I have a piece of his T-shirt! It had been torn while he surfed & as I held him before he turned to go back to the stage the piece of shirt hit me in the face & I grabbed it. Eddie was very aware of me being a woman surrounded by men & was very gentle with me & told the guys to take care of me & make sure I didn’t get hurt. They formed a circle around me for the whole show before he dived on us all anyway, but I really appreciated Eddies concern for me. When he got back on stage he was looking for me & they lifted me up & I blew him a kiss & he patted his heart, one of the greatest human beings ever. I was alone, but made lifetime friends there. I’m 55 now, thanks for reacting to such a wonderful memory.
Bruh this was like the first huge audience Eddie played for with Pearl Jam & he was in awe!!! The making of one of the greatest rock stars my generation will ever know, classic in every way!!! It doesn't get Eddie Vedder than this💯 Much ♥️from Bama 🙋 💕
Pinkpop is one of the longest running annual music festivals in the world with 50 years of history. This very moment where Eddie jumps from that camera rig was voted the greatest moment in all of those 50 years...It just doesn't get any more epic than this...
I'm still amazed that Eddie made it out of the 90s alive! I've been to 11 PJ shows, 7 were in the 90s. During those shows we were always questioning, "Well, is this the show that Eddie takes it too far?" He has since calmed down a lot! Lol
I saw them in 92 in a free concert at my university. It was raining, like in this video. He climbed up in the rigging, above the stage during Porch. I was terrified that he was going to fall, but it was so cool to see. He was like Tarzan up there. Lol!
@@hks2377 My first PJ was in 91 at Michigan State. That was also my first experience with the "new" genre of grunge/alternative. He did the same thing at that show! We thought he was going to die that night, but we were loving every minute! I've been a fan ever since! And Eddie was sooo hot! Lol
I saw a video where Eddie said he always thought that the cameraman was mad when in fact he was just giving directions to others to keep them both ALIVE(see what I did there, lol) Anyway, Ed was relieved to hear that the man wasn't mad at all.
Glad you got to witness some of the typical thrashing Pearl Jam. It's worth it to watch the Unplugged version of this song to hear the musicianship and see the toned down crazy. Plus, it's just a great song!
The band stayed at our squat in Amsterdam the year before Pinkpop, when they did the european festival tour in 92 we received free tickets for every one of their shows as a thankyou for giving them a place to crash in 91. They were great guys, and some of us stayed in contact with the band for years after.
Eddie Vedder met with the camera man in 2018. Since 1992 he felt bad because Eddie thought the camera man was mad at him for jumping of the camera crane. In fact the camera man was yelling to his crew to jump on the other end for balast... funny story which Eddie told the crowd in 2018. I was there both times, unforgettable.
Just unbelievable talent and vocals!! It’s amazing. I’d need an oxygen tank lmao. Adrenaline maybe. I’m sure it helped but to be able to still control your vocals after that is one of a generation type talent!! 👍
I was 12 too! I grew up with this music. I've been very blessed to have my parents and their love of music influence me today. The records were always playing in our house.
Eddie pours his heart and emotions out each and every time. Guy is a legend. Long live Pearl Jam. "I could not take, not just one day ... I know when I would not ever touch you, hold you, feel you, in my arms...Never again!"
Yayyy, thanks so much for reacting to this! Once and Why Go are also fantastic from this Pinkpop performance, and Alive and State of Love and Trust from the unplugged show!
Back in the day Eddie would be climbing up the lighting rigs and there’s a clip somewhere of mike saying that sometimes the band would worry cuz they’d lose sight of him during his antics, so badass!
There’s a video from a recent show where Eddie is talking about this dive. All these years he thought the camera guy was mad at him and he felt so bad 😂
Jamel_AKA_Jamal. Great one!! Got a couple more Pearl Jam Greats... - ONCE - REARVIEWMIRROR - GO - ANIMAL - DISSIDENT - IMMORTALITY - YELLOW LED BEDER IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER I GUESS WHICHEVER GETS THE MOST REQUESTS THEYRE ALL CLASSICS!! Love Eddie And Pearl Jam! Thanks and keep them coming!! 👍👍🔥🔥🔥
I became a 30 yr old single mom in 1991, although I heard a bunch of Grunge on the radio, & everyone heard about Cobain's death; your reactions have taken me on quite the (sad but deep) world of Grunge; I listen to Temple of the Dog Hunger Strike daily! Your reactions & music choice are great! Still hoping you react to Jethro Tull Aqualung! Thank you Jamel for sharing your journey & taking me on one!
