:ehright:

edit: Do you mean a really good one (in your opinion of course, cuz PJ blows IMO) or do you wish they acutally put out an album that sounded like PJ?
no i meant make one of the best albums late in their career. I love pearl jam's "ten" but i think their new one is a more mature and better album. I though stand up was very mediocre. In fact, i like everyday a lot more.

I saw PJ in Detroit a month ago. It was a great show. Really long.

I went not being really into Pearl Jam (I had free tickets). After I left thinking that it was better than the last two DMB shows I saw.

I agree with the point about the fan club. Warehouse is screwed up beyond belief right now. They needed to cap membership at a certain point so that there was a distinct advantage to being a member. It annoys me to no end.

I think the first idea is really cool. It not only gives money to the band, but it also helps fans to get the shows easily and with high quality. At the end of the day, everybody would benefit from it.
And I think it's not a big deal to implement it. But well, you never know what the guys think.

BTW, I've always loved Ten and Vitology.

yeah i def like the first idea too.

Im not sure if any other bands do this but i have been to 4 or 5 moe. shows that you had the chance to get an "Instant Live" which means you buy a special ticket before the show and than directly after the show you wait in line for your soundboard copy.

not to bad considering you get to hear the show for a second time on the way home

They supposedly had contracted with nugs to do this before the '03 tour (and registered livedmb.com), but it just disappeared and they never did anything with it.
