7/9/03 – New York, New York is a two-disc live album by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam. It was released to retail stores on September 16, 2003.

Overview

The album was recorded live in New York City at Madison Square Garden on July 9, 2003. It is one of three official bootlegs that Pearl Jam released in stores from the second leg of its North American Riot Act Tour, and it was one of six official bootlegs released overall to retail stores. Allmusic gave it four out of a possible five stars. Allmusic staff writer James Christopher Monger said, "Pearl Jam's second night in New York City features a lean 32-song set that more than makes up for the previous evening's mediocrity."^[1] It is also available packaged as a boxed set with the previous night, 7/8/03, also at Madison Square Garden.
