Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
Haz una cosa, como ellos no tienen forma de saber si te va a llegar, pase lo que pase, diles que no te llega, y cuando pase el tiempo máximo de llegada, les reclamas el dinero. Si te llega, pues uno va a ser gratis y lo puedes vender. No es muy ético, pero ellos son los que lo mandan cuando y como les sale de los cojones.Txomin escribió:Ya les mandé, pero me dicen que ya salió....John Custer escribió:Reclama que no te ha llegado y que te devuelvan el dinero y te vas a una tienda a comprartelo hoy mismo.

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
Es que me han llegado dos, Bill Callahan y Hangmen, pero me falta el de Bowie, uno de los cuervos, el de Israel y el de PJ. Son de diferentes pedidos, pero los hize en un período de 2-3 días, luego tendría que mirar la fecha en la que puso dispatched, pero por lo menos 2 semanas han pasado. y de hecho hoy tenía un mail en el que me dicen que el de Israel (el que estaa en backorder), que todavía no lo tienen en stock y que en cuanto les llegue que me lo mandarán. Si fuese sólo el de PJ, sí que les haría lo que dices, Custer, pero con todos los demás.....De todas formas y por saber, todos los que han hecho la compra por Wow hd, lo han recibido?

A mi me llama mucho la atención la producción que tiene tan limpia en comparación a la de un Vs. obra de O'Brien que al parecer es fan de las primeras tomas, o lo era... porque a este disco le falta más crudeza.hcsickness escribió:Presente.

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
- En la gira después del show número 9:
- Llevan 99 canciones distintas.
- Curiosamente han acabado más veces con Indifference (5) que con Yellow Ledbetter (4)
- Ninguna canción que no sea de Lightning Bolt ha sido interpretada en todos los conciertos.
- De Lightning Bolt han tocado en todos los shows Mind Your Manners, Sirens y Lightning Bolt.
-La ausencia más destacable hasta ahora es The Fixer. Single de Backspacer e interpretada practicamente en todos los shows de esa gira.
- Otros temas que están por debutar y suelen caer son Inside Job, Severed Hand o Sad.
- De Lightning Bolt fantan por debutar Getaway y Sleeping By Myself (aunque esta ya la ha interpretado EV en solitario).
- Todos los shows han empezado con Pendulum salvo uno. Pero en todos le ha seguido al menos un tema que habitualmente era de comienzo de show (Release, Wash, Long Road,...)
- Durante el primer bis se han sentado para 3-4 canciones en un tono más acústico.

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
Last night at Pearl Jam’s show in Baltimore there was tension between Jeff Ament and the rest of the band. Eddie Vedder did not introduce Jeff during the band introductions, and Ament reportedly looked upset when Eddie failed to mention him and his mood changed after being upbeat earlier during the show. Ament threw down his ear plugs and stormed off stage immediately with a pissed off look on his face when the show ended.

Hombre nunca se puede comparar Amazon con Cdwow, la diferencia respecto a la velocidad en el envío y el trato al cliente es abismal.En todo caso se podrían comparar los vendedores particulares que ofertan sus productos en Amazon, y el envío es parecido al de Cdwow, aunque generalmente vendedores fiables(personalmente recomiendo allyourmusic) suelen tardar menos.
En el caso particular de cdwow depende mucho también de las circunstancias, por ejemplo el último de Kings Of Leon me lo enviaron el 3 de Octubre y me llegó creo el día 23, y sin embargo otro disco me lo enviaron el día 8 y el 16/17 ya lo tenía en casa. Respecto a Pearl Jam ando como todos, los han despachado el 15 y de momento esperando, pero yo creo que esta semana llegan.
Lo que sí puedo decir es que todos los pedidos que he hecho a cdwow me han llegado antes o después.

