Just got back from the show:
I can die a happy man,
Now that I've seen Pearl Jam!
Greatest Show on Earth!

Mathieu Bierne (matt@laposte.net):
Sacrebleu (french expression). Yesterday's show was amazing. First the VANDALS. They played for the last time with PEARL JAM, and for this last time they were great. They started with their Grease's cover and they continued with their fantastic pop-punk songs (My girlfriend's dead, And now we dance, It's a fact....) to finish with the usual guitarist' streap tease on I have a date. Just before saying Goodbye farewell... They made the crowd hotter than it was before. They won once again...

So, here it comes... PEARL JAM...Sometimes to start the show and I felt like it's gonna be excellent (I wasn't wrong!!!!) They go on with new songs like Breakerfall, God's Dice, Insignificicance, Nothing as it Seems, Light Years (and some others I don't exactly remember!!!). They didn't forget to play their old songs (and all my favs songs) Corduroy, Fuckin' up, Rearviewmirror, Wishlist, Yellow ledbetter... I can't tell them all they're all great!!!

After the show some conclusions were on my mind: I was one of the greatest show I've ever seen, PEARL JAM is a a great rock'n'roll band, Mike's an amazing guitarist and next time I'll take another tee shirt because mine were really really wet!!! I hope seeing PEARL JAM live another time in few months... They are the rock'n'roll!!!

Guillaume:
Hello there. The show yesterday night was great, professional and with no concessions...and the sound was really good too (It's not always the case in Bercy).

Strangely, I'd say McCready was the star of the evening. I don't know what he was on but he blew the audience away. He really was on another planet and his solos were killing everybody. Oh yeah, and he smashed his guitar on his amp after an amazing version of 'Rearviewmirror 'and he threw some bits of it to the first rows. Gossard was his usual cerebral self but even he looked impressed at McCready performance - at one point Gossard stopped playing and stood aside just to watch McCready play. Also, Vedder insisted they play another encore after 'Fuckin' Up', so they finished on a wonderful 'Yellow Ledbetter' with all the lights on. Bercy was not packed, but there probably was 14.000 people.

Pearl Jam in Paris, June 2000 : mmm, quite a nice evening.
