I just watched the SPIN McCready interview and it made me think.

If you worked for a magazine like Rolling Stone or SPIN and could interview someone in PJ:

1) Who would you interview?
2) Imagine you only get 3 questions. What would you ask that person?

discuss.....

    Can't decide between Stone or Mike, but it would definitely be one of them.
    I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    I'd interview Eddie Vedder.

    1. How awesome is Jimi Hendrix?
    2. Do you like Nevermind?
    3. Do you hope Britney gets her kids back?


    You know, questions that Rollingstone and it's readers care about.

    That would be hard to say. I've always wanted to interview the whole band. That's not a fair question!!

    I guess it would be Stone or Mike.

    1. After all these years, can you still see yourself playing with the same guys for the rest of your career? Why or why not?

    2. Do you feel like you have an idenity in this band, since most of the press and public focuses on Eddie?

    3. How many and what kind of records do you see yourself making in the years to come?

    I can't decide between Stone, Jeff and Mike. Probably Jeff wouldn't be a good idea because I'd giggle throughout the interview. :D

    I'd definitely like to know what it's like to do long tours. If it's always fun or if they sometimes get tired and just don't feel like doing it.

    I'd love to know if they've now gotten used to the fact that they're famous or if it still feels strange to them. Jeff said on SVT that he just can't get his head round the fact so many people listen to their music but I wonder if he still feels the same way?

    I'm not sure about a third question.

    wow, you are going to have a huge thread here with this one. Good topic.

    I would interview Eddie because of course I love him. I would also because he has been so misunderstood that we all do not have to ask ourselves, "why doesn't he like interviews?"......

    my three questions would most likely be,


    1) who has influenced you decision to make writing/singing your career the most?

    2) what do you feel is the main inspiration for your writing new and fresh concepts all of the time throughout your musical career?

    3) what would you say, if asked, was the most misunderstood statement you ever made that you felt was distorted and made into a huge mania?
    Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on The Creek......


    Together we will float like angels.........

    In the moment that you left the room, the album started skipping, goodbye to beauty shared with the ones that you love.........

    For Eddie...

    The greatest unsolved mystery to you?

    What is the best mistake (concerning Pearl Jam) you've ever made?

    I've heard you don't like to be interviewed, what would you like to ask me (maybe one of those questions you don't know who to ask, mentioned in I got ID lyrics)?


    That's out of my head, very spontaneously..
    The worst enemies of music? Money and Mathematics. Combined with music, they both do the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. Money makes music cheap, mathematics makes it stupid and predictable.

    For Jeff:

    What is your favourite bass line in a song?

    What kind of posters would we have if you designed them and what is your favourite out of all Pearl Jam posters?

    Did you ever steal some kind of sport equiptment and why?

    Ed:

    1) I really want Into the Wild on Vinyl. Can you please give me $200?

    2) You have met and even befriended loads of famous musicians that were presumably your heroes growing up. Who do you still want to meet?

    3) Desert Island - you get a solar powered turntable and 5 records. Which records do you bring?
