Pearl Jam

The value of a freshwater pearl can vary based on factors such as size, shape, color, lustre, surface quality, and overall desirability. On average, freshwater pearls can range from $10 to $1000 or more per strand or individual pearl. It is recommended to have pearls assessed by a professional appraiser to determine their specific worth.

Pearl Jam is a Grunge Band, Green Day a Punk. Punk is a very simple music style, grunge isn't. Basically Pearl Jam's music is more complex. So Pearl Jam is a better band. But in the end, it's all about taste.

Nirvana has surpassed 50 million albums sold

Yes, but in a good way.

When Chris Cornell and some members of Mother Love Bone(MLB) finished Temple of the Dog, with Eddie Vedder as guest singer. Chris Cornell played in Sound Garden. Stone Gossard(MLB), Jeff Ament(MLB) and Eddie Vedder started Pearl Jam with Mike McCready.

---------------------------------------------------

It's not known for sure. A few theories:

Vedder's grandmother's name was Pearl and she was married to a Native American that influenced her cooking style. She had a recipe for preserves that included a Native American hallucinogenic substance (Peyote), hence, Pearl Jam. This is widely thought of as BS that Ed told to Rolling Stone.

Another theory is that the members thought it would be funny to have frat boys wearing t-shirts that had the slang for, uh, a male bodily fluid on them.

The one we believe is this one, straight from Ed:

"I remember throwing words and meanings around for band names,..... I was writing songs daily and they seemed more important than the name of the band,.... I didn't grasp at the time how representative it may become,....not to mention we were just making a little record that few people would ever hear,......

so the words came, 2,... one of which was Pearl. The name of my great grandmother,..... married to a contortionist...... He used to fit himself into a suitcase.... One in a long line of peculiar individuals.

Pearl is also a surfing term when you go headfirst and eat it on the face of a wave....

Janis Joplin's greatest record was called Pearl,..... And of course, Earl the Pearl Monroe who shared the court with Phil Jackson I believe,.... (I often tell people that it was Phil's initials that led us to our name..... ) I thought that was much better than the rumor that Pearl Jam was some sort of slang for "ejaculated liquid"..... harsh,.....

No,..... I feel that the best justification for the name is in reference to the pearl itself,... and the natural process from which a pearl comes from,...... Basically, taking excrement or waste and turning it into something beautiful,...... This is how our band began,..... taking emotions that we wrestled with personally and letting them evolve into songs,..... In this way the songs became vehicles in which to deal with it all,..... Add the volume of loud instruments, amplified vocals,..... moving chord changes,.... And it wasn't just sh*t anymore,.... It was kind of beautiful,.... powerful,,...... UNCULTURED! As Johnny Rotten would say later, "Anger is an Energy...... And Sh*t can be Beautiful. The proof is in the pearl."

i heard they make about 900,000. that's just what i heard

Pearl Jam recorded the cover of Last Kiss on their album No Code and Yield in the year 1998. The song was originally sung by the musician Wayne Cochran.

They went through a number of different drummers:

Matt Cameron (Soundgarden, Skin Yard) played on the original demos before Ten.

Dave Krusen played on the album Ten.

Matt Chamberlin played live with them before being replaced.

Dave Abruessezze was Chamberlins replacement. He played on VS. and Vitalogy.

Jack Irons (Red Hot Chili Peppers) replaced Abruessezze and played on No Code and Yield.

Matt Cameron after the split up of Soundgarden and the leaving of Jack Iron was made the new drummer and is the current drummer playing on Binaural, Riot Act, Pearl Jam and their new album in production.

Seattle, Washington. Most likely, but google it. You'll get much more reliable souces there.

The most recent figure I could find, from 2011, valued the company at $4.239 billion US dollars.

The last kiss isn't a real story Eddie just bought the album a while ago and always liked the song so he and the band (pearl jam) redid the song last kiss

Yes

Probably not. It's actually a remake of an old 1950's song, and back in the fifties there was a spate of those tragic 'die in an auto accident' songs.

The song is not credited on any of their albums. They sung it on the "Vote for Change" Tour. Their doesn't seem to be any "Vote for Change" tour album. You can go to Youtube and see their live performance of the song.
