After Breathe on 7-5-03 in Camden/Philly....I remember eddie saying after it.."I believe Stone Gossard wrote that one, in his sleep, or within after 5 minutes of waking up"

it seemed like such a typical thought in Eddies world.......

    Wow. Speaks volumes, even today. I'm not sure the message hasn't been lost 15 years later though...

    Scratch that. I'm positive it has been.

    MSG 98, in response to all of the "Play Breath" signs:

    "You fucking cocksuckers! You fucking bitch! You know, we come up here as a collective band and we give and we give and you just fucking want more... and you know what? You deserve it! This is some kind of, like, organised religion here, I've never seen anything like it. Do you see what's happening? The third night in a row right? Well... fuck you! We're gonna play it!"

    Cue the first live playing of Breath since 1994!! A long quote but a classic!!

    Power to the people man…. The real people, the people that work, not the people that sit in their towers, and try to run the whole thing, thinking that we’re too stupid to notice what they’re doing! They get us in our little holes, and our boxes, and our cages and they show us American Idol and American Gladiators and American …. blowjob, buttfuck, whatever. And everyone watches with baited breath. Oh, who’s going to get a blowjob tonight? What American’s going to get a blowjob tonight? When in reality, you could be getting one yourself instead of watching the fucking TV, I don’t know. I digress. I’m going to get a guitar.
