Pearl Jam to headline Lollapolloza

Link

Pearl Jam will return to its Lollapalooza roots by serving as one of the headliners for the 2007 edition of the event, which will be held Aug. 3-5 in the city's Grant Park. The news was first reported by the Chicago Sun-Times and confirmed by sources to Billboard.com.

Pearl Jam's rise to fame was cemented by its performances on the 1992 Lollapalooza tour, which was concurrent with the ascent of its debut album, "Ten." Frontman Eddie Vedder hails from the Chicago suburb Evanston and has frequently made special appearances solo and with the band in the Windy City.

The Lollapalooza date is expected to be part of a handful of North American shows on the back of a previously announced European tour that begins June 8 in Lisbon.

As previously reported, Pearl Jam, which toured extensively last year in support of its self-titled debut for J Records, will release a new cover of the Who's "Love Reign O'er Me" in the upcoming Adam Sandler film "Reign Over Me." The song was also featured on the band's annual holiday single for fan club members.

The full Lollapalooza lineup isn't expected to be announced for several weeks.

Still nothing from the 10C, but .

Also...

Ed to Induct R.E.M. into the Rock & Roll Hall

R.E.M., Van Halen, Grandmaster Flash, Patti Smith and the Ronettes make the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and will be inducted live in New York, March 12 on VH1 Classic starting at 8:30pm. Ed will be inducting R.E.M. as he has previously inducted such legends as the Doors, the Ramones and Neil Young.

PJ = Lock.Is R.E.M. that good? Never got into them much and thought some of their pop songs were lame (Stand, etc).

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Yeah, as soon as it is confirmed I am all over Lollapalooza...

Saw PJ at Lollapalooza in 1992, don't know how the last 15 years went by so fast!

I was thinking about that the other day. It's been a great ride. One could only hope for more. It's not like we're talking about "dimishing skills" here. At this point though you have to be realistic and think tour to tour (or album to album). I remember back in the Yield days my one buddy was saying it would be their last (b/c of All Those Yesterdays, last song on disc), then the same with Binural (b/c of Parting Ways). I kept saying no way, they have at least ten years left. Now were approaching that timeframe.Also thinking, how will the McCready/Gossard tandem (or just McCready) go down in history? Was listening to Paris 2000 this morning and couldn't help but notice how f'ing great they are. The quality of that cd is low so I focused in on them and it's a strange set if you ask me (God's Dice, Evacuation, Pilate, Light Years, etc).

IMO, they are truely setting themselves up to be one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Now you don't have to like all of their music, but you really have to respect what they've accomplished as musicians. 15 years as a rock band is ridiculous. Just look how far they've outlived their "grunge" contemporaries.Their music arguably has gotten better over time, which you can't say about many bands. Live performances are still top notch. Obviously, I'm biased, but you can't argue that they have maintained musical success for 15 years. Not many artists at all can say this.I know the Stones still tour, but have they really released anything significant in the past 20 years?

I've always felt that McCready/Gossard were underrated (especially mike)...I think this last album really helped get them some good (and deserved) pub (it's guitar heavier than the last couple)...They were listed in Rolling Stone's "New Guitar Gods" issue, and I've seen them on several best guitarists of... lists in various magazines, websites, publiations, etc...As far as how long they have left, I think this new album/tour reinvigorated them somewhat...Not just critically/commercially, but musically...I think they'll be around a bit more (6-10 years??), maybe touring with a bit less frequency...

Based on what criteria? We're all biased PJ fans here, but if I was to look at PJ with the same thinking I look at the Stones, what have PJ done since Vitalogy? Have any of their albums sold a million copies since then?Don't get me wrong, PJ is by far my favorite band, but I think a lot of us are a little too wrapped up in the greatness of PJ and don't realize that most of the music world doesn't agree with us.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Here's David Fricke's Rolling Stone review of the last album...Totally spot on, IMO...Fricke knows his stuff, aslo...One of the RS guys I don't have to take an opinion with a grain of slt...

