    If you're bothered by this, but wouldn't be bothered about people talking about, say, Joni Mitchell on a Pearl Jam message board, then you need to get more familiar with the work of these younger artists.
    Let's be real, the artists he named are straight trash. Awful music.
    Going to the super lovely Taylor Swift concert on sunday. Will be mega lovely and then even more lovely 64.

    I think Dua Lipa is pretty cool in terms of pop artists.  But I wouldn't expect her to be discussed in the Pearl Jam forum.
    Hope you enjoy your concerts though.  Fun times with multiple awesome tours going on.  I'm excited only one week until I see Pearl Jam in LA.  Oops, gotta put it in complaint form...  I have to wait a whole week to see Pearl Jam live.

    You're not actually being real. Your opinion is actually outside the mainstream. These are critically acclaimed and massively commercial successful artists. It's O.K. that you don't like them, but calling them "straight trash" is objectively ridiculous.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    Dua Lipa is fantastic. But, again, why wouldn't you expect other musical artists to be discussed here. Pearl Jam themselves routinely talk about other artists, including Eddie and Jeff both recently talking publicly about Taylor Swift, for whom they had only praise.

    Maybe they have to do it again to get it right. (haha)

    Based on what exactly? Greedy, pollutes the planet with her completely unnecessary private jet use, and makes terrible corporate music. What a gem!

    Not a fan of hers. But she gave out $55 mm in bonuses to her tour workers. Six figure bonus? That doesn't spell greed to me. Thats life changing generosity.

    I think they were 100k. Hardly life changing, but certainly a nice chunk of change. Even after the tax man………

    I didn't say I don't expect other artists.  I said I don't expect other pop artists.  I'd fully expect same genre discussions

    I didn't think if you drew a venn diagram of Pearl Jam fans and Dua Lipa fans there would be any overlap but seems like there's at least 1 person
