Overview edit

The box set debuted at number 36 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart with about 19,000 copies sold in its first week.[3] As of April 2008, Live at the Gorge 05/06 has sold around 30,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.

The band's show of September 1, 2005 took place at the beginning of its fall 2005 North American tour, while the two July 2006 shows concluded the second North American leg of the band's 2006 tour. Between the three concerts there were sixty-nine individual songs performed. The band's cover of Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down" that was performed at the concert of September 1, 2005 was not originally released on the official bootleg for that show due to a DAT error. The track is present on this release. A mistake on the retail version of the packaging lists the show of September 1, 2005 as September 5, 2005.

Allmusic staff writer Jason Birchmeier gave the box set three and a half out of five stars. He said "it's a great package of shows that fans will want to hear, especially anyone who missed Pearl Jam on their sold-out summer 2006 tour."[1]
