Pearl Jam Taking Over KNDD and KISW at High Noon

Turn your radio dial to 99.9 or 107.7 at lunch today and you’ll hear Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, Mike McCready, Jeff Ament, and Matt Cameron discuss Pearl Jam’s evolving creative process.


Never before have Pearl Jam fans had such an up-close, in-depth look at what goes on behind the scenes when Ed, Jeff, Matt, Mike and Stone are in the studio and on the road. Listen October 13th at noon and hear songs from the new Pearl Jam album, "Backspacer," and exclusive live material from Pearl Jam's summer tour last year. Plus, we'll take an inside look at the writing of the new songs on "Backspacer" and the making of the new album itself.

The band’s 60-minute airwaves assault is more than a plug for their new record, of course. The one-off show—and a related limited-edition t-shirt—will benefit the country’s leading hunger-relief charity, Feeding America. The organization expects proceeds to “translate to roughly 210,000 meals nationwide.” (The band donated $1 per ticket to their two KeyArena shows as well, which retail partner Target matched.)

After the show, visit http://pearljamradiotakeover.com/ for bonus interviews, live music, and more.

Too bad the interviews won’t be live. If they were, Eddie could talk about joining the Who’s Roger Daltrey last night on the Showbox SoDo stage. Anybody catch that?

Pearl Jam Taking Over KNDD and KISW at High Noon
Yes, I did catch that. :)

I was surprised at the level of security outside for a club show (security guards handling, poking through and opening the contents of purses, bags and packs?!), but after they found my camera I told them it wasn't a pro model, just consumer, no auto flash, and they let it in. My own pix turned out OK and my batteries just about died, but someone else apparently had a fresh charge and more room on their drive:
