"A few songs later, Vedder reportedly donned a President Bush mask and performed the anti-Bush song "Bushleaguer." According to Brown, Vedder then "impaled" (mounted) the mask on a microphone stand, swung the stand in the air, smashed it to the stage and stomped on it."

Total Disrespect!!
May Perl Jam enjoy its place along side the Dixie Chicks!!

I always hate it when singers/bands discuss politics. People go to a concert because they want to hear their favorite music, not because they want to think about politics. On the contrary, they go because it's a chance to forget about politics.

I said it once and I'll say it again, "Why ANYONE would spend hard earned money to go see this band, is beyond me".

Another example of complete gross ignorance of one's fan base.

"I don't know if you heard about this thing -- it's called freedom of speech, man. It's worth thinking about it because it's going away. In the last year of being able to use it, we're sure as [expletive] going to use it and I'm not going to apologize," Vedder said to cheers and applause.

This is some of the more stupid sh$t I have ever heard. The last year of being able to use your freedom of speech, Eddie? For crying out loud.

I guess Pearl Jam is trying to prove something. Like a little free publicity.

I hope somebody who saw this event has reported it to Secret Service people. To put the head of a current President on a stick and slam it on the stage - shows hostile intent towards the President, and usually requires a visit from SS. I certainly hope the idiot gets his stinking face on TV and says "I was a stupid idiot and I will never do this again". I don't care what your politics are. Even the "x42 haters" treated x42 like a joke - and we didn't put his head on a stick and slam it on a stage - at least I never heard of us doing anything similar.

This hatred of Bush is illogical - unrealistic!
