    What turns me on is the fact that it wasn't even the first single and I'm pleased.

    I'm with you on this, but I think the majority of the initial dislike is due to the fact Conan was horrible. Everything about the show sucked to me so by the time PJ came on I was ready to just shut the TV off...and the fact I had to wake up at 5am and the show ends around 1am made me a little grumpy too :o

    Woah woah woah, you thought Conan sucked?!?! How is that possible? The show last night was great, and not just because of Pearl Jam. It was an awesome first show!

    It sounded like "Got song" to me.

    I couldn't quite tell what he was singing. ;)

    "I got song if you need it..." :D

    I noticed that too! Or maybe he just wanted to get closer to Matt, who was on fire last night -- awesome drumming! I loved how Conan kept thanking them too -- I love Conan!

    I think most of us would look short next to Conan -- he's 6'4".

    Eddie looks short next to Pearl Jam. That doesn't really matter to me - I'd love Eddie at 7 feet or 3 feet. I was just wondering about how tall him might be so that my fantasties of him could be more realistic.

    Conan did suck. I have mixed emotions, I thought the band was into it, totally rocking, good to see stone moving a bit. The song is new and I could bet a rough performance of it. Ed will get it. The song had a "catchy" chorus! mixed feelings but I know after I hear the album a few times or even this song, it made me feel that I can turn it up and really enjoy it. Can't wait for the album PJ!!

    Ed a little bit heavy. A tour is in order to get the boys back into shape.

    Nice, you are correct. I was wondering about the name of this album. There has to be another reason though? Like why would they name the turtle backspacer?? Whats up PJ??

    To be perfectly honest, the song sounded disjointed to me. I agree with people who are saying Ed sounded a little off, but it wasn't just his voice, I just thought the vocal melody wasn't that great and didn't fit particularly well with the music. Also, while there were some really cool breakdowns in the song, and the bridge was awesome, it didn't feel like it necessarily fit together particularly well. To me it sounded like a song that was still a work in progress.

    But whatever, this is just based on my first listen, and my opinion could definitely change over time. And if not, I don't need to love every song. Plus, this is definitely a song I could still rock out to in concert.

    Maybe they just really like the Supergroove album named "Backspacer" lol
    And I listen for the voice inside my head... nothing. I'll do this one myself.

    Get Some is a nice rocker, but it sounded like Ed's voice was blown.
    Too bad he didn't have a chance to rest it over the weekend.

    I'm looking forward to hearing the album version.

    I completely agree. I seemed like he needed to warm up with a few songs before playing that one- maybe backstage or something.

    I was googling trying to find out who wrote the lyrics to that song... and came across to this site:

    http://www.comcast.net/music/blindedbyt ... amgetsome/

    It seems like he's trying (subtly) to accuse PJ of plagiarism - that it sounded similar to Devo's 1978 "Gut Feeling".

    Please do not leave nasty comments there if you decide to...but rather to provide constructive comments. Or just ignore him.

    I thought the song was excellent and Conan was not that bad. I think too many people are trying to compare him to Jay Leno and really he just did what he normally does...being goofy.

    Back to PJ... I thought the song rocked! I did think Eddie's voice sounded a little rough, but the sound quality was not really that great either so maybe that had something to do with it as well. I can't wait to stand in line at the electronics counter at Target to purchase my new PJ Album!

    Seriously? I htought it was a weak show.

    Nah, it was a great. The Universal Tour was great. Running all the way across America, and then forgetting his keys, was great. Will Ferrell was great, as usual. Joe Biden ("I like chimichangas. Do you have swine flu?") was great.

    I worry about the sense of humor on this board sometimes. I got some if you need it.