Bruh!!!! I was just listening to this in the car this afternoon and was thinking I should suggest this after your other Pearl Jam reactions. Dope dope song and performance.
I was 16. Grew up on rage and wu tang and so many others. This is my absolute favorite Pearl Jam song and still one y favorite versions of this. Timeless version
Pure rock god. I saw Pearl Jam just once at Great Woods in Massachusetts back in either 2003-4ish and it was the best concert I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen a lot of legendary shows by a lot of bands. Eddie is apparently on record of saying it’s one of his favorite shows ever. This entire Pink Pop set was absolutely the best though. I’ve watched this whole concert more times I care to admit though.
Yeah I read something about that and I forget which magazine it was that they were talking about how he was screaming for other people to grab the end of the crane because if they didn't then he would have plummeted into the crowd with the cameraman and if the people didn't let go at the right moment right when he jumped then they were going to catapult the cameraman but thankfully everything went right in that moment...
First band i ever seen live, was 9 years old, Pearl Jam opened for the Rolling Stones, it rained hard AF on them and they played through it like champs, rain stopped as soon as The Stones came on, surreal.
04-29-1992 Dallas, TX - these guys - I think he was wearing the same outfit - hell I did! MOSHERS, DIVERS AND SURFERS! HELL YES!!! WOW x 100! Damn was I LUCKY!
Great performance, great review. To get a more recent vibe, check out their song Corduroy from their documentary Let’s Play Two 2016. Love your reactions to different types of music- appreciate it.
In an interview when they were still kinda new, they said the only issues they had was keeping Eddie out of the crowd, and out of the hospital because he was ALWAYS crowd surfing and climbing EVERYTHING!! Lolol😂😂😂
I was 14 and I was there in the crowd. This whole concert is still burned into my mind as one of the best things I've ever witnessed. You should definitely also check out "Rocking in the free world" that they closed this set off with: th-cam.com/video/7qkg56kYv6I/w-d-xo.html In that song he also made a reference to the LA race riots that followed the acquittal of the 4 policemen who beat up Rodney king that happened a couple of weeks before this concert: "There's a 1000 points of light for the colored man There's a kinder gentler policeman's hand"
Sadly I was too young to go to these sorts of concerts, I was born in 96. However after attending ACDC when I was 13 I realized how much live concerts had changed because I've technology, ever since then all the concerts I have been to I've always went for the moshpits and avoided technology because I'd hate to see the lively spirit old concerts had fade away completely.
Eddie was notorious for swinging his mic by the its cord. That loud popping you hear at the end of the video his him whacking his bassist Jeff Ament in the head.
Best concert ever bro....and i was there !....he literally jumped a few metres from where i was...(pogo pit) back in 1992 pinkpop landgraaf with eddy wearing his tivoli shirt
This song has a long and pretty spectacular instrumental break, which Vedder would often use to explore his space. In those clips where you see him climbing the set (famously at Lollapalooza in 1992), jumping into the crowd, or hanging from something, it was often during this song.
Jamal your awesome and i love your reactions to rock videos and songs...you give truthful feedback to music👍...And I'm a metal head...music is music...as long as its played from the heart!...that's my opinion anyway...
Lmao I love your concern for Eddie. My band used to get kinda wild like this (much smaller scale lol) One time we all just flopped on the floor the last note & someone’s grandma scolded us after our set saying we could’ve hurt ourselves lmfao. You reminded me of that show lol.
The camera man was totally cool, his seat has a very fine balance, he was pointing to the crew to add counter weight as Eddie climbed on, the counter weight had to jump off at the same time Eddie did. That was insane and they made it look easy. Classic Eddie, he has some epic climbs.
Wait ! No cell phones ? Today the kids would have been crushed by Eddie when he jumped because they would have been unaware because they had their faces in their phones.
![FIRST TIME HEARING Pearl Jam - Porch [Pinkpop 1992] REACTION | HE JUMPED IN THE CROWD!!! 😱😳](/img/n.gif)
Mike McCready is a criminally underrated guitarist, his work on the Mad Season album is amzaing
Dude, nail on the head. When I heard that solo he did here I thought exactly the same
I love that Mad Season record. Its so damn good.
I have no idea how he didn’t make the cut to be in Citizen Dick. :-)
@@alanpreston1822 I saw what you did there!!! (Truth? He would have stolen ALL the limelight from Cliff Poncier and he just couldn't take that!)
