2/23/03 – Perth, Australia is a two-disc live album by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam. It was released to retail stores on June 10, 2003.

Overview[edit]

The album was recorded live at the Burswood Dome in Perth, Western Australia on February 23, 2003. It was the only official bootleg that Pearl Jam released in stores from the Australian leg of its Riot Act Tour, and it was one of six official bootlegs released overall to retail stores. Allmusic gave it two out of a possible five stars. Allmusic staff writer Jason Birchmeier said, "Of the couple live recordings that Pearl Jam released to retail outlets in 2003, the final show of the band's Australian tour...is probably the least interesting."[1] A video recording of "Throw Your Arms Around Me" from this show appears as a bonus feature on the band's Live at the Garden DVD.
