My guess would've been the old Synergy board, but 5H is probably just as likely. The term dates back pretty far, I think.

The Amsterdam one? It's okay. Not the best in recent years, not the worst.
It's modern Pearl Jam so it kind of sucks.

Yeah, I remember it being used in the AOL chat room around then as well. It was used frequently enough that I assumed people on the internet had been using it for quite some time at that point.

Uh...

I do think it's pretty funny how Pearl Jam can lean so heavily on their reputation as a band that eschews traditional promotion and is always on the road when neither has been true for a good few years now.
Have Pearl Jam really not done a music video for fifteen years? Didn't they do one for "Life Wasted?" And "Amongst the Waves?"

Yes, yes - as well as World Wide Suicide, The Fixer and Unthought Known.

And, though it goes without saying, as to Pearl Jam not doing commercials:

They also licensed Unthought Known for an episode of FlashForward. It's the way of the world now. Black Sabbath's new track was in CSI:TedDansen

didn't they license Yellow Ledbetter to be used in "Friends"? They've been at this for a while now. As well as that "Cold Case' episode where they used all PJ songs a few years ago

Hey, I was genuinely optimistic and excited about the possibility of big site update to announce the new album and tour. That shouldn't count as 'bitching'.
Spoiler: show
At least I don't have to rewrite my 'did pearl jam's website just change' script. Which I totally wasn't using to get the edge in tickets before the lottery
