Titolo: [R.E.M] + [Pearl Jam] : notizie dal benefit ...

Vi posto una notizia che potete leggere anche nel club dei PearlJam:
10/20/01 
Shoreline Amphitheater: Mountain View, CA (Bridge School Benefit)
(acoustic)
set: Long Road, Of the Girl, Elderly Woman, new song, Daughter, Better
Man, Drifting, Crazy Mary, Give Me Some Truth, Indifference (with Ben
Harper), Last Kiss
notes: Not a drastic departure from previous Bridge appearances, but a
few surprises and touches. A new song, penned by Mike, is played; has
a somewhat R.E.M.-type sound. The 'Better Man' tag is similar to 'Save
it for Later' but lyrics more like Ed's New Zealand shows with Neil
Finn earlier this year. Ed says that 'Drifting' was written on the way
down from Neil's place and that no one can come out of Neil's, even an
insurance salesman, without becoming a songwriter. It includes the
full band, with Stone helping out on vocals. 'Give Me Some Truth' is a
big standout, with the whole band in good form. Ben Harper helps out
with 'Indifference,' giving Ed a kiss when he walks out on stage.
'Last Kiss,' like '99, is dedicated to Maricor (a Bridge School
student). 
Interessante questa new song con un "somewhat R.E.M.-type sound"
ciao !!!

Ecco una cronaca dello straordinario incontro 
sul palco tra Eddie Vedder e i R.E.M. :
10/23/01 - Crocodile Cafe, Seattle, WA 
(Eddie Vedder solo with R.E.M.)
set list: (only songs that included Ed) Long Road, Begin the Begin, 
It's The End of the World As We Know It/People Have The Power
notes: This surprise R.E.M. show at the Croc was billed as a Minus 5
benefit for the Washington Wilderness Coalition, and sold out right
about the time people started to notice all members of R.E.M. present
as well as one Mr. Ed Vedder, introduced by Michael as "Humbert
Humbert, Jr." (See Lolita if you need the literary reference.) Long
Road is about fourth or fifth in the set and has Ed playing acoustic
guitar - it's kind of rough but nice to hear. A few songs later,
Michael starts asking what happened to his drink, and the next song,
Ed comes out onstage with a tray of drinks and serves everyone in 
the band. He repeats this a few numbers later and somehow ends up
kissing Peter Buck. When the band come out for the encore, they are
led in a conga line by Ed, with his tshirt tucked up into the collar
exposing his stomach (when was the last time we saw Vedder's stomach
onstage? Anyone??), wearing a cowboy hat, and carrying another tray 
of drinks. "Do you guys have any idea how fucking cool Eddie Vedder
is?" asks Michael Stipe, as he launches into a lyrically dubious
version of "Betterman" ("she dreams in circles"? eesh) He finishes 
the song and announces, "Welcome to my shower - there it is." There 
is some discussion on the stage and Michael is heard saying, "Are you
sure? I don't even think I know the lyrics..." and a minor riot ensues
when R.E.M. start up "Begin the Begin" (from Lifes Rich Pageant) and
Ed and Michael trade verses, with Ed seeming to know the words better
than Michael does (but with fuckups along the lines of "she dreams in
circles" so I guess they're even). The evening is finished off with
the "It's The End of the World As We Know It"/"People Have The Power"
mix, with Ed taking more of an active vocal role in both songs, verses
and choruses of PHTP and the backing "It's time I had some time alone"
line from ITEOTW. During the instrumental break, Ed grabs Michael and
starts dancing with him, some weird cross between ballroom dancing and
swing dancing. Honestly. We're really not making any of this up....
 
Incredibile, hanno fatto insieme Begin the Begin !!!
