I just thought I'd post something that made me smile slightly. Walking on Queen Street in Toronto this morning I saw that one of our city's hip record stores with a huge display of vinyl in their front window had a copy of Live on Ten Legs right in the middle of their display.
I like this because it shows that people have changed the way they think about Pearl Jam. This is a hip record store that normally displays vinyl of Radiohead, Arcade Fire, Black Mountain and stuff like Vampire Weekend. Ten years ago a store like this on Queen street would look down on Pearl Jam, not even stock it inside and curse you if you mentioned the band's name... now it's front and center in the window.

Nice...

    was it Criminal Records? they usually put more emphasis on "mainstream" artists and diversify their stock more than say, Rotate This..
