Today's trip down Pearl Jam memory lane takes us back 29 yrs to Brisbane. It's a moment of synergy perfectly captured: Jack's funky playing, Stone and Jeff keeping things on point, and singular interplay between Ed and Mike. #tfh "Animal," March 21, 1995:

21 years ago today, Pearl Jam played Philly's Spectrum for the 1st time. 6 yrs before PJ closed the building, they were met by the loudest U.S. crowd we've ever heard. Here, Ed beautifully improvs for a local 12 year-old. #tfh "Betterman," April 28, 2003:

Happy 64th birthday to Michael Stipe! Over the years, he and @remhq have shared the stage with Ed and PJ many times. From benefit shows like Tibetan Freedom '97 and this @rockhall induction to the Earthlings tour. #tfh Our Pearl Jam / R.E.M. playlist:

In the fall of '93, PJ took the power and groove of "Once" to a new stratosphere. They extended the bridge, jammed out its sensational riff, exploded for the final chorus, and created thrilling renditions- like 30 yrs ago today. #tfh "Once," Nov. 2, 1993:

Today's trip down PJ memory lane lands us outside Phoenix. We get vintage PJ: idealism in that they donated the show's proceeds to local Native American community and youthfulness as Ed lights up MANY cigarettes at once. #tfh "Glorified G," Nov. 6, 1993:

A year ago today, PJ played @thekiaforum in LA. Mid-song, Ed needed a break (bathroom?) and signaled to extend the bridge. What ensued was equal parts inspired and sloppy, but totally riveting. #tfh "State of Love and Trust" extended bridge, May 6, 2022:

In fall of '09 Pearl Jam had a new album and a new tour - the perfect time to resurrect a 'Yield' deep cut. This was just their 4th time playing this song - the first in over a decade (!) - and PJ absolutely crushed it. #tfh "No Way," Sept. 22, 2009:
