My mom worships the ground Eddie Vedder walks on, so I was taught at a very young age to do the same. We have all of the albums, and some we have more than one copy of. Like Ten. We have Ten on vinyl, cassette, and CD. Because we're scary like that.

I saw them in concert this summer. They are great live. Very great band. They played a great Chicago show since eddie is originally from this area. The crowd was great! Really into it!

I like all their old stuff. I haven't listened to them in a while. All throughout college they were really popular. I only have Ten, Go, and the album after that. My brother was a big fan and had bootlegs before on tape.

Guitarist is great!! Checkout their website if you haven't already. They post like mad their.

Pearl Jam is my first true musical love.

You know how you have crushes in elementary school and then some time in high school you have your first love? As time goes by the love seems trite and trivial, but it's still your first love. That's Pearl Jam to me. That's the first band I was ever gung-ho, all out for. That's the first band I ever saw more than once on the same tour. That's the first band for whom I ever started collectioning singles, bootlegs, etc.

To this date it's the only band for whom I've done this. And there probably won't be another. I've never thought as much about a girl as I did that first love, but that doesn't mean it was healthy :-)

I still listen to PJ a ton, though.

I just bought the double album Lost Dogs, which is 30 b-sides, and this band it amazing. I had heard of them before, and heard one of their songs, and so yesterday, I was out, and I saw this cd, and I bought it not knowing what to expect, but man, these B-sides and rarities are 1st rate.

My faovrites are........Yello Ledbetter, Footsteps, and Hard To Imagine.

rf_ucsd

12-12-2003, 05:24 AM

I'm a huge Pearl Jam fan. One summer I toko vacation from work and toured with them for nine straight shows. I love the band and think they are incredibly underrated int he grand scheme of things.

I can understand somebody saying they prefer Creed, but as a Pearl Jam fan it kind of hurts me. I listen to Creed and hear dumb downed Pearl Jam: Pearl Jam's music emulated in tone and style without the sustance, the goal being money. I see and band that doesn't seem to be professional musicians but professional entertainers. There's nothing wrong with that, nor is there anything wrong with making "dumbed down" music.

It just hurts my feelings, I guess. I realize I may have been rude here but I'm sorry. Yeah, I should delete the above, but I won't and just beg your forgiveness for being a jerk.

CityandColour

12-12-2003, 07:03 AM

Everyone has a right to listen to what they like and when I listen to Creed, and hear hardcore music, with some good lyrics, inspite of Scott Stapp sounding like Eddie Vedder. I really don't care considering I'm not a PJ fan. I think pretty much the same thing about PJ that most people think about Creed, I think there dull, but that's justmy opinion.

Jacob

14-12-2003, 05:24 AM

Vitalogy is my favorite cd by Pearl Jam, and I'm putting my foot down on that! I love the sound on Vitalogy. And some of the songs are so weird, they just add to the creepy atmosphere of the cd.

Last Exit is awesome.

rf_ucsd

14-12-2003, 05:26 AM

Vitalogy is awesome, Jacob! Good to see another Pearl Jam fan (go figure, in a Pearl Jam thread?!?!?).

The more I listen to Riot Act the more I love it. And their new DVD?!?! It's great! Better than Coldplay's, IMO. "Love Boat Captain" is SUCH a great song.

OK, I'm going emo :P

Jacob

14-12-2003, 05:42 AM

hahah. Oh man, Vitalogy is so creepy and weird, that's why I love it!

Corduroy, Nothingman, and Last Exit are really good. And I by the sound of it, I think Last Exit would be an awesome song to play live.

It's too bad you're a little young to remember the hay-day of Pearl Jam, Jacob. Everybody seems to define them in terms of these semi-copy cat bands that have followed. *sigh*

Jacob

14-12-2003, 05:46 AM

and....mycoldplayerisbroke, I agree, Pearl Jam rule grunge.

They are the only band from the grunge era that is still together, and they are the grunge band that had the right amount of substance in their musc.

Jacob

14-12-2003, 05:48 AM

yea. Too bad I was too young to remember. I bet these cds would have sounded even better when they were first released.

mycdplayerisbroke

oh mycoldplayerisbroke
that wouldve been a decent name
get it everyone?

and i dont know what the big fuss about nirvana is?
i mean they have maybe 2 decents songs ill listen to half way but thats it

rf_ucsd

14-12-2003, 05:49 AM

When they were first released it was kind of weird ... of course, I loved them immediately, but "Alive" seemed to be getting as much publicity because of Eddie's stage/tower dive as the music itself.

mycdplayerisbroke

14-12-2003, 05:51 AM

the only cd i have of them is 'ten'
i wanted to get yield
or the one with the goat on the front

Jacob

14-12-2003, 05:54 AM

haha.