Believe he was on Temple of The Dog too? He’s incredible. As you said, criminally underrated.
I do miss the ‘90s. I’d love to do it all over again. 😊
You and me both.
Makes 3 of us. I was born in 79’ so the 90’s were fn amazing!! All around! Lol Love PJ and many other 90’s stuff!!
Fuck yes.
Me too. I'd start listening to good music sooner though. When PJ came out I was still listening to some really boring stuff. :D
Double as hard as in the '90ties!
I have a piece of his T-shirt! It had been torn while he surfed & as I held him before he turned to go back to the stage the piece of shirt hit me in the face & I grabbed it. Eddie was very aware of me being a woman surrounded by men & was very gentle with me & told the guys to take care of me & make sure I didn’t get hurt.

Pearl Jam still touring today
Bruh this was like the first huge audience Eddie played for with Pearl Jam & he was in awe!!! The making of one of the greatest rock stars my generation will ever know, classic in every way!!! It doesn't get Eddie Vedder than this💯 Much ♥️from Bama 🙋 💕

Thumbs up before even watching the reaction... just knowing what you are about to witness. ✌
👍🏾Thank You
@@jamelakajamal He said " YOLO" 😂😂😂 Indeed! Great reaction too btw, glad you got to see this.
👍🏾
Try lip sinking that!!

I love the old eddie vedder. His energy. His angry. I love him.
He's still just as pissed, he just channels it differently.
Eddie originally thought the camera man was telling him to get off, but he was trying to get it balanced
Temp Sitch yes you’re absolutely right! A great video!! Gotta love it!! 👍
I love how if you watch the cameraman he's telling the crew how to make this work and relaying instructions to go up and out over the crowd
@@tempsitch5632 that is a great video!
I saw a video where Eddie said he always thought that the cameraman was mad when in fact he was just giving directions to others to keep them both ALIVE(see what I did there, lol) Anyway, Ed was relieved to hear that the man wasn't mad at all.
@@dawnmagee3354 I love when he obviously askes the guy in the pit if he's okay and even later when he is back on stage he asks if the guy is okay
Most importantly, listen to Eddie’s voice towards the end of a live performance, crystal clear!
P.J. 30 years later , still kick ass.
Eddie was a competitive surfer ( Ocean and Boards type ) so he probably had mad balance skills and lung capacity .
Tracy Stubblèfield Exactly!
Not sure this would be possible anymore. Pure energy. PURE. ENERGY.
Glad you got to witness some of the typical thrashing Pearl Jam. It's worth it to watch the Unplugged version of this song to hear the musicianship and see the toned down crazy. Plus, it's just a great song!
I saw them open for the Chilli Peppers in a small venue in Toronto and man did they tear it up and leave a hell of an impression!
Eddie's a seasoned surfer ....he's good 😂😂😂 real surfer ... 🏄
Eddie is truly a great surfer. ✌🏼🎶
90’s mosh pits were the f*cking BOMB. So glad to have turned 18 in 1990. Once I had a car, I spent all my money on beer and concert tickets. ❤️❤️
The band stayed at our squat in Amsterdam the year before Pinkpop, when they did the european festival tour in 92 we received free tickets for every one of their shows as a thankyou for giving them a place to crash in 91. They were great guys, and some of us stayed in contact with the band for years after.
This is the Rock & Roll version of the saying “leaving it all out on the court/field”!! They gave it all!!
Eddie Vedder met with the camera man in 2018. Since 1992 he felt bad because Eddie thought the camera man was mad at him for jumping of the camera crane. In fact the camera man was yelling to his crew to jump on the other end for balast... funny story which Eddie told the crowd in 2018. I was there both times, unforgettable.
You need to see them live. I’ve seen them about 15 times in two states and three counties, awesome to say the least.
It’s super fun to watch someone experience my favorite music for the first time, love these videos. Thanks for posting!
Love how Mike McCready threw a little Hendrix Voodoo Child in that guitar solo.
I am just still amazed that they can do all that moving around and still have any breath to sing at all!!
Just unbelievable talent and vocals!! It’s amazing. I’d need an oxygen tank lmao. Adrenaline maybe. I’m sure it helped but to be able to still control your vocals after that is one of a generation type talent!! 👍
At this time, none of them thought they would ever perform in front of such a crowd.
One of their best Performances in their whole History....and in the History of Pinkpop....
Just one of the best performances in history.
