the crowd with a few left-over drops. I put my hands forward in the front row, and he leaned over and threw the bottle to me. The body guards took it from me, and said I would get it back... and I did! Still got it in my room at home!
That’s totally awesome! In Houston back in the mid 60’s I saw The Beach Boys and got a bottle of 7UP that the drummer Dennis Wilson put down beside me. I picked it up and put it to my lips. There was a little alcohol in it. I kept it until I got married.
i was at this concert when i was 20.... what an experience to be in the pit at such a great show. this brings me back to an amazing time.... thanks for posting this.
Yep...my girlfriend and I were 22-23. Went to the Golden Gate show when Eddie got sick with food poisoning and Neil Young came out and played for 2hrs. Ed came back out and told everyone to keep their tickets and this show would be free. I road tripped from Washington State University in Pullman just for this show. Snuck an SLR camera in and took 40-50 photos. We were up and to the right from this camera view.
KOME gave away a really decent cd boot of this show not to long after. Still one my favorite shows, as I was lucky enough to be there. It was 89 degrees in San Jose that afternoon November 4th, 1995, and one of the greatest memories of my life.
I got one of those boot leg CD’s. It has the entire concert from start to finish. One of my favorite concerts of all time. Especially after the disappointment of the show at golden gate park.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost the account password. I would love any help you can give me
@Armando Timothy Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Best show ive ever seen. Eddie seemed to have found peace by this show. I had seen them 5x before but he was just so happy during this show. It was the makeup for the golden gate show when he had food poisoning.
I won tickets to this show off the radio. I was dirt ass poor in the military, so this was extra special! Only time I ever crowd surfed! To this day (2024), this is still the #1 concert I have ever seen, and I have been to lots of shows!! Amazing band, amazing night!

Make up show for the Golden Gate gig was more than any band could do. Pearl Jam was so cool about it. I remember getting free tickets in the mail for this show. This was right when they hit their prime.
+FreeMTrider Agreed my friend! You know what is funny? When they played the original gig in Golden Gate Park - when Vedder got "sick" - The replacement was Neil YOUNG!!!! Holy Jesus!
M Brickey Neil Young must have played Rocking in the Free world four or five times...lol. I know when PJ was on song seven or eight, Eddie looked like crap. I was pretty close to the stage and he looked pale as a ghost and they said he threw up between songs. I remember something was announced stating he had the flu? They rest of the band looked good and played with Young, so I don't think it was from partying...but those were crazy days too..lol.
I was at both shows too. I think the Golden Gate show was a turning point for the band and the grunge scene. I was in the pit getting shoved as they ripped the VITALOGY set list and the energy was intense. One song after another, more intense than the previous. It reminded me a lot of their earlier shows where Vedder would stage dive and climb on scaffolding. Grunge at it's best. The make-up show in San Jose was great but really was more subdued for me. The band sounded great and there were some great jamming moments, but for me the intensity and angst which made the essence of a lot of PJ music just wasn't there. Shortly thereafter No Code was released and the band seemed to change direction. I dig their newer stuff, but I feel the glory days of PJ was definitely the VS. - Vitalogy era. I wish they would have continued in that direction, but being on the heels of Cobain's death and the second wave of "diluted grunge" knocking at the door I bet they felt compelled to dilute their music as well to hit a more mainstream audience.
I was at the Golden Gate Park show when Eddie got sick and had to stop the show, but was lucky enough to see Bad Religion and Neil Young that day. I was 18yrs old and went to work the salmon season in Alaska after that and came back to find Pearl Jam had scheduled this make up show. I went and was fairly close to the front and had my mind blown! I clearly remember Eddie coming out and playing the solo acoustic song as a special intro and also was introduced to Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals that day...what a fucking epic day!!!
Me too! Had some killer ectasy going so I don't remember much but a lot of people climbing over us. We were in the 11th row!! It was our makeup concert for him being ill in San Fran. SUCH a BLAST!!
@KPD017 - Lol- I couldn't handle that crush and had to exit that field- Sat in the bleachers for most of that show- had a good spot way over Mike's side, overlooking the front side of the stage.
My first headling PJ show! Fucking amazing energy that day, I'm somewhere in that frantic pit! Also discovered who Ben Harper was that magical day. Thanks for the amazing flashback...god I love youtube for this!
I was there for my 1st show in SF, for Neil Jam show (on vacation) Moved out there in Oct 1995 just in time for the makeup show. Very much later I would meet the woman who'd eventually become my wife. All because of our love for Pearl Fucking Jam!
holy fucking christ! Mike McCready! First that insane solo for Black, and then you just give probably the best performance Blood has ever had. Amazing fucking show.
Ben Harper opening with Innocent Criminals was awesome. It was so hot. We lost all our friends but would then find them and lose them again. They sprayed us down with fire hoses it was so bad. Eddie made up for the bridge show benefit when he was sick, he really rocked this one like 2x as long as normal. We were all getting crushed against the security rails up front the push was so bad. Smaller people were getting crushed, security would help pull them up and out to the sides, theyd drink water and be right back in 2 songs. Pretty sure my very tall buddy Justin yelled yellow ledbetter at the end and they did a final encore (that's a fuzzy memory). One of the best times of my life this night.
