Eddie Vedder supporting The Who

[Birds in Hell]

Ed Solo to an audience that isn't Cubs executives and Ten Club members will go over great.

greatest hits set plus a couple who covers. they'll be eating out of his nicotine stained yet immaculately manicured hands.

Greatest solo hits? Quick set

elderly woman, etc

Alice In Chains and Soundgarden both only have two songs more heavily streamed on Spotify than Hard Sun or Society. Weird, but true.

Hard Sun and Society are great tunes.

It’s not a comment on the quality. Society outstreaming Rooster, Fell on Black Days, and Spoonman is just counter-intuitive.

PJ/Eddie just have more widespread appeal in 2019 than those two bands.

Eddie could have had a solid solo career, if he had more songs/albums of that quality.

or didn't put out a ukulele album

A ukulele album of re-recordings of a bunch of songs he wrote a decade earlier about his ex-wife.

Pretty weird, tbh.

I listened to the whole album driving up to the North Shore on Oahu a couple years ago and still couldn’t really get into it.

I like the ukulele album a lot, though I haven't listened to it for a few years. EV has done a lot of moneygrabby things over the past x number of years but an album of all ukulele music doesn't seem like one of the moneygrabbier ones.

[LetMeSleep]

I'm really hoping that Ed drops a solo album this year. After the track from I'm Not There I thought he'd do an album with some session guys. Eddie and the Heartbreakers would be nice.

And then the next PJ album may not have so much EV written material and have more band material.

Yup. Uke songs has some really good stuff.

[McParadigm]

I liked the muffled recordings that came out yonks ago better than the album. At heart, those are crooning songs, and his modern hiccupy singing does them no favors. Also, there’s really no reason to keep them uke-only, other than that it gave the project a theme that was comfortably creatively limiting, and served to keep it from requiring much effort beyond “relearn these old songs.”

Not that I want all those songs to get band treatments, but none of them are *served* by the complete lack of support. A gentle bit of piano on Without You would have been nice, for example. Light touch stuff...Love Love Love, Idylls of the King, and Game Shows Touch Our Lives by The Mountain Goats come to mind.

That's a fair critique.

[Jorge]

It should have been an EP

[epilogue]

"Yonks ago" will now be part of my vocabulary. Many, many, many years equals a yonk. Yonks ago Jimmy Carter had an oil problem.

[bune]

[Monkey_Driven]

It seems like it could be slang, so I will accept it.

Google is your friend

[epilogue]

I remember, yonks ago, when all my friends were using Gmail and I was still using Hotmail. They tried so hard to get me to switch. Finally, I did and I've never regretted it.

[McParadigm]

The best thing that will come out of this concert is that durd learned a new word.

[epilogue]

And that's what life is all about. I've spent yonks trying to better myself. And all it took was a defunct Pearl Jam message board.

We got defunct that you can dance to. We don't mind if you choose not to.

How ya be ya people of the sea. It's been yonks since we've seen ya.

"Sea" and "ya" don't rhyme, Pete.
