I was 16 in Seattle in 1992, the only thing that sucks is thinking about those days so much now, I really miss it and wish I would of appreciated more at that time. Sometimes you don't realize the significance of what's happening until you look back on it. I'm glad I was a part of it.
Eddie use to hang out at my friends house.i met him a few times he was such a cool down to earth person. He was dating my friends sister and was over at his house often. We were 13 at the time and even being young he treated everyone like you see in this video. No ego.
@@gabyr.883 then I guess it didnt happen. It was the early 1990s, Nobody had cameras with exception to the occasuonal Disposable film camera for special events. I didnt have one, my friends got a few pics of him from other times he was over but not when i was lrestn that in aware of. We have our memories and those were all the pictures i needed. Your not the first to doubt me its ok. But when your hanging out with celebs most dont like being treated special, the starstruck mentality is typically a turn off. Perfect example, i had a 90 minute talk with metalica lead singer James, I was working the seattle emp grand opening concert for mtv. It was before the show backstage at soundcheck for eminem. I made small talk with james who i assumed was just some roady, i treated him like nobody special and just talked about all skrts of things. I was young and excited so i professed my love for the lifestyle of touring performing and all. He loved every minute of our convo as it went on for 90 minutesat least. Through all of it i didnt realose who he was and in reflection he really loved to have a normal conversation not about him. 90 minutes later my friend walked up? all starstruck and hes like "omg dude your talking to James Hetfield, you know who this is?". James says hello to my friend and leans in with a big smile and gives me a hug and said goodbye and we parted ways. They are just people at the end of the day and when your amongst friends just hanging out its not like omg hes a famous lead singer let me get a picture with this 20lbs camera i so happen to jave with me. But i got no loctures to share so I gueds it didnt happen. And i dont blame you for not buying it? Its the internet and i see tons of what i assume are madeup bs storys online, and im quick to doubt myself.
90s a time where good music was everywhere!! I feel so blessed to have there for it!! I feel.bad for my kids and the younger generations because they have not experienced anything like we did in the 90s!!
Evan Stark, it's the coolest thing that treat him just like an ordinary guy how about that. Eddie use to to say himself that he's just an ordinary guy like everybody else.
You and everybody who liked your comment are honestly fucking naive idiots. I met Alvvays in 2014 right before they got big, as well as Michale Graves earlier that year. There were a bunch of fans at both, and pictures were had with them, but nothing that didn’t happen in the early 90s. We just chatted, like in this video. Take off your rose coloured glasses ffs
I shot this video with my clunky camcorder, the same one I used to film the excellent concert at the mural amphitheater (Seattle center) on 8-23-91. Too bad the wind fudged the audio, but still a cool flashback to a young Eddie. Drummer Dave A was there too. There is also footage I shot at the Renton party later that same night (Ed is writing down directions to the party toward the end of this vid)- Eddie did some great improv punkrock style vocals, and his future wife Beth sang also, with Seaweed and some other local musicians. I remember bullshitting with Ed by the campfire that night. He was always a great guy to talk with. Such a cool thing to find this here, as I seem to have lost my master VHS of it somehow~~ I Love PJ!
@Freddy Krumins ~ Thank you Freddy for these awesome videos!! I love the 1991 Seattle Muriel Park concert, one of my favorites. You did a fantastic job filming you are truly appreciated!! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome video ( I love Eddie and Pearl Jam) 😊💓🤘✌️
Hey Freddy you are a legend! Thanks so much for capturing this and the Mural show. 1st time seeing this gem but have watched the Mural show so many times. Both vids transported me back to a much simpler time when life was lived in the present tense 😉 Was lucky enough to have seen PJ 3x in 92 and even met Ed entirely by accident in the middle of nowhere California several years ago. Just a chill reserved dude like here. Flew out from FL to see them last week in Seattle. Blessed. Thanks again for bottling time 🙌🏼
Such a lovely chill scene. And his whole life I have never seen or heard a bad word about Eddie Vedder. The coolest guy in that music scene of the 90's
It’s amazing how back then in music you could hang with your favorite musician without any problems and see them be who they are and seeing a young Eddie like this it’s amazing and just so respectful the fans are and how everyone is so content with themselves
I was 16 in Seattle in 1992, the only thing that sucks is thinking about those days so much now, I really miss it and wish I would of appreciated more at that time. Sometimes you don't realize the significance of what's happening until you look back on it. I'm glad I was a part of it.
