    You people fret over nothing. You would think the band had just allowed a song of their's to be played on "Friends" or something.

    ...i like the game... i found it enjoyable... plus it serves as great distraction at work!

    As for the guitar hero or rock band or whatever-t-f it is... i think its cool...itll make me go out there and buy the game system just so I can play the the entire album of what initially got me into the best rock band in the world way back in 92...

    be pissed off if you want... feel the need to say dumb things like "its getting harder to defend the band...", dont renew your membership... just means me getting closer and closer to the stage at each show at each show...considering ive been pretty close, maybe you not renewing membership will get me back stage...jk :lol:

    that's what i said, but apparently that makes me an ass. 8-)

    I didn't mean to call you an ass, and it wasn't a personal attack. I didn't even bother to read who created the post. My point was that "if you don't like it then shut your mouth and ignore it" is an overused statement in response to any time someone disagrees with something about the band. You're not an ass, it was just an unoriginal statement. If people want to air grievances about the band, right or wrong, there's no more appropriate place than this forum. But by the way you jumped all over one word in my post suggests that you really aren't into debating points anyway. It doesn't matter, I was just throwing in my two cents, just like you. Thats about as far from stirring the pot as it gets.

    The problem with the fruit roll-ups is it tastes like the deodorant.

    also... people evolve. if pearl jam was still the pearl jam from 20 years ago, that'd be pretty pathetic in my book. so what if theres more marketing today? maybe they didn't want marketing before because they, as they themselves have stated (i'm pretty sure they have, correct me if i'm wrong), were too immature and inexperienced to handle fame and didn't want to be in the spotlight. fast forward 20 years. they're not popular anymore.
    and besides, who CARES if they use marketing ploys? what should really matter is how their music effects your heart and soul, how pearl jam can make your worst feelings go away in an instant, how you can connect with other people who feel the same way and just "get it".
    wow.. that really wasn't supposed to be a rant, i swear :oops:
    i wish the band still was like they were 20 years ago least they didnt have verzion wireless props on stage and werent charging people 100 bucks for concert tix. this band used to slam bands who marketed themselves and now they become part of the machine

    It's gimmicky as hell. That's why. I think it screams of selling out.

    Yeah...this was a Sony/Epic thing, not a band thing. So they really aren't involved with this other than having to go along with someone else's promotion scheme....that's business for ya....

    :lol: REALITY CHECK PEOPLE...I GUARANTEE we wouldn't see this from PJ back in 96...The times they are-a-changin...still my favorite band, but I think alot of you are letting your super-fan status haze your perception of reality...as for the game, it is a cool time killer.........................................

    They did have stuff liek this back in 96.

    Pearl Jam did Monkeywrench radio back in 96. HAd there been more widespread use of the internet, you might have seen stuff like this.

    People still expect PJ to play their records on AM radio or what?