I heard the live DVD is pretty awesome from a lot of people. Guess I should get it!

And I don't know why, but Ten is not my favorite by them, Vitalogy is more original and experimental sounding. I mean, you can't tell me Bugs is not the creepiest song you've ever heard.

rf_ucsd

14-12-2003, 05:56 AM

Bugs is kind of weird.

Ten is probably my least favorite album ... actually, Yield is my least favorite album, then Ten. In light of their more recent stuff, Ten sounds melodramatic and immature. But I still think it's very good.

Jacob

14-12-2003, 06:00 AM

yea. I heard Yield is there album that comes closest to being bad.

The new song is good, Man Of The Hour

Well, that's my opinion. Get over it.

Why are you even bothering to post that in a Pearl Jam thread? I am over it, and now I'm making light of it. See how over it I am? Don't worry about posting flippancies like that unless you wish to get responses like these, because telling somebody to "get over it," ESPECIALLY when you're somebody proporting the virtues of Creed in a Pearl Jam thread seems like a ill-advised use of your time.

Jacob

25-06-2004, 06:45 PM

This band is so awesome, they get better and better with each cd, their last one is sort of off but, it's still good. These guys have a new sound with each album, I think they'll be on tour next year for sure, and I'm going to see them if it means waiting outside ticketmaster for hours before it opens. Pearl Jam put on too good a show to pass up.

Alessa

25-06-2004, 07:09 PM

But i've lost the expectations to see the band here in brazil.... i guess they never will come.... :cry:

Annd Iii hi, whooo hi Im so alive, so alive baby so alliiiiiive

And thats the only song I know!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Uh, no I kid. I've seen them live and it was awesome, certainly. Riot Act was great for like the first week and now its so terribly average, they are in a great danger of becoming so average, instead of beautifully amazing.

They are wonderful musicians, they record their albums with very little production work and with one take. So obviously this makes for a great live performance.

Jacob

26-06-2004, 03:26 AM

same here man. I'm there for sure next time they're in Toronto.

Yea I agree, Riot Act wasn't that good, one of my favorites is on that cd though, Love Boat Captain. All their cds sound so different and really stand out in different ways. I think the best album they put out is Binaural, a lot of people would say no to this, but I honestly think this is they're best, it certainly has the best production on it. And Light Years is one of my faves. My favorite Pearl Jam song is from No Code though, Off He Goes.

i wonder why there's no pearl jam thread in this forum ... don't you like them?!

i gotta admit that i only have the famous 'Ten' record and i think it is amazing!

i only new 'Jeremy' but then i bought the album and it is filled with awesome songs like 'Black', 'Alive', 'Garden', 'Why Go', 'Porch', ...

the live version of 'Alive' is even better!

i like eddie vedder's voice. it's so raspy and just good! ;)

so if you want a good piece of music just go out and buy [or download] 'Ten' by Pearl Jam! You won't regret it!

i could say the same about your apparent admiration for the record ;)

Either way, anybody who hasn't seen Pearl Jam live should do so on their next tour.

And to answer the question placed by busybeeburns... My favorite version of Yellow Ledbetter is without a doubt from the Boston show on 8/29/00. Mainly because I was there :D

heineken

29-12-2005, 05:24 AM

man.. every pearl jam fan thaht i know loved this record... great sounds, great sounds, great lyrics..
not being a very sucessful album on charts doens't mean a shit about the quality of it.. and even more these days talking about pearl jam.. you know..
i would put it as one of best pearl jam albuns and it's hard to do, because they don'tt have bad albums

Merkaba82

29-12-2005, 05:34 AM

one: I never said I was a "fan" whatsoever. I wouldn't even put then in my top 20 bands.

two: never once was the success of the album on the charts mentioned nor even considered by me. You're the one who brought that up, my friend.

three: whether or not a particular band has bad albums is merely an opnion. And it just so happens that my opinion, after purchasing this record and listening to it extensively, is that is is weak.

I don't see how sexual orientation has any relevance whatsoever in this thread.

Unless that was just your idea of "clever" response. If so, I feel badly for you.