Saw things clearer, once you were in my rearviewmirror. This whole video is just kind of painful to me, cause I am 16 right now and I just wish every fucking day to have been there, to have been as lucky as you. These just were different times you know.
I was 29 in 1992. I bought Ten and Nevermind on the same day and listened to it for a while, then kind of forgot about PJ until a few months ago. Now I'm kicking myself for missing their prime years. I had pretty much stopped watching MTV by then, and there was no internet to keep up with them, so I basically heard the songs the radio stations played and that was it. I'm sad that I missed it all. Nostalgia will be the death of me someday.
I was a teen then too. I enjoyed all of PJ’s albums in the 90’s but there were so many great bands/music at that time I didn’t follow them as closely as others. Cool to see all this stuff on the internet that I had no idea about like his love for surfing. Before that I got my info from my SPIN subscription MTV or just word of mouth.
@@joandrumz3176 I feel that same way, man. I'm 17 at the moment. It just feels like everything that makes life entertaining, captivating and fun has just become so compressed into one area (the internet) that everything just feels so lifeless. It makes me really fucking sad, especially as somebody who really appreciates pop culture's offerings to younger people and loves both listening to and playing music. And don't even get me started on misinformation, mental health crises, and constant paranoia. I don't want the world holding its breath anymore for something to just kill it off already. I don't want to be feeling this way at this age, especially with what I've been hearing about the next decade. Hell, even the next few years. I want to have fun being young and look forward to the rest of my life. I don't wanna be fucking waiting and wondering when I'm going to end up living in a bomb shelter or something
Love how organic eveything is no makeup no hair products just ripped denim and tshirts boots or sneakers even the scenery is unobstructed just a nice day of hanging in the park talking too a rockstar
I think Eddie may love to go back to those times when he could just wander around the local park and chat with his fans without being mobbed and with no security in sight. Everyone just keeping it real and talking about the things that mattered to them. Love the girls with their shy giggles when ever Eddie said something funny 🖐🖐💗💗🇦🇺🇦🇺
In Seattle he can & does still roam around. I used to see him at the local bakery once in a while & he’d sit there with everyone else eating his Apple fritter or whatever he’d get. Totally normal dude in a city that rejects celebrity.
I was in my 20's when Pearl Jam came about. I belonged to their and Soundgarden's fan clubs. Both bands were so good to their fans including myself. I'm glad I experienced listening to their beautiful music growing up that they produced. And in 2020 I still am!! Thank you Eddie Vedder. I love you. ,💕
Eddie Vedder man. He is a such a genuine soul and this video really, truly shows it. What a rad, rad way to be. It sucks that the industry took this scene and made it 'the next big thing', basically ruining it only a few short years later.
I love this! I hate the celebrity obsessed culture we live in now. They are just human beings. I could totally have a convo like this if I ran into Ed.
My guess is it was destroyed by EV by the end of 1992. I think the song Corduroy is about this jacket and how the corporate fashion world was trying to capitalize on his look and clothing-as oppose to focusing on purely the music. From what I heard stores like The Gap offered Eddie a lot of money if he would appear in their ads. I also heard The Gap (with or without EV's endorsement ) wanted to reproduce the look of that jacket and sell it for lots of $. Naturally, this prolly made Eddie start to hate that jacket-as it was becoming a symbol of the corporate world. By 1993, I don't recall that jacket ever appearing anywhere. The blue 'Members Only'-style jacket was worn by Eddie from 1992 to well into 1995. But this corduroy jacket prolly met its fate by October 1992. But, hey by summer 1993 it was replaced by the even cooler German army jacket.
