    and then just :D

    Ah the pitta pat thing, yes i got to see Eddie unexpectedly. My friend and I had walked non stop the day before MSG 1 and by late afternoon we decided to sit down at the beginning of Bleaker St, simply to rest our aching feet. So i'm sitting there watching the world go by, look to my left and say to my friend, "oh there's eddie". Her response, "Eddie who", me, "Eddie Vedder". Then she screams, "RUN!" So i proceed to run down the street with my camera in hand waiting to intercept him... and this is the result - http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=1 ... 421a45d569. The funniest, no-one believes that i didn't ask him for a photo, autograph or song request esp considering i had travelled from Oz... i was in so much shock and shaking like a leaf that I didn't think a word could possibly come out of my mouth. Next time i def will hit him up for all three!
    Breathless indeed!! ;)

    You probably mean Smitty. Skully was Stone's (and Ed's) guitar tech up until around 1995, when he left to start his tenure with Hootie & The Blowfish (yes, seriously), and is now Darius Rucker's full time guitar tech including solo tours. Darius recently had a #1 country album, and according to Skully - it was quite insane for Darius and it reminded him of PJ in 1992.
    Yes... I knew it wasnt Skully but for some reason I could not come up with Smitty last night. But I'm assuming he's helping with Soundgarden's touring maybe?

    Ed's at the game again. I guess he is a masochist and enjoys watching his favorite baseball team get demolished.

    Same seats I hear.

    that picture is 2 years old, but does that mean the article refers to being at the bar 2 years ago or this week? I think we as fans need to let go a little bit in worrying where EV is on his time. Just my opinion....

    yup...
    i agree
    EXCEPT
    when soundgarden and ev are in the same town at the same time and one of them has a scheduled show
    now that is newsworthy to any PJ fan :)
