Pearl Jam

In March 1998, when Pearl Jam played "Do the Evolution" live at Melbourne Park, they were riding high on the wave of their fourth studio album, *No Code*, released in late 1996. This album marked an artistic shift for the band, as they experimented with diverse sounds and lyrical themes, showcasing their growth and willingness to redefine themselves. The live performance in Melbourne highlighted their dynamic stage presence and solidified them as one of the leading forces in rock at that time. Interestingly, the song "Do the Evolution" is known for its powerful commentary on human nature and society, encapsulated here in an electrifying live setting.
