2010 Covers Live

The 2010 tour produced 5 new covers, 2 of them have been played one time only ("OTO" songs). Jersey Girl and Goin Back To Indiana have been played one time before in 1998. And let this MSG performance of Hunger Strike be there until we finally get that famous 2003 Temple Of The Dog set with Chris Cornell in soundboard quality! Note, that Walk With Me from the second Bridge School show is a bit different to the first one, used in 2010 European tour compilation.

2010 European Tour Compilation

European part of 2010 tour was mainly a festival run with shortened and pretty similar set lists, except only couple of "normal" shows. Also Ed's vocal form was nothing in comparison to previous fantastic US leg. But we cannot rate European tour as a heap of garbage. The first highlight was the debut of brand new song - Of The Earth, maybe the heaviest and most agressive song musically after the Ten era. And this is the first song with improv jam inside after Rearviewmirror! The second highlight was very touching Moment of silence during Berlin show dedicated to "nine friends we'll never know" - the victims of Roskilde tragedy 10 years ago. Next song performed was Come Back and Eddie could not hold his tears during singing. This is why this Come Back is definitely not the best live Come Back, but I strongly believe that this touching performance must not be omitted from this compilation.

As the European tour did not provide too many special songs, I also used songs from 2010 Bridge School Benefit (I had to use these beautiful songs somewhere!). Debut of Santa Cruz, two new great covers, "lullaby" version of Better Man (Ed played it before in his solo shows) are the real pearls for this compilation. And finally I've found a good modern Release not disrupted by Boom Gaspar's piano "playing". :)

My personal favorite show for this tour is Portugal. Also Irish shows were interesting to listen. And, in opposition to fan's reviews, French gig was loud and good.

Riot Act Live

Riot Act is very dark depressive album. Songs from Can't Keep to Thumbing My Way (plus All Or None) are strongly bound together lyrically with Eddie failing to find the way out of problems around him and around the world. Some songs are nothing but the enraged political attacks. Maybe this is why so many cool and positive outtakes from Riot Act sessions were omitted from the album.

Down, Undone, Last Soldier - this compilation has got very strong bonus. There's no Arc in set-list because the band erased all it's live performances from 2003-tour official bootlegs. But you could hear this song in Eddie Vedder's solo bootlegs from 2008 and 2009. And there's no Help Help because it was performed only in 2003, but my work on this year still has not been started.

1. Can't Keep
