Once, Pearl Jam had standards. They were true left-wingers, playing concerts at Ralph Nader rallies, and lecturing fans about the evils of George Bush.
Now, Pearl Jam is shilling for mainstream Democrats, like Jon Tester.
From Tester’s website:
BILLINGS, Mont. – The legendary rock band Pearl Jam returns to Montana for their only non-festival concert in America this year, and the best seats in the house are now available only at jontester.com.
In fact, for the first time in Pearl Jam’s history, two lucky fans will get to enjoy the September 30 concert in Missoula on stage with the band.
The U.S. Senate campaign of Big Sandy farmer Jon Tester is offering the prize tickets through an unprecedented “Best Seats in the World” sweepstakes. One lucky prize-winner and a guest will sit in recliners on-stage with the band, and receive VIP passes, admission to preshow events with Tester and members of the band, roundtrip travel to Missoula, and hotel accommodations.
Sellouts!
