Match DD: Grievance vs. Jeremy

[EJ]

Awesome

Why did Ed rush to pick up Mikes guitar after he slammed it down I wonder.

To give the guitar to Letterman.

[Kaius]

Ahh

[darth_vedder]

Grievance

[---]

Grievance is what I want my Pearl Jam rock to be.

[Simple Torture]

Sorry, Jeremy.

[epilogue]

How is Jeremy losing?

Madness.

[knee tunes]

Jeremy is underated.

wait. I have no idea at all how Jeremy rates and where.

[William Bloke]

I still remember watching this performance in the lead up to the release of Binaural, and I think I still have the VHS somewhere. It's by no means a perfect performance, but it was beautiful and raw.



Fuck, was this really 14 years ago?

Awesome

Ed had loaned Mike the guitar.

[William Bloke]

Madness.

sheer and utter madness

Totes.

[Thejambi]

Jeremy was too popular to get a vote here. Grievance is sweet and probably top 20 Pearl jam but Jeremy is in another league.

[digster]

Both of these deserve to go further.

[Thejambi]

Aw-huh

[Leatherhead]

I've heard some versions of Jeremy from the 2000 tour that are pretty cool, but most of the time I'll skip Jeremy if it comes up. I liked it a lot when I first got into Pearl Jam, got old quick though.

[PHATJ]

I still love Jeremy. It is top 20 material for me.

[McParadigm]

I still love Jeremy. It is top 20 material for me.

It and Animal are the two early Pearl Jam tracks that best capture the primal, uncalculated stimulus response thing that was once so engaging about them, for me.

I'm glad they don't try to achieve it, now, because it requires a lack of analysis and a denial of self-protection that maturity doesn't handle very well (case in point, both of the aforementioned tracks feel like they are reduced to exercises or playful reminders when played live, after about 1995), but I enjoy both for defining a quality of the band that used to be really, really remarkable.

Agreed, and I still love Animal too.

Matt was so much better when he just slowed the fuck down. Everything is so fast now, he's forgotten how to add to the performance


And, also, true story:

When I was dating my future wife back in 2000, her dad (cool dude) gave me a little "So you want to date my daughter" questionnaire as something of a joke. One of the questions was something to the effect of "How do you want to live your life?".

I wrote "I just want to be. I will feel alive as long as I am free"

[BurtReynolds]

Grievance easy.

[McParadigm]

"How do you want to live your life?".

I wrote "I just want to be. I will feel alive as long as I am free"

I will feel alive as long as I am free to sleep with other people. She can't do that, though. I mean, obviously. Sir.
