Just seems like they got there at the last minute, didn't bother to practice and played the songs on acoustic guitars like they would electrically and that was all. Don't get the impression they tried to do something different with them.
Pearl Jam seems to be one of those bands that does things one way and after that one way is set, they keep doing it over and over. This obviously explains the 7 carbon copies that came out in succession of Ten.

A Tool unplugged show would be orgasmic, come to think of it, they seem like the band that Unplugged was made for. There was probably a request sent in for Tool but they turned it down, hopefully they just do one on their own.
