i hate all these debates ebtween bands, you get the same thing with people going on about Alice in Chains and Nirvana, Metallica and Megadeth etc..Pearl Jam and U2 are totally different bands, who have completely varied musical paths and have had great success in what they do..how you can even compare them makes no sense..although if going by album sales, awards, tour success etc, U2 is more successful, but musical taste is individual

@Thanksandy agreed. thing is some idiots just cant seem to work that out and make it their buisness to trash other bands,, there are lots of bands i hate very sucessful bands but i dont waste my time trying to convince their fans how rubbish i think their fave band is as if my opinion was going to change their minds

Always great to hear other musicians discuss other artists. Sounds like a cool bloke.

@ayanni07 Pearl Jam may be shit compared to many other bands, and still i like 'em, and don't go to youtube videos to say that kind of ignorant comments

@saq428 that really is a complete nonsence.

[saq428]

@JendaHrbac U2 is and has been far more relevant than Pearl Jam. Both are great bands, but it's really no contest.
