Geezers Christ am I the only one that didn't think he was bein an ass? He came back with a smile on his face

Another one of those "pearl jam sucks now and here is something I'm going to be dramatic about "

Dudes trying to entertain thousands of people and his guitar was totally fucked up. Why wouldn't he be frustrated. Dude is an intense fucker.

Eddie Vedder? Temper? No way. What a suprising and never before seen facet of his personality.

Theres a couple of betterman videos but you cant really see matt. I dont think ed actually flips him off anyway, just kinda waves a 'aw fuck it' hand.

No sound but its around halfway through.

Thought exercise:

How would the internet-reactions have played out if Ed had walked around the stage keeping the guitar at arms-length away from Rammy Ramone there?

It's all to do with how you treat another person. And your employee. Fuck that attitude.

consider them as friends that mess with each other... like siblings.

No I'm with you man. I was only saying IF he was being disrespectful who cares we are all human and he has done enough great things for people over the years that I don't care if he does show a bad mood once in a while. This board doesn't want to talk about any of the good things he does because they have to stay cool on here and show their friends they don't really like Pearl Jam that much anymore. Like that thread about where Ed had the concert for EB, I think that thread didn't make it past the first page. But anyway, personally I think he was showing frustration not disrespecting another human, as some have put it :roll:
