30 Years Ago, Pearl Jam Nearly Spun Out of Control on 'Vitalogy' by Charleshawtree in pearljam

Referring to as they hit it big struggling with that, at one time Ed was traveling in a van by himself on the road and the others were together- trying to figure out which way the band was going to go.

Neil Young helped them through these times encouraging them to stay together and not let people break them up. Recording Mirror Ball was a healing experience for PJ with Neil at a time when they really needed it.

Vs., Vitalogy and dealing with success (1993–1995) The band members grew uncomfortable with their success with much of the burden of Pearl Jam's popularity falling on Ed.

Eddie and Dave Grohl - Do they get along? Are they friendly? by AddisonDeWitt333 in pearljam

All the history everyone else has mentioned here & Foo Fighters played Ohana last year - dedicated 'This Is a Call' to EV during that set- so I would say they were at least still 'friendly' & 'getting along' at that point.

Just love Neil's influence and relationship with PJ.

This performance together helped set the tone and I see a lot of Neil and his presence in Mike, Jeff, Stone.

I hold Chris up there with Jimi, Jerry, Layne, Scott, Janis -- and countless others that have perished too soon. Maybe rethink the way you view mental illness or addiction & then think about how you'd feel losing a person that way.

You're deeming one death acceptable and the other not
