    Dave A. carries this song and was the driving force behind their immaculate sound in this era. Anything that they played sounded tight and amazing bc of Dave's drumming. He was such a gifted composer of drum parts. He always knew the energy and character of a song.

    The significance of this whole thing is not lost at all in the moment. A song about police brutality, 30 years ago. Performed in Atlanta, GA, with the lead singer from King's X, an African-American singer whose band came from Texas. On the Eve of Easter. As Eddie said, "tomorrow morning, look in your history books and figure out why it's an important day to remember." This is a powerful moment on many levels. Most of which is the message isn't always the last truth, it's the blueprint for better life.
    I know this band is not religious, but the message was as close as it gets to here lies the hypocrisy. Do better unto each other. Persists that struggle 30 years later

      It’s funny, I’ve never been much a fan of Abbruzzese (ii prefer Irons and Krusen as drummers, Irons in PJ and Krusen in Hovercraft) and I was always incredibly impressed by Matt Cameron’s drumming and technical and artistic chops in Soundgarden, but Abbruzzese is just better suited to PJ than Cameron.

    What gets me every time I hear W.M.A., is “ Jesus greets me, looks just like me..” . ..And I use to think actually or metaphorically as in unwieldy in their positions of their mentalities so much so that Death, could greet them and if they didn’t want to they wouldn’t and couldn’t be moved , bent or swayed to agree come Hell or high waters.. Now I think I have no doubts that when he says “ Jesus, greets me, looks just like me..” that it is a truth .

    This is an incredible look back in time. Great work matching the different audio.
    You rarely see VHS matched up with sound board audio. Real mind fuck for us
    old timers LOL. For me Vitalogy was their peak. But VS vs Vitalogy is a toss up.
    Both incredible albums. And credit where due. Sure not every studio album from
    them was a masterpiece. But theres far better stuff than crap. I put PJ up there
    with Rush in terms of long term success. Same for The Stones. VERY few do it.

      @@adrianoa.j.5788 I hear you. As tech of all sorts I really do give you props on the syncing and editing you did to make this video. People who dont do such work have no idea how hard it can be. These days everything is digital with embedded time coding. In terms of the 90s grunge scene I have to give props to Alice In Chains. Not sure anyone can top that sound. Plus their Unplugged album was a masterpiece as well. So many great unplugged sessions. Probably the best thing MTV did for music. I still have no idea why they haven't issued the SRV session? Another band I feel was king in the 90s was Sound Garden. IMO SuperUnknown was a perfect album. I know I view the 90s rock scene with my own rose colored glasses. But I firmly believe it was a re-birthing of the rock music scene. But time moves on and new rock sounds are born. Look at Queens of the Stone Age and Songs for the Deaf. A new rock sound thats awesome as well. I could go on LOL

Possibly one of best debut rock albums to come out of the 90s. So crazy how No Rain was the hit off it. And imo the weakest track on the album. It reminds me how Dire Straits most popular mainstream album is Brothers in Arms and imo its their worst album. I also see your a Primus fan. Simply amazing band. You and me are also fans of Dillinger Escape Plan. Very not mainstream band LOL. Ire Works is a fav of mine. Im guessing your not here in the states by your videos.
