Pearl Jam Cancels Their NC Show

[B]

Aren't all of Michael Moore's movies critical of these kinds of assholes? Make movies about what dicks Republicans are, but don't show them to the people who vote for Republicans.

Its made the news over this side of the pond. Mainly via Sky news, a Murdoch/Fox owned outlet. And so you can imagine the type of comments it's getting.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

Right-wingers complaining that Lefties are "intolerant" and "bullies" are like Nazis complaining that Jews are mean to them.

It's also funny how negative comments about these sort of things always involve someone "ramming something down their throat" that they have "no interest in". Freudian to the max.

Kind of like when Pearl Jam tries to jam the Fixer down our throats

Hey, we dodged that bullet Saturday night!

Yes we did. The rare show without The Fixer or Evenflow

[Birds in Hell]

They almost never play The Fixer.

[tommymtcom]

Evenflow should really EvenGo, am I right?

99% of RM was really excited about the fixer when we heard the boot from the video shoot.

I think Even Flow would've been pretty cool in an encore. Like back in '96.

[Simple Torture]

It took me a long time to piece together everything going on in that picture.

[doug rr]

is it a cartoon piano on fire? otherwise I don't get it

[Simple Torture]

It's a dumpster fire.

[doug rr]

ah...looks like a waste management piano

[Sgt. Crackpot]

A hairy liver with a fliptop?

A hairy liver with a fliptop?

That's actually a really good description of my state right now.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

If Pearl Jam had any guts, they would add "April Fools (He Had The Change Done At The Shop)" to their setlist immediately.
