Live Concert Audio to be Given Away as An Added Bonus with CD or Itunes Purchase

Pearl Jam have announced that fans who purchase their eagerly anticipated new studio album ‘Backspacer’ (released Sept 21st) on CD or from ITunes will be able to download the audio from their choice of two entire Pearl Jam concerts from a selection o£11 US shows.

The gigs available for download with the purchase of ‘Backspacer’ are Halifax (22/09/05), Philadelphia (03/10/05), Santiago (21/11/05), Chicago (17/05/06), Grand Rapids (19/05/06), Camden (28/05/06), E Rutherford (06/03/06), San Francisco (16/07/06), New York (25/06/06), Hartford (27/06/08) and Mansfield (28/06/08).

The band will be able to update the content at any time – meaning fans may have access to more bonus features in the future.
