I don't understand why there are no more comments!! This is freakin' Eddie Vedder!!! I don't care what song he sings on this album- it's for A GOOD CAUSE!! And I'm sure he has other tings to do. Props to you, Mr. Vedder. I am a 45-yr. old female who was eternally turned on to alternative rock (back in the day), solely because of you, and your band. I loved the music, the looks, everything!! You changed me for the good , at a bad time in my life! And to this day, I own almost every CD (TEN will always be the best)- Point being, you guys still kick-ass, and take the time for a cause- why are there no more comments?? Are you people dead?? And, yes, I was blessed by seeing you guys live years ago- keep rockin'- I'll always be a fan!!!! (On a personal note, Mr. Vedder- you are a superior person in "real life" too!!)
