    What's with the god awful quality. It's unwatchable and unlistenable.

    Making use of large video screens simultaneously projecting the band performing and the audience, “The Fixer” is reminiscent of other old-school in-concert Pearl Jam videos like “Alive” and “Evenflow,” with Crowe’s free-wheeling cameras adding a sense of being in the thick of the performance.

    That's not what I am talking about. The video image is shit and the sound is shit.

    Was also disappointed in the quality - maybe it would look better on a bigger screen. The song's really growing on me though.

    If you make a smaller shity picture bigger you just amplify the shitiness. The song and video is great. Too bad they uploaded this version.

    I just like that it's a "live" video, and not cheese-filled. :D

    like:
    girl in the front on the right
    live setting
    sounds better than radio cut

    dislike:
    the fake crowd static
    Ed's mouth not syncing up to the song
    the song :oops:

    Yeah just watched it. Was it all green screended? It's hard to watch Ed or whomever as you see Ed behind Ed on the screen....kinda weird. Then where was this shot? And who are those people? Were they even fans? They all looked a little boring....get with it people you are watching Pearl Jam!!!!

    Paid actors innit who I guess were a bit like 'WTF' when Pearl Jam came out thinking they disappeared in the 90s.

    Not a fan of the video tbh, the fake set up really goes against it for me - remember the crowd in the Even Flow video? Should have got 10C involved...

    God, you people.

    It's just a performance video, played on your computer. It is what it is.

    That's surprising, because everything else I play on YouTube sounds so great!

    We already saw this a few days ago, didn't we? The German Site that showed it.....????

    I still think it's exciting though...at least we have new music coming out from a GOOD band!

    Can you imagine how many fans would have turned up if it'd got announced on the internet - I guess its the only way they could keep it in their control, the actors weren't told who the band was they were being paid to go and see. Lucky bastards.

    I thought I read they were unemployed locals whom band management selected and paid nicely.
