    Picked this up today from WHSmiths

    Have just skimmed through so far, but looks very very cool! They've gone to some trouble - much better than most of the crap I've seen on Pearl Jam in music magazines here in the last number of years.

    I'm not the world's best photographer, but have taken some snaps to give the impression - would be quite hard for me to photo the whole thing for people to read - I think it's about 20 pages.

    I'd gladly send some money in if any of you, kind British people bought one copy for me, please.
    I'd really like to have one of those. Anybody willing to do so?

    pm me your address, I'll get you one. That makes two orders now - I think that's my limit though! :D

    There's quite a lot of writing, and quite a few pictures of Eddie looking hot for you ;). I've not had the chance to read it through yet - I think you need to read the story from start to finish for it to make sense.

    The whole main 14 page piece is written by Mick Wall, who if I remember right has done at least one book on Pearl Jam, which I have definitely read, but probably about 15 years ago - so I can't remember much about it. I seem to remember it was one of the better books around back then, could be wrong though - you have probably read it, and more recently than me PilateOfTheStorm!

    See, us Brits do have our uses Dimi.

    I will try and read through the whole thing tomorrow, and give you my verdict - it's pretty nice to pick up such a substantial piece on Pearl Jam in the mainstream UK music media though - really can't remember the last time that happened. PJ20 is obviously making some sort of impression.

    Is possible - I don't know when it came out, but it is a monthly magazine and they have weird cycles don't they?

    I was trying to think of where I knew the name of the writer Mick Wall from, and then remembered he was quite a prominent writer for magazines - writing about grunge, including Pearl Jam in the early 90s I think. I swear his name used to pop up a lot. Seems he is also the editor of Classic Rock magazine now. I will have to give his thing a proper read - I doubt it will say much that is not known to the rabid Pearl Jam fans here - but is probably a good thing to read for people who are not so obsessed with the band as we are!

    I googled him, I swear he used to write pieces about Pearl Jam for some of the US magazines too, like Rolling Stone, but I couldn't find much about that.

    This is from his own website bio though, which I found funny:

    1993 - 95
    ... RAW magazine, where I am roundly loathed by all the staff (bar the editor, my old mucker Jon Hotten) for daring to write stories that help the magazine sell enough copies to keep them all in jobs. They are all music fans and think they are somehow in the music business. They are not. They are in the magazine business - just.

    As for the British press I was pretty stunned to see very very positive reviews in 4 magazines of ukulele songs - including kerrang and Q. Seems the writer of both has a huge respect for Eddie
