    Hard to not be smitten by Tommy Lee's enthusiasm for wanting people to experience the drumming.

    IT'S  ON LIKE DONKEY KONG

    Kind of using a cheatcode throwing in South American crowds though.

    So on Eddie's Crusade so far he has attacked:

    - Mötley Crüe 
    - Whoever wrote the single Girls, Girls, Girls
    - Tommy Lee
    - Women who have the same haircut as Heather Locklear 

    Who will be next?

    Also, for the people talking concert sizes....this is a measure of popularity, yes?
    Wouldn't album sales also be a measure of that, specifically  for any grandpa bands like ones formed in 80s or 90s, before the days of the download ruining that?  
    Motley Crue sold out stadiums for years.

    Ha.  Nice.  He also has Ted Nugent on there.

    Jeff Ament has a tough decision to make.

    He's calling John Corabi to sing on the next Pearl Jam record.

    My money is on Eddie in a fight.....I feel as if Nikki would be too concerned with his nails and makeup and hair....Ed looks like he would be a scrapper....

    I've met both in person. Sixx physically has about 6-7 inches of height and who knows how much weight on Ed. Ed would definitely be fighting way out of his division.

    Then Eddie can work with Ron Nevison like Vince (and KISS) did. And really show his full potential!

    Yeah, agree.  Funnier than arguing over things that actually matter but our opinions also have no impact on.
    (And fighting speculation on two old men is perhaps the dumbest/funniest conversation of all.)

    Pearl Jam's social media getting involved, an ultra-rare Tim Bierman sighting, Ed referencing it onstage...this is dumb.

    I think "petty" is a better descriptor than dumb.

    Missed opportunity to not have Tim Bierman as Eddies hypeman onstage.

    I mean, they’ve been NOT selling out stadiums longer than they’ve been selling out stadiums w/o other bands help, PJ has been selling out stadiums and headlining real festivals since MC has not been selling them out.

    Sixx and Vedder should hash it out. Then they could do a duet version of "the haves"

    I like Pearl Jam more....but also like Crue.  Plus, this is funny, to me.
    I don't know where to find how many tickets each band is estimated to have sold, over course of careers.  
    I can see that by albums, though, and it is not comparable.    
    Also -- a band's popularity means little, to me.  
    People don't go to see Mr Bungle or JSBX, but they love Doja Cat.  
    Just putting it out there since this seems an important indicator, to some.

    Seems it more sums up what passes for "News Media" these days.  I read the original article the day before all the sloppy outlets decided to pick this tiny comment up as a headline.

    The original article was interesting, Ed spun the questioning round and was effectively interviewing the journo a few times! There was a great section on loss, grief and mental health.

    But of course it's 2022 and all anyone will remember now is playground shit talking.