Rather than asking me what it is I don't find appealing about Riot Act you're just quick to start with the insinuations. Tis a shame. So much for discussion...

I freakin luv pearl jam. That link kicks soooo much ass. I live in dallas and my bros went the high school that jeremy (like the song) went to. except he shot himself in 1990 and they graduated a couple years ago so they werent there wen it happened but every kid at that school no's about it from the song. hey i no i'm bein a bitch since we got so many good bootlegs. but does anyone have anymore? and p.s NOTHINGMAN is the best song

Pearl Jam, Franz Ferdinand and Muse are announced as the headline acts for the Reading and Leeds Festivals as tickets go on sale for the twin events.
The Kaiser Chiefs, Arctic Monkeys, The Futureheads and The Streets will also play on the main stages.

The bands will perform at both Richfield Avenue, Reading, and Bramham Park, near Wetherby, on the weekend of 25-27 August.

Other acts lined up include Belle and Sebastian, Feeder and Placebo.

More than 100,000 people are expected to flood to the festivals, paying up to £135 for a weekend pass.

Although the festivals always sell out well in advance, they have taken on greater significance this summer because there is no Glastonbury Festival this year.

Other bands to play at Reading and Leeds include My Chemical Romance, The Rakes, Dirty Pretty Things and The Subways.

US rock band Pearl Jam, fronted by Eddie Vedder, were playing at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark in 2000 when a crowd surge resulted in eight fans being trampled to death.

The band immediately cancelled the remaining dates of their European tour because they were so devastated by the tragedy, and criticised organisation at the festival, saying the deaths could have been avoided.

I love Pearl Jam, saw the once before in 2003, and seeing them again in November. The new album I think is very good, with favs at the moment being Life Wasted and Come Back.

Good thread everyone!

Eddie Vedder's voice is amazing...how could you not love him!

01-08-2006, 12:20 PM

Yeah, his voice is *thinking* well, somewhere in the best ones.

PJ song for today: Nothingman

01-08-2006, 12:24 PM

Yeah I was never a fan until this year. My brother in law kept raving on about them so I decided to have a listen and I loved it!

vertigo caz

11-08-2006, 05:07 PM

Bump :D ...................Been listening to Pearl Jam all day..cant wait too see them again in November!! The thing that I love about Pearl Jam is that they constantly change their set list, so you never know what they are going to play that night. Awesome band!

Im going to see them for the fourth time in a few weeks. There must be more fans than that. Surely?

2 months till I see pearl jam in concert!!!! eddie is a legend

Jacob

15-09-2006, 03:03 PM

Oh man, thank God the Pearl Jam threads are back on top!

Pearl Jam have been my favorite band for a long long time. I've seen them twice now. The tour opener on May 9th was the best I've been to out of the two. Although the other time was insane back in September, because Eddie brought out Bono to do vocals with him on Rockin' In The Free World.

And when I saw U2 two days earlier, Bono brought out Eddie Vedder to do vocals with him for Old Man River. I'd say besides meeting Chris Cornell, that's gotta be my biggest rock'n'roll moment.

My favorite album by them is Binaural, Yield is the least favorite.

Jacob

15-09-2006, 03:05 PM

I think the audience's roar drowned out the band here.

vertigo caz

15-09-2006, 03:07 PM

Awesome!! I love Pearl Jam fans!!! This will be my 2nd time seeing them this November...cant wait.....and I have to say Jacob you are one lucky person!!!! That is so good you saw bono at pearl jams's concert AND eddie at U2's...amazing!

Jacob

15-09-2006, 03:20 PM

haha thanks!
The best part was when Eddie was just on his guitar after playing Love Boat Captain, and then he starts playing A Sort Of Homecoming and singing. And that's my favorite U2 song, so my mind was blown.

Seeing them in November eh? That concert is gonna be awesome, trust me. Make sure to pick up a tour shirt too, with the Avacado on it. hahha.

Pearl Jam song of the day?....... Brain of J!

vertigo caz

15-09-2006, 03:25 PM

yes gonna get one of those tour shirts!....non-pearl jam fans will be like wtf are you wearing?! haha.....I love the artwork, photography and general layout of Pearl Jam albums. The cover for the new album looks so simple with the avacado, then you open it up and get a suprise lol...

Jacob

15-09-2006, 05:04 PM

I KNOW EH!?? First time I opened up the cd package and took out the cd to put into my walkman, and looked at the artwork I was like...."what the hell?"

