yeah dude. you posted it for the world to see. anyway ive changed the picture to mike mccreadys grandpa to be relevant.

Normally I don't care if people take a photo off twitter, that's public. The only thing with that particular photo is that it's my brother's fiance and my brother has an account here and he'll get his panties in a bunch if he logs in and sees that.

I always look at this thread and think, "what are people bitching about?"

I guess when it comes to Pearl Jam, it just isn't in me. I have too much appreciation, respect, and just blind undisputed love. I hate to rank the albums because I don't want to admit I have a least favorite. I hate to rank the member because I admire them all for different reasons.

They have been there since I was 11 years old and growing up in a classic rock family they were the first band that was mine. My Dad had Rush, Triumph, Bad Company, LZ, ect. I love my Dad for teaching me about so many great bands. Pearl Jam was my turn.

I consider myself a blessed fan. I have been to 69 shows. My first was in 1996. It was my first time ever in the brand new arena in Buffalo. I went by myself. $150 bucks. Every dollar I had in the world.

I think of these things...

1. I've been to 3 PJ shows in my hometown, PJ10, PJ20, Benaroya, Borgata, St College 03, 6 shows at MSG, the last 2 at the Spectrum, and have seen every song on an album except All Those Yesterdays

2. I met a lifelong friend at the Columbus 00 show. I have been able to take both my brothers, my mom, my wife, and my best friend to shows. I got to take them to my peak and experience the moment with them. Black with Mom was one of the best moments of my life. I went 0-21 before I heard Release. I took my baby bro to his first show in 2005. Picked him up after his 3rd day of high school and we went to Toronto. His first song was Release. He is like that. He does remind me my first song was Oceans.

3. Any time I have needed Pearl Jam they are there. My senior year of college I almost died. Just a month or so after I got back from Benaroya my appendix blew up to pieces. I was in the hospital for 21 days or so and listened to Pearl Jam all 21 days. I got better (ended up with Crohns like MM) got back to school and had to go to Boston in 04. First song, release. You can't make that up.

This is all over the place I guess. My version of general PJ bitching. It's just not in me I guess.

If you ever need a PJ apologist PM me.

Good Stuff

For what it's worth, I wouldn't necessarily interpret criticism of Pearl Jam as being less of a fan. I get far more out of being critical of artists or bands that I really enjoy than I do from ragging on things I'm just not interested in. I'd rather pick apart which songs by Pearl Jam don't work for me and try to figure out why than only stick to heaping praise on things I think they knocked out of the park - that isn't to say I don't enjoy the latter too, but I don't find it as enlightening or engaging a discussion.

While I find stip's opinion that Faithfull feels like an unfinished song completely bizarre, it's interesting and that's the kind of thing I think I keep coming back here for. Generally speaking, I'm of the mind that if something feels less satisfying or enjoyable after you've been ruthlessly critical about its merits, there's often good reason for that.
