It's probably no different with Pearl Jam than it is with the other colleagues who have been making their mark on the music scene for so many years now. Some claim that there is no better export from Seattle, while their mate complains that the band's lyrics and music are getting softer and softer. The only thing that unites the two fans is that once you've been to a Pearl Jam concert, you can't wait to celebrate the next one. I think that says everything!
I recently received a particularly funny review from a critic. He said: "Pearl Jam are the Grateful Dead of grunge".
I wonder how long he has been thinking about this?
