Occy sang a capella Pearl Jams Betterman in Mick's wedding.

for those who may not know(probably 99.8% people in here) Mick Fanning is the current World Surfing Champ and Occy is 1999's champ.

just finish reading the article in Transworld Surfing Mag. It's PJ related so WTF... right??

    Betterman would be such a great love song... if it wasn't about an abusive relationship where the woman is settling.

    It as good to see Occy surfing the Fiji event.
    Would have been hilarious at the wedding, seeing Eugene come out of Mick. :D:D
