Pearl Jam wrapped up a four-night, sold out run at Philadelphia's Wachovia Spectrum by dressing up in Devo's famed jumpsuits and "energy dome" hats and launching into the band's hit "Whip It" Halloween night.

This story is like Tom Delonge. It's a circular narrative, in that nobody gives a flying fuck.

How do you play guitar dressed like a bottle of douche?

A better question is, how do you sing with your nuts in a denim vice?

Answer: not well.

Whenever I sing I usually think about high school and fixing my hair in my locker mirror.

For eccentric Pearl Jam fans, this is probably hilarious and great.

For everyone else, what the fuck is this?

Polysics already did this last year, and they played a better song too.

One of my least favorite bands covering one of my favorite bands, ughhhhh. Eddie Vedder fucked up some of the lyrics but at least the bass player is as fat as Gerald V. Casale and moved like him too, I bought that.
