Eddie Vedder Fretboard Photo Outtakes

I just got my Fretboard issue featuring Eddie Vedder. It is a great read for anyone who is a fan of Pearl Jam, Ed Ved and guitars. Man I wish that I could take a look at all their gear sometime…I probably wouldn’t know what to do with myself…

Well my love for Pearl Jam continued last night. Pearl Jam played at the Pacific Colosseum for the first time since 1998 and it seemed like an old school show.