Eddie turned “lead singer” into professional athlete in this clip. To run around like he did and still sing is impressive.
I was 12 too! I grew up with this music. I've been very blessed to have my parents and their love of music influence me today. The records were always playing in our house.
Eddie pours his heart and emotions out each and every time. Guy is a legend. Long live Pearl Jam.
"I could not take, not just one day
... I know when I would not ever touch you, hold you, feel you, in my arms...Never again!"

Damn, I miss these days in music.
There’s a video from a recent show where Eddie is talking about this dive. All these years he thought the camera guy was mad at him and he felt so bad 😂
Pinkpop 2018 is where he talks of this, and he is wearing a replica of the same shirt he wore at the 92 concert
Jamel_AKA_Jamal. Great one!! Got a couple more Pearl Jam Greats...
- ONCE
- REARVIEWMIRROR
- GO
- ANIMAL
- DISSIDENT
- IMMORTALITY
- YELLOW LED BEDER
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER I GUESS WHICHEVER GETS THE MOST REQUESTS THEYRE ALL CLASSICS!! Love Eddie And Pearl Jam! Thanks and keep them coming!! 👍👍🔥🔥🔥

🙏🏾
He looked like he was on his last spark of energy and his voice was strong and amazing.
I was 15 in 92' & Pearl Jams 10 album got me though a rough upbringing while in high school.
I’d love to see you react to “Just Breathe” by Pearl Jam. Just a beautiful song and has a much different feel to it than most of their songs.
Bruh!!!! I was just listening to this in the car this afternoon and was thinking I should suggest this after your other Pearl Jam reactions. Dope dope song and performance.
Gave the fans a great show👍🏾
Jamel_AKA_Jamal good catch though. Never noticed his foot slipping!!! Lol
@@jamelakajamal every time
I wasn’t at this exact show but I was at one on this tour. Same size crowd, outside, it was amazing.
2:48 = Mike’s Voodoo ode to Jimmy Hendrix.
One of the best live performances ever. So much energy.
Yeaaassss!!! THANK YOU!!!! I haven’t even watched yet but I’ve asked you for this 100 times. Thank you already ❤️
Another good pearljam song is oceans
I was 16. Grew up on rage and wu tang and so many others. This is my absolute favorite Pearl Jam song and still one y favorite versions of this. Timeless version

Look at the crowd.. they're literally steaming.
First band i ever seen live, was 9 years old, Pearl Jam opened for the Rolling Stones, it rained hard AF on them and they played through it like champs, rain stopped as soon as The Stones came on, surreal.
That’s why they called him “crazy Eddie” back in the day.
I was there. Up front, at the barrier. What an amazing show it was. Wish I could do that one all over again...
Love this channel....Jamel is a legend.....love from south London....
Dude, you are really cool, you truly get it.Please keep the great music going forward. Pass it on to others. 👍🥁☮
1:44 - "They're running around going crazy"
3:30 - Eddie Vedder: "Hold my beer"
It was raining that day. Probably why he slipped off the camera rig.
I think this the last song of the set, they'd been going like this for a while. I love Pearl Jam
Yeah I thought his Ankle was gone😅
This was the second to last song, they came back out and did an encore
@@emdet2234 that's nuts
Amber Kelly that’d be sweet if he reacted to the encore too, that was amazing - Rockin in the Free World
Ese es el mejor recital que he visto de Pearl Jam. Eddie estaba prendido fuego. Demás está decir que Eddie joven es todo lo que está bien 🔥
04-29-1992 Dallas, TX - these guys - I think he was wearing the same outfit - hell I did! MOSHERS, DIVERS AND SURFERS! HELL YES!!! WOW x 100! Damn was I LUCKY!
They still, STILL fkn kill it with this song live!
Yesss!!!! An All Time Classic!!!!! Great!!!! 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
Would love to see a reaction to their “Given to Fly” - love that song for so many reasons.
Jamal, you would really enjoy their induction into the Rock Hall. Would be a great tribute to them after your Journey.
Great performance, great review. To get a more recent vibe, check out their song Corduroy from their documentary Let’s Play Two 2016. Love your reactions to different types of music- appreciate it.
Corduroy is my favourite Pearl Jam song, too. It came as a surprise on that album with that weird song Bugs 😂
You can't beat Mike McCready! My God he was born with a guitar! I've seen PJ twice and both times over 3 hours of pure energy!
