  • Political Pearl Jam Raises Pepsi Center Roof
    Political Pearl Jam raises Pepsi Center roof The Gazette (Colorado Springs, CO) April 3, 2003 | ROBIN A. ROTHMAN; THE GAZETTE It was 11 p.m. when the house lights came up Tuesday at the Pepsi Center, but the guys in Pearl Jam weren't ready to vacate the stage. They weren't concerned that they were 15 minutes past curfew. After all, it was the start of their 2003 U.S. tour and they had barely begun the third song of their second encore. The crowd was equally determined to "Keep on Rockin' in the Free World" for at least a few more minutes. The song, both in performance and in sentiment - "Take to the streets! Raise your voice!" - was a powerful ending to a night of varied content and mixed response. Amply sprinkled with tunes from their latest release, "Riot Act," the set list adequately represented the group's catalog, but the selection was clearly geared toward those fans dedicated enough to own albums after the debut "Ten" and follow-up "Vs." "Love Boat Captain," a touching tribute to the nine fans trampled when the band played in Denmark in 2000, opened the show slow and steady at 8:45 p.m. with the borrowed idea that "All you need is love." "Corduroy" and "Better Man" were obvious crowd-pleasers, and unsurprisingly those rare, older, bigger hits like "Even Flow," "Porch" and "Daughter" prompted sing-alongs. "I see you're into the song," frontman Eddie Vedder improvised during "Black," tying it in as if it were a standard lyric.

  • Sulla Storia Della Nascita Dei Pearl Jam C'è Molto Di Più Di Quanto È
    Sulla storia della nascita dei Pearl Jam c’è molto di più di quanto è sempre stato raccontato. Per scoprirlo ho intervistato Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament, Matt Cameron, Chris Cornell e altri attori chiave, ho ripescato manufatti originali del 1990 e ho dato la caccia a registrazioni rare, ho triangolato dati e messo insieme ogni fatto. Per celebrare il ventesimo compleanno dei Pearl Jam, sono orgogliosa di presentare il frutto di oltre 10 anni di minuziosa ricerca originale. Fate un bricco di caffè, accendete la stampante e preparatevi ad una lunga e avvincente lettura ricca di dettagli inediti sugli eventi del 1990, l’anno in cui una serie di magiche e selvagge coincidenze portarono all’unione di un improbabile gruppo di persone che diventarono i PEARL JAM. Jessica Letkemann, ottobre 2010 INVERNO Il nuovo decennio era iniziato in maniera radiosa per il ventitreenne Stone Gossard, il ventiseienne Jeff Ament e i loro compagni dei Mother Love Bone. Il primo album della band, Apple, stava per uscire, il manager Kelly Curtis stava organizzando un tour che sarebbe partito ad aprile, subito dopo l’uscita del disco, e il frontman Andy Wood non stava usando droghe. Il loro primo concerto del 1990 si teneva due giorni dopo capodanno (cinque giorni prima del ventiquattresimo compleanno di Andy) al Vogue, il piccolo club che da allora ha le parole MOTHER LOVE BONE dipinte sulla facciata dell’edificio. La band, speranzosa ed emozionata, era sostenuta inoltre, come fece notare Andy dal palco, dalla nascita della prima figlia di Kelly, avvenuta poco prima, quello stesso giorno.

Jadranka Zlomislić Osijek, 2014. Korać 2 Abstract This paper explores grunge, a music genre that developed in Seattle, Washington during the 1990s. The aim is to show how grunge contributed to changes primarily in the American society as it moved from underground to mainstream and became a primary pop cultural movement in the 90s. It also became a subculture which has its special characteristics like a certain way of dressing, behaving etc. The paper follows the evolution of grunge from its beginning in the 1980s. Thanks to Sub Pop, an independent record label, and its creators Jonathan Poneman and Bruce Pavitt and their sense for business and self-promotion, grunge moved from underground to mainstream at the beginning of the 1990s with Nirvana’s album Nevermind as a landmark and their single “Smells like Teen Spirit” as the anthem of the Generation X. Furthermore, the paper explores how musicians engaged in different aspects of society like politics, campaigning and activism and how grunge became an essential part of fashion statements and different forms of art such as movies.

  • Foreword Be a Legend
    Foreword Be a Legend o matter who you are or what you do, you can be a rock star when it comes to conserving NNature. I am a musician, and have found ways to put my skills to use for the Earth. My band, Pearl Jam, offset its carbon emissions by protecting a forest in Madagascar. I have also recently written a song and teamed up with Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers to produce a music video to benefit sea turtle and marine conservation. Through my involvement with music and conservation, I have come to know all kinds of amazing people. But it wasn’t until I met Mr. Leatherback, a shy guy doing some The fate of sea turtles, the global pretty un-shy things to save his kind, that I truly understood marine environment, and humanity the essence of being a legend. I look at the world through a rock-and-roll lens, and the way I see it, Mr. Leatherback are all inextricably tied to the choices is pure rock genius. He embodies the qualities of great rock we make today. legends like the ones who have inspired me all my life; it’s these same qualities that can make any of us a conserva- tion legend. The first quality is a mad desperation for success. True legends do whatever it takes, pushing beyond the constraints of social norms and personal inhibitions, to get the job done and have their message heard. Moreover, legends aren’t afraid to flaunt their special talents for the cause.

