    I always find that they enhance songs... they are like little exclamations marks to points or thoughts that need to be highlighted.

    That said I have three kids and they know that there is a time and a place for swear words... for example at Grans house, public forums at school and other public places where seriously judgemental people lurk you do not swear.... but if you kick your toe and swear???? Who cares.... We listened to the 2009 Brisbane boot in the car the other day and my 9 year old commented that Eddie swore a lot and he decided that it was their show and was up to them. Obviously he can see that is is their platform and they can present their music/shows however they want. It is not like the swearing is new .....

    Just my thoughts......I always find swearing quite cleansing when required ;)

    Hey, parents!
    Just cuz your kid is in the audience doesn't mean Ed should not swear during a show. If you don't want your kid to hear Ed swearing, don't take them to the show...so fucking simple. Ed swearing during songs and such is part of a Pearl Jam show, even if kids are in the audience...Long Live Rock! :D

    I believe Ed touched on this point during the encore of MSG'03 night 2 (the one that isn't the DVD) while reading signs from the fans..

    I think the "F" word belongs in Severed Hand. As we all know if you are game for an ummm "trip," F##K Yeah is typically what you would say. ;) Come on dragons, that has to be great. :lol:
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....
    fade away...

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.
