Pearl Jam are opening the vault: for Ten Club members only, the first-ever official videos from their legendary Easy Street performance have just been released.
As the band gets ready to kick off the next leg of the Dark Matter Tour, they’ve surprised fans with a very special gift: two never-before-seen videos from one of the most legendary shows of their career.
Right next to this article, you can check out the new official 2025 tour shirt, now available at pearljam.com — a design by Jeff Ament, inspired by the song React, Respond and created especially for the upcoming North American dates.
Now, let’s head back to that legendary night…
Twenty years ago, in April 2005, Pearl Jam shocked fans with a surprise in-store performance at the historic Easy Street Records in West Seattle, thrown to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Coalition of Independent Music Stores (CIMS). It was an intimate, electrifying event — one that’s still remembered as one of the purest, most powerful moments in the band’s history.
Until now, the only official release from that night was Pearl Jam: Live at Easy Street, a CD-only EP dropped in 2006 featuring seven tracks captured from the show — raw, high-energy performances recorded in an impossibly small space. In 2019, the EP was reissued on vinyl for Record Store Day, fueling the legend even further.
Now, for the first time ever, two exclusive videos from that iconic night have surfaced: The New World (featuring John Doe of X) and Save You — two performances that capture all the energy and magic of that once-in-a-lifetime set. The videos are available exclusively to Ten Club members.
It’s a priceless gift for the band’s most loyal fans — and maybe a hint at something bigger on the way. Here’s hoping this is just the beginning, and that soon the full Easy Street performance will finally see the light of day, not just in audio, but in full video too.
After twenty years, the dream of reliving that historic night in its entirety feels closer than ever.
