    The whole purpose of Ohana is raising awareness of and support for an explicitly political project

    Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with how we’re forced to think and talk about politics 24/7 these days. When I’m feeling that way, I find someplace I can be alone, draw the curtains, light some candles, make myself a cup of tea, and start a thread titled “no politics please” on an internet message board.
    Haha, great post!!

    They’ve always been vocal about issues, if you don't like it don't go to their shows.

    I have traveled many miles to hear some great music and enjoy one of the best festivals around.  Is it too much to ask EV to sing not preach?  Politics is blasted at us daily, this weekend should be a nice break from it.  To those of you who will give me the standard "Pearl Jam has always been vocal about issues, if you don't like it don't go to their shows" - that is a ridiculous statement so don't bother posting.  I have been listening to PJ longer than you have been alive.
    I know I shouldn't stereotype or assume anything... but everytime I read a post like this I think to myself:

    "Oh look, another republican Pearl Jam fan... see, they do exist!"
    Take a look back through their post history. Bingo

    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    Do your best to focus on the music if it bothers you. That is the focal point of a PJ show anyway.

    The reel to reel bootleg of that 1969 show was fucking sick.
    Thanks to SS for sharing that.

    Where would we be without fans who've been listening to Pearl Jam since before we were alive.

    Going to public spaces and not being affected by the current sociopolitical climate and a recent very unpopular decision that was made by the Supreme Court is unfortunately a privilege less and less people have these days.

    Women having bodily autonomy shouldn’t be “political”. Reasonable gun control laws to keep our kids safe shouldn’t be “political”. They’re really not saying anything that isn’t totally agreeable for anyone with a shred of empathy. Just spreading love and community.
