    Black Eye and Eastern Beatles are these instrumentals like creadystomp? Or are they all instrumentals?

    Eastern Beatles is instrumental (at least the ones ive heard)
    Black Eye has some lyrics but clearly was a work in progress (at least the ones ive heard)

    Some interesting info to add for Black Eye...

    In the 2001 Rolling Stone article written by Cameron Crowe (source: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/pearl-jam-five-against-the-world-244637/), there is a small reference to this track

    There is also a 2001 Billboard article (source: https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/78931/special-feature-pearl-jam) that contains the following snippet:



    Im speculating here, but would think its possible that he was referring to Eastern Beatles, Cready Stomp and possibly Black Eye (though Ridge Farm or any of those other tracks from Demo #1 could be included here as well)

    Lastly, on page 283 of the PJ20 book, the background photo is:




    There is so much history to be unearthed.....So much amazingness yet to be released.....

    This is the kind of shit i dream about. I gotta get out more....

    Great stuff @cockage. When so many here are now interested in merch and the latest sale item, this is the kind of stuff that is priceless and made things so worthy back I  the 90s. When we didnt know what songs existed and when a rare song was played live for the first time before being released. when every version of a song meant something. when ed would change a simple lyric in a song and we had to have every version of the song that existe . All of that is lost now for the most part as we wait in line 6 hours before a show for a sticker or a pin.  Thanks for bringing us back to that special time. Back to the mystery of the music

    I felt this way the first time I heard Lukin and the way they changed up RVM one time.

    Nice, do you get lucky and get that randomly, or did you have to pay dearly for it? :)

    Would love one/ both of the PJ enamel mugs (not the LB ones). I gave the one guys selling them on eBay a reasonable Best Offer and didn’t even get a decline.

    There’s a purple VS on eBay? 

    Also a s/n AP Vedder batmobile poster currently at $3.25 (yes, three dollars).
    Which mugs are these?

    DC '03 - Reading '04 - Philly '05 - Camden 1 '06 - DC '06 - E. Rutherford '06 - The Vic '07 - Lollapalooza '07 - DC '08 - EV DC 1 & 2 '08 (Met Ed!!) - EV Baltimore 1 & 2 '09 - EV NYC 1 '11 (Met Ed!) - Hartford '13 - GCF '15 - MSG 2 '16 - TOTD MSG '16 - Boston 1 & 2 '18 - SHN '21 - EV NYC 1 & 2 '22 - MSG '22

    I am quite happy with the posters I have got. However the posters I would most like to add to my collection are Zurich 96, Hartford and St Louis 98, Santa Barbara Emek 06, Pitt 13 and EV Ken Taylor Sting Ray.
