"We need a commercial."
"Why?"
"Exactly. But how should we do it?"
"No, I asked why."
"Maybe. But we need to be cutting edge and hip, and not look like we're ripping everybody off. What is cutting edge?"
"WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?"
"No! Even better! I saw this really hip commercial 13 years ago. I think it was for bp or old people pills or something. There were hands and folded paper and shit all over it."
"I'm sending out resumes. Can I use you as a reference?"
"I think so, too!"

Re: General Pearl Jam Bitching
Why has the fanclub become this weird separate entity from the band? Wtf.
As for exclusive shit, I wonder if the Christmas single will be an actual new song/b-side this year.

Re: General Pearl Jam Bitching
Has the fanclub become a weird separate entity? Or is this just another weird fucking message that everyone involved with Pearl Jam Inc. has just sold out? I'd love to think that the band doesn't have any idea what goes on on the 10C level but I have no idea.stupidmop wrote:Why has the fanclub become this weird separate entity from the band? Wtf.

I think they do know....or I assume they do. They're always on about how everything is in house yadda yadda yadda.They're just going about things in a weird fucking way. If I was doing the marketing/promotion I'd play up the band being involved/in house/laid back angle, not the weird business corp help us to help you like pearl jam angle.harmless wrote:Has the fanclub become a weird separate entity?

Re: General Pearl Jam Bitching
LOL yeah. It feels as if everything they do now is outsourced to someone else, save actually playing the instruments (and BoB had to actually beg PJ to get into the studio). These people all interpret PJ how they want to, but none of them do it well.stupidmop wrote:I think they do know....or I assume they do.
