God I hate pearl jam fans. This would have killed me to witness

The only thing that bummed me out was that the people camping out in the front for PJ could barely give a clap for the Replacements. Very few did. The rest was silence. People shouldve been going nuts for them. Top 10 rock band ever.
Couldn't agree more. It was like 90% of the crowd had never even heard of them. It was shameful and pathetic. I felt embarrassed that my great city would dish that up to such a legendary band that deserved more.
Tommy and Paul made a few remarks about it, sort of in jest, but you could see they were disappointed (or maybe bemused) as well. They were melting in the heat, and I was thinking the crowd was going to push them over the edge and they'd walk off after 40 minutes. Wouldn't have blamed them.
I was wishing they had done a late night set at Stubb's or somewhere like that ... at night with a proper set/crowd ... would have been unbelievable. But they still crushed it. The finishing run of their set was my clear highlight of the night ... I Will Dare > Can't Hardly Wait > Bastards of Young > Left of The Dial > Alex Chilton ... just phenomenal and for me it was above anything PJ produced (who were still fantastic as always). It's a shame the crowd was full of a bunch of losers with zero clue about the greatness they were witnessing.
The people who complain about Pearl Jam fans project their collective impression of all the fans they don't like as a whole on individual fans. The problem is, that collective impression which is taken from a variety of fans, adds up to a persona that exists for pretty much no fan.

wine.
right.
grape drink?
My theory of 2014 Ed.
Limp = no pain killer = wine
No limp = pain killer = little wine
