I'm pumped that I get to see PJ again NEXT month! Thank god. This fiend needs a fix something fierce. *twitches*
Aww hey Nadi, remember Bridge 2003 when I yelled "STONEY!" between songs and we were watching the screen and saw him turn around and smile??:) I'm telling you, such the connection! The man just can't deny our love. It's everywhere!!! hehe.
Ok, I'm BUMPING up with the LOVE thread with a little picture party! Woohoo~
HAHAHA!! Thank you! The princess shot!
OMG, what a hysterical/priceless moment! I'm so glad you got a picture of this.
Whoa! 1,500 posts already? That is so damn beautiful. I hear ya Sammie & bookworm30...it totally makes me all fuzzy too. Knowing that the love for the man brings us together and that it's growing more and more each passing second. I also love how this is THE most consistently positive thread on the board. ALL FOR ONE, ONE FOR STONE!
As always, you guys are very much welcome for the pics. Anything for my Family of Stone. Ooo Happenstance, that shot of the magic fingers is one that I saved from the 2003 tour. :cool:

You're welcome!
It means... (very quickly as I need to leave now!)
Friday Sept. 29th Radio 1 will broadcast exclusively the concert of the great American rock band Pearl Jam, taped during the Italian tour.
The evening will be presented by Gerardo Panno, who interviewed Stone Gossard in Milan - interview that will be broadcast together with the concert.
Pearl Jam are the only great band in rock that were able to move from the rage of the grunge revolution of the early 90s to a new version of typically American mainstream rock. "Pearl Jam", released early this year, was the eight studio album of the band: a deep and rugged record, viscerally powerful, that confirms the band as a milestone in modern rock.
That's just beautiful nowayimfaithfull.
Indeed...HAIL TO THE KING!
Laura!!!!! Thank you so much for the heads up on that broadcast. I just saw that in another thread too. WOOOOW! Heeeey hoooooe...MILANOOOOO! Ok Laura knows how obsessed I am with this show! I am SO in love! I've been listening to the boot non-stop ever since I got it 3 days ago. It's one of the most amazing things I have ever heard. This crowd?? A historic show and one that truly makes me feel SO fuckin proud to be a fan. I can't praise MILANO enough. It is straight up earth shattering! Awww and there's an interview with STONE during the broadcast?!! Jesus! See, here they go again. Just when you think it can't get any better....
I hope the interview is posted later on.
I can't get this damn thing to play. *sigh*
Well luckily I can still listen to my Milano boot (which I am currently doing).
Sammie, you are so welcome for that fuzzy happiness. Aw and thanks for the weekend wishes...same to you my sweet Gossard Girl. haha Pati, he does look kinda buzzed now that you mention it. I guess it's fitting that I used to word "intoxicated" to describe the effect it had on me then huh?
OH whoa! burnerben!! YES!! What a kick ass post! RITFW SD~I know exactly what you're talking about. Someone actually made a thread about that in the Given to Fly forum some months back. Seriously! Stone went awall! :eek: The mostest badassest for damn sure! His solos all together, especially during RITFW and FUCKIN UP though, have been extra extra badassest! He is getting Mikey reactions these days! He really is. People turning to each other with jaws on floor because of THE DUCK ON FIRE! Daaaamn straight!

