Quotes:

Eddie Vedder: You know, people say it's like a marriage, but it's not, I don't think we are married. I think we come back because we want to and... um... and we can go other places if we want. Someone could walk in and say, 'Look, I'm going to take a year off' and what would we do?

great but too short

this is a great video.but it hurts that it's so short, because I can't get enough of pearl jam:) anyways I would make it a bit differently: I would divide every song as one chapter with comments from the bands on how it was recording it, how it was written etc.I think that there should be some extras.but we can't complain because it's a great insight on how great musicians work and how masterpieces are created.It also shows that they are as usual people as anyone of us:they argue, they are bored, laugh and prank each other.as I watched I noticed that the atmosphere in their studio was similar as when I record with my band:) it's a must have for any PJ fan but also for a any music fan.If you want to see the magic of creating music