Wartime, for everything else that's wrong with it, brings out the best in Pearl Jam: the power-chord brawn, contrary righteousness and metallic-KO songwriting sense. The band's second and third albums, 1993's bluntly titled Vs. and 1994's Vitalogy, are as good as modern rock-in-opposition gets: shotgun guitars, incendiary bass and drums, and Eddie Vedder's scalded-dog howl, all discharged in backs-to-the-wall fury and union.This album, Pearl Jam's first studio release in four years and their best in ten, is more of that top electric combat.

With a difference. The Pearl Jam on Pearl Jam is not the band that famously responded to overnight platinum by going to war with the world. Vedder, guitarists Stone Gossard and Mike McCready, bassist Jeff Ament and drummer Matt Cameron are now fully at war in the world, unrepentant veterans of the campaign trail (the Vote for Change Tour) and right-wing crucifixion (the "Bushleaguer" uproar) who have made the most overtly partisan -- and hopeful -- record of their lives. For Vedder, the 2004 election was not a total loss. "Why swim the channel just to get this far?/Halfway there, why would you turn around?" he demands in the first song, "Life Wasted," in a ragged, run-on bark. And it's all forward ho from there. As immediate and despairing as breaking news from Baghdad -- "World Wide Suicide" opens with a newspaper casualty report -- Pearl Jam is also as big and brash in fuzz and backbone as Led Zeppelin's Presence.

That's not just rock-critic shorthand. However you define grunge music, Pearl Jam didn't play it. They were, from jump street, a classic rock band, building their bawl with iron-guitar bones and an arena-vocal lust that came right from Zeppelin, early-Seventies Who and mid-Eighties U2 (with distortion instead of the Edge's glass-guitar harmonics). But Pearl Jam have not been this consistently dirty and determined in the studio since they subbed for Crazy Horse on Neil Young's 1995 Mirror Ball. I own two complete tours' worth of Pearl Jam's official-bootleg concert CDs, and this record's five-song blastoff ("Life Wasted," "World Wide Suicide," "Comatose," "Severed Hand" and "Marker in the Sand") is right up there in punch and crust with my favorite nights in that live series (Seattle, 11/6/00, and New Orleans, 4/8/03, to name two). And whenever the guitars take over, which is a lot -- Gossard and McCready's slugging AC/DC-like intro to "Life Wasted"; McCready's wild wah-wah ride in "Big Wave"; the way he cracks Vedder's gloom in "Parachutes" like heat lightning -- it reminds me that Gossard and McCready deserved to be on our 2003 "Greatest Guitarists" list. Permit me to admit it here: I screwed up.

That's more confession than you'll ever hear in the Bush White House. But talk-show pit bulls will be disappointed to find that Vedder doesn't waste his breath naming names here, except for a glancing reference to "the president" in "World Wide Suicide." There is blame, but it's spread all around. "Now you got both sides/Claiming killing in God's name/But God is nowhere to be found, conveniently," Vedder sings in "Marker in the Sand," from inside Gossard and McCready's crossfire and the saturation bombing of Ament and Cameron. There is dread too -- lots of it. "Army Reserve" is a midtempo elegy for the real Army Reserve, the wives and children who serve in worry, behind the lines. (The dark harmonies crowding Vedder's low, grainy vocal feel like ghosts in waiting.) And "Unemployable" is just half a story, with a soaring-melancholy chorus. The song ends before the guy with the pink slip can find a new job. But Vedder's opening scene -- the fist with the ring that says jesus saves, flying with helpless anger into a metal locker -- is lesson enough. In multinational capitalism run riot, the bottom line doesn't care about religion or party line. We're all expendable.

