    Every time PJ release an album (it started with No Code), they play all the songs from the new album, with an interview with Eddie in between the songs.

    It's usually a good show. You can stream the edge at edge.ca

    I'm in for the Loose Moose both nights. Heading in from Montreal with two random girls from this site, so hopefully I'll meet up with some cool PJ fan members.
  • yesterday on the Edge they were playing commercials all day regarding this.
    So if you've got a chance, listen monday for more details. there is also a HUGE Pearl Jam contest starting on Monday at the edge. It's called the 3hour tour or something like that. What it is, is the winner gets to spend an entire day with Pj while they are in T.O., tickets to both shows May 9 and 10, plus the entire PJ discography!! Bookie annouced this contest yesterday at 4pm.
    And for the PJ hour, all that I know so far it's happening April 30th on the edge at around 6pm.
    Bookie from the edge said next week is Pearl Jam week at the edge.
    I'm looking forward to it!!!


    Awesome, thanks for all the info!! :):)

    just curious...I was still debating if we would keep the rooms at the Grand and hoof it from the show.. The short explanation: If someone else is walking from the shows several blocks then I should be fine walking to the Grand late night. The longer explanation is that I noticed the DC was a bit further and since you've been to TO before and seem to feel comfortable walking the longer distance perhaps I should stop entertaining my pansy worrying about the comment made about the Grand being in a less than ideal locale....I'm thinking perhaps I live in someone's version of an "unsavory locale" or I myself might even be someone's idea of an "unsavory character"thus belongng in such a place ... I am slow to trust words from a 2 year old Toronto guide (but don't want to be stoopid either)
    got a car...got some gas...oh let's get out of here-get out of here fast...
    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
    I want to go but I want to go with you.

    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. -MT

    I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.
