Unless your boss is Eddie Vedder and he says "you have to sign on something if you don't want to."

Your insistence on Ed being a villain is so weird

same

What if the rest of the album sounds like Trans and these two singles were the bait and switch?

You fuckers have me paying attention to the drums lol. And I have no idea about drum sounds or recording techniques, but Matt is on fire on this track.

I think this one will grow on people, generally speaking.

this explains everything.. makes perfect sense.. how could i not have considered he had lost most of his hearing... i guess even with hearing aides, things still don't sound the same

-he’s suing an EB philanthropic fund
-the band is paying their tour artists in merch

1) source?
2) the details on that were far from clear and Ed's own EB charity is legit as I have shown through links and info I posted
3) source?

Perry Farrell requested 62.5% of all Jane's songwriting publishing on the eve of recording Nothing's Shocking or said he was quitting.
Ed's practically Mother Teresa in comparison

Absolutely- it's already grown on me a lot through 4 or 5 listens

I would definitely tie Stone up in the basement, if:
A. My wife would let me
B. I actually had a basement, in which I could then tie up members of my favorite bands

have you asked her? times are a-changin'

Imagine that nobody told Francis Ford Coppola that “Jack” was an awful idea for a movie!

are you saying Coppola was deaf too? Or are you saying Ed is deaf to criticism, even the self kind?

Mother Teresa lived off Baby Doc Duvalier’s money and ran a chain of scam “hospitals” where they deprived patients of medicines telling them than pain was Jesus kissing them.

I wouldn’t use her as an example in this contest unless I wanted to really insult somebody with this comparison.

he is, it's really pushing me over to "I really like this" rather than "this is fine" (as well as the wall of loud guitars)