It was destroyed? I thought it was being auctioned for charity? That corduroy jacket is the coolest thing he ever wear. Eddie without the brown corduroy is like Bruce Wayne without Batman costume.
I remember Eddie wearing that brown jacket in many appearances that year. This is the perfect time capsule of my adolescence. I was lucky to see them perform that summer in Scranton.
Priceless! No selfies No cell phone calls calling more people! Priceless! Quiet! I wonder where this people are now? It would be great to find them and see how they look now and also check out the photos taken this day! Great video. The most intimate and peaceful video I saw from pearl jam in 26 years! Muito Obrigado from Portugal.
I can attest that Ed really is this cool even still. I met him a few years ago and he was awesome. I told him how much PJ has meant to me over my life, and he thanked me and gave me a hug. Best celebrity encounter I ever had.
I remember when Shannen Doherty was crazy about him. I freakin miss 90's girls beauty. Winona Ryder was a goddess compares to Selena Gomez and all this little girls today.
My favorite band on this earth and Eddie Vedder is one of my favorite human beings on this planet, been a huge fan since the beginning. I have watched over a 100's Pearl Jam concerts on RUclips, freakin amazing!!! 😊💓🤘✌️ All eras!
god seeing videos like this make me so jealous yet anxious at the same time. I would never be able to walk up to someone famous I admire and have a conversation with them, i'd be too nervous and probably fuck up.
That's too bad, I met so many bands in the 90s, I never allowed myself to act like a drooling teenager, I was also laid back and reserved as I am today and I think that's what everyone wants because I don't piss anyone off with dumb shit, I'm just down with whatever.
Got to visit seattle last summer. The summer before Covid 19. I fell in love with it! Such a cool and beautiful place! Hopefully I'll be able to make it there again soon! Actually walked right into Kim Thayl from Soundgarden!! He chatted with my wife and I about 10 minutes. He's a very nice guy.
Wow. Memory lane! This is so great to find. I was 14 in Seattle and my friend won tickets to that show they eventually played. If I recall it was called “Drop in the park” or something. Seaweed opened up, Cypress Hill was there. It rained for half the day and we all wore garbage bags as ponchos. Good memories :)
thank you SO MUCH for posting it. SO MUCH. The world was totally different then. I really miss those times. I miss that quiet and freedom. All my life as a musician started from that thing thay call "grunge". PJ my most inspiration. Still again thanks for posting it. Love.
man you're not the only one. My hair are still very long but in the meanwhile the whole world changed. In so few few few years. I miss those days for real. I miss them so long.
Now its all that thug ganster r and b. Crap like lil payne and Drake. I had more musical talent than both of those two by the time I was 13. Lol not even kidding.
I'm totally with you. Late 80's early 90's were something so unique. As for music as for a lot of other things. From clothes to magazines to books to people. And I look to young people these days... OMG! I'm not even from the States or UK. I'm Italian but believe me all that shit somehow made it here and kids are so f***ed. Never seen anything like that in my days.
These comments are killing me. I was 23 in 92. You guys act like it was a century ago. Seems like yesterday to me. Time goes fast.. And yes, because there wasn't this social media shit, it WAS amazing to be young in the 90's. I miss it!
This is awesome. I wonder if Eddie knows this video is out there? He'd probably find it depressing and sad in a way. Doubtful he could do this same thing today and not just be totally mobbed. Thanks so much for sharing.
This is really how we were back then kids, you could learn to put your phones away and just enjoy the moment. Half the time now, I rarely take a picture of something I encounter just because it's "my memory" and I don't want to share it.
I truly miss the days where we had no cell phones or hand held devices to disrupt the moments we lived to the fullest once upon a time. I was in my 20s and early 30s during the grunge era, amazing time and a magical moment in my lifetime. I'm 61 now about same age as Matt Cameron but I'm forever young at heart because if those experiences where we weren't worried about missed calls or text, it was all about the moment. I miss those days so much!
