Looking for a quote about Ed's climbs/dives

Plankton

Hey, I've got that annoying thing where you know you've read something, but can't remember where. Makes it very hard to find.

It's a quote, I think from Jeff, about why Ed would do these big dives, something like 'holy crap, look this is how much this means to us' or something... fuzzy brain memory. For all I know I might have heard, not read it.

If that rings a bell with anyone, that would be great. Hopefully I'll show you all what I need it for int the next couple of weeks .

PJ Fan est. 1990

i think it was a mike quote in a recent interview article thing...something about how ed was climbing the stage and using his microphone chord as a rope to climb with...something like that...and how it scared mike...

it could have ben jeff who said it too...i don't remember...but check all the posts here about PJ articles and interviews

I think this is it. I love this article!

"That climbing happened out of me saying 'Look this is how extreme I feel about this situation. This is how fucking intense I'm taking this moment.' You can't do that for long, because what they really want to see is, they want you to chop your fucking arm off, hold up your arm, wave it around spewing blood, and believe me, if you did that, the crowd would go fucking ballistic. You only get four good shows like that, though. Four good shows, and then you're just a torso and a head, trying to get one of your band mates to give you one last hurrah and chop your head off. Which they probably wouldn't do, which would really be hell.

"But," Vedder says with a laugh, "they'd say, 'Sing from your diaphragm, at least you still have that going for you.'"

Thanks so much, imalive, that's the one I was talking about.

As you can see, my memory sucks!

Yeah, and my memory is only good for baseball and music trivia. Anything else (e.g. anniversaries), I forget.
