    are you being serious?

    how is this head of hair http://starbulletin.com/2007/04/20/features/art2a.jpg a mess?

    seems like he ties it back a lot and when he doesn't it always looks well cared for to me.

    14. people on the pit who waste 8 posts of their life arguing about Booms hair.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    oh where do i start

    1. Political talk between songs... play Lukin 3 times instead... i'll go to a peace rally if you want me to, but when i pay $90 a ticket i want some fucking tunes.

    2. Jeff's weird 3/4 length trouser things...

    3. Matt Cameron's hairstyle

    4. lack of B-sides.

    5. their on stage period between Ten and Yield in which they had way too many pairs of shorts on at one time and they just ran around the stage like monkeys on roller skates.

    6. Ben Harper

    7. too long between albums.. in 3 years the Beatles whould have released 298 songs...

    8. The album cover for Ten... yuk

    9. Their propensity for touring the North East of America and not much else.

    10. their ticket prices for their last show here in London, UK... $90 for 1 ticket!!! thats more than double the cost of Kings of Leon, White STripes, Raconteurs, Sigur Ros... etc etc...

    11. Poster collectors and/or other memoribilia vultures who complain like fuck when they dont get a towel in the sale... its a fucking towel, grow up

    12. the fans that know absolutely everything about the band, middle names, birthdates, favourite meals, only like the bands that Ed mentions, when and what day a certain album was released, who produced the demo sessions for it, what year wine Ed was drinking in Sacramento 1998.

    13. listing the shows they've been to in their sig... which can only be a show-off thing.. if its to remind you when you went to a gig then i'm sure you'll have framed the ticket stubs... look at them.



    tongue in cheek ;)

    As talented as Eddie is... Why should I listen to the political views of someone who didn't go to college, and is rich?


    I'm sorry...

    But
    What does a college education have to do with anything?

    I hate to break it to you friend...but college means DICK...and it sure as fuck doesn't earn you the right to speak your mind about the direction of this country.

    I don't need to piss away 30 grand a year just to make myself educated, intellegent and informed.

    So fucking what if Eddie isn't a college grad.

    He's better for it.

    Yeah, Evacuation. And not touring the UK enough. That is all.
    All my favourite singers have stolen all of my best lines.

    I can see it now... tour announced Tues... Wednesday 4,000 Next Day Air AM letters arrive at 10C postal box... same day thread started with title "Post the exact time your NDA letter was delivered to 10C", just so everyone is sure their tickets are in the correct order :D

    Social awareness does not equal political activism!

    5/23/2011- An utter embarrassment... ticketing failures too many to list.

    Can't say anything bad, Love them!! I take them for what they are; I love it when someone has a passion, musical, political, whatever! To me, they've proven themselves time and time again.

    I don't like it when Ed preaches to the choir and is disrespectful of other people's views. Or when he states his beliefs in an assuming and vague way.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    When was he disrepectful of other people's views?? I've heard him speak about his views and say that the choice is yours. I've heard him say his best friend was a Republican and that everyone has a right to their beliefs and that it makes it more interesting.... or something like that.

    I'm not sure how you can be assuming and vague at the same time

    1) Songs that meander and don't go anywhere. Their last three albums are all guilty of this.

    2) Vedder forcing politics down peoples throat. I agree with what he says, but how about actually enterting a public debate instead of preaching to the choir?

    3) Bad production on last three albums (I can't be the only one who thought the whole Binaural sound just didn't work, right?). Looking forward to hearing Brendan O Brien again.