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
When it rains, it pours.
I'm writing this while laying on a friend's living room, recuperating from a knee surgery brought on from years of abuse in my band. As a teen, I took the unsaid lesson that bands like Black Flag taught me quite literally; play hard or go home. And for over two decades I've done this, and I'm physically paying for it now.
How does this relate to Pearl Jam? Don't worry, I'll get there.
Pearl Jam has never appealed to me in the traditional sense. By the time they were taking root in popular culture, I irrationally despised them. The major label marketing machine behind bands pigeonholed as "grunge" practiced overkill without prejudice, sucking the life out of many of the artists that they came in contact with. Even if certain bands were appealing in the primordial form of "grunge" (Skin Yard, Big Chief, Mudhoney and others) my infatuations quickly deflated with the exploitation of the subgenre. Too much of anything can be a bad thing.
I was a teenage music fanatic in the early '90s, a golden era for aggressive music. Back then, I was recuperating from a broken kneecap. I was laid up for six months, and music became an intense obsession of mine, both as a player and as a devout listener. I would spend hours on end, lost in my head, thinking about the kind of band I wanted and the qualities I wanted to carry one day.
Even then, major labels couldn't piss on my leg and tell me it was raining. I may have known nothing about most things in life, but I felt I could determine if a band was the real deal or not with pinpoint accuracy. I had a voracious appetite for the real thing (still do) and I no tolerance for poseurs, an epithet that even now, I consider a fate worse than death.
One late Saturday night on Headbangers Ball, I saw Pearl Jam's breakthrough video for "Alive" and immediately viewed it as suspect. It had everything a young music lover could possibly want; an arty black-and-white treatment, slow-motion stage dives, and even a visual metaphor for the new craze of "crowd surfing" — the grainy "wave" visual that appears throughout — all in one all-too-perfect package. Something felt off.
As I looked closer, Stone Gossard seemed to be a strange Stevie Ray Vaughan impersonator. Mike McCready's funky stage moves were awkwardly high school, Jeff Ament's crochet Rasta hat was costume-esque, and Eddie Vedder's role as the oblivious heartthrob seemed contrived. Add to that their drummer holding his sticks in a geeky traditional grip, and their fate was sealed in my know-it-all brain: Pearl Jam was a sham.
As Pearl Jam aged, their public resistance to the music industry remained fishy to me. Once-willing participants in the major label millionaire machine, they would lightly bite at the hand that fed them, conceptually aligning themselves with do-it-yourself pioneers Fugazi and the symbolically rebellious Neil Young while still being a cog in the reviled machine.
I turned them off before ever tuning in. For all intents and purposes, Pearl Jam were pop music disguised as alternative art and I wanted no part of it. It took 20 years of my life to pass and some personal introspection to convince me otherwise.
Exactly a year ago, on an overnight drive in the mountains of Oregon, our bassist Nate Newton turned to me and yelled, "We're gonna crash, brace yourselves!" loud enough to be heard over my blaring headphones. Those were the last words uttered before our van and trailer spun out of control, careening into a highway barrier, facing the wrong way on I-84. As we skidded to a halt, I looked at the faces of my bandmates and crew. And that's when it hit me; these people are so different from me, yet we are a family. I love them as such. I never want to lose them. We're different in every conceivable way; upbringings, hates, loves, fears, etc. But we are the same, a crew that finds commonality in the music that we make. I really don't know what I would've done if things took a more tragic turn that night.
And don't laugh, but when we crashed, I was listening to Pearl Jam's version of the Who's "Love, Reign o'er Me."
Still shaken up, we managed to get our wounded van and trailer off the highway, only to sit on a back road waiting for a tow truck to arrive. In pitch blackness I lay on a bench seat, trying to calm my nerves. I wanted to call home and tell my wife I loved her, but there was no service. As the others drifted off to sleep I looked for a distraction from it all. I put my headphones back on and hit play. Pearl Jam's version of "Love Reign o'er Me" washed over me again and I got goosebumps. I played that song over and over that night. Partly because the original is an old favorite, and partly because I needed something comforting in the chaos. Then I distracted myself from our grim situation with thoughts of the band, my life, and the mess I was in. And for the first time in my years of suspiciously listening to Pearl Jam like an investigator, I began to understand the band in a way I never did before.
What I naively misconstrued as a major label sham was actually a true collection of musical misfits. Pearl Jam found each other organically, just like our band did. They never wanted to play anything but honest, emotional music, just like our band played. And they're all intensely different individuals, just like our band is. Pearl Jam wasn't cool or hip, and didn't claim to be. They were awkward kids, just like us. The closer I looked, the more parallels I saw to my own efforts and motivation.

What I mistook in them as calculated was actually a very different "c" word entirely: character. They were a form of rebellion back then and I was just too stubborn to realize it.
Pearl Jam's bitterness towards the industry was very real. As promising kids, they innocently teetered on the edge of something spectacular only to be shoved off the edge by big business interests.

