Post talked about Betterman reminding him of his brother in the milatary/stationed in Hawaii. Watt was there playing guitar and showing love to EV, Post would love to crack a beer with Mr Vedder one day, as Watt said it would be a long Hang.
howard said Ed & PJ are legends, and he’s gotten to know EV a lil over the past short time.They all agreed 90s music was the shit.
Howard didn’t know much bout Watt, Andrew shoulda said “ I produced Ed’s last Record & Next PJ album, Biatch” 🤣 As always cool Interview by Howard.
Cool. Now was it good? I think it's easier to cover Nirvana than it is a Pearl Jam song.
I'm not any sort of musician, but I have heard a lot of comments that Nirvana had really easy tabs, riffs, etc.
Either way, it's incredible to realize (not just know, but fully realize) those guys were all approximately mid-20s when those 90s songs were written. Hell, considering Better Man was written *before* Pearl Jam, Eddie was probably still a teen.
Post Malone's version was well done. He did it justice.

Me neither. But to the naked ear it sounds easier. I'm sure there are other musical things I'm missing. But when I hear people cover Nirvana it's not much different. Rarely hear a good PJ cover

Last year I did a Nevermind tribute for the 30th anniversary & had to learn the bass lines to play the album front to back. I figured "that should be easy enough".
I couldn't have been more mistaken about some of the songs... there's nothing easy about the bass lines for Lounge Act, or Stay Away. Lithium is pretty inventive as well... it helps that Novoselic is like 8' tall & has long fingers... he covers so much ground on some of those bass lines. In Bloom isn't particularly difficult, but he covers a lot of ground on that one too. The bass work for Nirvana is understandably overshadowed by Grohl & Cobain, but man... Noveoselic was solid AF.

False....great music can be made with easy riffs. Cobain was legit.

Post Malone is a pretty big deal for much of the music listening world. Dude’s got individual songs with BILLIONS of listens on Spotify. Individual songs on one streaming service. Billions. You might not like it but if your only reaction to a pop singer far bigger than your favorite band covering your favorite band is “this is terrible,” you might be older than you think. Just sayin’

I didn’t listen to it but one of the nicest dudes in the business. and he’s massive. He’s headlining any festival he wants the past few years. Cool to see him showing more love to the Seattle scene.

Having billions of listens doesn't mean you get a pass though. People here crap on Pearl Jam's cover of Last Kiss and it's a thousand times better. As long as he can bring those billions of listeners over here. I'm happy with that.
Andrew Watt played it live Eddie style on guitar very well. Posty, well..uhh..nice effort
