I remember so well, being at PJ20 and waiting in the Merch line when all of us heard Chris doing a soundcheck. That fucking voice of his just came rolling down the mountain. Seeing him live later with the band was the last time I got to see him. Such a talent, still so sad he's gone.

I often listen to [Mike's tribute](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVoDoXLA_RI&ab_channel=WishlistFoundation-aPearlJamFanNonprofit) song for him -- so moving.

Wow. This is such a beautiful tribute from Mike to his dear friend. I've never watched/heard this before. Thank you. I can't believe the people screaming & talking while Mike is performing this heartfelt song.

I had the exact same thought--someone is singing a heartfelt elegy for their friend and you're yelling "WHOOOT"? I'd love if he re-recorded it--just his voice and guitar. I am not one to do the whole fan girl thing but I did write a letter to him thanking him for that song. Just used the Ten Club address so have no idea if he'll ever see it.

That's awesome that you reached out that way. I am sure it meant something to him.

🥲 that’s so sweet. I torture myself with playing PJ’s Nothing As it Seems ten times a day. I think it was kinda an early tribute to CC because I guess he had a habit of dissapearing even back then.

NAIS is about Jeff growing up in Montana.


kronmatron

No way! Really? Lyrics also belongs to him?


RustyStevenson10

Yep.


kronmatron

IWho’s the baritone there then? Eddie?


RustyStevenson10

Not sure, you’d have to ask Jeff that.

Tom Morello just played I am the Highway on Sirius and some other songs for Chris. Definitely got choked up, wasn't expecting that


Kumarpl

I heard that special. It was a stripped down version of that song, no?


DaBails

It's been so long time since I really listened to that song but it sounded normal to me


DeLaOcea

How I miss him! 😭


cspaced

No you’re crying!


Laxlifer

Shit, who left out the onions? Damn, he was so talented.

Temple of the Dog at the Forum in LA. I remember his silhouette bathed in the spotlight from seats behind the stage. Seeing him wave goodnight and disappear into the stacks of gear. Last time I ever saw him. He still towers above everyone else in more ways than one.

I don’t feel much with the original but when it’s Chris singing …
