     Live solo shows he does. Isn't it a Pity is a cool cover on the organ.

    Loved the performance.  Great choice of tune... very fitting.  

    Also... has Ed officially embraced the baseball hat stage of his career?

    Ed has been wearing baseball hats since Pearl Jam has been a band.

    Enjoyable, but something with the other Pearl Jam band members might have sent a more upbeat message. The Stones pulled it off...

    Yeah.  Lyrics may be positive at the end but the music is pure depressive. Great job but need more upbeat for this show.

    Just checked it out.  I like that version much better than the album track. Very succinct.  I don’t know if I should start another thread, but can we take a minute to discuss Charlie Watts clowning around with air drums during You Can’t Always Get What You want? I mean talk about stealing the show.

    River Cross is now the most popular single off Gigaton (per iTunes).  Amazing what a little promotion will do.

    That was solid gold.  Wife and I were both laughing the whole time.

    I thought Charlie Watts was playing air drums as well. However, a few articles suggested that he was actually a program called Aerodrums - which was why he was wearing the headphones. I guess you can play the drums with these high tech drumsticks to a computer program. Anyway, I found the website. It could be what he was doing.

    I agree. It felt like a funeral dirge to me, with the organ and the dark room.

    He could've have played The Fixer I guess.
