It is me playing bass and the tremelo guitar parts! Brendon is playing the awesome finger picking guitars. Eddie didn't play or sing on the track. Stone did the vocals. I don't think Jeff or Mike did any work on this one.
Trina wasnt involved. This was recorded at Southern Tracks in Atlanta. Trina was working with us in New Orleans.»

it's a great musical interlude, I miss when Pearl Jam used to do cool shit like this

Someone recently called him out on his posts, telling him he shouldn't obsess over the past with PJ so much. He said he wasn't obsessing and was basically fine. Idk, sitting around reading credits on your old albums then calling out the typos 30 years later seems a little... obsessive.

Never before heard that it is Stone’s vocals on this song.

Aye, Dave-a-needa find a hobby

dang it that's what I was looking for

Aye, Dave-a-needa find a hobby

Stop looking. Free yourself from this burden.

i like the fact that Dave A. has not mentally matured in 30 years

he remains pure

[tragabigzanda]

Aye, Dave-a-needa find a hobby

dang it that's what I was looking for

Stop looking. Free yourself from this burden.

I’ve invested too much to let go

1. We admitted we were powerless over puns — that our posting had become unmanageable.

[Leatherhead]

Surprising. Definitely seems like something Ed would be more into than anybody else during this time period.

[bodysnatcher]

Stone used to be cool

[96583UP]

Stone kept it real while Ed was manopausing

best filler track

[armstrsj]

I get Cobra Kai vibes from Dave A…could see him living his life ala Johnny Lawrence

[McParadigm]

1. I thought it was pretty well known that Stone is singing on that song. It sure sounds like him.

2. Nobody reading a Dave Abbruzzese internet post in the year 2022 has any business scolding him about being stuck in the past.

3. If I had played on Vitalogy, you’d still be hearing about that shit from me too.

4. I mean, Ed is definitely in there though. Color me skeptical about “accordion,” but you can hear his voice in the second half. Maybe his parts are overdubbed.
