    Are you kidding. Ed pretty much just plays during Just Breathe and all the other guys add a little backround to it. Jeff adds the beautiful bass line. Matt gives a little beat and Mike and Stone add a little backround. You can hear all of them. Why would you think that they were not plugged in? C'mon dude.


    I give this thread a big fat F!

    Last time I checked SNL said Pearl JAM was playing, not Eddie. THerefore, choose an appropriate song for the band to play. I know how the song works bro.

    they could have:

    A) played their current hit song thats getting a lot of attention and positive response, although not every band member plays on it

    or

    B) played a lesser known song that the whole band plays on, just for the sake of including everyone

    any band with common sense would have gone with choice A

    plus the others got to play on Unthought Known

    Yeah I sorta agree with this. I didn't really like the whole spotlight on Eddie during the beginning and then bring the rest of the band into view thing. That works at concerts when Eddie is playing the I Got Shit intro or something like that. But it really looked like a solo artist with a backing band last night.....which is sort of what they've become so I guess it's appropriate.

    Is Ed the only one who gets a say regarding what song is played?
