I'm going to guess the reason he's so slow is that maybe public speaking makes him nervous and he smoked some of the good herb before coming out. Or, that he is a thoughtful individual. I'm leaning toward both as I've been a fan for over 10 yrs and have seen him live several times.
Not bad for a band the critics said would never make a gold record and split up in like two years. Peter doesnt believe in mainstream opinions, that's why he looks a bit bored. He laughed at the critics too.
@EmitFlestiKY that's true all of them are friends, It's probabley that pearl jam and nirvana will enter the rock and roll hall of fame in the first year of elegibility, nirvana would enter in 2014, wouldn't they?
@animal90sFreak5 there are personal opinions, for me It isnt a roll and roll hall of shame either, because a lot of bands that I loved were awarded like they deserved, but a lot of people were inducted many times and It's not fair, for instance jeff beck had entered as a yardbirds member, why he entered as a solo member again and so quickly? at the same time, deep purple the pioneer band in the heavy didn't do it. I want to make it clear that I agree with madonna's induction
Ed speaks always from the heart.
So moving speech❤ Thank you Eddie Vedder ❤❤❤
Him mentioning Cobain, brought a tear to my eye aswell as the audience =,)
very moving speech from vedder... great
Happy 59th Birthday Ed. 12/23/23.
LOVE LOVE LOVE that he mentions
Kurt Cobain (R.I.P.)
and Thom Yorke
all GODS
I wish I was there
eddie is my musical god. But i now realise hes funny too!!! wow he rules
R.E.M. is great!
Will put out a new album in a while =)
check out Zach de la Rocha behind Patti Smith at 6:25
5:26 Peter checks out scenery, just after michael jokingly ushers him to speak
Great speech because it's honest and from the heart and not scripted bullshit.
quite the contrary, when I hear Ed's voice I'm awake!
What would shock the hell out of me? Billy Berry shaves his brows bald and rejoins REM! That would be fucking awesome
de la Rocha? at 6.24
Peter Buck is so drunk. Look at him drinking that wine. He keeps drifting off looking into space and grabbing on to Bill Berry. What a sloppy drunk.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@kiopelus Yeah...kinda hard not to break down a bit when he said that.
the amazing part is that after a couple of years they became critic favourites. strange, huh?

Zack de la Rocha seems to be "claptonised" a lil' (behind Patti Smith)

jmactemin They did!!!!
Peter Buck looks like he doesn't give a fuck (2)
He also looks drunk. ahah. He's cool.
The rock and roll hall of fame is so incredibly silly and meaningless but I did really enjoy Eddie's speech. He seems like a very cool guy.

peter's drunk
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes, not a good speech. But I think he loved this band, so that might explain some of it.
Tesco hall of fame
steal from it
and spew
true
Never liked rem much. Ed Vedder fucking rules though!
Vedder is awful. Quite rude really to Bill Berry. He should have taken notes from Springsteen's brilliant induction speech for U2.
REM is good band but this guy just makes you want to Zzzzzzzzz
