Pearl Jam made a triumphant return to the stage in 2023, delivering an electrifying performance at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota. The iconic rock band delighted fans with a 24-song setlist that included some unexpected surprises.
Unforgettable Musical Moments
In a night filled with nostalgia and excitement, Pearl Jam revisited some lesser-known tracks from their extensive catalog. Notably, they dusted off “Insignificance” from their album “Binaural,” a song that hadn’t graced their live performances since 2016. Fans were also treated to a rare rendition of “Love Boat Captain” from “Riot Act,” making only its second appearance in the last five years.
The surprises didn’t end there. The band opened the show with “Indifference,” a track from “Vs.,” marking the first time it had kicked off a Pearl Jam concert since 1994. They also delved into the depths of “No Code,” performing deep cuts like “I’m Open” and “Sometimes,” adding a layer of complexity to their already diverse setlist.
A Memorable Closing Act
As the night drew to a close, Eddie Vedder, the band’s frontman, took center stage to deliver a heartfelt cover of Tom Petty’s “Wildflowers.” This poignant solo performance was a touching moment that resonated with the audience. The rest of the band then joined Vedder for a rousing encore featuring crowd favorites like “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town,” “Go,” “Crazy Mary” (a Victoria Williams cover), “Alive,” and “Yellow Ledbetter.”
