Pearl Jam

In the summer of 2009, Pearl Jam was riding the wave of their freshly released album, *Backspacer*, which had hit the shelves just a few days earlier on September 20. This album marked a significant milestone as it was their first collaboration with producer Brendan O'Brien since *Yield* in 1998. The performance on August 28, 2009, at the Outside Lands Music Festival showcased the band diving into some daring new material, including the energetic track “Got Some.” It's interesting to note that this song's vibrant debut had also happened just earlier that year on Conan O’Brien’s first episode of *The Tonight Show,* making it a hot topic among fans. The Outside Lands performance not only highlighted Pearl Jam's evolution by hitting fresh notes with *Backspacer*, but also reminded audiences just how electrifying they could be live, creating an experience that transcended the studio atmosphere. What a moment it must’ve been for those lucky enough to catch it!
