Ugh. You people sicken me.

Desperate for what exactly? You think that small clip was to tap into a certain demographic? Yeah thats the ticket! Obviously for his kids…..

You, my friend, are the definition of an unwavering fanboi. The thing that's so ridiculous about your post is you are clearly insulting your own intelligence and thereby revealing your unwavering PJ pom poms.

Reason: you claim I think "it was a small clip to tap into a certain demographic"... but, I never said that. You did. Yes, re-read it: you did. Because you know it. Deep down - you know it. Underneath your PJ shirt, your PJ tats, your mind-numbing echo-chambered PJ-filled ears, lies a heart... a heart that knows the truth.

And the truth is this: Pearl Jam, the band you love, is a horrible shell of the band it once was. A band seeking attention like an aging old grotesque botox-filled former super model. Yes, PJ is an ugly manifestation of all that could have been wrong with the opposite of what they once were. They are doing everything they possibly can to be relevant and cash in in any way shape or form. They are desperate. Very desperate. But, worse of all, they aren't even good at being desperate. Honestly, they suck at it. They are horrible at being relevant or trying to be. It reminds me of when George Costanza did the opposite and everything worked out....except with Pearl Jam, they are doing the opposite and the result is the opposite of what happened for George. They are dying. before. our. eyes. The band that at one point was the biggest in the world, and a huge determinant on all of our youth, is now literally a laughing stock for the general public. Bon Jovi has more street cred. I hope they split up because honestly that's about all they can do right at this point.

Listen, Pearl Jam sucks now but it's not because of this Daughter tag.

IlluminEddie makes PJchat worth visiting.

I prefer him more when he's Wishlist.

And when they could (and would) do shit like this-

I listen to this on a semi regular basis. Its loaded up on the MePod

Their improvs on the 95 tour were almost always great

Well, they only did 5, count 'em - 5, covers tonight in Vienna

Rain
Public Image
Needle and the Damage Done
Fuckin Up
Baba

That's a little much...

If the covers sound good, I dont care. It's not like they play 20 song sets, even if they play 5 covers you're still getting what 26, 27 Pearl Jam songs?

Also, are they actually playing Rain, or is it like when they played the first verse of Angie a few years ago?

My 5 year old daughter will LOVE this.

Covers are cool if they are practiced and new (a difficult combo, I know). I have zero interest in hearing one they've played live 1000 times.

Rockin' in the Free World is not your song, Pearl Jamz, no matter how much you wish it was.

They're Rockin' in the Free Market World now

I think Eddie is aware of how terrible he sounded...

Dont wear shirts with logos, no tats, I am a musician who likes many many many artists not just pj. You said it, you did(ha). I never "claimed" anything, do you know what question marks mean????? I would not say that you are clearly insulting your own intelligence, I would say you have zero intelligence. Sub moronic of you….lets continue.

"A band seeking attention like an aging old grotesque botox-filled former super model."

The other day I was on youtube, listened to Black from MSG 2010, it had 158,000 views. I mean one song from how many shows and how many videos on youtube and this has 158,000. They just had a number one album in 50 something countries, they headline major festivals, sell out tours in minutes. But yeah the Let It Go clip is a must, because "they are doing everything they possibly can to be relevant". Relevant to what? A delusion in your sad little mind? People simply enjoy them. And they have always been a great band, and since 1998 an amazing band.

"They are dying. before. our. eyes. The band that at one point was the biggest in the world, and a huge determinant on all of our youth, is now literally a laughing stock for the general public."

Laughing stock? I don't think anyone gives a shit about this clip weirdo. Or maybe you just hear laughter in that crazy head of yours. I think you are blowing that small clip (probably for his kids) way the fuck out of proportion, because you suck. Now when you go to a PJ concert you think its going to be filled with kid songs? Get over it crazy!

I never saw Frozen, being that I dont have kids and i'm an adult male,never really heard the song, heard of it being that it won an Oscar. But lets see, who wrote the song? who sang the song? I dont know but I bet all skilled musicians, have respect for people and stop being so jaded. If the girl who sang that song was sitting in a coffee shop I think anyone would say "she has a great voice" But being thats its part of a disney kid thing its somehow not music.

"your unwavering PJ pom poms."

Oh so I should judge them? Who cares its just music! Get a life. Oh what now I cant wear my PJ t-shirts and stand outside the fucking 7-11 with my arms crossed and stare down senior citizens and kids who just dont get my super relevant bad ass band anymore???? Its just music douche its not about proving anything or who's the fucking coolest. Oh man now at the bar the guy with The Metallica t-shirt has way more fucking cred then me, i'm gonna go run home and fucking squeal like a fucking bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are simply great players, a great band, who gives a fuck about some short clip at a show in italy for his kids? Crazy people like you I guess.

Now go delete your account bitch and fuck off.

^are people saying "Let it Go" isn't music? They're crazy then. It's an awesome song and the "girl who sang it" is Idina Menzel

This was a non-story from the get go.
