I saw Pearl Jam last night...


I saw Pearl Jam last night on the Waterfront in Camden NJ last night. Excellent show. 2.5 hrs of blasting rock. Eddie Vedder's Cause now is to get wrongfully imprisoned prisoners freed. It bought the show to a grinding halt when he marched and paraded 3 ex cons around the stage. The band is one of the best out there. They blow away U2 and these other big name acts.

BTW, PJ closed the Camden concert with a strong cover of The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again-- reappropriating this anthem for my generation from #1 standing with the American Idol fans at National Review.

For anyone interested, here is the list of this week's beneficiaries of Pearl Jam's activism on this tour. The Innocence Project was on stage that particular night because they are located in the host city. Other nights might highlight the efforts of a local group that feeds the homeless, etc., with $1 per paid ticket going to each respective non-profit organization.

From the perspective of this self-serving, lazy, complainin' mofo, I'd have to applaud their contribution. And if I was an innocent in prison, I'd thank my lucky stars that someone on the outside gave a damn.
I thought everyone in prison was innocent!
That is true. And don't forget, everyone at the wheel is a good driver, all ex's are psychotic, and every audiophile has excellent hearing.
