By Rob Evans LiveDaily Editor

Pearl Jam [ tickets ]'s long-promised rarities and b-sides album will finally make its way to stores on Nov. 11, along with a two-disc DVD of the Seattle band's July 8 concert at New York's Madison Square Garden.

The two-disc rarities album--which is titled "Lost Dogs" and will have a suggested retail price of $19.99--will include 31 tracks culled from b-sides, benefit albums and soundtracks, according to Epic Records. None of the tracks has previously appeared on a Pearl Jam studio album.

The DVD, dubbed "Pearl Jam Live at the Garden," was filmed by Pearl Jam crewmembers Liz Burns, Steve Gordon, Kevin Shuss and Brandon Vedder, and will carry a suggested retail price of $19.98.

Among the performance highlights on the DVD are Ben Harper's appearances on "Daughter" and "Indifference," The Buzzcocks' Tony Barber on "Sonic Reducer" and The Buzzcocks' Steve Diggle on "Baba O'Riley."

The performance runs for two hours and 40 minutes, and the DVD also features 30 minutes of bonus features, including a solo performance of "Dead Man" by Ed Vedder and a performance of "Throw Your Arms Around Me" in Perth, Australia with Mark Seymour, of Hunters and Collectors. It also includes a compilation of clips from a number of the band's performances of its controversial song "Bushleaguer" on the 2003 Riot Act tour.

In other Pearl Jam news, the group is set to perform an acoustic concert on Oct. 22 to benefit Seattle-based YouthCare's Orion Center. Tickets for the show, which takes place at Seattle's Benaroya Hall, go on sale on Friday (10/3) at 11 a.m. Pacific Time.

Pearl Jam will also perform at Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit, set for Oct. 25 and 26 at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, CA.
