    Do you think Eddie while being at the show saw all those people and got an urge to do a stadium tour?
    I think the only stadiums that Pearl Jam can fill in 2023 are smaller stadiums in a specific handful of cities, like Wrigley in Chicago, Fenway in Boston, Citi Field in New York, Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia and Safeco Field in Seattle. I think Pearl Jam would struggle to fill similarly-sized stadiums in most other cities, and definitely would struggle to fill the stadiums where the Bears/Jets/Giants/Patriots/Eagles play, or a SoFi in Los Angeles or Levi's in Santa Clara.
    Depend on how many shows they do? But I believe they can. I think they will have to promote themselves a bit more. Have an opening band that people want to see. Doesn't mean it has to sell out in minutes or seconds. Blackpink is playing MetLife and there are still a ton of tickets left. GnR the same thing

    From PJ? Yup. From Taylor? Well her fans are loving the Taylor's Version albums. Great business decision from her and she has the fans that will insist on the new versions being played on the radio. Gutsy. I'm sure Tom Petty would have found a conversation with her on that subject fascinating.

    Wish the other big bands would have backed PJ up in the Ticketmaster debacle. Would have been great if someone with her clout had openly joined forces with PJ and testified next to them at the antitrust hearing.

    It'd be interesting to see how many Pearl Jam would sell if they did a "Pearl Jam's Version" but that ship sailed with the various re-releases.

    Besides, that version of Black would be a disaster with the high notes.

    Her voice hasn't changed that much. I don't think she would be able to do it when she's 50. Her voice might get deeper

    No, no, no. You're thinking about this all wrong. What we really need is Speak Now (Pearl Jam's Version). I think the band could do an epic version of "Back to December."
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Maybe Ms. Swift has been playing Mastermind with our boys?

    They still to this day have the fastest sellout in Wrigley history. Just under 2 mins. I think if they did a stadium tour they could pull it off. Would they fill Arizona State like U2 did? No, but they would fill Soldier Field one more time for sure.

    Maybe Ms. Swift  was hanging in Ed's yard enjoying the Labyrinth?

    I love that we grow up. No way myself or EV in 1992 would be doing this. Today it’s like “Taylor Swift tickets, fuck yeah”

  • Taylor’s great, don’t get me wrong, but she’s no Miley Cyrus

    I would have done this in 1992. Good music is good music, and my favorites circa 1992 were virtually split between "edgy" alt-rock and catchy pop tunes. I used to keep track of my 40 favorite songs every week, and when I look back at those lists, I'm struck by how ecumenical the list usually was: grunge and other hard rock side-by-side with pop, R&B, dance and rap. Some of this was the result of the fact that top 40 radio in those days played a much broader range of music than you get today via radio or streaming. Anyway, I had a lot of friends in college who turned their noses up at pop music, but I never did. And having a broad palette allowed me to catch on to Wilco at the very beginning. My friends all (with one exception) dismissed Wilco as country music when I played them the first album, and then after Being There came out, they were all suddenly begging me for my extra Wilco tickets.

    One other thing about Ed and Taylor: even the most hardened Taylor Swift skeptic (yes, it's hard to believe it, but there are such people) would probably not pass up the chance to go see her show if they were on the guest list and got to go backstage and hang out with Taylor, like Ed and his family get to do.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.
