So, Vedder's a trash-metal fan now? Or did he just like the shirt? Because I gotta admit, that's a pretty kick-ass looking shirt.

I was thinking the same thing ...

I'd never heard of "Exodus," but according to Wikipedia, the band formed in 1980 in San Francisco with Kirk Hammett as a founding member. This, obviously, was before Hammett went on to join Metallica.

Now, the band consists of:

Rob Dukes – Vocals – 2005-present
Gary Holt – Guitars – 1980-present
Lee Altus – Guitars – 2005-present
Jack Gibson – Bass – 1997-present
Tom Hunting – Drums – 1980–1989 / 1997–2004 / 2007-present

Anyone know if Ed has a connection to either of those guys?

I'm pretty sure Ed is buds with Kirk Hammett, so that might help explain the shirt.

Exodus have a song called 'Riot Act'

More useless info for ye all... :roll:

I think so too. I'd say Johnny Ramone brought them together. Kirk used to make Johnny french toast.

It took a bit for me to realize you just left out the "h" in thrash metal. I was about to defends me some Exodus!

Speaking of Johnny Ramone, do you think the new song Johnny Guitar is about him? The song title makes it seem like it would be, you know?

I think those pics kinda stink.

As a photographer... I see lots of room for improvement.

Yikes... does Matt have scoliosis? Does he also like to stand with one arm behind his back holding onto the back of his other arm. That is some akward posture.

He's probably tired of having to slouch to look the same height as Ed
(no offense to Ed)

LikeAnOcean

Ed's gotta trim that beard.. he looks too much like The Dude. He Might as well just wore a robe and boxers for the shoot.

As someone who has made a living with my camera for the past 15+ years, If I showed these photographs to a client, they would fire me on the spot. Absolutely terrible. One word before press time boys RESHOOT!!!

I couldn't agree more although I wouldn't have handed them over to the client. The only one I kinda like was this shot http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2437/3793698818_4c2fc29895.jpg I can see what he was going for there but he didn't pull it off. I wish I had the chance to shoot a band of this stature, maybe one day.

That photo just cracked me up. Haven't had such a good laugh for a long time. I look at it and think "the cause of all my stress, angst, lack of sleep, anxiety and ecstasy boils down to these five guys". Happy looking critters arent they! They never did enjoy posing for pictures! Not to mention that when I printed off the photo, they all turned out green due to my bad printer.

Exodus Rocks. Love this song
