I was somewhat stoked and a little confused about hearing one of Eddie's songs on the Deadliest Catch commercial on the Discovery channel. I can't decide if I'm more happy about being able to hear him while being bored by commercials or kind of dissappointed that the song was sold out to Discovery. I don't know maybe I'm being a little critical of the whole situation. Any thoughts?

  • good show. what song was played? and i think that at this point the band has earned the right to sell their music to whoever they want. maybe eddie watches the show, and this is a reason that he sold his song to Discovery.

    Deadliest Catch is a quality show that suffered a tremendous loss this year.

    Ed's song Rise is a very fitting song heading into this new season.

    I am sure Ed wouldn't have authorized his song if he too wasn't a fan of the show.

    R.I.P. Captain Phil

    Do you still crap in a diaper? Things change over time and you start to realize that having your song played on a cool television show is not a bad thing.

    Go check out the Frogs or some other lame band hiding behind "indie cred" because only a 1,000 people like their music.

    pretty sad that a song written for Chris McCandless gets sold out.

    or that the listed earth-first - vegetarian singer is selling out to the deadliest catch.

    Gotta love Pearl Jam circa 2010

    I got chills when I heard Rise and they flashed the picture of Captain Phil.

    No "sellout" posts will take that away from me.

    Great show.

    Great song.
