I have never admitted to being a big Pearl Jam fan. I don't know why that is. Maybe they are too... known. Too pedestrian.
But they are not pedestrian. They are deep as shit.
Yeah and maybe that is it, they are too damn deep.
Anyway. I am sitting home (mostly) alone on a Saturday night, having beers and listening to live Pearl Jam recordings, reliving being at one of the several Pearl Jam shows I seen.
These are the beers I had leading into the impromptu listening party, and the beers I’m drinking now, having a good time with a nice relaxing buzz:
Liquid Gravity Brewing "Pale From The Crypt" Pale.
Barebottle Brewing "Citra Ka-Pow" IPA.
Coronado Brewing "Big Weekend" DIPA.
Sierra Nevada “Celebration IPA”.
BTW, have you listened to Pearl Jam's new stuff, Dark Matter? It's pretty fucking good for a band that most people would consider 'past their prime' and stuff.
Anyway, please make space to have some beers and listen to a band you love this weeek, it will make you feel better about things, I promise.

Peace ✌️ Beer 🍻 Metal 🤘
At 70 I still give Pearl Jam a listen once ina while. It just depends on the mood. Great post Mike.
When I’m in a Jam, grape is the only way out! (Buzz talk )