The external pressures that cursed them at the peak of their '90s powers could've crushed coal to diamonds.

I respect them for that.
Lightning Bolt is Pearl Jam's tenth album. Sonically, it's a modern yet warm rock record. At times it carries a pop vagueness and at other times it bears intense emotional weight. Critics often misinterpret it as a weakness, but this disparate assemblage of moods is precisely the band's strength — the varied dynamics they offer are the sound of real-life human complexity. That's the beautiful thing about music: it can speak all kinds of languages.
I know that what I write here doesn't matter to a true artist, nor should it. The emotional fulfillment from what they create is the only thing that matters on their end. As I've grown as an artist and musician I've also grown as a listener of music; I've learned that the musical world doesn't revolve around me and what I prefer to hear. Music being "good or bad" is a flawed idea. Artists make what they want to make and we either connect with it or we don't. Just because we relate to some songs more than others doesn't make the others less valid, we just don't understand them. In fact, we aren't meant to, and that's all right.
Songs on Lightning Bolt that speak to me at this point in my life: "Sirens," "Pendulum," "Yellow Moon" and "Future Days." These songs have something in common: they are tales of love's importance in the face of mortality. That's a universal struggle that I relate to, so much so that it's sometimes the subject of art and music that I make. It may have taken the scare of a lifetime, but I now see Pearl Jam in a different light. Not as symbolic adversaries, but as relatives from a distant land.

I'm writing this while laying on a friend's living room, recuperating from a knee surgery brought on from years of abuse in my band. As a teen, I took the unsaid lesson that bands like Black Flag taught me quite literally; play hard or go home. And for over two decades I've done this, and I'm physically paying for it now.
How does this relate to Pearl Jam? Don't worry, I'll get there.
Pearl Jam has never appealed to me in the traditional sense. By the time they were taking root in popular culture, I irrationally despised them. The major label marketing machine behind bands pigeonholed as "grunge" practiced overkill without prejudice, sucking the life out of many of the artists that they came in contact with. Even if certain bands were appealing in the primordial form of "grunge" (Skin Yard, Big Chief, Mudhoney and others) my infatuations quickly deflated with the exploitation of the subgenre. Too much of anything can be a bad thing.
I was a teenage music fanatic in the early '90s, a golden era for aggressive music. Back then, I was recuperating from a broken kneecap. I was laid up for six months, and music became an intense obsession of mine, both as a player and as a devout listener. I would spend hours on end, lost in my head, thinking about the kind of band I wanted and the qualities I wanted to carry one day.
Even then, major labels couldn't piss on my leg and tell me it was raining. I may have known nothing about most things in life, but I felt I could determine if a band was the real deal or not with pinpoint accuracy. I had a voracious appetite for the real thing (still do) and I no tolerance for poseurs, an epithet that even now, I consider a fate worse than death.
One late Saturday night on Headbangers Ball, I saw Pearl Jam's breakthrough video for "Alive" and immediately viewed it as suspect. It had everything a young music lover could possibly want; an arty black-and-white treatment, slow-motion stage dives, and even a visual metaphor for the new craze of "crowd surfing" — the grainy "wave" visual that appears throughout — all in one all-too-perfect package. Something felt off.
As I looked closer, Stone Gossard seemed to be a strange Stevie Ray Vaughan impersonator. Mike McCready's funky stage moves were awkwardly high school, Jeff Ament's crochet Rasta hat was costume-esque, and Eddie Vedder's role as the oblivious heartthrob seemed contrived. Add to that their drummer holding his sticks in a geeky traditional grip, and their fate was sealed in my know-it-all brain: Pearl Jam was a sham.
As Pearl Jam aged, their public resistance to the music industry remained fishy to me. Once-willing participants in the major label millionaire machine, they would lightly bite at the hand that fed them, conceptually aligning themselves with do-it-yourself pioneers Fugazi and the symbolically rebellious Neil Young while still being a cog in the reviled machine.
I turned them off before ever tuning in. For all intents and purposes, Pearl Jam were pop music disguised as alternative art and I wanted no part of it. It took 20 years of my life to pass and some personal introspection to convince me otherwise.
Exactly a year ago, on an overnight drive in the mountains of Oregon, our bassist Nate Newton turned to me and yelled, "We're gonna crash, brace yourselves!" loud enough to be heard over my blaring headphones. Those were the last words uttered before our van and trailer spun out of control, careening into a highway barrier, facing the wrong way on I-84. As we skidded to a halt, I looked at the faces of my bandmates and crew. And that's when it hit me; these people are so different from me, yet we are a family. I love them as such. I never want to lose them. We're different in every conceivable way; upbringings, hates, loves, fears, etc. But we are the same, a crew that finds commonality in the music that we make. I really don't know what I would've done if things took a more tragic turn that night.
And don't laugh, but when we crashed, I was listening to Pearl Jam's version of the Who's "Love, Reign o'er Me."
Still shaken up, we managed to get our wounded van and trailer off the highway, only to sit on a back road waiting for a tow truck to arrive. In pitch blackness I lay on a bench seat, trying to calm my nerves. I wanted to call home and tell my wife I loved her, but there was no service. As the others drifted off to sleep I looked for a distraction from it all. I put my headphones back on and hit play. Pearl Jam's version of "Love Reign o'er Me" washed over me again and I got goosebumps. I played that song over and over that night. Partly because the original is an old favorite, and partly because I needed something comforting in the chaos. Then I distracted myself from our grim situation with thoughts of the band, my life, and the mess I was in. And for the first time in my years of suspiciously listening to Pearl Jam like an investigator, I began to understand the band in a way I never did before.
What I naively misconstrued as a major label sham was actually a true collection of musical misfits. Pearl Jam found each other organically, just like our band did. They never wanted to play anything but honest, emotional music, just like our band played. And they're all intensely different individuals, just like our band is. Pearl Jam wasn't cool or hip, and didn't claim to be. They were awkward kids, just like us. The closer I looked, the more parallels I saw to my own efforts and motivation. Though we played at different volumes and to different ends, we carried something similar in our blood. What I mistook in them as calculated was actually a very different "c" word entirely: character. They were a form of rebellion back then and I was just too stubborn to realize it.

