There’s a B-side from the rock band Pearl Jam titled “Sweet Lew,”
Oh, come on; check your facts, Klosterman!

He's the Boom Gaspar of the Manics. Except he plays rhythm guitar.

I believe he was referring to the song. Most of his other tweets about what Nicky plays in the dressing room before shows have referred to individual tracks, and Nicky's love of that song has been well documented since Vs. came out.

This is not really a Pearl Jam reference, but last night I watched this Ramones DVD that had backstage footage and caught a glimpse of a young Ricky Ramone back when he was Johnny Ramone's guitar tech. He looked so young, so innocent. Before all the horrors.

The little smirk that spreads across his face following the guitar drop never fails to make the world just a little bit colder.

I haven't seen them reference it anywhere. I know James and Nicky were both fans of The Fixer though.

The band spent only a couple of thousand dollars mixing the song. Bassist Jeff Ament said, "It was the most minimalist recording we've ever done."

Christopher John Farley of Time stated, "It's a spare, morose song with Vedder's voice warbling lovelorn over a straight-ahead drum beat. Going back to basics has put Pearl Jam back on top." Regarding the cover, guitarist Stone Gossard said, "You can try album after album to write a hit and spend months getting drum sounds and rewriting lyrics, or you can go to a used record store and pick out a single and fall in love with it."
Cut to Brendan O'Brien laughing.