I love how when someone's famous or in a band everyone just adores their personality. Like in these comments lol. Like awww he's so pure so awkward and sweet so sincere No ego.. as if there aren't TONS of other people like that. He's not that wildly special he just seems like a chill humble guy. I doubt he fancied himself as wildly special either People are Especially like that with Kurt. Like he had some deep mystical hidden shit about him or something.. or like he was a literal genius with an IQ of 200 and every single thing he said in interviews was calculated and genius humor.. like nah I'm sure he was a pretty normal guy, probably shy, had a very mixed emotional reaction to all the fame, and struggled with depression & addiction like myself. It doesnt take a genius to see that. People just like to put their idols way up on a pedestal like they're more than human or something
EXACTLY! Sure eddies a good guy we can tell but there’s nothing special about him except the fact that he’s in a band. That might seem rude, but I just mean that he’s human too. Kurt Cobain as well. People will idolize him and infantacize him at the same time, it’s crazy. He’s not a “smol baby boi” he’s fucking dead Emily.
That is not it, they actually ARE special, in fact every human is special once you get to know them more, expressing our emotional core through music can expose us to the world, and people can see that person better than if they were just strangers at a gas station, they'd be just good looking. Plus it is the confidence to be exposed to millions of people so vulnerably, that's sexy, especially to ladies. It's obvious you're a guy, so you don't get it, lol. I'm sure Eddie did not get it back then either.
Brilliant that one of the Std Brothers is following him around(and got interviewed here!). Look up "Eddie Vedder Takes On The World by the Stud Brothers" and you can read the article they then wrote
What else left but to love such a heartfelt generous genuine personality . An awesome humble man. Oh, Lord his subtle sad face & voice of the Titans are healing, deeply recovering. Thank you Eddie for all your Love and humanity. Always bring me back to life. 🌹💔☀️
In response to tons of comments. Yes I love the way the "stars" and the fans are all the same in this too. But there were countless bands from the 60s to 80s who were this same way. And there are so many great bands/artists NOW - since the 90s, who aren't as popular, AND they're the same way too!
@@ellisdutchenburg8618 yeah I would say 5'6". I am 5'6" and I have stood right next to Ed on more than one occasion. He is eye to eye with me. Pretty much the exact height.
The guys from Pantera hung out with us and drank beer in the parking lot after their gig when I lived in Georgia. So laid back, just normal dudes looking for people to hang out with and party.
Yeah it’s not as uncommon as people think. We hung out with the lead singer of Circa Survive/Saosin after chain fest 2015. Dont really like their music but he was just riding on a bike after the show talking to us. Really just depends on the type of artist. Obviously today’s mainstream artist would never do that but if you’re into band or artist that don’t cater to that type of celebrity it’s pretty easy. Happens all the time in the punk, Emo, and metal environment I feel.
Still can be if you hang out in the right spots. Lots of little hole in the wall venues still hosting small bands, and they still do this kind of thing before and after.
thanks for posting . this type of footage hopefully explains to the 'idol/ x factor' generation why they have been so dudded by corporations. things really were a lot different then
See how they dont shove a phone in his face. That girl in the yellow reminds me of myself going fo a concert by herself with all her savings ! They didn't realize how big Pearl jam would be. They are all so humble and chilled out
I was 26 in 92 and we didnt know how spoiled we were musically....from 91 to about 98 there was a great new album out every week and we just thought thats the way it would be forever ...we never realized that there would be zero musical talent born after 1980...but there really isnt...how sad is that
@krissy Missy PJ's Hall Of Fame Induction (on RUclips)was weird. The band mates were older but all looked bored. Eddie too. He looks too old with the facial hair & short haircut. Seattle changed him!
shortly after this the band really became super popular and his fans became like rabid dogs. he couldn't crowd surf any more because they ripped his clothes and pulled out his hair to get souvenirs. fans sat around his house 24/7 and followed him everywhere. one even tried to drive into his house at 50 miles an hour. their stuff got stolen from their dressing room backstage and off their tour bus. the fans that supposedly love him so much have been pretty shitty to him over the years in person. if he's a little bit more stand-offish now i think he has good reason.
