I love mid-era Pearl Jam- from Vitalogy, No Code, Yield, Binaural, up to Riot Act. I thought they started getting complacent beginning with the Blue Album and Lightning Bolt is where they lost me completely. Its basically a Vedder solo record with a few singles on front end. Great live shows though. I think they've lost their edge creatively though.
I had similar feelings about Lightning Bolt but it's actually starting to grow on me the last few weeks. Yellow Moon definitely sounds like it was lifted from the Into the Wild soundtrack, though.
Only saw them once, but they're fuckin' great. They sort of do the Stones/ACDC thing now, make a record with 2-3 songs you can justify playing in concert, make that the excuse to tour, and do it. Fine by me, though, they're a hell of a live act.
Saw Ed do a guest spot with the Who in Chicago back in May. That was something special.
I bet that was sweet. Neil Young coming out for Keep on Rockin' in the Free World the first night I saw PJ was epic.

I didn't know the Brits were into interspecies erotica.

Probably my favorite band after Guns' and without question one of the best live acts going today. Anyone else a fan?
Sadly I've only seen them twice as tickets can be mindblowingly hard to get, but I did back-to-back nights for the Ten 20th Anniversary Tour in Toronto and both shows were simply incredible, plus I ran into Edge from the WWE on the second night in the beer line. Their first 4 albums are probably their best and my favorites but I've honestly never met a Pearl Jam song or album I didn't like.

tl;dr
nuGNR ended when Buckethead left.
Nope.
It ended the minute BH was hired. That's when fakegnr became a complete joke.
Nope
it ended when Izzy left
But Izzy says it ended when Steven left.

Cowboys could probably trade Brandon Carr to the Steelers for Michael Vick if they really want a QB to hold down the fort.

Did converse ever sell these shoes to the public?
I don't think so, but they should have.

Any release is fine by me. Don't really care about the how.

Kane's girlfriend apparently is standing by him
Good for Jagr. Girls like that probably keep him young at heart and productive on the ice.

LOL, I thought of you as soon as DHB landed that epic TD from Big Ben
The Redskins could conceivably win the NFC East now between Bradford playing hilariously bad and the Cowboys' injury woes.

Go Steelers!!

One would think a talented guy like Richard could've learned Buckethead's parts by now.
-
Without Richard Fortus there would be no more Guns N' Roses.

Looks pretty decent. Hope this is a sign that Johnny Depp has gotten off the Nicolas Cage career path he seemed to be on.

Twat is so overrated. Still trying to find all this epicness it's supposed to have.
Axl's vocals along with Robin and Buckethead's guitar work would be a good place to start.

Heck of a game between Seattle and St. Louis. Glad the Rams pulled it out. Got a great defense and it looks like Foles is the real deal at QB. I'm gonna enjoy this last season in St. Louis, because the Rams will be playing in LA next year. And St. Louis will never get a football team again.
I'm very happy my Steelers will have Bell back from suspension when they play the Rams in 2 weeks
As am I because I drafted him in fantasy
I guess we shouldn't be surprised he was suspended when he looks stoned out of his mind in his NFL profile pic
Haha! Did you see Dan Bailey's?
Speaking of the Steelers, do you think Wheaton is gonna have a big game this week? I need another WR on my fantasy, just in case Hilton is out this week. (Fucking waiver wire, I put in a claim for both Moncrief and CJ2k and didn't get either...)
I actually have a feeling that Darius Heyward-Bey is going to be Ben's #2 until Bryant is back from his suspension.

I love them pretty much equally, but I've always tended to go with II since it has 4 epics on it while UYI I only has 2.
-
And I thought his fear of bad booking was one the reasons he didn't end up signing with WWE over the years? lol

Reminds me of Wilson from Cast Away with Tom Hanks.

Guns N’ Roses‘ Use Your Illusion records collectively represent one of the more impressively ambitious hard rock statements of the ’90s, but what if you could only keep one of them?
That’s the question we’re posing during this installment of Clash of the Titans, which forces you to choose between the two volumes of Axl Rose‘s magnum opus. This isn’t the first time we’ve sought your help in whittling down Illusion‘s epic 30-song length: In a previous poll, readers curated their own 14-track single-disc edition of the albums as a counterpart to the 12-track edited version that was shipped to retail chains reluctant to carry the complete (and potentially offensive) releases. But this time, instead of altering the running order, you have to pick between Illusion‘s halves.
The first volume, which debuted at No. 2 on the charts, contains 16 songs adding up to more than 75 minutes of music, including the singles “Don’t Cry,” “Live and Let Die” and “November Rain.” Volume two, which debuted at No. 1 and ultimately ended up selling slightly more copies, spawned five singles: “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door,” “Yesterdays,” “Civil War,” “Estranged” and the Terminator 2: Judgment Day-associated “You Could Be Mine.”
But sales and singles tell only part of the story — and given that Use Your Illusion was assembled as a cohesive statement split in two, each volume expresses a facet of GNR’s evolution to that point, from songs written early in their history (“Don’t Cry,” which appears on both volumes) to epic-length sonic workouts (Illusion I‘s 10-minute “Coma”; Illusion II‘s nine-minute-plus “Estranged”). Each volume also includes a cover, with Paul McCartney‘s “Live and Let Die” surfacing on Illusion I and Bob Dylan‘s “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” on Illusion II.
Each volume has its highlights, but only one can emerge victorious from this Clash of the Titans match-up. Which one gets your vote? Check out both albums below, and remember: You can return to the polls once every hour. This Clash of the Titans will stay open until Sept. 20, 2015, at 11:59PM ET.

Wow! That is an incredible setlist. Check out the one from my very first show
I honestly think No Code is their most overlooked album. Very raw production and I find incredibly eclectic compared to Yield.
As a whole, I probably like Vs. better than Ten.
