On Friday night in Italy, while playing an extended version of their song "Daughter," Pearl Jam—much like one out of every two cars that pass you on the street, and every child on the planet all the time—busted out a little "Let It Go."
This video compilation of Pearl Jam singer Eddie Vedder falling down while performing on stage, repeatedly, was posted by user XwaspenterprisesX in December 2011. Thanks to commenter Mark Edwards for bringing it to our attention. Enjoy.
Eddie Vedder, the lead singer of a garbage band called Pearl Jam, fell down on Tuesday night while performing in a garbage city called Philadelphia, on the band's 23rd anniversary of making garbage music. He's OK. [Via @chunklet]
This review of the terrible new Pearl Jam record is pretty good at capturing how terrible Pearl Jam is/was.
Jay-Z's "99 Problems" has been refashioned as rap-rock so many times (via Danger Mouse and Linkin Park and there's also this alt-country cover that that irritating, self-consciously cheeky and ironically white sensibility that these things usually do). It makes sense — Rick Rubin's original production was riff-based…
No doubt, that guy who sounds a hell of a lot like Freddie Mercury was pretty impressive. But Javier Diaz, who hails from Santiago, Chile, sounds exactly like Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder. As in jaw-dropping, OMG, holy shit, unreal.
