    So why did Eddie Vedder get called out? Because he threw the first punch — and, according to Nikki, the guy’s a douche:

    “The thing is: If you want to badmouth my band, I’ll probably say something in return. What I don’t understand is why the guy is talking about my band. He’s a successful guy, let’s face it: guys fly private jets, he lives in a mansion in a gated community, he sells out stadiums, and he dresses up pretending to be a guy in the ’90s… Don’t talk bad about my band, man! At least I’m being honest.”



    And Nikki Sixx dresses up pretending to be a guy from the 80's with a weird hair cut, hair dye, and eye liner. I'd much prefer to be dressed as a guy pretending to be in the 90's.

    And I don't even think the statement is true.  He dresses like a normal person.  Mike is the one that dresses like a rock star,  if anyone.

    If Nikki Sixx had a sharper wit this could be a lot more interesting 
    Not like "Fuck Mötley Crüe" is David Letterman-levels of wit.
    I was trying to stay respectful of our hosts!

    Seriously.  Dude wears a flannel and some jeans, just your standard normal clothing. `

    Kind of dumb for Ed to specifically mention Motley Crue. Just generalize it with the hair metal scene. He opened himself up for some criticism.

    Don’t get me wrong, I banged my head to kickstart my heart and a few others, but Pearl Jam fucking rocks hard as shit, but what Stevie Nixx and his crew aren’t interested in beauty.

    Pearl Jam fills us with everything that is wonderful about music

    Nikki 6 looks like he is dressed for a goth Halloween party, who is he to judge what people dress like? Eddie put his foot in his mouth when he specifically mentioned their band, should have just said I don’t relate to the 80s hair bands.

    I love her.  So much talent.  The songs she wrote at like 25 years old are astounding.  I was a dipshit at that age, and she was writing things like Landslide  I can't relate at all. 

    Although in fairness, she didn't come up with "Unskinny Bop".  So she didn't have the "genius" market cornered.

    Nikki is an amazing songwriter, whether you like those songs or not. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    She is very talented and I love her solo and FM music, but I had the misfortune of seeing her play live in the late 80's when she was not at her best due to a few things. I have seen videos of performances by her after that, where she was much better.

    What does "evil shit" even mean...

    I'm pretty sure he's laughing at all of this, judging by his Earthling live banter.

    Same with Nikki Sixx.
    Same with 99,9% of general rockfans and Mötley Crüe-fans. The number for Pearl jam fans is 99,7%

    well, he obviously does, since he mentioned Chad's non-swinging drum kit at one of their shows.

    Yeah. Like, 47 min after Nikki Sixx tweeted about it. So sure, maybe he thought about it for 23-24 min in total. 

    But obviously that was funny, a guy faking drinking wine on stage making fun of someone offering non-fake spectacle to a spectacle kind of rock show.