In an interview when they were still kinda new, they said the only issues they had was keeping Eddie out of the crowd, and out of the hospital because he was ALWAYS crowd surfing and climbing EVERYTHING!! Lolol😂😂😂
I was 14 and I was there in the crowd. This whole concert is still burned into my mind as one of the best things I've ever witnessed. You should definitely also check out "Rocking in the free world" that they closed this set off with:

"There's a 1000 points of light for the colored man
There's a kinder gentler policeman's hand"
You have to watch other live Porch performances. Eddie climbs the stage. Crazy! The man is so lucky he didn't fall and break his legs
Listen to Pearl Jam - Release. Good shit!
Bruh, if you could react to 'Deep' by Pearl Jam I'd be forever greatful. Lyrics are spectacular, music is top of their game. Just fucking amazing
This is my favorite song from Pearl jam cause Eddie and Mike always go crazy
I was there! 22 years old. One of the best days of my life!
Eddie's performance is so crazy and awesome that it's easy to miss just how LOCKED IN the rest of this band is during this performance. Jeeeeezussss.
Pearl Jam rocks! Leash is good too! ✌🏼💖🎶
“This why I love em” yessir!
Good call with this song. one of their best.
See what happens when you don't have phones at concerts.
Dan Finkel Yep the good old days this generation has no clue about. It’s sad. This is straight up old school all around!! Classic!! 👍
Dan Finkel true fuckin statement!!
Sadly I was too young to go to these sorts of concerts, I was born in 96. However after attending ACDC when I was 13 I realized how much live concerts had changed because I've technology, ever since then all the concerts I have been to I've always went for the moshpits and avoided technology because I'd hate to see the lively spirit old concerts had fade away completely.
AND YOU ARE HIGH AF!!!!😂
Pinkpop 1992 yeahhhhh, I saw this live at the Dutch tv
welcome in the 90 man that was the way to go!!
Eddie was notorious for swinging his mic by the its cord. That loud popping you hear at the end of the video his him whacking his bassist Jeff Ament in the head.
Best concert ever bro....and i was there !....he literally jumped a few metres from where i was...(pogo pit) back in 1992 pinkpop landgraaf with eddy wearing his tivoli shirt
This song has a long and pretty spectacular instrumental break, which Vedder would often use to explore his space. In those clips where you see him climbing the set (famously at Lollapalooza in 1992), jumping into the crowd, or hanging from something, it was often during this song.
How in hell can 5 people give this a thumbs down!!... pearl jam... Eddie Vedder... grunge and rock royalty!!!!
That’s what I’m talking about. Awesome energy from Pearl Jam/Eddie Vedder. You should watch the whole concert
That was some pretty good singing yourself. You sounded just like Eddie Vedder for a second.
Nice little piece of harmonizing there, Jamal 1:47
😅Thanks🙏🏾
Now this is the shit.. early 90’s PJ live..my god you can’t go wrong. It’s my favorite
Omg, that was one of the first festivals I went to!
Jamal your awesome and i love your reactions to rock videos and songs...you give truthful feedback to music👍...And I'm a metal head...music is music...as long as its played from the heart!...that's my opinion anyway...
You should react Alive always by Pearl Jam, the song, especially the final solo, is so powerful!!
Check out Just Breathe Live Austin City limits and you can see how much they have mellowed out over the years! 😂 Still a great band! ❤️
Karen Cogs I keep suggesting Jamel listen to anything off his Ukulele Songs. Longing to Belong is the best.
Lmao I love your concern for Eddie. My band used to get kinda wild like this (much smaller scale lol)
One time we all just flopped on the floor the last note & someone’s grandma scolded us after our set saying we could’ve hurt ourselves lmfao. You reminded me of that show lol.
The POWER of rock is on 10 in this video
The camera man was totally cool, his seat has a very fine balance, he was pointing to the crew to add counter weight as Eddie climbed on, the counter weight had to jump off at the same time Eddie did. That was insane and they made it look easy. Classic Eddie, he has some epic climbs.
That was when PJ ruled my world.
Pearl Jam - Garden ... Also off the "Ten" album. In my Top 20 songs of all-time.
They triumphed in 1992.
Band on liquor for sure.
I think that one of the most under rated songs from Ten is Garden. It's my favorite on the album
I'd gladly accept the honour of being flattened by Mr Vedder ;)
Just breath is great live.
I saw them in Hyde Park in 2010 they're awesome
Wait ! No cell phones ? Today the kids would have been crushed by Eddie when he jumped because they would have been unaware because they had their faces in their phones.