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
yo tb pensaba (como se ha dicho en el topic, un poco mas arriba) q entre Jeff Y Eddie habia muy buen rollo..... hasta parecian ser los q mejor se llevavan. Q habra pasado xa q Eddie no presentara a Jeff??. Q raro, no?Frusciante escribió:m b v escribió:Last night at Pearl Jam’s show in Baltimore there was tension between Jeff Ament and the rest of the band. Eddie Vedder did not introduce Jeff during the band introductions, and Ament reportedly looked upset when Eddie failed to mention him and his mood changed after being upbeat earlier during the show. Ament threw down his ear plugs and stormed off stage immediately with a pissed off look on his face when the show ended.
Esto es cierto???

Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
Mi hermano me ha comentado que Eddie se hizo la pocha un lío presentando a matt y luego no se qued el público y luego no se cuantos y vamos, que se olvidó, pero no pareció premeditado. Otra cosa es que jeff se mosqueara, que se mosqueó como se ve en un video su salida echando leches hacia el vestuario....
Re: Pearl Jam: Lightning Bolt (2013)
No hagais caso de alternativenation o grungereport. Son el Sálvame del grunge.
Menuda película se han montado. Que a EV con lo que pimpla se le olvide algún miembro del grupo es habitual. Por no hablar de las letras.
Jeff está como siempre todo el show. Algo pasa en RITFW que se le cruza el cable. Seguramente algún tema técnico ya que no le devuelve el bajo a su pipa como hace siempre. Lo deja medio tirado sobre el ampli y se larga. Y deja sus monitores sobre el teclado de boom camino del vestuario en la zona donde esta precisamente la persona de monitores. No los tira el suelo.
Anda que no se ha pillado rebotes el mismo Eduardo. En Manchester 2009 le dieron un par de veces la guitarra equivocada y se pilló un rebote de narices. Terminó Indifference y se largó pegando patadas a todo lo que pillaba. Al dia siguiente todos amigos, incluso mencionó a su pipa (q era el de J.Ramone) alabando su trabajo.
Tres horas de show, más de 100 temas de repertorio, shows q son editados todos oficialmente, la delicada salud de Mike... mucha tensión como para que no se agarren algún calentón de vez en cuando.
Seguramente EV iba más pimplado de lo habitual (eso comentan) y en vez de mencionar a Jeff diria cualquier chorrada. A estas alturas de la vida eso a Jeff mal no le va a sentar.
Grungereport joder ... cuantas tracklist FAKE de Lightning Bolt publicaron?
