hehe, cool. it's funny how some of them are starting to look really old while others barely have aged at all.

theis · Sep 25, 2009, 02:49 PM

Yeah. Jeff and Eddie basically look like they did in '92.

In France, the New album in CD give the opportunity to Download two "live Bootlegs"
(unfortunatly !!! i bought the vinyl version without this possibility: the disk didn't want to enter in my computer).

Did someone know what bootlegs is it ? Did somone download them ?

Really enjoying the album atm BUT I have to say I prefered the demo version of 'Speed of Sound' and that 'Just Breathe' sounds like 'Tuolumne' from the 'Into the Wild' OST, still a great song though.

Hopefully we'll get some decent european tour dates soon!!

Jacob · Sep 25, 2009, 07:12 PM

are they even touring europe these days?

I'm liking the new album more and more. but the self-titled is still growing on me and I gotta say it's not in my top 3. Ten > No Code > s/t

theis · Sep 25, 2009, 10:55 PM

Weird.

Vs. and Vitalogy are without a doubt my two favoite PJ albums.

Jacob · Sep 26, 2009, 03:19 PM

actually it's really hard for me to rank their albums because I love all of them (well, except for Riot Act which I stil like a lot, but will probably always be my least favorite). but Ten got me into them and will always be number one. and I listened a lot to No Code during a specific time of my life and it's a very nostalgic album for me. and like I said, lately I've really fallen in love with the self-titled. but yeah, Vs and Vitalogy are both incredibly awesome too.

theis · Sep 26, 2009, 07:20 PM

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Binaural and Riot Act are the only PJ albums where I don't remember how the songs sound like just by looking at the titles. I need to give them a better chance. Still quality albums though.

Jacob · Sep 27, 2009, 08:39 PM

same here. Binaural is actually really really good though. and it was during the tour for that album I saw them live, so it's a bit special for that reason too. it's just... I dunno, kinda different from their other stuff. I think it has a lot to do with the production actually. something doesn't sound 100% to me.

theis · Sep 29, 2009, 12:05 PM

Wow, I guess Vedder still sounds FANTASTIC live.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

mr.sinister · Sep 30, 2009, 06:42 AM

Sounds awesome. My friend is seeing them tomorrow.

Jacob · Sep 30, 2009, 07:29 AM

the new songs seem to work well live. I'd really like to see them again.

fucking hell, seems like they're skipping Sweden again.

I might actually go abroad to see them this summer if that's what it takes.

I hate you.

while I've seen them live before, I really feel I need one more show to make up for Roskilde. the Stockholm show was great, almost magical. but I still remember more from Roskilde and I just can't have that with one of my favorite bands.
