sounds good, where will the meet up be?

yep this is good stuff...have this whole show on VHS (back in the day used to pay 30 bucks for these VHS shows...always normal crap vid but audio was normally decent...good stuff scrimetime

please....saw it 6 months ago....creep that guy is

funny was looking at old posts, this photo was for Rolling Stone interview, but this goon also knows that it was shot and band was interviewed at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, MI...I was there of course tenth row.(thanks Ten Club) Oh yea, super goon also knows that this particular shot was taken right before the bands' first encore....Hence the open bottle of wine and notebook, and Matt's sticks on standby. Yoou have been informed...HA!

Don't know exactly, again it is simply a sentence in PJ20, but they basically just took a break. Understandably i guess, due to old singer dying. But i think Jeff was deflated with music, and Stone wasn't. He was still writing and maybe Jeff had no interest??? Dunno. But yes you do need to see it, although i find myself watching it with certain people and the pause button comes into play because a sentence really needs to be a paragraph explanation....also there is a bad ass PJ20 hardcover book that really should accompany the movie....crazy thorough, exact dates, and a lot of direct quotes from movie are in there along with further explanation....hence the paragraph needed....that cutting room floor that Mr. Crowe had to deal with must have been overwhelming....again solid doc PJ20 is, BUT as a huge fan there are too many holes....the book fills a lot of this in but still....once again never satisfied is Kevin. Rambling again I am, but hell if you're gonna do the movie...cover it all.

Well, it was biblical for some....HA! But pretty intense indeed...Well in PJ20 they hash on it a tad, but of course there is more to the story then the doc tells...Jeff after Andy (singer of MLB) died, pretty much put down his bass....Stone says he never quit playing or writing, what he was writing was indeed the pearl jam TEN Demos. McCready and Stone attended high school together and apparently would trade "rock photos" to one another. So, Stone is at a party and McCready is there playing Stevie Ray Vaughn song in the corner, Stone asked him to jam and they set up shop in Stone's parents attic.....Stone really did not want Jeff to jam with them, actually Said Fuck Jeff Ament, and (in PJ20) mike said no thats your guy. You gotta have Jeff....the demo was cut with Matt Cameron (soundgarden, PJ) on drums, this came to Vedder via Jack Irons, now he met Jack because he volunteered to roadie at a show for Joe Strummer....Jack was there, also lived near Vedder in San Diego...they played hoops from time to time....wow i am typing a lot more than i thought....the obsessed, we never shut up. Jack was in Chili Peppers and gave the demo to Vedder. Rewind, Dont forget Jeff and Stone were in Green River in 1984 with Mark Arm and Steve Turner from Mudhoney, this all before Love Bone. OK...done with the past. After Yield of course their have been some Jems, obviously I am bias but I truly believe fan or not every record has a few cuts that cant be ignored. Their last album "Backspacer" (thats what the key was called on old typewriters...yes it had an "R") is a beauty....at least the first 7 songs, I doubt you would skip one...It's fast, raw, and has a sound of way too many guitars that somehow works.....I will post a few. But back to after Yield, 6th release was Binaural, Riot Act, Pearl Jam, then Backspacer....I would say out of these Riot Act is the fan album, it's a tough listen at times and still to this day probably my last pick...but still two songs from that album are "I am Mine" and "Thumbing my Way" Both Vedder written, no surprises or inventive technique....just kinda picture the tape player rolling as those tunes were worked out....here they are.

and St Louis is indeed the windy city....funny, god bless screwing with humans.

very cool, made me laugh quite a few times....End of the innocence...classic
