PJ in the West Wing, 1994
Mark and Ed at the White House
President Bill Clinton, a musician himself, invited Pearl Jam to the White House on April 9, 1994. It's unclear just what they talked about, but they took a hungover, stoned Mudhoney (who were opening up for them at the time) along and Mudhoney singer Mark Arm wrote a pretty hilarious article about it. While the White House staffer made the 'Honeys sit out the visit with the Prez, Arm did note PJ came out of the visit with tons of Presidential merchandise (the White house condom thing is a joke, too bad) and some nifty snapshots in the press room at the ubiquitous podium (see photo at right). posted October 2004
Here's a photo of Mark and Ed in the White House press room:
