Joined a international Pearl Jam group chat on Kik recently, and started talking about how I didn't think the new album was amazing but was ok. Mentioned how I like some of the new tracks and that others were too dull, dreary and felt like derivations and retreads, particularly that Vedder seems to be less interesting / questioned if he has run his course as a creative output for the band these days compared to Ament or McCready tracks.

I put my phone down and woke up the next day that they booted me from the group because I was rude and offensive.

They referred to themselves as 'Jamily'.

I had the same exact thing happen to me when I randomly posted on a Led Zeppelin tracker that I didn't like Jimmy Page's new remasters - and on a Pink Floyd tracker when I uploaded something that sounded better than what a senior member had uploaded. There are also a lot of music forums where saying that you don't like the new Beatles remixes will get you instantly banished. So this kind of slavish devotion and severe mental retardation is not only limited to Pearl Jam fans.

I chuckled

when Tom Morello went back in to RATM's Ghost of Tom Joad and added those stupid additional sounds it totally ruined the song

he mentioned in an interview he felt like he was doing what page had done to the zep remasters

yes - you ruined them

and now it is fucking impossible to find the original version online

i need to find the CD buried in my basement somewhere

assholes

I heard the guy calling his dog today. The fucking dog is named Riot.

surprised he hasn't PMed you yet on this board

but maybe he is a pit person

I'm sure somebody on here has addressed it, but can we add to this list any person who names their child Vedder. Apologies to any of you who have already made this incredibly embarrassing decision for your child.

It's so sad. It implies they may be or may be not, the real father of the child.

What about dogs? I jokingly told my wife that whenever we get another dog we are naming it Vedder and she LOVES the name for a dog. I fear she may take me up on it...
