[@entertain7us148]

never thought I'd see Eddie and Stone fanboying over Chris Cornell. "He's got a nice chest, too, geez..." this interview is priceless

[@Crack_the_Skye]

It's because Cornell was the -it- guy in the Seattle scene then.

[@entertain7us148]

Joe M. Yeah, most people felt they weren't worthy to call him by his first name. He was simply known as 'Cornell'.

[@godhatewatching4107]

Chris Cornell is dead :( R.I.P. CHRIS!

[@ashleybarloweNC]

Chris was like a God around Seattle. I've never heard ANYONE say one foul word about Cornell. Man, his passing hit me hard. I wish I knew what he was going through that led to suicide. He seemed so full of life. You just never truly know.......

[@barbaraautrey7363]

I was a little bummed that they didn't mention the fact that Chris Cornell wrote "Hunger Strike" and brought Eddie into Temple of the Dog to duet with him, catapulting Eddie into the scene.

[@dillimeinbilli]

"He's a beautiful person" "He's got a nice chest too, Jesus". We know boys, we know. I love Stone's sarcasm and Eddie's stoned smiley spaced out face and his eyebrows - the arched eyebrows are the key to those typical Vedder expressions. "I left the towels kind of messy"

[@ChaplainDMK]

He actually looks like he just thought up of something to say the second Stone started talking haha

[@reginaegut1119]

Protect this interview at all costs. It’s perfection. Eddie and Stone have a great connection and friendship.

[@slick222]

There's a fair bit of tension in there too. Eddie has an aw shucks thing on top but there's a real snob underneath, and he judges Stone's unvarnished opinions - "we like high-energy, I liked bad radio hits, dreamweaver was my #1 song" and the like. Stone is the opposite. Cynical and smart on the surface but very honest and open underneath, even a little naive, and not nearly as self-conscious as Eddie. Stone chafes at being judged by Eddie because he thinks Eddie is a bit of a tool, less cool in a Seattle rock music scene context but he also knows Eddie's someone he has to learn to respect. You can already see Eddie feeling Stone is not qualified to lead him, and it flipped not so much later. This interview captures the heart and soul of PJ, which is Eddie and Stone, before they learned how to handle themselves around other.

[@joandra]

I don’t believe there’s friendship! I believe there’s a common denominator which is the bands success! I think they learned to live around each other to this day! They are completely different individuals and it’s ok! I just don’t see them bond or spend quality time as friends together! I believe they are just good coworkers!

[@gloriaburks5184]

He said enjoyed calling instead of his agent! Very down to Earth and later we were able to meet at a Seattle Pearl Jam show so he was able to put a face to the voice on the phone 📱.

[@drvee1983]

Is there anything better than a stoned, mumbling, Eddie Vedder and Stone Gossard talking about the present time of Pop and Kurt, Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Peppers, and the time of where they were in music? As the Hairhead bands crumbled around them, this time capsule interview of pop music in 1991 is thankfully preserved. They didn't want to be Pop, but they blew your hair back. They were prophetic, without trying to be, as they stumbled, laughed, and rocked your mind into the 90's and beyond. They WERE SubPop. Thanks for posting.

[@mandar1n__]

It’s fascinating how serious they were about their music and vision from the very start. the greatest bands to grace this planet ❤

[@mrgreenland21]

When people talk greatest guitarists of all time it’s almost always from a technical standpoint. Imo the ability to write riffs is what’s going to make you successful and loved. Stone Gossard is a perfect example of this. All three of his bands were extremely successful and him and Jeff were the anchor of said bands

Eddie ROCKED that crowd, owned it, and obviously, Stone, Jeff, and Mike held it all together.

I guess that's when he "grew up." At this point he's still a kid.

[@JayMoreau]

That was the last album I bought, they nosedived after Stone stopped writing the songs.

[@thesecondYouTube]

They need to go back to Stone and Jeff writing the majority of the music. Fuck are they boring otherwise.

[@charlietwotimes]

Vs and Vitalogy were easily the best PJ albums (I do have a dirty love of Yield I can't get past tho) & that's down to Stone and Jeff. Like Green River. Like Mother Love Bone. I really liked Ed "up front" until he inherited Bono's Messiah complex. His deification most definitely took PJ away from the Stone/Jeff axis of talent to the overly superficial AOR dad rock of today.

[@lenlawler]

Wow, Stone is impressively passive aggressive here.

[@wertor666]

Like every stone on the earth

Glad you see it too so do 96 others now!

Man i miss the 90's!! Music was great, people actually talked to one another, MTV played music and beavis and butthead ruled. So glad i was a teenager during this time.

Eddie is the most woke stoned person ever

[@radiantDF]

[@HutTwoHike]

This, a year after they met. Stone, "I think were gonna make some great records. No doubt in my mind."

[@benashworth7653]

[@234funk]

"i left the towels kinda messy. does that count?" brilliant.

[@GeriDoc8]

Brilliant? You need to explore more

[@CamilleGG451]

LOVE that line...!!

[@ina.aaahhh]

16:41 "I'm okay, I'm standing, I'm immortal!" oh Eddie...

[@SteveGraves10]

I would have given a million bucks to hear this in the mid-1990s when I was writing my dissertation. It was partly inspired by exactly the sorts of questions these two were answering. I love the goofy energy of Ed.... unaffected... and the genius juice was certainly flowing with that energy. Thanks!

[@williamdaniels8714]

17:18 Watch Eddie's face after he says "But then again, we don't demand." He's just like "What the fuck did I just say?" Watch how he moves his hand in question too lol

[@heyitsme6067]

He was so damn cute

[@williamdaniels8714]

[@TingleTheAssassin]

Stone just hates the interviewer

[@Odd_Vocado]

That slow "don't give a fuck" blink of his eyes. Yep, he's slowly dying to get up and be done with it.

[@ulrikemayer6911]

oh how I love Eddies stoned grinning all the time...

[@askledhead]

This Interview took place 30 years ago today, a 26 year old Eddie and a 25 year old Stone, Damn time flies. ✌

[@semisweet9862]

I'll take both just transport me back to the 90s and make me older. I love Stone's attitude face.

[@AichElle]

Putting those CDs together one after the other hahahaha this is one of my favourite interviews I love all the Seattle bands interviews around this time the answers to questions are priceless!

[@PeterSavad]

These two need a comic book.

[@davefan16]

7:35 look at eddie

[@turnleftaticeland]

he's counting how many times stone can say "you know" in one sentence

[@tonymanfredi6844]

davefan16 pretty much from start to finish.

[@SpiritsOfAnotherDay]

*Through the entire interview* Eddie is about to crack up laughing!
