Last week was a pretty big one for taking photos, as well as U2 and Kanye West i also photographed Pearl Jam and Kings of Leon for Triple J.

It was quite a thrill seeing Pearl Jam again. I saw them at the Entertainment Centre in 1998 and was a massive fan in the early nineties. It was quite strange seeing these grown up men on stage, not the daggy young guys i remember from my youth.

After three songs the photographers were escorted from the venue so i didn’t get to see as much as i would’ve liked. Being the dork i am i logged in to YouTube when i got home and watched all the old Pearl Jam videos i could find. It brought back memories of when i used to tape Rage every weekend. I’ve seen those early Pearl Jam videos so many times. They really are an awesome band.

Here’s a performance of Alive on Saturday Night Live from 1992:

And here’s a performance of Alive from this year (14 years later!), with a nice intro from Eddie Vedder explaining the song:

Pearl Jam’s support act was Kings of Leon who i’ve seen several times now. I do like them, especially their second album, even if their stage presence leaves something to be desired. I guess you can get away with a lack of crowd interaction when you’re so damn pretty.