@@ghostman1994 grew up, went to school with a few of the kids who are chatting with Ed. They loved it, when I sent them this video when social media came about and we reconnected.
I wish I was a teenager during that year in Seattle.
I was 16 in Seattle in 1992, the only thing that sucks is thinking about those days so much now, I really miss it and wish I would of appreciated more at that time. Sometimes you don't realize the significance of what's happening until you look back on it. I'm glad I was a part of it.
I was a teenager during that year in Seattle. However, I was in Houston.
Yup i was 19 at this moment and loved it. Seems like just a few years ago.........
@@atreides6
Aaron from Houston. Sounds about right.
I realize I am kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?
You know its the 90's when you're chilling at the park and the entire Pearl Jam posse rolls up and starts vibing with you out of nowhere
Eddie use to hang out at my friends house.i met him a few times he was such a cool down to earth person. He was dating my friends sister and was over at his house often. We were 13 at the time and even being young he treated everyone like you see in this video. No ego.

Now in 2021 we can't get off are phones LOL
It was a badass time to be alive, I wish my kids could experience life with music that's not on phones.
90s a time where good music was everywhere!! I feel so blessed to have there for it!! I feel.bad for my kids and the younger generations because they have not experienced anything like we did in the 90s!!
I was actually reminiscing about it.😂
Life without Cell Phones.

He's so shy and soft-spoken, it's adorable
Lemme guess: he's even adorable when he's angry too?
That's "funny" because when non-famous people speak like him, they're called "weak" instead of "adorable". Especially by women.

I think you mean a hall of fame legend but yah
Eddie used hair products.
I love this too much, Eddie's so sweet. It's like watching a time capsule, makes you feel like you're there.
Susie P, this video is so cool it's stirred up beautiful emotions and memories in me and actually made me cry....
Nemesis 23 i cried too, it felt like i was there living it
back then us fans could chill with them like that and talk. todays people (fans) can't be trusted, so freaking sad.
Everyone seemed so respectful & chilled out. My favourite part was hearing the 'wind up' on the camera.
I think Eddie may love to go back to those times when he could just wander around the local park and chat with his fans without being mobbed and with no security in sight.

I love this! I hate the celebrity obsessed culture we live in now. They are just human beings. I could totally have a convo like this if I ran into Ed.
Nothing’s changed
We've always lived in a celebrity obsessed culture. It was amplified by word of mouth, then TV, and now it's being done by the internet.
Very down to earth, and very shy. So was Chris.
Look at him. Always so cool and humble. I've always loved him.
Dude this is such a bad ass video
Look at the times back then before iPhones and social media so much cooler
Dustin Mirra can't agree more!! Eddie's my fuckin idol!
Dustin Mirra I think everyone here has been alive since 2009
It is amazing! Look at people just standing and talking to him instead of commodifying him into a selfie on social media.
Today there's just zumbis

But, hey by summer 1993 it was replaced by the even cooler German army jacket.
It was destroyed? I thought it was being auctioned for charity? That corduroy jacket is the coolest thing he ever wear. Eddie without the brown corduroy is like Bruce Wayne without Batman costume.
where did you hear it's being auctioned for charity?
Grammatical Erorr i heard the same thing, i mean read
It was recently on display somewhere. I forget where but I saw the pictures of it online in like a glass case or hanging up
Hi, iam from México, these details of Eddie are the ones that make me remember why i love pearl jam, greetings!
I love how he's wearing shorts with that jacket XD That jacket was well loved by Eddie.
I remember Eddie wearing that brown jacket in many appearances that year. This is the perfect time capsule of my adolescence. I was lucky to see them perform that summer in Scranton.
THAT JACKET I SWEAR
Belief is not a work Romans 4:5 that doesnt sound far fetch considering back in the day he would spaze out on stage
Awesome how he treats his fans just like they were a friend
Priceless! No selfies No cell phone calls calling more people! Priceless! Quiet! I wonder where this people are now? It would be great to find them and see how they look now and also check out the photos taken this day! Great video. The most intimate and peaceful video I saw from pearl jam in 26 years! Muito Obrigado from Portugal.
