    I noticed that Amazon.com has the same author's work and titled book from a 1998 edition ...... wonder what makes the 2015 release different?

    I just finished this book after finding it in a used book store. It was amazing how many mistakes were in it. Like most of us here, I am well-versed in PJ history to an almost ridiculous point. However, even a casual fan would find themselves at many points in the text correcting the author and editors. Really bad.

    I agree. didn't it regurgitate that old "pearl jam is ed's gramma and her hallucinogenic recipe" nonsense?

    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    The PJ20 book to me is the best of what's been published.

    Haha! It's Dwight from The Office (US) where he shuns a co-worker.

  • I was just thinking of The Office today, and how much I miss that show (when Michael Scott was still a character).

    Haven't read this one yet but just got a copy of the reprinted edition. Did a quick glance to the back of the book and can confirm that it has been updated. The second last page mentions the Global Citizen Festival and the 2015 SA Tour.
  • Total fucking hack job. Nothing in it is accurate outside of stuff the author read or saw in PJ20. Terrible.

    Barely worth that.
