hayden ---- pearl jam don't allow others to viedo them etc, bootleg concerts etc, because they want to be in control of their image and their sound, imagine artists wanting to control their own outcome how tragic and sellout like they are. i don't buy into any of these sell out bullshit arguments, it is all a load of crap. like laila i like music, i like music that i think is good. i don't care if they are on a major label or are completely self sufficient, if i like the music i will buy it.
and also the whole seattle scene whatever it happen(ed) to be was not a new thing. all of that style of music was happening in australia in the late 70s all the way through the 80s.
