23/5/00 - Estadio Do Restelo, Lisbon, Portugal Reviews:
# 1 in a series 
2007-01-28 - When I first discovered that Pearl Jam decided to release every show of their Binaural tour in 2000 I was initially skeptical of their intentions. I thought it was just another way for them to attarct attention in order to raise their diminished public profile and dwindiling record sales. While the cardboard sleeves these albums are packaged in are not exactly glamourous and actually cause damage to the discs after a while the musical contents of these bootlegs can be a potent reminder of why Pearl Jam, even on an off night, is one of the most thrilling and mercurial live bands of the last twenty years. This paticular show is their first of the tour and of the series and while you can definitely find more musically proficent ones it is a still a good introduction to their no overdubs, warts and all approach to live albubs. A good example of this is found in Faithful when, in the middle of the song, Matt Cameron's drums fall to the ground (the band continues and finishes the song, believe it or not.) Moments such as these are one reason for fans of the band to look into these albums as much as listening to the band tear into Animal and Red Mosquito. After the "technical difficulties" of the drums are sorted out during Last Kiss the show flows pretty well until Immortality when Ed forgets the words to Immortality (get used to this, he does this almost everytime this song is played during the tour.) Also, the band struggle to find their feet on Alive (another difficult song for them on this leg of the tour.) The band finish on a high note with their perennial closer, Yellow Ledbetter. All and all, a good introduction to what will prove to be a stellar series of shows to come.
Great for first show. 
2006-11-21 - I finally bought this show from Lisbon, overall it is a superb show! The audience is having a good time as well as the band. The setlist is nice with Eddie doing a solo version of Last Kiss, and great takes on Red Mosquito and Black. There are some minor errors in this show but it doesn't effect the bands good spirits and the audience sure is estatic, if you looking for a PJ show that is high in energy and everyone is having a great time, this is it. This show is one of my favorites, it only falls behind Milan and Prauge.
Best live crowd EVER!!!
2003-03-29 - Yes, Eddy flubs lines in Wishlist and Immortality.
Yes, the drums break in the middle of Faithful.
But get this cd just for the crowd. That's right, the audience is the star of this concert. I have a few of these bootlegs and nothing matches this Lisbon crowd. Wish I was there.
I WAS THERE PEOPLE!!!
2002-11-09 - I'm Portuguese, i was there! It rocked so hard, you wouldn't believe! The portuguese crowd is definetly one of the best in the world, and it's refered by many bands as so. This show was scheduled for the atlantic pavillion, which has a capacity of 15.000, but the tickets sold out in a week, so it was re-scheduled to a rather big stadium nearby.
Almost every song was sanged along with the band, as it is in almost every concert played in portugal!
Scorpions recorded their "unplugged" album and dvd here too.
We are proud of the reviews, thanks for the recognition!
Pearl Jam Rocks!
Annoying crowd, poor sound quality 
2002-02-17 - I just recently started collecting the pj bootleg series, and this one is the worst one I got so far. First, the sound quality is much worse than some of the other ones I have (seattle2, boston2), the audience noise is very grainy sounding. Also, the crowd is pretty annoying, they do these weird chants (sounds like "alive") throughout the concert between songs. The performances in general sound very lack luster. On the other hand, this is the only one of the series that has all four big pj songs from the first album: alive, even flow, black, and jeremy.