I still haven't figured out the significance of the Avacado on the cover. haha.

I like the artwork for Binaural best. And I also like the cd best too

16-09-2006, 06:42 PM

I love the album ten! :D

Wally

17-09-2006, 09:35 PM

Ten is definately their best album. So many good songs.

Jacob

18-09-2006, 05:27 AM

Ahh well, after listening to all their albums, I'd say that while Ten is their best, Binaural would be my favorite, everyone usually hates that one, but I dunno, I really think it's very under-appreciated. It's by far their most focused and fascinating cd. And like the artwork perfectly describes the music, and how spacey it is. Light Years and Parting Ways are two of Pearl Jam's best songs.

Jacob

18-09-2006, 01:39 PM

hahah Pearl Jam song for today for me is Life Wasted!

Jacob

18-09-2006, 07:21 PM

I'm loving your avator!

vertigo caz

19-09-2006, 06:04 AM

Thanks! Good work on yours too! I agree with you on binaural being a great album, not sure if its my fav, but i do think it is underrated...My fav from that album at the moment is Light Years

"we were but stones, your light made us stars"

Jacob

19-09-2006, 12:50 PM

Damn right yo. Yesterday I convinced my manager to let me play the new Pearl Jam cd on the speakers at work, and we ended up selling a copy of the cd!

vertigo caz

19-09-2006, 12:56 PM

Nice work!! The world could do with a few more fans lol

Jacob

19-09-2006, 01:05 PM

yea eh? It was awesome. Blasting Comatose and Severed Hand at work. It made the night go by so muchhhhh more faster.

vertigo caz

19-09-2006, 01:09 PM

haha i bet, I'm listening to severed hand at the moment lol! Id love to play Pearl Jam at work, but I dont think it would go down too well, especially since I work at a hospital lol!!! Im sure it would make the patients feel better right? How do you like the new album? it seems many fans arent that receptive to it, but i love it..

Wally

19-09-2006, 05:10 PM

Pearl Jam are my absolute favourite band

Jacob

19-09-2006, 09:22 PM

The new Pearl Jam cd is awesome. Some fans think Pearl Jam are selling out and going commercial I guess. The way I see it is that if the band wants to rock out, then they should by all means do it. Life Wasted is like my theme song. haha.

In fact, I'd say the new one, Binaural and Vitalogy are my three favorites of theirs.

vertigo caz

24-09-2006, 04:36 PM

random pearl jam moment: its about 1.30am and a short Pearl Jam special came on TV, was about 10mins long, was them talking about the new album and that, I love hearing eddie speak lol..anyway this will also get Pearl Jam back on page 1

Jacob

24-09-2006, 05:45 PM

excellent work!

Random Pearl Jam moment of the weekend. I got my buddy at work to listen to the new cd and he says it ain't bad. He was heavily against Eddie and crew before.

And I just played Long Road on guitar.

vertigo caz

24-09-2006, 06:01 PM

yes I've been trying to get a friend into them as well, convinced them to at least buy their best of album as it was on sale. Nice you play guitar? thats cool i wish i could

Jacob

24-09-2006, 06:05 PM

yea, but I don't play it enough to be good at it.
If I had the time to play it more, then I'd probably be really good at it.

Everyone I told to buy the album loves it man.

vertigo caz

24-09-2006, 06:08 PM

well good work!!! well most of my friends are girls, so Pearl Jam aint really their thing, but its their loss. Good work on getting people into Pearl Jam, you're doing your friends a great service lol!

Jacob

24-09-2006, 06:16 PM

haha indeed. Now I gotta try getting people into Soundgarden. That's probably the hardest band to get people into

vertigo caz

24-09-2006, 06:19 PM

Don't really know much of their stuff, besides Black Hole Sun of course...Chris Cornell has a killer voice though! he has cool eyes as well lol

Jacob

24-09-2006, 07:20 PM

Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder are good buddies. Members of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam got together before they became famous and made a cd under the name Temple Of The Dog, it's really good stuff. And on this one song Hunger Strike, Eddie and Chris both do vocals. It's awesome.

