I was saying 'Boo-urns'
A paragraph in a review of Pearl Jam's weekend shows in yesterday's Inquirer:
Their audience certainly has a clear idea of what Pearl Jam is and is not. Just ask the poor auxiliary keyboardist who accompanied Vedder on show opener "Life Wasted," drawing prolonged boos.
I know we're kind of assholes, but even Philadelphians don't boo random band members at concerts, do we?
Oh:
Editor's note: A review of Pearl Jam that appeared in Monday's Inquirer incorrectly characterized the audience's reponse to the keyboardist at Saturday's show. The audience was not booing Kenneth "Boom" Gasper, but cheering him on by chanting his nickname.
Fortunately, Duce Staley, Clarence Weatherspoon and Hugh Douglas didn't suffer the same editorial misjudgement during their time in Philadelphia.
Pearl jam gets refreshingly direct [Inky]
