Ten Past Ten : A really good article!

edited July 2013 in The Porch
I made a post a while back asking about links to articles.

I came across one that I thought was really well done, with tons of quotes from the band and many many more.

It's pretty long but a really great read.

Wouldn't say there was a ton of info we don't already know, but the timeline is a nice way to preset the article.

Give it a read and share what you think!

    It really is good. I've heard the history of the band alot. But reading it through the words of the band, Kelly Curtis, Dave Grohl, Chris Cornell and more make it a Great read.

    If you like this article, may I recommend Mark Yarm's Everyone Loves Our Town - An Oral History of Grunge (I'm reading it right now). Many of these quotes are included in the book. I enjoyed the article very much and the book is pretty interesting.

    Ha...Maybe it's time for a Ten Past Ten Past Ten article.

    Take it for what it's worth. It's an article written 10 years after ten.

    If you actually read the article you'll see why I suggest it. It has interviews with the entire band, Kelly Curtis, most of sound garden and many other influential artists. It goes deeper than pj 20 even.

    Worth the read. Even I learned quite a bit and I've been learning and following pearl jam for over 20 years.

    Well worth the time :)

    THe bile beer incident is definitely a must to read...Gives an idea about Eddie's on-the-edge character at the time.
