[HD] Pearl Jam Life Wasted (late show with david letterman)

WATCH IN HD. Pearl Jam performing Life Wasted on Letterman's show

[@michaelford1418]

Classic PJ sounding 10x better than the record

[@reclusiveperson9409]

Man they nailed it 100%. Sounds extremely close to the studio/album version.

[@trickster_qc]

They sure did! Even Stone is fully into it.

[@mikehowton707]

Matt's drumming is superb on this

[@robertpowell3847]

If you want to talk drums, my favorites, Neil, Taylor, Matt, Mr. Bonham, and Mr. Phil Collins

Sorry, Moon

This is my favorite Pearl Jam era, they found their groove at this time, they are getting more badass with age.

[@ROCKNINJA777]

I love this era too. It is beautifully marked by Eddie's newly-grown-out hair. They started rocking again and finally brought back their best songs into their live shows' setlists (Alive, Jeremy, Garden). However, Pearl Jam circa 1991-1993 are one of the best rock bands of all time. Different league.

[@dch047]

oh how i thank God for such a great band. not just good musicians, but good human beings.

[@TheThisosMeta]

McCready's solo starts at 2:43 and he killed it the rest of the song going crazy at the end

[@flipjupiter1]

One of my fav solos in one of my fav PJ songs. So awesome. I wish it was a minute longer.

[@samrogers5256]

Eddie is so good live his shit almost sounds dubbed over

[@flipjupiter1]

One of the many things I always loved about Pearl Jam is how amazing they sounded live. There are very few hard rock bands that sound good live. Pearl Jam is definitely top 10 of all time.

[@oceansjenny]

The second coming of Pearl Jam. 1992 and 2006 they killed it. Been a bit “tired” since then.

[@gc8972b]

indeed.

[@Faks.09]

2023 is amazing 😍 Ed adds so much efforts these days

[@ledzep147]

Matt Cameron demonstrates in this video why he is the best rock drummer in the world. His style doesnt suit the old Pearl Jam stuff but the man is an absolute animal

[@ROCKNINJA777]

he sucks

[@paulisland8429]

Ed NAILS it here!!!

[@paulisland8429]

Actually that's unfair, they all fucking nail it!

[@fiveyearwinterkiss]

thank god pearl jam is still around

[@klx125cross]

Does anyone in that audience even know what they just saw? Probably one of the best performing rock/grunge bands of all time absolutely kill it and all they did was clap haha

[@villain3131]

Look up Pearl Jam on Letterman doing Present Tense , you’ll see a better audience participation 🎸

[@flipjupiter1]

The audience is all unemployed middle-aged women who have no idea what's going on.

[@rogeroga]

Better vocal performance than the record

[@rickstalentedtongue910]

One of my top five PJ albums, and that is saying allot. This performance is lights out.

[@edtoscani]

That fill at 2:03 though

[@flipjupiter1]

Sick.

[@antipsychosoup6709]

Man, watching this 15 years later still gives me chills and reminds me how much I needed this at the time. 24, my mom had just died of cancer, I'd just broken up with a girlfriend, and I had no idea what I was going to do with my adult life. It seemed like everything in my life was unstable. The one constant was PJ continuing to kick ass and blow my mind, just like they had for the 15 years prior and have for the 15 years since. This album and the 3 shows I saw on the 2006 tour really helped get me thru that tough phase. Cheers, fellas!

[@NickFortier]

I hear ya there dude! For that shared reason, I rank this song #1 by pearl Jam for me. Gone is pretty good too off the same album. It's like they write their shit just for that one guy who hears it , and gets it. Peace out girlscout love from Canada🇨🇦🤪

[@propjoe1060]

There is no more kickass rock and roll band on this planet than Pearl Jam. Great stuff!

[@ledzep147]

Just a kick-ass rock and roll band. Fantastic

[@MarcosMacieloficial]

I love this era, the live... Wow

[@thunderFence]

Killed it

[@laurawatters914]

I love this Pearl Jam performance on David Letterman, all of their performances are outstanding on David Letterman Show!! I absolutely love Pearl Jam, love the 2006 era!!

[@laurawatters914]

I absolutely love this song!! Mike McCready and his 🎸 playing AMAZING!!

[@kareybarey]

this song was written about Johnny Ramone, so Stone is doing a lil mimicing of Johnny's style. ;)

[@heusker]

Check out Stone's awesome moves: 1:11--Slow-mo freak out; 2:55--No No NO; 3:20-Chompy Chomp.

[@trickster_qc]

🤣🤣

[@sputz357]

So guitar-hero like. 😂

[@tonymyers7498]

Love this early Pearl Jam

[@Spetsnaz--21]

Another album!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!!! :D

[@Technickcall]

Beyond tight

[@UrbanMonkey55]

I just thought about this performance and looked it up. I remember seeing this and thinking it was a real return to form for these guys after a couple sort of lackluster albums. Pretty rockin.

[@gregorypatricksmith8611]

Fucking awesome

[@scotblair]

ON POINT!

[@outlaw6066]

Woohoo Matt Cameron has a Mike Bordin snare! Awesome snare that is. : ) Great vid quality btw.

[@michaelmestres9661]

Matt Cameron - Fantastic.

[@TheKorfish]

from the looks of it its looks like a modified version of a fender telecaster.

[@harvtron]

@darkstarmarvel2 Yeah I don't know what it is but the whole video is doing it.

[@BOBPOPROCK]

priceless: i can do that! hahahah

[@kernowrock555]

I bet that shook the foundations of 'Letterman' house!......... maybe they shoulda played Leatherman...at 'Lettermans' !! ha!

[@diegoguedes8203]

Matt cameron a máquina humana

Does anyone know what guitar Stone is using?

[@hopenesswiththelife6422]

Aqui o Pearl jam sem frescura, mostra a influência dos ingleses THE WHO

[@Spetsnaz--21]

Holy shit..

[@harvtron]

Is it me or is there something wrong with the playback of this video? I'm not sure what it is but, the image keeps skipping. The sound works fine just the image is not working.

[@robertpowell3847]

He's right behind Neil peart that's his influence

[@dakota23750]

@harvtron .....sorry but i totally agree with you harvtron, except i dont think it is darkstarmarvel2's fault...to be honest i think you tube sucks ever since they changed it..everything freezes or skips like you said...dont know if ya'll have facebook too but it is just as bad....guess they feel if "its NOT broken then change it all around" so sick of the internet..Great Video/Song though...Eddie is the best, noone sings the way he does...thanks for the post...peace dakota :)
