I can't think of a single thing that better sums up Pearl Jam in 2013 than that manicure picture.

Ed didn't berate any women or fire any roadies in this era either. Weird.

They had to be on their best behavior then. Cameron wasn't indoctrinated yet.

I suppose now that he's officially chosen Pearl Jam over Soundgarden in a head to head setting for 2014, next year we'll see Ed take it all to another level.

At what point will Ed actually purchase a corduroy blazer for 2 grand from a high end catalog?

I bet he already has. I think 2014 will be the year he officially sells his own designer line of them through the Ten Club. Hell, by the end of the year they'll have their own ticketing agency, and the handling fees will dwarf Ticketmaster's.

I can't wait for the 80 dollar t-shirts that say Thanks 10C for all you do!

With a picture of that dimimitriuspearljam guy on the back.

I was gonna make a joke about them selling Pearl Jam shoes in reference to the Indio 1993 show, but then I realized that it already happened.

We should have seen that coming. I mean, they were selling overpriced socks as far back as 1999.

I bet you could sell a pair of 1999 socks on the Pit for well over $100 at this point.

I should try and dig up my Yield bucket hat.

Haha. I have one of those too. I think I remember seeing someone sell one on there a few summers ago for well over $100.

What the hell were we thinking? That hat was awful.

At the time, I was working at a supermarket and one day some dude in his 30s walked in wearing the Yield bucket hat and I saw the error of my ways.

I wore mine for a few weeks, and then saw some pictures someone in my family had taken of me wearing it on my birthday and I was beyond horrified at how awful it looked. It had the most awkward shape imaginable. It was like a pilgrim hat.

The decal was way too shiny too.

I have fortunately had the good sense, in all eras, not just 1997-1998, to never wear a bucket hat.

You're a beacon on a hill, stip.

I did have a jew-fro for my Bar Mitzvah, so I had to climb to the top of that hill. I wasn't born there.

I didn't know you were of the tribe.

I am a former member. I am hoping Platy can recommend a doctor to reattach my foreskin.

I'm an atheist and I sure as hell don't want my foreskin back.
