Pearl Jam

Back in October 1993, Pearl Jam was riding the wave of their immense success with the breakout album, *Vs.*, which dropped just a couple of months earlier, on October 19. This album cemented their place as one of the leading bands of the grunge era, showcasing hits like "Go" and "Animal"—both of which are featured in the San Jose concert recorded on October 30. The concert at SJSU Event Center was not just another gig; it was a key moment during their rise to fame, highlighting the band's electric energy and connection with fans. Fun fact: not long after this concert, *Vs.* became the fastest-selling album in history at the time, proving that Pearl Jam was not just a flash in the pan but a formidable force in rock. This live performance captures a band at a thrilling juncture, with a rawness and intensity that fans still cherish today.
