Hot off the presses!  A week from now, this entire show will be broadcast on PBS (July 28th, check listings).  However, here is Dave's "standout performer" performance from that concert.  Enjoy it a week early people!

I know there are some "jam" jokes I should make here, but I won't.  Partly because it'd be too obvious and mostly  because I can't think of anything. 

Dave Grohl and Alain Johannes were invited onstage at the end of Pearl Jam's set at Werchter 2010 (Belgium) recently to help out with the MC5 song Kick Out The Jams.  Alain got to play guitar.  Dave got to bang a tambourine (Hey, mister tambourine man!  Play a song for me!).  Okay, just got to say a few things.  First of all, this is my favorite MC5 song (by far).  Second, I actually used to cover this song in a former band of mine, but that was a long time ago.  Third, Pearl Jam are one of my top five favorite bands.  In fact, I had a dream once where I almost got to play with them.  At the local civic center (kinda wierd).  Mike McCready gave me one of his Orange amps.  Or was it Stone Gossard?  I don't remember, it was a dream and it also was a long time ago.  The point I'm trying to make here is that I literally have dreamed of playing with Pearl Jam.  Dave Grohl on the other hand actually gets to play with them.  Probably whenever he wants.

I hate Dave Grohl.
