    It obviously gets people talking and for that reason it works. First thing I thought of was how cryptic it is. I also like that it's very subtle. The "more then casual" fan will know what it is when they see it. I like that it doesn't immediately scream "Pearl Jam."

    It's definately open for interpretation if nothing else.

    And if it was modeled after Plan B then there you go. They are a heavily influenced skate/surf band.

    It's a nice logo. The way it's made up reminds me a bit of the Doors logo:

    It sucks. But it won't be around long.

    My buddy and I were making fun of somebody at PJ20 we overheard saying they didn't know it was "PJ". Really? I can't see how you could NOT know. It's a P and a J, and you're at a PJ concert. I am shocked there are others who didn't pick up on it.

    And I love it, btw. Cool, simple, and easily identifiable.

    I didn't realize there were that many people that didn't get it, either.

    I like it.

    What I didn't like were all the advertising banners all over the venue. They are just what you don't want to see when you're listening to or playing music. :)

    i was confused day 1 by the billboard with the (what I thought was) cross promotion with vitamin water... but then i realized it was a rain delay on the live art


    i actually didn't see the puker over the weekend... i saw the PJ... and I envisioned the shapes moving into 2011... like in a multimedia presentation or something

    part of me also sees the sun rising between twin towers... which is kind of a nice image to think of around this weekend... 10 years have passed and hopefully we're all rising above while still remembering

    To me it looks like a guy bent over puking into a toilet.

    Pearl Jam's take on the Plan B skateboard logo??? I'm pretty sure that's what it is. They also used the independent logo a couple of years ago with the "Built to last" slogan.

    interesting

    wonder if this PJ is jeff's work


    i love that we all see different things and it's cryptic

    i don't think PJ made it with new fans in mind...

    and i love that the diehards will be able to see it and know we're amongst friends



    on my way to WI I was in Logan airport and the woman putting me in the xray machine says "oh you're going to the concert too??"

    had to laugh... she said she saw tons of shirts that friday and saturday

    she then asked me why the avocado - as my checkin person did in WI at the hotel... and I told them it was a secret :)

    This, precisely.

    My wife was w/ me in the merch line on Day 1 and asked why anyone would want a shirt w/ a guy puking in the toilet on it.

    I like the simplicity. I think I like it.
    At the same time it reminds me of a dog that I once knew. It had long ears, a big nose, looked like he was smiling and you could never see his eyes. But I guess this is already Gestalt psychology or something.
    The worst enemies of music? Money and Mathematics. Combined with music, they both do the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. Money makes music cheap, mathematics makes it stupid and predictable.

    It's true, it could have been "Bud Light Lime PJ20" for all of the billboards and banners promoting that beverage.


    That sign was TERRIBLE!!! With the Lasic I had done last year, night halos and ambient lights like that make everything fucked up. That sign should have been covered up or broken!
