    SVT is really only for the PJ nerd herd. I don't think a person who isn't a fan yet could really get into it.

    Ya gotta start slow.

    A (to her unknown?) band making an album that's not really that well-known? Five guys talking about a binch of songs she haven't heard and she fell asleep? REALLY!? ;) Even I fell asleep when I watched it the first time because I'd never heard Yield. You need to start a little more light. Imagine in Cornice or LATG should do the trick. At least it worked for me.

    Thanks for all the suggestions..... I guess I am a huge PJ nerd and love Yield too much not to understand it....

    Why does she have to like PJ? Your not going to get somebody to like anything if you force feed it to them. I love PJ but rarely do I ever bring it up or play it when im with my friends. Just play it whenever and make no mention about it..if she asks who it is just say its pearl jam.

    Tell her what Pearl Jam mean to you, and if she likes you she should try and except it

    Oh, the long term prospects for this may not be great, but don't give up just yet. Ten is surely the starter for erm ten, when introducing someone to PJ :) Give it a whirl.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    Agreed. If you like her, don't try and force PJ on her. If she shows an interest, perhaps THEN start weening her onto it. If she doesn't, and you keep pushing it on her, you'll most likely push her away for no good reason.

    I personally don't find SVT that interesting and can see why someone who isn't a fan might fall asleep during it. I can even see myself falling asleep during it if I wasn't in the mood. Owned it for years...think i've watched it once. Doesn't live up to the hype around it for me.

    It's over.














    :p;)
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    hahahahaa... why i found that funny i have no idea... but i really did...
    live pearl jam is best pearl jam
  • SVT? For someone that doesn't really know anything about them? I dunno. SVT probably only seems interesting and watchable to big fans of pearl jam. People that aren't big fans don't want to watch them go through the process of creating music, and talking about it. They just want to hear it.

    Well that's cool. I'd suggest something but I've never been out with a cheerleader type. If you ever need advice on what to play that would interest a crazy, fucked in the head bitch, you let me know. Good luck!

    Is she hot and is she good in the sack?

    If the answer to those two questions is "yes", then fuck Pearl Jam!

    There I said it....

    So I've just started dating this girl. She is a cheerleader type, likes sports, really cool, but knows NOTHING about Pearl Jam. I thought the time was right, so I popped in SVT to begin the education process... She fell asleep.

    Where do I turn next?

    well your first mistake was thinking that a "cheeleader type" would be a good choice. id say you got yourself into this mess...its up to you to get out of it.

    but if i were that stupid to begin with....id suddenly wake her up....startle her....then throw her to the curb for disrespecting and for being a cheerleader.

    puke
    Seems that needlessly it's getting harder
    To find an approach and a way to live
    Are we getting something out of this
    all-encompassing trip?

    Geez, you make it sound like a cult! :p

    Really, the best thing to do is bring her to a concert. :)
