Eighteen shows from the tour were chosen by the band as "Ape/Man" shows, which, according to bassist Jeff Ament, were shows the band found "really exciting." With the release of these official bootlegs, Pearl Jam would set a record for most albums to debut in the Billboard 200 at the same time. The Seattle show was released as a triple-disc set, and was the highest-charting of the series, peaking at number 98 on the Billboard 200, and was called an "essential live document" by Allmusic. Every show was released in a cardboard sleeve containing two CDs, with the exception of the 72nd and final show on the tour, Novemat KeyArena in Seattle, Washington. 72 of the "bootlegs" were released to stores in three waves in late 2000 and early 2001, with the 25 European bootlegs coming first. Pearl Jam's official bootleg program was begun for the band's 2000 Binaural Tour. The official bootlegs are a complete record of almost every show the band plays, excluding club "warm-up" dates. The band has sold more than 13.5 million copies of shows since launching the bootleg series in 2000. The band had been open in the past about allowing fans to make amateur recordings, and these "official bootlegs" were an attempt to provide a more affordable and better quality product for fans.

Pearl Jam noted the desire of fans to own a copy of the shows they attended and the popularity of bootleg recordings. The Pearl Jam "official" bootlegs are a large, continually growing series of live albums by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam.
