PEARL JAM


Guest Olivavu

Recommended Posts

At the astoria gig they didn't play Alive, and ended as they usually do on Yellow Ledbetter. When they left stage Eddie was begging to some guy offstage for 1 more song and came back for Alive, it was definitely a real encore and not planned at all.

just wanna say mate, thankyou so much for helping me get into pearl jam. i wasnt that familiar with them when they confirmed for reading, and now they are one of my ave bands, (my 13th fave to be presice) (i list them) (im sad). your sheer passion and confidence in the fact that pearl jam is the meaning of life led me to buy 'ten' 'vs' and 'riot act'. dissadent is one of my fav songs of all time, i really hope they play it at reading, should i go for 'no code' next?

In which country? In the States it's their most successful out of everything post-Vitalogy. I got in to them shortly after Yield and always thought it was their 'big commercial return', much like the new self-titled situation. I know for sure that Yield sold comfortably more in the states than Riot Act, Binaural and No Code. In fact I think it's 2x platinum.

It is my personal favourite also. Love Yield to bits. Do The Evolution is one of my favourite all-time hard rock tracks, up there with the likes of Baba O Riley and Trampled Underfoot. Man, that song gets me going and what a video. What a riff, the solo....phenomenal. Some other giants on that album, such as Given to Fly and Wishlist, but I think the MFC > Low Light > In Hiding triumvirate, which I can't stop going on about, is probably the thing I like most about this band. Those three songs together > the world.

So I've finally got round to listening to some Pearl Jam (Ollie made me 3 mix CD's of them) and I have to say so far so good!! I didn't think they would be my cuppa to be honest, but I'm liking it! :blink:

Good job I'm liking them, seeing as though I'm seeing them twice this year! ;)

    • I too am always a bit blurred on what/who constitutes a legend slot but would Sting fit that bill?  Those there said his IoW slot was v good and he has enough of a songbook imo for a Sun afternoon if he uses the Police's 1st 2 albums for a fair chunk of it      
    • Thing is, I'd have said that as well.   But then she inexplicably ended up on the Wilderness lineup and that changes everything. I reckon if that goes well, which it will, then she's very much in the picture.
    • This has probably been discussed a hundred times already on efests but what constitutes a legend? I know some of it is my age but I don't see eurithmics or Duran Duran as legend status. Neil young or nils lofgren then yes and neither of them have overly troubled the charts. Duran Duran and indeed the eurithmics I would put in the 80s category and whilst it would be ok (human league at isle of wight we're fabulous) they just arent in my mind legend status.  Zombies played same festival- i would take that. 
    • friendly tonight delayed , pitch draining pretty quick to be fair .... not sure it bodes well for other games with potential fixture backlog