If phones were around then they would have been doing selfies, not talking. Blame the tech, man.
He's so laid back.
This video showed me so many things, especially considering I’m a teenager
That Record awww that comment truly warmed my heart. I was a 90s kid.. I hope your generation will catch up to your mindset ☺️🖤
I can attest that Ed really is this cool even still. I met him a few years ago and he was awesome. I told him how much PJ has meant to me over my life, and he thanked me and gave me a hug. Best celebrity encounter I ever had.
this is cool as hell. all of those girls love Eddie haha.
I remember when Shannen Doherty was crazy about him. I freakin miss 90's girls beauty. Winona Ryder was a goddess compares to Selena Gomez and all this little girls today.
we still do
FUCKING TRUE BRO !!!!
Indeed! ❤️
🔥❤️😍😘💋
This video encapsulates why Eddie is an inspiration to me
My favorite band on this earth and Eddie Vedder is one of my favorite human beings on this planet, been a huge fan since the beginning. I have watched over a 100's Pearl Jam concerts on RUclips, freakin amazing!!! 😊💓🤘✌️ All eras!
Just humans being human. Sharing thoughts and experiences, enjoying their existence together. Ah, how I miss it.
Ed is just the coolest dude.
I was born and raised in Seattle and remember Gas Works very well. This is so cool.
The skyline is huge but Gasworks looks mostly the same. The trees are bigger. But it's mostly the same.
god seeing videos like this make me so jealous yet anxious at the same time. I would never be able to walk up to someone famous I admire and have a conversation with them, i'd be too nervous and probably fuck up.
Kali Wilson, I I know exactly what you mean I once got to meet Billy Corgan and made a fool out of myself because I was so excited.
I'd just try to paint with him or something... Fame is fickle.
That's too bad, I met so many bands in the 90s, I never allowed myself to act like a drooling teenager, I was also laid back and reserved as I am today and I think that's what everyone wants because I don't piss anyone off with dumb shit, I'm just down with whatever.
I have enough trouble walking up to a non-famous person and having a conversation.
@@lisagd22 So relatable, mainly why I am not significantly more awkward meeting famous people
Time machine back to 1992
I'm in
Let’s do it
beautiful man
Oh yes ! and so adorable
Eddie Vedder is my spirit animal
Got to visit seattle last summer. The summer before Covid 19. I fell in love with it! Such a cool and beautiful place! Hopefully I'll be able to make it there again soon! Actually walked right into Kim Thayl from Soundgarden!! He chatted with my wife and I about 10 minutes. He's a very nice guy.
All the ladies are enamored with Eddie he's so cute
Wow. Memory lane! This is so great to find. I was 14 in Seattle and my friend won tickets to that show they eventually played. If I recall it was called “Drop in the park” or something. Seaweed opened up, Cypress Hill was there. It rained for half the day and we all wore garbage bags as ponchos. Good memories :)
Awesome👍 you're so lucky😉
thank you SO MUCH for posting it. SO MUCH. The world was totally different then. I really miss those times. I miss that quiet and freedom. All my life as a musician started from that thing thay call "grunge". PJ my most inspiration.
Still again thanks for posting it.
Love.
Chris_Rolling totally agreed just got done saying I miss my long hair. Life was so much simpler and better.
man you're not the only one. My hair are still very long but in the meanwhile the whole world changed. In so few few few years. I miss those days for real. I miss them so long.
Me too bro...bad. I would give anything to go back to about 89 and I would stop wearing hats and start on rogaine early. Lol.
Now its all that thug ganster r and b. Crap like lil payne and Drake. I had more musical talent than both of those two by the time I was 13. Lol not even kidding.
I'm totally with you. Late 80's early 90's were something so unique. As for music as for a lot of other things. From clothes to magazines to books to people.
And I look to young people these days... OMG!
