LOL! Thank-you, thats exactly the kind of shit I'm talking about!

I don't know why I find this so odd...like, I guess urban outfitters had to approach the band and ask permission? Is this shirt legit from that show? But they do and have sold in the past, other Tees from bands I love: Led Zep, Neil Young, Grateful Dead, Nirvana, The Who, etc...

This guy is clearly trolling and looking for attention. The band has produced t shirts since day one. Not really getting the point about the urban outfitters post.

Really? $34 dollars for that Hollister-esque, god only knows where it's made garbage. If my Pearl Jam legend/lore/history serves me correct, was Corduroy not inspired after Eddie saw a similar jacket to his for sale for a ridiculous price? There just seems to be a lot of doubling back on prior stances, that were taken on without provocation.

Lego dude I'm not trolling and stop saying it's just about mercy. The thread title was just to get people's attention and an attempt at sarcasm, the issues are bigger than that.

It seems to me there are 3 very distinct groups amongst us.

1 - Faithfull Ale drinkers aka Kool-Aid drinkers

2 - the Indifferent

3 - Dissident's - those of us who took the message to heart & are wondering when and what changed at the top

I don't think it's necessarily wrong. Just can't really remember a time when you could go to a trendy store and buy PJ merch. It seems weird. And for the record, $35 is pretty much the going rate for a T at a show so I don't think the pricing is outrageous...

If that's from a show poster, I imagine they just had to get permission from the artist.

Nothing with the band changed. The music business changed dramatically. The band used make money from selling records and touring. Now they make money from selling t shirts and touring.

Categorizing fans? What the fuck?

I have gone beyond my intentions.

I love this band.
I love their music.
I love all of you.

Earnest,

Were you around in the mid 90s? Every store in the world was selling pj shirts and making a fat profit.

Back in my day you would walk 30 miles to get to school, haul a cord of wood, and do homework by candle light.
See no difference...lol drink more booze

That T-shirt is a Ames Bros image, I doubt PJ had a say.

As for the whole tone of this thread directed at the OP, don't go to a band's website's fan forum calling them sellouts and not expect some people to disagree.

Know your audience.

Surprised that shirt is in urban outfitters... yeah that's pretty cheesy. BUT it's an Ames Bros shirt, and they sell it on the Ames website (few bucks cheaper I believe) so maybe they have some partnership with Urban Outfitters. I can't imagine PJ signing off on a designer store selling their shirt like that.
