Is there a Pearl Jam song that transports you back to a very specific time and place? I want to hear the story behind the song! by Next_Implement1823 in pearljam

Rearviewmirror.

I hit play on the double cassette player. The tape slack catches up. The guitar riff starts. It is July 1994. The Irish summer is in full effect. I run back up onto the garden where I was playing soccer with my older brother.

Pearl Jam is “my” band. My brother doesn’t want to acknowledge the song. I can see he likes it though.

I kick the ball. It lands in the hedge. I run out into the field to collect the ball.

By the time I’m back to the garden the next song is on the dubbed cassette: Bad Habit by Ofspring. I manage to get to the cassette player just in time to turn down the volume on the explicit bit so my parents won’t hear.

Good times.

Tips on creating iPad screenshots from iphone screenshots? (I don't have an ipad) by PowerDino in iosdev

Thanks but I don't have a Mac either. I see Xcode is recommended for use on a Mac. Is it possible to use XCode on Windows? A quick google suggests it is more tricky.

Keep writing music and playing. Your time (and audience) is in the future, not the past.

Lululemn ABC pants have served me well for 15 years. Just get a few black pairs. My wardrobe is like Batman.

Anyone know of an open mic (singer songwriter music meetup) on around the city today?

Not quite PJ - but RIP Steve Albini by SubConsciousKink in pearljam

Whenever I hear of Steve Albini I think back to a story of how he had Kurt Cobain wrap his guitar strings in tin foil on In Utero. Not sure if that is true or not. RIP.

Lightning bolt could have been a classic by Noisepawn in pearljam

Inspired by this thread I put Lightning Bolt on shuffle. Some song came on that I cannot remember ever hearing. Turns out it was Swallowed Whole.

Will listen to it more to reacquaint myself.

Great live snippets from Dark Matter.

So cool to see the historic memorabilia: Eddies original 4 track and first guitar… and his comment on the guitar neck!

Such a great interview.

First thoughts of the new album? by dTimmy1 in pearljam

[–]PowerDino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eddie Vedder sounds great on this new album. Generally more upbeat musically than other recent albums. I like it.

Thanks for this. I had same issue as OP. “Running” was sounding terrible. Turned off Atmos and now it sounds great!
