Pearl Jam

In June 2000, during the Pinkpop Festival, Pearl Jam performed the iconic song "Black," a standout track from their sophomore album, "Vs.," which was released in 1993. At this point in their career, the band was riding high on the success of their fifth studio album, "Binaural," which had come out in May 2000 and was received positively by critics and fans alike. Pearl Jam’s live performances during this era were noted for their heightened intensity and emotional connection, particularly in songs like "Black." Notably, this performance was part of a European tour that sought to reconnect with fans after a hiatus from extensive touring in the late 1990s. The band's commitment to live sound and powerful lyrics is exemplified in this performance, which reflects their continued evolution and significance in the rock landscape.
