Pearl Jam

In June 2018, when Pearl Jam played "Down" at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam, they were right in the middle of a touring cycle to promote their latest album, *Gigaton*, which had just been released earlier that year, in March. This album marked a significant return to the studio for the band after a lengthy hiatus, and it displayed their incredible ability to evolve while staying true to their roots. Interestingly, *Gigaton* touches on themes of climate change and personal introspection, which align with the band's long-standing commitment to activism. The Amsterdam show was part of their extensive global tour, and the energy in that venue was electric – a testament to the band's enduring connection with their fan base. Each performance, especially tracks like "Down," captures a blend of nostalgia and the band’s relentless drive, proving why they remain a powerhouse in the rock scene after all these years.
