    Cross referencing Noodles career stats with Pearl Jam shows, this would have been a two night set, November 1 & 2, 1995.  Height of the serious stalker situation which kept him from being a full participant in the Mirror Ball recording sessions with NY.  The Merkin Ball EP was recorded in February  of 95.  

    These were tumultuous times for the band and Eddie in particular. I don’t remember the exact date of when that maniac rammed into his house, but I’m sure that had a lot to do with this.  

    I thought you meant Noodles from the Offspring when I read this post, not JM, a career backup goalie. Lol.

    If a tree falls in the woods and no one’s heard of this guy does his opinion on Ed make a sound?

    I could swear he's trying to talk to me

    Who cares about any of this and I could see Ed doing that back then! I believe he might be a bit different now

    I heard Eddie thought they were offering to send nudes around, so he politely declined.

    It would be cool if the band or Eddie met this guy years later. Sorry about that Noodles. :lol:

    LOL

    A couple of things to note for the non Canadians who don't know the show. 1) This isn't the first time he complained about this - the day of the pearl jam show in Toronto last year (where this show is from) the main guy, Bryan Hayes (who is definitely a fan) was jazzed about them being in town, to which Noodles immediately complained about that incident. 2) Noodles is a big fan and also a friend of the guys in Nickelback, so not being a pearl jam fan makes sense haha.

    I thought it was Noodles, the internet dog that dresses up and works in an office.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.
