Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was Mike Mccready's band pre-Pearl Jam?

Answer: Shadow

The Rockfords are actually his side project. I believe some of his bandmates from Shadow are also in the group. Kids is actually the band Johnny Depp was in when he was a kid. And Insanity I made up- it probably is a band, but not one I know of :)

2. What was Ed Vedder's band pre-Pearl Jam?

Answer: Bad Radio

Yep, Bad Radio it was. He played with them when he lived in San Diego.

3. What is the name of Pearl Jam's fan club?

Answer: Ten Club/Vitalogy Health Club

If you're not a member you should check out the website, www.tenclub.net or pearljam.com.

4. True or False: Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers has been a recorded Pearl Jam drummer.

Answer: false

Chad Smith has played on stage with Pearl Jam but has never recorded with them. So many drummers, so little time ;)

5. Which band were Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard NOT in together?

Answer: Mudhoney

Let's see.. it all started with Green River, then on to Mother Love Bone, then Temple of the Dog, and now Pearl Jam. Mudhoney has Mark Arm and Steve Turner, the other two members of Green River.

6. What was Pearl Jam's orginial name?

Answer: Mookie Blaylock

"Ten", their first album, was named after Mookie's jersey number.

7. Which drummer has NOT played with Pearl Jam (on stage or in studio)?

Answer: Taylor Hawkins

Taylor Hawkins is actually a guitar player and drummer for The Foo Fighters. Dave Krusen was the drummer on "Ten", but left the band shortly after the record was recorded. Dave Abbruzzese was the next drummer for albums "VS" and "Vitalogy". Jack Irons was the third drummer for the record "No Code". Matt Cameron is the fourth (recorded) drummer and has been on the last three records. And hopefully he's here to stay ;)

8. What movie did Ed, Jeff, and Stone have "supporting roles" in?

Answer: Singles

They played Matt Dillion's bandmates in the movie. "A compliment for us is a compliment for you," says Eddie, the drummer, to Cliff, Matt Dillion's character, about a review that wasn't so flattering to Cliff. Alice in Chains and Chris Cornell also have cameos in the movie.

9. Which band is not a side project of the boys in PJ?

Answer: Tribute

Three Fish was/is Jeff's side project. Wellwater Conspiracy is Matt Cameron's, and Brad is Stone's.

10. Okay, here's an easy one to end the quiz. Which album does NOT belong to Pearl Jam? (as of 12-3-02)

Answer: Dead Again

"VS" was their second album, released in 1993; "Yield" was their fifth, released in 1998; and "Riot Act" is their seventh, released in 2002.
