Pearl Jam Dark Matter Tour Setlist — Every Show
The Dark Matter World Tour launched in May 2024 alongside Pearl Jam's twelfth studio album. What makes a Pearl Jam setlist unlike any other: they've never played the same setlist twice in their career. Across 17 shows tracked here — Australia, New Zealand, and North America — they drew on 108 different songs from every era of their catalogue, mixed with new material from Dark Matter.
Even Flow and Alive were constants at every single show. Everything else was up for grabs every night — fan favourites, deep cuts from Ten through Dark Matter, and rare songs that might surface once and vanish for years. Your show had a setlist no other crowd ever heard.
