    I love your enthusiasm for this great album.

    Yield was my first Pearl Jam album, and the one that made me that fan whom I am today. Is it their best? Hells yes it is.

    I'm glad to see a lot of people enjoyed my review!

    It's funny... I'm not sure what inspired me to write it (other than the album itself, which I was listening to at the time I wrote it) but I sometimes I can't stop myself from writing... it's fun. The first draft was quick, but then I re-wrote it over and over again... it took 3 or 4 hours maybe... I'm not sure... I lost track of time... I was pretty fucking high at the time :mrgreen:

    Anyway, what the fuck am I still doing up? It's 4am!


    One more thing.... I got this review/article/whatever you may call it published.... click on it and I may earn a few pennies... http://musicouch.com/music-making/why-p ... -ever-made

    Coincidence...? :shock:

    If there is any coincidence, I am not aware of it or I haven't realised about it yer, could you explain it to me, please? I ghess you may have a piece of info I don't... something PJ or Yield related...

    Well, I was mostly just referring to the conspiracy theories and "23 enigma" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/23_enigma, but if you want a PJ connection, here ya go!

    No, I wasn't awarre of that, I am not keen on Numerology, Metaphysics, Jedi tricks, Witchcrafts or any kind of Hoccus Poccus, though I watched and enjoyed all Harry Potter movies, and I do think that the girl who play the role of Ginny Weasley was hot...
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    Favorite album?........close but no sitar. Nothing can beat No Code, but def one of PJ's best. Top to bottom, great record.

    I'm lucky to have heard All Those Yesterdays live. In fact, after they played it, Ed said to the crowd, "Ya know, we're paying attention up here. Is that what you guys are into tonight...the weird shit? This next one you've heard (as they went on to play Black) before, but we'll start fucking it up after that I think."
