As always, long time between watching and responding:
But hey… thanks indeed for posting!
I really enjoyed the interview! :P
Of course I missed it on telly but great to find it here!... so it is true, you get the related news over the Berlin thread... thanks.


Did anyone else wonder and somehow smile about the German journalist?
To me there were funny questions and sometimes funny faces of Ed and Matt…. But I wonder, again and again, why Germans always go back to the Grunge synonym and Nirvana when it comes to Pearl Jam!… so many questions are still focusing on this, still! :?: so to say.

Don’t get the Germans in this matter and hardly ever, so what a funny coincident to be finally clued here…
as a German.

ok I downloaded the unofficial FLAC of the Wuhlheide gig but finally the news is out... EU bootlegs coming soon and I can't wait for a proper recording of the gig!

Is there a chance to see the video of berlin concert?..
Or only bootlegs?
By the way, I do not want to believe that, they won't play in europe for "some time"!
It is 20th year and it is after Backspacer...

who said that? where did you read it?

In Berlin Eddie said they were thinking about another EU tour next summer, and now with Backspacer out as well, I don't see why they shouldn't play EU for some time...

From what I remember, I think he said something along those lines in both Manchester and London. Can't remember the exact words he used though. London was something like 'we won't/may not be back for a while'.

:(

Then again, you never can tell - I never thought they'd come over here for only 4 dates!

That's weird, what he said in Berlin was that they were deciding where the best crowds were, and that was making their decision on where to play next. (this was after the crowd had been making the "oooohh" soccer chant & hand-shimmering thingy throughout the encore break). it was pretty cool.

Ah well, Eddie will bullshit you if you give him half a chance! He also promised us boots at the Euro 07 shows!

people replied: "why go home", and he smiled.

as this post gave me already so many good news, I hope someone here might answer my question:

In Berlin PJ played a song called "Brother".
Back then I assumed it would be another new song of Backspacer. But as I learned now, this song is NOT on the new album, but I haven't heard it before....

so does anyone know what song it is or where it belongs to? Is it a B-side or a cover?
I really liked the song, and usually I know nearly every song by PJ, so thanks already for helping me out in this matter.

cheers
n.

It was a B-Side from Ten, it was played once or twice in 1991, and then never again.
there was a version with no vocals on Lost Dogs, Mike played guitar solos over it, its very cool.
And for the Ten Redux/Re-issue earlier this year, Brother (with vocals) was released as the single.

Guitarist Mike McCready on the song:
"I remember Jeff really loving it and Stone either not liking it or being indifferent about it. Jeff and Stone were arguing a lot about this song and were kind of mad at each other. Jeff got so pissed he went off and started dunking basketballs. It was like, "What's up, dude?" He got really pissed. He related this story to me recently. It was the typical Stone goes one way/Jeff goes the other. That is just how they work. They have been together forever and the dynamic between the two of them makes things work. There was a big, heated argument. But I thought it was a cool song with a cool vibe. It may have been an example of mid-tempo-itis. I recall the big argument between the two. Jeff said it was almost like he was going to quit. It was serious shit."

Ament on the song:
"I was really, really into that song. Stone wrote that song musically. There was a point during the recording of Ten that Stone was like, "Eh, I'm over it." And I was like, "No! Let's work on it." We actually got in a big fight about it in the studio. It didn't end up getting worked on anymore. It got to a point and Stone was over it. I think maybe to some degree Ed probably wasn't totally happy with where it was at, so it never came out. I think there's great guitar on that song."

That is very nice, Jordy Wordy :P
what a great answer to my question you gave, thank you very very much.
and what a nice story, too.
I really was curious, could not find the link and did not recognize Brother on lost dogs although I really like lost dogs and thought I would know it very well....

....mhmm, now I know more,
and especially that I do not know every "published" song by PJ... funny.
but back of ten I was too young for B-sides :?

so thanks again big times!
