    Check out another cool cover from our friends at Bring Pearl Jam to Israel, it's made by an Israeli Rock band called The Blue Pill -

    If you like it, please share!

    If I could write in some squigly, non-sensical hashmarks with a dot here and there it would say "Good job, guys. Especially the guitar work."

    Their videos are pretty amazing. The kid that did the solo for Alive killed it! I really hope PJ will play Israel, it will further the idea that I need to visit there. I'll support the cause!
    40+ shows, it is never enough!

    Jane's Addiction just played in israel in 2011. These kids did an awesome job performing alive by pearl jam. I think PJ should play israel. The kids performaning PJ was the best performance i've seen since george mason playing rage. I would go to Israel to see Pearl Jam without hesitation.

    No excuses Jane's Addiction played there . Like Nike and Jordan said Just do it.......

    That was awesome! You can almost picture the smile on Mike's face when that kid stood up and rocked the hell out of the solo. :clap: I hope the band have seen this as I think they'd really like it.

    I really hope Israel gets a PJ show one day

    Hmmmm... I don't actually 'know' Eddie Vedder... but, I'm pretty sure he speaks his mind... from time to time. Chances are, he will say something that he feels and believes... that some people won't like hearing.
    Maybe it's best that they play in Europe so the Israeli Pearl Jam fans (that know Eddie might voice an unpopular opinion that some people will take personally) and they can vacation in Italy or something.
    I hear Italy is beautiful.
    ...
    P.S. Great job kids... maybe the campaign should be for Israeli people to raise money via donations to send those kids to a Pearl Jam concert... here. Or Italy.

    Except that there are many more Israeli fans outside of these kids, and many of them probably can't afford to vacation in Europe. That's why it would be awesome for them if they could get a show in their home country (and I believe this to be true for fans anywhere in the world).

    I agree, Sir.. but, you know (being a Pearl Jam Fan yourself) that Eddie often times voices his political opinions from the stage. I think that maybe... if he voices his political views in your part of the globe, it might not go over too well. People in the audience take that shit way too personal... sort of like some of the people here did in Denver and New York.
    You and I understand that it is simply a personally held political view and it does not mean that anyone with an opposing view is evil or stupid or wrong or the enemy or should die... they are simply, someone that does not agree with our point of view. But, there are those that aren't like you and me and take that shit as a personal attack.
    For example... what if Pearl Jam DOES go to Israel... but, decides to play in your occupied territories? Would that be acceptable? I'm guessing, not so much and the whole thing would get real ugly... real fast.
    It think it's best that Pearl Jam steer clear of that minefield until y'all over there can settle your adversarial differences with reasoned dialogue, not destruction and death.

    Hi,

    Poeple can come and go to the occupied territories as there wish so there will be no problem for Pearl Jam to play a concert there. So, if there are PJ fans in the west bank they can raise their voices and call the band to play there too ( and that will be actually amazing!! :D ).

    You can't talk about a show in Israel without turning it in to a (political) debate until...

    Hope no debates will evolve here as our only wish (that later became our primary goal for the last couple of months) is to see our beloved band playing in our home court.

    This is all to it folks. Almost all of us saw PJ on their tours atleast once, and for a change, it'll be nice to host/have them here ;)
