Ok, so I already know that The Who, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and The Ramones influened them cause I've pretty much gathered that by myself over the years. I also know that Mike McCready was heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix. But are there any others that they've mentioned in interviews or magazine articles? I would really enjoy hearing them say that Zeppelin was an influence cause they are definitly one of my favorites :) any thought?

    Bruce is one of them. I'm sure Zeppelin was an influence on them. Most likely The Beatles also. I think Ed said Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 influenced him when he was younger.

    Probably The Red Hot Chili Peppers influenced them at some point. They were a huge band by the early 90's and toured with Pearl Jam at that time if I'm not mistaken. As many of us know the RHCP inspired PJ to make Dirty Frank.

    Mike lists Randy Rhoads and Stevie Ray Vaughn as big influences on him and his style aswell..

    Zeppelin and Fugazi are huge influences for them. Hendrix and Kiss, too.
