Pearl Jam reuniting with Lone Star State

[pressboxramblings07]

It became well-known that Pearl Jam vowed not to play in Texas again until George Bush was out of office.

It's looking like that time has come, finally.

I'm there.

I'd go see Pearl Jam if Eddie Vedder wasn't a colossal douchebag.

This makes our tip of Pearl Jam, Beastie Boys, Dave Matthews Band, Kings of Leon and Ghostland Observatory as ACL headliners sound on the mark.

Not a bad billing for ACL.

Somewhat related note...with the benefit of a $50 Best Buy giftcard I hadn't used since Christmas...I bought the Ten Reissue Super Deluxe Edition today.

Kicked back listening to the remastered album on vinyl before coming into the office....always a good time. There's a plethora of good stuff (though the price of $125 was steep), including a real, live Mookie Blaylock rookie card.

Really? Eddie Vedder feels the same way about you, jerkface.

Too bad this is during football season.

Maybe if we have to take another furlough I'll ask for the time off.

Pallister can always go see Hagar or Nugent.

Eddie think's he's the Betterman in this comparison.

God, I am embarassed that I made that joke.

Just don't have the Yu Darvish fastball, anymore.

I'd love to see a Nugent show. Hagar's music sucks, regardless of political philosophy.

PLAY PILEDRIVER!!!!!

Sources close to the newsroom reveal Pearl Jam still sucks.
More as this story develops.

You will not go away disappointed from a Nugent show. Even if he inserts his stupid political views into a show, it's funny as hell.

I wanted to root for Joe Flacco to win Rookie of the Year, but I don't like Joe Biden.

I didn't really think that someone wise enough to like Zevon would like the drooling dolt that is Sammy Hagar.

DAMN, YANKEE!

I wonder if Ted's talking to Sarah about her wang dang sweet poontang?

They wouldn't play the state because the president was from there?

Seriously?

 

[pallister]

That was my point. They care soooo much about their fans. Unless they're living in Texas. Those fans can go **** themselves.

I do actually hate the scapegoating of Texas for W.

His whole "Texan" image was a bull**** act and besides, show me a state that has never foisted a menace upon the rest of the country.

It's just another excuse for people to lube up their hate-on for Texas.
