A bit of rock history… this little drum break on Jewelers and Bums got me the gig with Joe Strummer. On the coming tour with Joe, I met my wife to be and of course EV. Thanks to @lonnie_marshall for whispering in Joes ear ❤️
Pearl Jam frontman recalls meeting the Clash frontman, and his furture
bandmate Jack Irons, on the same fateful night in a new excerpt from his
Audible Original, I Am Mine
I’ve had the pleasure of 🥁ing on some very cool vinyl releases the past couple of years.. in order of these posts.. 1. Eleven’s Howling Book @alainjohannes released @orgmusic .. 2. Repurpose Purpose @bigolnastygetdown one drum track for entire EP. 3. @thejonnypolonsky Supernatural Radio. 4. @slowburndriftersofficial Golden just released and 5. last but not least.. @pearljam Give Way!
New 2025 funk jam with the great @jackironsdrummer! Here are some new grooves we wrote and recorded last month, more music and some special releases are in the works, stay tuned! I’m playing my @mayonesguitars Jabba bass strung up with Ernie Ball super slinkys, and recorded with my Eich T-1000 amp’s DI, no plugins, just a compressor pedal. Jack plays his custom Masters of Maple drums with Zyldjian cymbals and recorded with Luna. This jam is also out on YouTube with just the bass cam, check it out on Remco’s Groove Lab. Hope you’ll enjoy and have a funky day!
Happy 30th anniversary to both the Red Rocks 1995 shows. Best nights ever.
If I had the chance to go back in time to the year 1995 to catch a few Pearl Jam shows in June, it would of have to been these 2 nights @ Red Rocks. That Jeremy version they played live, blows my mind!

I'd go with you D to catch them both again! I was at both nights, and what memories I have from those shows! Both shows were great, but nothing like the second night with that amazing setlist. No Jeremy was outstanding, but even more fantastic was Falling Down. A OTOTO...I mean come on. It doesn't get much better!

No it doesn't. I remember listening for the first time that Jeremy cover as a bonus track on the Pearl Jam unofficial bootleg CD Road Rage which was for the Salt Lake City '95 show. It blew my mind! I couldn't stop listening to it. Years past I was able to see both shows, on VCD.
I'm not sure why they haven't been back to Red Rocks.

I have that boot too and it's a good one!
I have one of 2 theories about why that haven't played Red Rocks since. One, I think the band knows just how special those two nights were and could never capture that "lightning in a bottle" feel at Red Rocks like they did in 1995.
Or two, Red Rocks seats 9,000 and if they played there again they'd have to most likely play 3 nights because those shows would sell out fast. Giving us fans the opportunity to see them. I prefer to think it's theory number one with Red Rocks being such a sacred venue to the band. I know it is to me.