"Lo√e, you know the word
...YOU invented it!" ~ E√
I have been typing up - while listening to the concert on the web - what Stone said to the Italian radio guy.
Key points:
Stone interview took place before the Milan show.
Pearl Jam introduced as a band of friends, that still connect now like the did 15, 20 years ago.
Was asked about the first 2 shows in Italy (Bologna and Verona) and said he thought Verona was better, it had more energy and that the bad weather (it rained so very much and stopped only an hour or less into the show) actually helped energizing the band and crowd, because you focus more on the music, less on yourself.
Was asked about playing in Italy, a country which adore them (so true!) and where the last album debuted at number 1.
Said they love Italy, the cities, the monuments. Mentioned that he's just finished reading a book about Leonardo da Vinci Flight of the Mind (i think that's called)
Also, mentioned that the new album is one of the few that can be played live in its entirety (and they did in Turin!).
----
Part 2
Ed's a tremendous singer-songwriter. He loves being in PJ, it's his home. His ability with voice, lyrics, words... Eddie has the same quality as Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen. He's really sth special. I am just happy to be a part of it.
Ed's unique, to be as good as he is and still wanting to co-write with everyone in the end, whereas other frontmen would find that restrictive. He loves to play in a band and chooses to keep playing his old punk rock band. We played like we did in the past.
You have talked about your love for the music, sth that connects you ...
The reason behind my playing music, picking up an instrument is enthusiasm. We are not great virtuoso musicians, but there is sth exciting about the simplicity of two-three chords - we have learned that from Neil Young - but that simplicity is the perfect vehicle to get out this emotion, feeling.
Another important element in your music is the need for a new American Dream.
Ed sang the patriot song - I don't know if you've heard him.... Everyone can relate to feelings of loyalty, connection to groups you identify with, but you also need to be able to see the polarity in the world. Eddie sings like an American patriot. There are positive aspects
I appreciate the way Eddie talks about America and questions it and also embraces being American by doing that.
You have donated for the carbon reduction strategy; you took part in the Vote for Change tour. You were the youngest representative at that tour.
Thank you. We wanted to challenge the status quo, so when we have opportunities to do that, it's a good thing.
Presenter gives his view that he believes PJ the greatest band in the last 20 yrs in terms of classic rock.
I don't think we have done anything more than the Who and Led Zeppelin yet. But Ed's capable of that. I certainly think Ed's one of the greatest singers of all time.
I am proud we continue to play rock music. I love what we do, sth that also allows you to make mistakes, doing always sth different with setlist. I am proud that we do not take ourselves
This is because we want to be spontaneous and always try to keep it move it forward.

ah, it's taking me longer than anticipated to post this, as I got distracted listening to the webcast and had to share my enthusiasm w/ the board!!
I'll post and then re-edit. They also mentioned there will be a Stone podcast after the show. So I'll check that out. So, goes my Friday night!

"Why do I bother?"
The 11th Commandment.
"Whatever"
PETITION TO STOP THE BAN OF SMOKING IN BARS IN THE UNITED STATES....Anyone?
I have been typing up - while listening to the concert on the web - what Stone said to the Italian radio guy.
Key points:
Stone interview took place before the Milan show.
Pearl Jam introduced as a band of friends, that still connect now like the did 15, 20 years ago.
Was asked about the first 2 shows in Italy (Bologna and Verona) and said he thought Verona was better, it had more energy and that the bad weather (it rained so very much and stopped only an hour or less into the show) actually helped energizing the band and crowd, because you focus more on the music, less on yourself.
Was asked about playing in Italy, a country which adore them (so true!) and where the last album debuted at number 1.
Said they love Italy, the cities, the monuments. Mentioned that he's just finished reading a book about Leonardo da Vinci Flight of the Mind (i think that's called)
Also, mentioned that the new album is one of the few that can be played live in its entirety (and they did in Turin!).

Part 2
Ed's a tremendous singer-songwriter. He loves being in PJ, it's his home. His ability with voice, lyrics, words... Eddie has the same quality as Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen. He's really sth special. I am just happy to be a part of it.
Ed's unique, to be as good as he is and still wanting to co-write with everyone in the end, whereas other frontmen would find that restrictive. He loves to play in a band and chooses to keep playing his old punk rock band. We played like we did in the past.
You have talked about your love for the music, sth that connects you ...
The reason behind my playing music, picking up an instrument is enthusiasm. We are not great virtuoso musicians, but there is sth exciting about the simplicity of two-three chords - we have learned that from Neil Young - but that simplicity is the perfect vehicle to get out this emotion, feeling.
Another important element in your music is the need for a new American Dream.
Ed sang the patriot song - I don't know if you've heard him.... Everyone can relate to feelings of loyalty, connection to groups you identify with, but you also need to be able to see the polarity in the world. Eddie sings like an American patriot. There are positive aspects
I appreciate the way Eddie talks about America and questions it and also embraces being American by doing that.
You have donated for the carbon reduction strategy; you took part in the Vote for Change tour. You were the youngest representative at that tour.
Thank you. We wanted to challenge the status quo, so when we have opportunities to do that, it's a good thing.
Presenter gives his view that he believes PJ the greatest band in the last 20 yrs in terms of classic rock.
I don't think we have done anything more than the Who and Led Zeppelin yet. But Ed's capable of that. I certainly think Ed's one of the greatest singers of all time.
I am proud we continue to play rock music. I love what we do, sth that also allows you to make mistakes, doing always sth different with setlist. I am proud that we do not take ourselves
This is because we want to be spontaneous and always try to keep it move it forward.

ah, it's taking me longer than anticipated to post this, as I got distracted listening to the webcast and had to share my enthusiasm w/ the board!!
I'll post and then re-edit. They also mentioned there will be a Stone podcast after the show. So I'll check that out. So, goes my Friday night!
