I was reading five horizons concert chron from the early days...every few years I read it from front to back...and I found this particularly funny:

Quote:
08/22/92- Bicentennial Park Grounds: Miami, FL (Lollapalooza) [50m]
set: Even Flow, Why Go, Deep, Jeremy, Suggestion/Alive, Garden, Porch, Rockin' in the Free World
notes: Ed warns after 'Even Flow': "I just want to tell all the photographers, you look like really nice people and those look like really nice cameras. You're standing pretty close and I can't keep control of myself, not with this many people here." Later he leads the crowd in a rousing chorus of "fuck." After Jeremy, "You guys need water ... Let's get these hose fucking going. If I need water they need water." During 'Porch,' Ed gives a little speech: "I'll be honest with you, if the Republicans win the election, I'm fuckin' moving from the United States and never coming back. I just don't think you're that stupid. I think they think you're stupid. I think that's stupid." Al Jourgensen from Ministry joins PJ for part of 'RITFW.' Another good Lolla show.


ahh...at least nobody can accuse him of being fake...

those 1992 lolla shows were insane. he crowd surfed/jumped off of rafters almost every show. i was 13 then and didn't get into pearl jam until a few years later...i can't imagine the 'ed' i know doing any of this...of course i knew about his crowd surfing ways before today but it still kind of blows my mind...he's 40!

hahaha

ok - that was insanity. any media douche bag who used to think ed's whole 'schtick' was an act, once seeing that, i'm not sure how anyone could think that. he was out of his mind.

thanks for posting.
