Pearl Jam films new DVD
Posted by Patrick MacDonald at 12:35 PM
According to Billboard's "Inside Track" column, Pearl Jam filmed several recent shows in Italy for a new DVD, the first since 2003's "Live at the Garden." To heighten anticipation, the performances will not be made available as "bootleg" CDs, like most PJ concerts.
As a show last week in Torino, the band played its latest album, "Pearl Jam," its debut on Clive Davis' J Records label, in sequence for the first time. At another show, two days earlier in Milan, they covered Tom Waits' "Picture in a Frame."
The column also reports that Eddie Vedder's solo ukuele tune, "Goodbye," will be included on the soundtrack of "A Brokedown Melody," a surfing documentary spearheaded by singer-songwriter, and fellow surfing buddy, Jack Johnson. The documentary is due Nov. 14 from Brushfire, Johnson's recording company.