1:34:40 Why Go - there's just something real kool about Jack's imperfect almost ape-like drumming, he drums that song like he doesn't care not trying to sound like any other drummer who has played it, I really dig that groove
i'm a kid right my mom saw pearl jam in rome of 1993 i just talked to my pe teacher he was at this show it was his first concert he said the pit was huge and that he was 15 and that's what pits were made for lol
WOW! What a crazy concert! Awesome concert but crazy! Love Pearl Jam, absolutely love Eddie Vedder 💓 never been to a Pearl Jam concert, very much I regret, been my favorite band since the beginning.
Me either 😔 I was listening to a lot of R.E.M back then.I was recently introduced to them via my 15 year old niece! I've been listening to them almost exclusively for pretty much the last 6 months! 😯🥰
@@pennysmom0720 I understand. When I discovered them about 5 years ago, I nearly lost my mind! I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. And Eddie is totally gorgeous. I was about 68 at that time. Completely hooked.
@@ListedMia-sm4xm awww thank you friend. I’m flattered by your words. I guess I’ve always tried to be young at heart…as was my mother and grandmother. But probably not great-grandmother…I vaguely remember her and her little house with feather beds and pillows. Now dear @ListedMia-sm4xm you sound pretty cool yourself❤️✌️🙋🏻♀️😎
Yes. I was at both, too. They fit in another tour stop in November to make up for the Golden Gate Park concert. Bad Religion and Neil Young were both great (at the June show), but everyone was there to see Pearl Jam. They played something like seven songs and then Eddie had to call it quits.
@@sv-yh3mq definitely had at least one copy of this show on vhs at some point in the 90s. Got rid of most my tapes that weren’t 1st generation copies or a source for circulating dvds.
Weird to hear how different all the drummers were. Here Jack Irons plays Even Flow at a much faster beat than Matt Cameron, and I love Matt... but Dave was my favorite PJ drummer of all!
+Gary W Actually I think you're thinking of the original June show in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. At this "makeup" show in November, the openers were the Fastbacks and Ben Harper.
I was at the 6-24-1995 show in San Fran when Eddie was to sick? to continue playing. Neil Young Continued his set for 2+ hours. Is the the redo show I went to in San Jose?
@virginiaknighten4687- you are right about that, because I was up in the bleachers, nearest Mike's side, and I saw a lot of people crowd surf all the way to and over the front rail, getting pulled over it by a guard, "put" onto their feet, and pushed out of there. I think I'd heard them say, "and don't do it again" - it looked like a grab and herd 'em out, with vigor- It was wild!
@mikedelarosa7683* this was my 2nd time seeing Pearl Jam live, and it was awesome- and I've gone onward to see them over the years, and it has been a good thing. My +1 to Pearl Jam shows has been my granddaughter, Natalia since 2021- we've seen PJ live seven times together- and it has been fun! At this show, in '95, I took my then teenage daughter, ( Nat's future mom) with her best friend. We had a blast. I still have the Mr Point t- shirt from that show. I couldn't stay on the field, because of the crush, so I moved to Mike's side, and I remember in the dark, seeing the field of people, open up round circles of ( slam?) dancing, and it was random, opening as a circle, then closing, while others formed spontaneously- and looked like a big giant living, breathing cell looking down at the masses in the field from the bleachers. That place was packed!
Okay, Dave’s the best musician for the band, Jack was the best fill in, and Matt has the best chemistry with the band. Plain and simple. Matt’s been around the longest because he obviously is their favorite drummer to be around, nothing wrong with that.
I agree with T I B E R U S. I think that Dave was the best and most skilled drummer, Irons was an amazing fill in, but also a great songwriter and very creative. And Matt is a really good drummer who the band have great chemistry with.
I was there so close to front... Eddies eyes were so blue... Best show blew me away. I love Pearl Jam. I am in this video so cool...
Me too (up front, I mean) I ate a tic tac all day. It was so hot sitting down there waiting for it to begin.
At the 1:54 mark, Eddie finishes his red bottle of wine. I remember everyone put their hands up as he "blessed" the crowd with a few left-over drops. I put my hands forward in the front row, and he leaned over and threw the bottle to me. The body guards took it from me, and said I would get it back... and I did! Still got it in my room at home!
Amazing seeing this video here!
That’s totally awesome! In Houston back in the mid 60’s I saw The Beach Boys and got a bottle of 7UP that the drummer Dennis Wilson put down beside me. I picked it up and put it to my lips. There was a little alcohol in it. I kept it until I got married.
the fact u got it back is incredible, fuck yes

He finally got what he wanted. To be less powerful of a band. You can hear it in his voice that the end is near
I am so happy I was at this show when it happened and here it is on you tube. Thank you for bringing a great memory back to life for me.
I was there! One of the legendary PJ concerts. Up close in the pit at Spartan Stadium...what a crowd, what great opening bands! And PJ was incredible!
