Red Mosquito

ITT we reflect on the fact that even though RM has its ups and downs, its epic feuds, its slow days, and a couple of insufferable posters, things could be a lot worse: we could be the official Pearl Jam message board. ITT we offer a space to discuss the inbred, marrying-your-first-cousin brain-type logic and truly magnificently horrifying levels on fandom that only rarely leak into our corner of the internet. This sort of stuff really heats up around new album and tour time, so this feels like the right time to create a repository. Do keep in mind that we have threads for narcissistic song request threads and Ed art, so we can isolate those discussions over there.

Here are just a few examples, all pulled from the first few pages of the pit today:

OP asks everyone to wait to listen to the new single for a few hours so everyone can listen at the same time: https://community.pearljam.com/discussi ... the-singel

A thread titled "One year ago today" which is about a Rolling Stone article that the OP read a year ago today: https://community.pearljam.com/discussi ... -ago-today

There is a new podcast called "Jamily Matters": https://community.pearljam.com/discussi ... matters/p1

This thread title: "if DAUGHTER was BROTHER....what was BROTHER?" (link: https://community.pearljam.com/discussi ... her#latest)

Pearl Jam fever has struck. Love it.

I would listen to Jamily Matters if Waldo Faldo Geraldo was hosting.

I hear difficulty and math.

This is great stuff, thank you.

The only cure is euthanasia.

My favorite today was the thread titled "Are you ready to be Dance of the Clairvoyant-fied?"

This shit raises my blood pressure.

Too much whining cause I only got pit tickets to 7 shows for my liking.

Don't go over and look at the first few pages of threads then. It's like when someone has a thought, instead of finding an appropriate thread to post in, they create a thread for their thought. There's like 15 DotC threads over there

No Pit for you.

AED seating only

Those DOTC threads are going to quadruple tonight, you'll see.

But you'll keep coming back to this thread for highlights, you know you will. It's like when you drive by a car crash and even though you want to look away, you can't, and there's one guy on fire and he's screaming, "Please come to Brazil!"

I’ll have to go digging - but I thank you for creating a thread in which I can post my pit story.
