Episode 277: Memphis, TN - 3/25/1994

Live On 4 Legs: Pearl Jam Podcast

This episode is about uncovering unsolved mysteries within Pearl Jam lore. We're back to celebrating the 30th anniversary of the memorable 1994 tour, and we find ourselves covering a Memphis show that does not get the acclaim that other shows from this run do. But perhaps this show is more significant than we think? We invite on Patron Mike Cribier to share his stories from this night that had been held back for quite some time. After sharing his recollection of this show to Pearl Jam fan run sites, his information could not be verified, and his story was never told. We're going to rectify that in this episode! As video from the early 90s tends to be a crapshoot for some Pearl Jam shows, this is indeed a show that does not have any visual aid. So how is it possible to tell if or when things are happening just by listening to bootleg audio? The stories that get revealed feature a fan getting heavily involved in Leash, Mike crowd surfing while wearing a Nosferatu mask and potentially the most important, Ed smashing his mic stand into the ground to create a massive hole. This is something that was famously done in Boston only weeks after, but could this have been the first ocassion? We'll get into talking about those storylines, as well as some excellent performances with the highlights being Deep, Not For You, Porch and Blood. We'll also talk about a pre-Vitalogy version of Last Exit... that a fan in the crowd knows the lyrics to?