Soundgarden are really hard to get into, but they're like a darker somewhat twisted Pearl Jam.

vertigo caz

24-09-2006, 07:28 PM

ok just listened to hunger strike, its awesome!! I knew of Temple of the Dog before, but never listened to the cd they made, thanks for bringing that up!!

vertigo caz

08-10-2006, 05:31 PM

wow thats a really hard question!!! god...hmm well today my fav albums would be Vs. or Binaural....fav song totally not possible for me to pick one..Black is a classic, Nothingman, Yellow Ledbetter, Light Years, Hail Hail, Elderly woman behind the counter in a small town.......too hard those questions!

I'm really enjoying their new album at the moment as well, favs from that album at the moment are severed hand, life wasted and come back...great album!

EddieStipe

08-10-2006, 05:48 PM

Yeah I love that album as a whole. I never pick any of the songs from it though when I'm picking my fav PJ songs overall.

My fav album is Ten(the first one I loved). I love Versus, Vitalogy, Yield and No Code as well. There all great!:D

My fav songs are, Alive, Leash, Yellow Ledbetter, Elderly Woman and State of Love and Trust.

vertigo caz

08-10-2006, 05:50 PM

so have you ever seen them in concert before? I saw them once before in 2003

EddieStipe

08-10-2006, 06:04 PM

Nah never seen them live. The last time they were here(before this year) was 1998 and I wasn't really into them then. That's why I want them to come back for next year!:)

iriden

08-10-2006, 09:59 PM

I'm from Dublin;)

Yeah I don't know whether it's true or not. Hope it is though. Can't wait another 8 years for them to come back.

Rob
Some of my friends who went to see them here in Italy told me the same, so Eddie should be aware they will be waiting for him next year :lol:

Jacob

09-10-2006, 05:22 AM

Excellent, another PJ fan!

Fave album has to be Binaural or Vitalogy for me. Binaural is probably the favorite, I dunno, I know it ain't their best, but to me it's a gold-mine of hidden gems.

Favorite song (at the moment at least) has to be Long Road or Light Years.

Jacob

14-10-2006, 03:58 PM

Yea, I started off with new stuff. LIke the first cd of theirs I purchased was because I was bored and needed some risk in my life. haha. I bought Lost Dogs, and got hooked. So like, I started out with the B-sides, and then moved into the new stuff, and then back to the old stuff. It's a really odd way to start, I know.

vertigo caz

14-10-2006, 04:01 PM

wow the first album you bought was Lost Dogs....thats really rare!!! and you may have unknowingly paid me back for the soundgarden shirt pic....that pic with mike and edge...2 of my fav guitarists of all time together...awesome

hahah great! Yea and the singer of Sleater-Kinney in there too. They are one awesome punk band. That was a Toronto pic there.

Jacob

14-10-2006, 08:18 PM

Yea, Lost Dogs is where I got started. I heard Hard To Imagine and I was like... "hmmmm, I wonder where to go to next with these guys?" It's so funny thinkin back on me in high school though. Because I used to be a big Nirvana fan, I'd be like "Pearl Jam? Who the hell are they? They probably suck!" Now here I am in uni, and it's the other way around.

vertigo caz

15-10-2006, 04:48 AM

Yeah coz I've always been a fan of Pearl Jam, I was never able to really get into Nirvana...not to say I dont like their music, just that I don't know much of it, and from what I've heard it's not as good as what Pearl Jam produces.....I know A LOT of people disagree with that!! So what you studying at uni?

Jacob

15-10-2006, 01:32 PM

I'm majoring in film theory and stuff like that. Don't really know what I wanna do at all though. I'm one of those uni students. What about you?

I'm in second year too. haha thanks. This post is going to ruin it. But right before I post this. This thread will have had 111 posts and 777 views!

But yea, the way I see it, things can only get better from here. I mean I think at this age, the quarter-life crisis time, you go through a massive amount of anxiety now that like u realize ur an adult, and I dunno, eventually you get into the swing of things and you figure out where you wanna go. That's just what I think. I might be generalizing, if so, I apologize in advance haha.

No I totally get what you're saying....I'm just hoping I get past my quater-life crisis sooner rather than later...but I'm probably not stressing about it as much as I should be...but I have the attitude, I'm only 19..I have plenty of time to figure out what I want to with the rest of my life...and if I'm in the wrong course, its not a big deal..I can always come back to uni (not really keen on doing that), but if its for soemthing i really wanna do..I'll just do it. Anyway film studies sounds interesting......maybe later on down the track you could go into doing something like...hmmm directing future pearl jam video clips! If that ever happens you gotta hook me up, I wanna meet the guys!