I'm not even from the States or UK. I'm Italian but believe me all that shit somehow made it here and kids are so f***ed. Never seen anything like that in my days.
Such a sweet guy
Sensitive eddie so sweet! ❤
Wish I`d lived in the early 90`s in seattle....seemed so much cooler back then
It was kind of a shit show, but it's a very salt of the land region, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
These comments are killing me. I was 23 in 92. You guys act like it was a century ago. Seems like yesterday to me. Time goes fast.. And yes, because there wasn't this social media shit, it WAS amazing to be young in the 90's. I miss it!
I was 17 in 1990, born and raised on east side of seattle. It was way cooler then than it is now. I actually avoid it if at all possible
To me, rock'n roll passed away right after grunge movement !!!
This is MORE awesome, than if I saw him live singing today in a HUGE stadium. Keeping it real.
Most of the cars in this video are newer than the car I'm driving now.
sam newton my dad still owns a vw passat from the 90s cause he and I are into old cars
In 2020 and i drive a 1979 truck
This is awesome. I wonder if Eddie knows this video is out there? He'd probably find it depressing and sad in a way. Doubtful he could do this same thing today and not just be totally mobbed. Thanks so much for sharing.
I just wrote this how is this here???!
A meeting in the park with Vedder and Staley (13:45). Coolest day ever.
That’s not Staley.
1992 and 1994 for the two best years for music.
This is really how we were back then kids, you could learn to put your phones away and just enjoy the moment. Half the time now, I rarely take a picture of something I encounter just because it's "my memory" and I don't want to share it.
This is amazing, lucky people...Such a precious video...
His precious smile🥺🤧
I truly miss the days where we had no cell phones or hand held devices to disrupt the moments we lived to the fullest once upon a time. I was in my 20s and early 30s during the grunge era, amazing time and a magical moment in my lifetime. I'm 61 now about same age as Matt Cameron but I'm forever young at heart because if those experiences where we weren't worried about missed calls or text, it was all about the moment. I miss those days so much!
Eddie is so cute 🥰
The revival of real Rock n RoLL/music in general. 🙏🏼
I love how when someone's famous or in a band everyone just adores their personality. Like in these comments lol. Like awww he's so pure so awkward and sweet so sincere No ego.. as if there aren't TONS of other people like that. He's not that wildly special he just seems like a chill humble guy. I doubt he fancied himself as wildly special either
People are Especially like that with Kurt. Like he had some deep mystical hidden shit about him or something.. or like he was a literal genius with an IQ of 200 and every single thing he said in interviews was calculated and genius humor.. like nah I'm sure he was a pretty normal guy, probably shy, had a very mixed emotional reaction to all the fame, and struggled with depression & addiction like myself. It doesnt take a genius to see that. People just like to put their idols way up on a pedestal like they're more than human or something
EXACTLY! Sure eddies a good guy we can tell but there’s nothing special about him except the fact that he’s in a band. That might seem rude, but I just mean that he’s human too. Kurt Cobain as well. People will idolize him and infantacize him at the same time, it’s crazy. He’s not a “smol baby boi” he’s fucking dead Emily.
@@rachaeldacek9409 that last part fucking killed me 😂
That is not it, they actually ARE special, in fact every human is special once you get to know them more, expressing our emotional core through music can expose us to the world, and people can see that person better than if they were just strangers at a gas station, they'd be just good looking. Plus it is the confidence to be exposed to millions of people so vulnerably, that's sexy, especially to ladies. It's obvious you're a guy, so you don't get it, lol. I'm sure Eddie did not get it back then either.
This is one of that old footages that should be remastered in 4K by A.I.
This is so cool I love y’all Pearl Jam Eddie 🎸♥️
Brilliant that one of the Std Brothers is following him around(and got interviewed here!). Look up "Eddie Vedder Takes On The World by the Stud Brothers" and you can read the article they then wrote
AWW love these old videos, thanks so much for sharing !
