I can never get past Eddie Vedder's voice. It grates on my nerves.

Good movie, though.

I haven't seen it... I've read the book though.

It was one of those rare movies that actually complemented the book. It's worth a look.

i totally agree. i think the movie was worthless without the book though.

and i actually liked eddie vedder's songs. i need to pick up that s/t one of these days.

I liked the book so much that I refuse to see the movie knowing that it could not make my experience any better.

This should have gone in the thread above. I have proverbially soiled myself.

weird billing

I'm all for Ted getting as much publicity as he can, but this is a weird combination. I mostly say that because Ted is incredible, and Pearl Jam were a mediocre band even in their prime and now are just embarrassing.

Pearl Jam has a rep for taking out some very good/cool indie acts.

I pretty much hate all that gravy-mouthed '90s alternative crap (even when it was happening) but I've always loved Pearl Jam. They're one of the last bands I want to see before I die. Bruce Springsteen is one of the others, but that shit is way too expensive.

Hardly. Maybe the music doesn't match perfectly, but as far as political ideologies go, they are pretty similar to one another.

Why would you want to go see two/three/four bands that sound exactly the same anyways?

I'm going to ry and get to both MSG shows. it's going to be really hard.

no!!!! why do actual artists with actual integrity still think that eddie vedder is cool? sleater-kinney made the same fucking mistake. vedder tried and failed at being cool a decade ago. what a boring piece of shit he is.

yeah, if I was in an empty room alone with Eddie Vedder, I'd pull a Miggs...

How was it a "mistake." They got paid, played to some new people and that was that.
