I recently bought Ten as DLC on Rock Band 2. The album is a fuckin' blast to play! Some of them are also a real challange to play. Which makes it that much cooler to play and master!

I must admit that I never owned the album myself. Back in '92 when it came out, a friend of mine became a huge PJ fan. And me being a huge GNR-fan then as I am today, sort of "hated" them just to spite him. Lame, I know..... 

So a week ago I bought it on CD. My first Pearl Jam album! And lovin' it!!   

Any suggestions on what album to pick up next?

I guess some of you will say "all of them!", but I like to take it slow and thorough in cases like this....

VS!!!!!

Dissident should have been a GN'R song!  (Guitarwise)

Vitalogy was a good one too.  After that they started to go a little downhill for me, though No Code had some solid tunes on it.  Yield and Binaural were, eh, for me.  And that's when I gave up.  Still a great band to see live though.  Saw them for the first time last summer.  They were spot on.  And Eddie gave a shout out to my hometown of 10,000 people (small town) which was cool.

Buy Live at the Gorge next. It's a bit pricey but you may never need another PJ album after that.

I wish they werent playing the 02 in London - i hate that venue.  it has no soul and is incredibly draughty, poor sound... (although Indigo is pretty ok).  Pearl Jam can fill space well - but kinda wish this was Wembley Arena for them rather than 02. Hope GnR dont play 02 in the future 

Naltav - Riot Act is superb and there's some good tracks on Vitalogy as well.  bt VS and Riot Act are prob my faves after Ten. 

[Naltav]

Thanx for the suggestions guys!

I Think No Code, Yield, and Binaural are three of their strongest albums, actually. Riot Act and the Self Titled album weren't great though. Riot Act was consistently boring, and only half of the self titled album was strong and memorable.

I wonder if the song has anything to do with Obama being in office?

Pearl Jam Announces U.S. Tour Dates

Pearl Jam will celebrate Halloween early with two concerts at Philadelphia's Wachovia Spectrum to be held Oct. 28 and 30. The shows are part of a brief North American tour which also includes stops in San Diego, Seattle and Los Angeles. Ben Harper and Relentless 7 will open all announced shows except for those in Philadelphia.

The band will also head to Australia and New Zealand in November, with additional dates expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

Philadelphia tickets go on sale to the general public on July 17th at 10 a.m. EDT. All other confirmed shows go on sale to the general public on July 18th at 10 a.m. PDT.

The tour dates come in support of Pearl Jam's self-released ninth album, "Backspacer," which will be out Sept. 22. As previously reported, Target will be the exclusive big-box retailer in the United States, while Universal will handle distribution internationally.

The new album's first single, the hard-charging rock track "The Fixer," will hit U.S. radio and digital retailers on July 20. During a June 1 appearance on "The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien," Pearl Jam premiered "Got Some," another new song from "Backspacer," and at recent solo shows, frontman Eddie Vedder has debuted three other tracks -- "Unthought Known," "The End" and "Speed of Sound" -- which are expected to appear on the album as well.

On Aug. 8, Pearl Jam will play its first full live show in more than a year at the Virgin Festival in Calgary, Alberta. After a quick four-show run in Europe, the band then visits Toronto (Aug. 21) and Chicago (Aug. 23-24) before headlining the Outside Lands festival in San Francisco on Aug. 28.

Also on tap is a headlining slot on Oct. 4 at the Austin City Limits festival in Austin, Texas. The day before, Pearl Jam will tape an episode of the long-running TV series "Austin City Limits."

Here are Pearl Jam's new tour dates:

Sept. 21: Seattle (Key Arena)   
Sept. 22: Seattle (Key Arena)   
Sept. 30: Los Angeles (Gibson Amp.)   
Oct. 1: Los Angeles (Gibson Amp.)   
Oct. 6: Los Angeles (Gibson Amp.)   
Oct. 7: Los Angeles (Gibson Amp.)   
Oct. 9: San Diego (Viejas Arena)   
Oct. 28: Philadelphia (Spectrum)   
Oct. 30: Philadelphia (Spectrum)

what do u think of PJ doing a Target commercial though......

seems a little different from what they usually are about

They seem to have come off that anti-corporate stance a bit in recent years. I saw them in concert last year and Miller Lite was sponsoring the tour.
