Not really a Pearl Jam fan, but when this showed up in my newsfeed today I chuckled...
Admirable attempt or "Please stop"? Discuss.

For Eruption, unless the person playing it is very detail oriented it's going to fall way short since the original version is a home run on so many levels.
I don't really care about the musical technicality ---- I say "HURRAH" because Pearl Jam is one of the few older bands that maintain a loyal following with the younger folks --- have to give them mad respect for teaching kids that VH is still relevant and needs to be passed on to the new generations.
Just remember ---- 25 years from now some band is gonna be playing Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj songs and trying to teach that generation about the "good music" that influenced them. Weep for THAT future, because I pray I'm dead by that time.
Well, I think we can all say that we've heard much, much worse renditions... It's not bad...
Then again, who the hell am I critiquing the fuckin' thing when I can't play a note, LOL.....
Bottom line - It just doesn't sound the same when anyone other than Edward Lodewijk is playing it....

Edit - just watched the video - COOL!!! You really have to credit them for going for it!
This was last night in Hartford..they only played ATBL in Hartford 3 years ago...Im going to the Charlottesville show Tuesday..First time ever seeing them..cant wait..
I missed them in Buffalo, heard it was a great show...
These guys can play anything..and they do what VH should do..mix it up every show..you get some standards but you never know from there..
Not perfect, but I think he really nails the second and final solo...
I actually like the new stuff..the " heavier" tunes..Getaway is awesome..I don't think they've played that one live yet..
I liked the Dave specific "tribute" via a kick around 6:20. Crowd went wild for those songs!
You're gonna hear the angels sing...
I've seen PJ at least once on every tour since 1993.. Looking back I figure I've seen them at least 30 times. Highlights have been MSG & Seattle.. Great live band. They really mix it up. If VH mixed it up half as much it would be incredible.
Eddie "Cheese" Vedder. Please die.
And on a positive note those LED stage lights are bitch'!
Hmmm...I dunno...I've heard better people NOT in a performing band play BOTH of those songs at a Guitar Center...a LOT better than that.
I would've been happier with just more of their own material than a time wasting cover of a song like that. At least it was CVH...I;ll give 'em that though.
Hey, fuck you. Who in the fuck would pay to go to a Pearl Jam concert? Oh that's right, retards and miscreants like yourself. Fucking Vedder needs to shut the fuck up. Even if I did humiliate myself to see them I'd punch that grungy mangy-looking motherfucker in the face. He needs to shut up and let the band play. Who goes to a show to hear a singer talk?
Go fuck your trailer park landlord for some free propane this month you unemployed F A T bag of shit.
Hilarious.. You claim to have never seen them but you know what goes on at shows. (You're wrong, btw). Get off the hater bandwagon, it's stupid. Only you can find old and uninspired ways to knock a band that's been active and great to their fans for more than 20 years.
Fuck you, too old man.
Again, who goes to a concert to hear a singer talk?
Oh, I see what you tired to do there, trailer trash. Attempting to make your miserable existence seem not so bad as it truly is.
Who is "Katy," fuckface?
My you're so energetic when you suck landlord cock for free propane
Yeah, that's right, asshole. I answered your question.
Roth doesn't talk nowhere near as Vedder. These fucking rock stars. They are being paid and paid well to entertain, not pontificate.
No...
Pearl Cram has been playing the exact same shit for over 20 years. They are more stale than loaf of bread at Safeway. Cheese Vedder is a god damn multimillionaire who you would think by now could afford himself a decent wardrobe. But no...Eddie shops at Eddie (Bauer that is) and sweats worse than that masturbating bear on Conan; he sings in slurs and half-words like a kid in special ed. How anyone can be a fan of this dog and pony act is beyond me.
Ill find a way to enjoy this show..you just continue to bitch and moan..
