Eddie Vedder
On June 21, 2011, Pearl Jam’s front man Eddie Vedder performed a sold out show at The Beacon Theatre in New York. Upon his arrival, he was greeted by dozens of die hard Pearl Jam fans. Eddie was a bit too mobbed to take photos with everyone, but he shook our hands and had a member of his personnel reach out to the fans to collect one item each from us that Eddie would sign once he was safely off the street and out of the New York heat. Very classy! After the jump, see which album I got signed by Eddie Vedder.

Tame Impala
If you are not familiar with the psychedelic grooves of Australian rockers Tame Impala, you should acquaint yourself immediately. Sonically you’ll hear the music of Cream meets Pink Floyd and vocally you’ll hear a mixture of John Lennon and George Harrison of the Beatles!

The tracklist via Pitchfork Media is:
Innerspeaker Deluxe Edition:
Disc 1 (Original Album):
01 It Is Not Meant to Be
02 Desire Be Desire Go
03 Alter Ego
04 Lucidity
05 Why Won’t You Make Up Your Mind?
06 Solitude Is Bliss
07 Jeremy’s Storm
08 Expectation
09 The Bold Arrow of Time
10 Runway, Houses, City, Clouds
11 I Don’t Really Mind
Disc 2 (Extraspeaker):

Alex Trimble of Two Door Cinema Club
Two Door Cinema Club’s debut album “Tourist History” has already secured a spot in my top 10 favorite albums of 2010 and it’s about to get even better! On September 20, 2010 (my birthday!), TDCC is releasing a deluxe edition of “Tourist History” featuring a bonus disc of remixes (and 1 B-side). The track list is:
01. Kids
02. I Can Talk (French Horn Rebellion Remix)
03. Come Back Home (Is Tropical Remix)
04. Undercover Martyn (Jupiter Remix)
05. I Can Talk (Moulinex Remix)
06. What You Know (Cassian Remix)
07. Come Back Home (Ted & Francis Remix)
08. Something Good Can Work (Ted & Francis Remix)
09. Undercover Martyn (Softwar Remix)
10. Something Good Can Work (The Twelves Remix)
The Ted and Francis remix of “Something Good Can Work” is my favorite remix of the year, and the album sounds like a greatest hits record instead of a debut album. The band rocks live and they are all super nice. If this doesn’t convince you, I don’t know what will.
However, if you are not sold by my glorious praise you can sample the merchandise by downloading a free mp3 of their non-album track “Hands of My Cash, Monty.” by signing up on Two Door Cinema Club’s mailing list.