And we're all accountable. The politics on Pearl Jam are not those of right or left but of engagement and responsibility. In "Life Wasted," Vedder at least partly mocks his old self, the one that wore success and the leverage that came with it like sackcloth: "Darkness comes in waves, tell me/Why invite it to stay?" But there is only determined optimism in Pearl Jam's superb finish, "Inside Job." The song starts quietly, then climbs and peaks like a combination of "Stairway to Heaven" and the Who's "The Song Is Over" -- a mirror image of Vedder's stumble through each line from night into light. "I will not lose my faith," he promises under thunderclap guitars, with such assurance that even if you don't agree with anything else on this record, you believe him.

Note the bolded part about Mike/Stone

I was asking a question about the Stones and using them as an example as a band that likely appears to tour for the money moreso than the music. I could be completely wrong, but that's the impression that I get. Also referring to music and not album sales. I can't remember where the Stones albums have been musically appreciated in recent years. Self Titled, Yield and No Code have all been acclaimed even though record sales might not show it.

Very interesting article.

 

[Bobcat10]

Anyone see the airing of the RnR HOF introductions? Ed did a solid job, as always. Ed sang Man on the Moon with REM which also aired. It was a great version IMO. I've always liked that song. Cool when towards the end Stipe sang the "hey ya" part that Ed was singing throughout the song and Stipe kinda laughed to Mills right afterwards.

Very true. If anyone wants a good laugh, head over the Message Pit, as there is a frenzy of arguments as to whether this is the only US date or not. I am a fan from the very beginning, but some of these folks truly need a life of their own.

Very nice. Beats my 6-disc nonsense. Even has Arc!

I think JZilla generously sent out a compilation, but not sure if this was posted:

GREEN HABIT: A COMPREHENSIVE LIVE PEARL JAM COMPILATION

This project contains 10 CDs worth of live Pearl Jam material. Included in this compilation is a version

of every original song they have played live, as well as most of the covers they have performed live.

The Pearl Jam community has been blessed over their years with a tremendous wealth of live material. It

has come in many forms, from several audience recordings to FM broadcasts to official bootlegs released by

the band itself. This project is an attempt to give you the cream of the crop from these recordings.

Thanks for the link. Pretty good quality or what?

Looks like it.

Soundboard or FM recordings took priority unless no such recording existed for a certain song.

Plus it's in FLAC which is lossless, and you know they're going to look for great versions.I'm not as familiar with their later songs as most of you, so I have to figure out how to narrow this down to a couple CDs. Besides some of the stuff from Ten, Long Road was one of my favorites (not sure where that stands in people's hierarchy). I'd appreciate any suggestions of your favorite songs.

It's all pre-06, so it could easily be made into 11 discs now.

Gonna download this when I get home. I have an iBook that I am just learning about. Is there anything I need to do first to get this done? Or will it be as simple as clicking that download button? Thanks.I'm gonna hafta count how many of those songs I actually saw live.

Are you familiar with bit torrent at all? You need a bt client (utorrent for example) and a Flac converter like Flac Frontend. If you like live music, these are good things to learn about anyway.

No, I don't know #### actually. It's time though. I'm just now transferring all the CD's I have to my iBook. Finally organizing all my music and stuff. So I guess the next step is learning how to steal, right?

Well it's not stealing when the band allows it. I'm not advocating downloading albums or anything.1. Get utorrent (standalone)

2. Get Flac frontend

there's your first two steps

Oh I was just joking (kinda). Thanks for the help. Fired up to get my music all situated.

Thanks, was gonna post this...Almost went to that show, last minute. Kinda glad I didn't though, as EV played for only about 40 minutes (both days right?), although I'm a big Jack fan as well.

Gonna hit the Chili Pepper/Vedder show/benefit this Saturday. Great (small) venue, too...Fonda Theatre. Couple of other bands as well... Woody Harrelson hosts...

Oh, and if any of you like Cornell, you should go to the KROQ website and download his interview/songs they did the other day. Sounded really good.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

Gonna try to make that Chris Cornell show tonight at the Avalon.
