PEARL JAM'S EDDIE VEDDER TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS!
Eddie Vedder – political activist, soundtrack composer, sports fan and sometime rock star – is soon to be the subject of Uncut ’s regular An Audience With...feature, and we’re after your questions.
So, we wonder, is there anything you’ve always wanted to ask him?
Where’s his favourite place to surf?
What’s the prize record in his apparently huge collection of classic vinyl?
What does he remember about playing with The Who at the Royal Albert Hall in 2000?
Send your questions to uncutaudiencewith@ipcmedia.com by Wednesday, May 20.
Your best questions and of course, Vedder's answers will be published in a future edition of the magazine.

I just submitted:
With almost 20 years of history of the band, there's been one question that presumably tens-of-thousands would like to know the answer to. Pearl Jam's popularity skyrocketed in the early 90's, especially with the amazing, energetic, tight live performances on early unofficial bootlegs.
The drummer Dave Abbruzzese was let-go (fired) in 1994, and that spawned a huge shift in the musical direction for the band's future albums, and a big difference in the way older songs are performed. Can you answer, now 15 years later, why this happened? Personality conflicts? Musical conflicts?
When the drumming personnel changed, for myself and my friends, it was as dramatic as a change of singers, yet it's lack of reference by the band could only be compared to when Bewitched changed "Darrin" on the audience without notice or reference.

traduction de l'article en français sur la mésaventure de Jeff:
Le bassiste de Pearl Jam a été victime d'un vol
Jeff Ament, le bassiste de Pearl Jam, a été victime d'un vol à l'entrée d'un studio d'enregistrement à Atlanta.
Selon la police, trois hommes armés de couteaux ont attaqué Jeff Ament et trois autres employés, lorsque ceux-ci sont arrivés pour entrer dans le studio Southern Track, le mois passé.
Le rapport de police déclare que les criminels ont cassé trois vitres d'autos, volé un Blackberry, trois ordinateurs et ont demandé de l'argent. Ils ont donc réussi à voler 3 000$ en argent et des objets valant 4 000$ en tout.
Jeff Ament a essayé de partir, mais l'un des criminels l'a poursuivit et l'a jeté par terre. Le bassiste a subit une blessure à la tête et s'est fait voler son passeport. Même si les caméras de surveillance étaient fonctionnelles, aucune arrestation a été faite jusqu'à maintenant.
