I definitely understand any anxiety you might have, trust me, but, look at it this way...no one is there to judge anyone else who's there; they all share in the desire to hear a truly great Pearl Jam album.
Go and don't be ashamed to be a fan. There's enough negativity in the world.
Amen to that brother. Have we all forgotten how to go out in public?
Don't get me wrong here...I'm not judging anyone for feeling that anxiety about being out in public. Hell, I spend my life sitting down, and 99 times out of a 100, I'm the only person in any given room in my physical situation, so, I 100% empathize with being self-conscious. I can tell you that lockdown definitely altered many of my own behaviors, as well.
The only purpose of my post was to make Ruddo feel more at ease about their decision to go.
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

Something to be said for being comfortable enough in your own skin so as to not care about the need to be so self-consciously cool.
I stood in the corner and provided wry and witty commentary about how the drums sounded like ass and Ed's vocals were too breathy. Unfortunately my pearls of wisdom were drowned out by obnoxious sounds of cheers and and happiness. I hate Pearl Jam fans.
This post made my day

Then it turns out it wasn’t the new arcade fire record some other band put their album out pretending to be the new arcade fire record leak and apart from that being a stroke of genius I came on here and admitted that and that snob Kevin Davis went one of his interminable lengthy diatribes and called me ignorant and that’s exactly what’s wrong with leak culture
He didn’t like leak culture.
There’s a lesson in this.
Never did find out who that band were. It was a brilliant album
If only someone had the idea of leaking Dark Matter and it's out there right now under a different name.
The honking seals with their great new album truckin to the bright light
Say that in lettermans life and it might make sense
It's nice to hear mostly positive first impressions from those who attended, but I really need to listen to these songs myself now. I guess the earliest that can happen is another 3-5 hours, if one of you fine RM folks record and upload that fast.

Most people don't like Riot Act and Binaural which are my favourite albums so couldn't care about what some fuck wits think.

Pearl Jam fans are clearly the absolute worst reporters. The Aussies dropped the ball this morning and clearly our Euro faithful are now doing the same. This is like the London listening party all over again. It seems like anyone who has heard this album, either instantly forgets about it or perhaps more nefarious...has their mind erased so they can't provide any coherent descriptions. This is failure on a global scale. Hopefully the Americans have their shit together today. Your mission is clear. Forget about the booze and dancing Greek guys yelling Eddie....do your job like a pro today and get us some HARD DETAILS!!
