awesome

Off I Go. · August 2004

Yes!! seeing it live is amazing ,I love it. So much feeling and truth ,Ed puts into it,I saw it at Sendai Japan on Feb 28th 2003!!!!
One of the happiest days of my life --It rates up there with the days my children were born on!!! Soooooooo Exciting !!
I cant wait for the chance to see them again ,either here in Japan or in the UK!!!!!

Still Here · August 2004

Saw 'Bu$hleaguer' performed live in Clarkston,MI at DTE Energy Music Theatre and about lost my fuckin' MIND!!! there's always a song or two that I'm looking forward to hearing live and the guys came through BIGtime! Anyone fortunate enough to see Pearl Jam play this song live is in fact very priveleged...I just hope it doesn't fall by the wayside...one of their most powerful songs on the album IMO...

'He's not a LEADER...he's a TEXAS LEAGUER...
swingin' for the fence...makes the job simple...
born on third, thinks he got a triple.
Blackout weaves its way through the city...
I remember when you sang that song about TODAY...
now it's TOMORROW...
and EVERYTHING has changed.'

LEAUGER LOVE! I love it!

Great posts Still Here, Off I Go!....I could not agree more. Such power to this song and it just transcends & soars beyond belief live. So intense.

Here's to many more live Leauger days....

It's songs like this that make me {{LOVE}} this band even more.

I had exactly the same reaction! The mask, omg, the mask, what a great accessory for a brilliant song. What an awesome night that was.

I think many Americans would be suprised at how supportive we (Canadians) are of the movement against Bu$h...not that we are the only ones of course... I am soooo looking forward to being a part of the Vote for Change tour. I love this band's 'politics', always have. Anyone who listened to Ed's live radio broadcasts in the, um, late 80s/early 90s, couldn't help but be moved by his passion for rights and freedoms and his compassion for all (not to mention the great music).

"Everything has changed, absolutely nothing's changed".

armsoutstretched & katellis, you guys got me thinking....

BOYS..>>>BRING BACK THE LEAGUER.....CANADA STYLE 2005!!!

Why not?

LEAGUE---IT----UP

Bu$hleague · June 2005

This song is fantastic, the poetic devices used are amazing, the riffs.. damn!, and the message.. kickass!

I'd LOVE to see them play it live when I head north of the border this fall.

VEDHEAD27 · June 2005

WOOOHOO!

Greetings fellow Leaguer lover!

Love the name.

Representing to the MAX.

Yeah I hear ya, this song is awesome. I swear, I wasn't even in the "FULL" know till I saw it live...then it was just OVER. SOLD! CAN I HAVE ANOTHER!? LOL! The song just takes it all to another level something fierce live! The message, the vibe, YES..>THAT RIFF< Looooove it!! Cathcy as HELL! Frickin Stoney man...he's unstoppable! And what Ed brings to the table is just classic. There's humor but also such power.

Said it before and I'll say it again........

***** ((((( Here's to many more live Leauger days ))))) ******

It's songs like this one that make this band what they are....THE BEST!

Bu$hleague · June 2005

I know what you're saying about it live... It's a bonus feature on the Live at the Garden DVD; and it's truly amazing.. especially with the George Bush mask with a cigarette hanging out of its mouth, and a red glow from it's eyes...

"A confidence man, so why so beleaguered? He's not a leader, he's a Texas leaguer..."

VEDHEAD27 · June 2005

OMG! YES! LOOOOOOVE THE MONTAGE!

As I said in a previous post...

These dance moves are hilarious. The things that man is doing to his body and that mask. LMAO!!! And that silver jacket?!!? Again, looooooovin it.

The one shot where Ed is in a blue t-shirt just doggin the hell outta the mask?!? LOL!! And then he goes from being mad, to completely digusted and then he just gives up and shakes his head in utter confusion. LOL! OMG it's the best!! Also love all the "impaled" close ups. haha.

YES!

THANK YOU PEARL JAM...for this song, for this montage...and for BEING YOURSELVES AND LETTING YOUR VOICES BE HEARD...regardless.

<< music=art=expression >>

The showbox version is awesome too! Hell...every damn version is! The magic is always present.

Seriously, can't praise the boys enough for this one.

If ya can't feel it and appreciate it....sorry for ya.

"Fuck the pessimists....fuck em"

STXLAX · June 2005

Seriously this is/was one of my favorite songs off of riot act. It really hooked my for some reason. Then again, the message is kinda silly...

Abookamongstthemany · June 2005

BUENA · September 2005

One of the best songs off of Riot Act.

Ladymelonhead · September 2005

I agree- its an absolutely awesome song definately one of my favourites, which i was so friggin happy to see live in T.O. back in 2003.

Riot Act is the king of all PJ albums.

Coming back to life · September 2005

I love this song too. I still hate Geroge Bu$h - his domestic policies, his attitude to climate change, he's still a prize A cunt for me and I'll always have time for this song.

Bu$hleaguer lovers.....