What else left but to love such a heartfelt generous genuine personality . An awesome humble man. Oh, Lord his subtle sad face & voice of the Titans are healing, deeply recovering. Thank you Eddie for all your Love and humanity. Always bring me back to life. 🌹💔☀️
This video is crazy awesome
Oooooooh... Eddie! What a cutie :-)
RIP to the dog in the video
✌️
In response to tons of comments. Yes I love the way the "stars" and the fans are all the same in this too. But there were countless bands from the 60s to 80s who were this same way. And there are so many great bands/artists NOW - since the 90s, who aren't as popular, AND they're the same way too!
WHoa. That blonde girl must be really short because Ed looks so tall next to her
Ed's probably 5'6/5'7
The ground was probably uneven too!
@@myriambl
Why can't she just be short?
@@ellisdutchenburg8618 yeah I would say 5'6". I am 5'6" and I have stood right next to Ed on more than one occasion. He is eye to eye with me. Pretty much the exact height.
The guys from Pantera hung out with us and drank beer in the parking lot after their gig when I lived in Georgia. So laid back, just normal dudes looking for people to hang out with and party.
Yeah it’s not as uncommon as people think. We hung out with the lead singer of Circa Survive/Saosin after chain fest 2015. Dont really like their music but he was just riding on a bike after the show talking to us. Really just depends on the type of artist. Obviously today’s mainstream artist would never do that but if you’re into band or artist that don’t cater to that type of celebrity it’s pretty easy. Happens all the time in the punk, Emo, and metal environment I feel.
Slayer
Mee tooo!!! A teenager in Seattle in 91 and 92 yeaaa buddy!!! ♥️🤘
Live for the Moment.
Nobody had cellphones to worry about! ...nice
He's so sweet!❤
What a precious footage! Awesome 🤩
What I would give to have been there
This is why RUclips it great. The closest thing to a Time Machine.
Seattle used to be about the music, back before Amazon came along.
Still can be if you hang out in the right spots. Lots of little hole in the wall venues still hosting small bands, and they still do this kind of thing before and after.
thanks for posting . this type of footage hopefully explains to the 'idol/ x factor' generation why they have been so dudded by corporations. things really were a lot different then
See how they dont shove a phone in his face.
That girl in the yellow reminds me of myself going fo a concert by herself with all her savings !
They didn't realize how big Pearl jam would be.
They are all so humble and chilled out
It was an awesome time to be a teenager/young College student.
I was 26 in 92 and we didnt know how spoiled we were musically....from 91 to about 98 there was a great new album out every week and we just thought thats the way it would be forever ...we never realized that there would be zero musical talent born after 1980...but there really isnt...how sad is that
When Eddie was humble and walked around talking to his fans nothing like the Eddie today.
@krissy Missy
PJ's Hall Of Fame Induction
(on RUclips)was weird. The
band mates were older but
all looked bored. Eddie too.
He looks too old with the
facial hair & short haircut.
Seattle changed him!
shortly after this the band really became super popular and his fans became like rabid dogs. he couldn't crowd surf any more because they ripped his clothes and pulled out his hair to get souvenirs. fans sat around his house 24/7 and followed him everywhere. one even tried to drive into his house at 50 miles an hour. their stuff got stolen from their dressing room backstage and off their tour bus. the fans that supposedly love him so much have been pretty shitty to him over the years in person. if he's a little bit more stand-offish now i think he has good reason.
Would have been so cool to live in Seattle during the early 90s
@@ghostman1994 grew up, went to school with a few of the kids who are chatting with Ed. They loved it, when I sent them this video when social media came about and we reconnected.
This is a priceless from RUclips.
Great
How is Eddie so cool
No cell phones ANYWHERE!!! AND NOW WE CAN'T FUCKING LIVE WITHOUT THEM
Now: 100 buck's " Meet and Greet"
13:40 Lol I thought that was Layne Staley for a sec.
cool video.This video made me miss my long hair. lol wish I could grow it out again.
amazing footage
how strange it is that these people are now 50 years old
Time is crazy like that
"Take my hand, not my picture"
This is awesome!
Who would love Switzerland especially in the spring
