[…] me some live music. Doesn’t matter the genre — just this year alone I’ve seen Pearl Jam, Erykah Badu and the Roots, Robert Randolph opening for Eric Clapton, the Dave Matthews Band, […]

Pearl Jam is so awesome. Even though I barely listen to mainstream current rock (I’m more of an underground rock fan, with the exception of classic rock and 90s alternative lol), they still rock my world. And that whole “black people dont listen to/play rock music is a load of crap. I will always love my rock n roll no matter what anyone says! \m/

I know this post is a little late but I just have to say…that I am SO HAPPY that I’m not the only one out there who likes rock! I loved the Red Hot Chili Peppers & Faith No More!

I like PJ’s first album. The debut records tend to be the best. Since then, I’ve lost touch with them. PJ was ahead of their time as far as being political. I do remember PJ’s public losing battle with Ticketmaster and the brouhaha that ensued. Perhaps that’s the reason they’ve remained more on the fringe of things in the last 10-15 years that “grunge” has blown off the radar.

Like you mentioned,all these big money making bands have broken up or imploded and yet PJ’s still trucking. Nirvana, Soundgarden, Hole, Screaming Trees, Smashing Pumpkins, Blind Melon, Alice in Chains struggling after Layne Staley OD’d in 2002. So who was the better band after all?

I’m a huge rock and Seattle Grunge fan too–I love PJ. I never hid my love for rock, grunge and alternative music–heck, for one thing I didn’t *care* who knew, and then, I never really had enough friends growing up for it to matter anyway. I love blasting PJ and others when I’m working in my studio.

NOW, one of my faves they categorize as “Seattle Grunge wannabes” is Creed. I don’t care what they say, I LOVE Creed. Scott Stapp might have his issues, hehe, but Creed is awesome!

I also love Def Leppard… Oh, and Aerosmith…

I love Pearl Jam!
But I am more of a Classic Rock girl.
Allman Brothers, Boston, Spirit, ELP, etc.
I like to rock out to “Alive.”

I grew up in a household where my folks played everything from Barbra Streisand to Paliament & Funkadelic, so I was destined to have diverse tast in music. I rocked Pearl Jam & Nirvana in high school. I will always have a special place in my heart for STP–I feel the same way about Scott Weiland as I feel about Amy Winehouse–amazing talent, just hoping they can get themselves together in time.

Thanks for cracking open the alternative closet. I never got into pearl jam but I was aware of all the bands of that era. Smashing Pumpkins,STP, and Soundgarden being my favourites. Some of those songs are classic…