  • Pearl Jam's Ten and the Road to Authenticity Introduction
    ‘I know someday you'll have a beautiful life': Pearl Jam's Ten and the road to authenticity Introduction Pearl Jam’s debut album is a special and important record in the context of both the alternative music grunge phenomenon of the 1990s and the band’s own growth as important rock musicians and artists in the subsequent twenty years. Indeed for many, Pearl Jam’s debut album, together with Nirvana’s Nevermind, is synonymous with the word grunge itself. The album is a seminal work that marked the mainstream breakthrough of guitarist Stone Gossard and bassist Jeff Ament, the founding members of grunge pioneers Green River and so has an important place in the genealogy of Seattle rock. It remains a commercial and critical success, selling nearly ten million copies, and being certified platinum thirteen times. It regularly features in ‘best of’ lists in the music press and popular journalism1. However, the commercial success of Pearl Jam and other bands from the region such as Nirvana, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains, raised questions about the authenticity of grunge as a musical style since it had initially presented itself as an underground and unreservedly alternative movement that shunned mainstream acceptance. Furthermore, the album’s highly polished style and intricate production did not sit comfortably with critics who claimed it was not faithful to a simpler, pared back ‘grunge sound’. The success and all of its associated trappings pushed the band into a position where they recognised the album as an emblem of inauthenticity. It was this very inauthenticity that later Pearl Jam albums and the band’s actions rallied against in subsequent years.

  • Place and Punk: the Heritage Significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West
    Place and Punk: The heritage significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West William Kenneth Smith MA By Research University of York Archaeology May 2017 Abstract Academic institutions and the heritage industry are now actively seeking to understand the wider social, cultural and economic processes which surround the production and consumption of popular music histories. Music is a local creation; it is created through a flux of internal and external influences, and is bound up in questions of economy, networks, art, identity and technology. In the early 1990s the Pacific North West of the United States of America gave birth to what became known as the musical genre of ‘grunge’. It developed into a distinctive genre, presenting a style and sound which propagated within the confines of a specific time and place. As construction sites continue to emerge throughout the Pacific North West, the impact of music still provides an essential contribution to the regions character and culture. Despite this, countercultural pasts are vulnerable; not only to the passage of time but also the processes of development, gentrification and marginalization. This research explores the heritage significance of the Pacific North West punk scene. It presents a historiography of punk and an appraisal of the scholarly discourse surrounding place. This study utilizes artifacts, sites and oral histories to explore countercultural material and memories as well as the form and function of punk. Themes such as geography and environment are enfranchised into the discussion as ethnography and multidisciplinary approaches are applied to make a unique contribution to what is an essential and timely discussion regarding people, culture, heritage and place.

  • Ten 35 Novels and Are Work- Ing on a Streak of 43 Consecutive No
    ARAB TIMES, THURSDAY, APRIL 29, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Books Publisher pulls Roth bio John Grisham pens a basketball thriller By Rob Merrill ooley,’ by John Grisham (Doubleday) ‘S When you’ve written 35 novels and are work- ing on a streak of 43 consecutive No. 1 New York Times bestsellers, you can write about whatever you want. That’s probably the simplest way to explain why John Grisham’s latest is a basketball story and doesn’t feature a single courtroom scene. It’s not the fi rst sports book for Grisham, of course, but it’s the fi rst set in the big-time world of college hoops. Samuel Sooleymon, nicknamed Sooley, is a 17-year-old playing on dirt courts in his native South Sudan when we fi rst meet him. Growing like a weed and with an infectious passion for the game, soon he’s in Orlando playing on a team of traveling Sudanese all-stars, showcasing his skills for col- lege coaches. The joy of a Grisham novel is turning the pages as the plot propels you forward, so I’ll avoid revealing too much. Suf- fi ce it to say “Sooley” follows the familiar Grisham playbook - short chapters, plenty of fore- shadowing, and a rapid-fi re Grisham prose that’s easy to read and hard to put down. Grisham seems to enjoy moonlighting as a sportswriter. There are entire paragraphs that read like AP game recaps: “Central ripped off a 14-0 run and led by 15 at the half... Sooley grabbed 11 rebounds, Pearl Jam members, from left, Mike McCready, Matt Cameron, Eddie Vedder, Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard appear at a news conference in Mexico City, on July for his fi rst double-double..
