Overview

It's a little bit hard to fathom that Pearl Jam have been rocking it for twenty years this month. Who knew songs like Last Kiss and Better Man have been around long before I could even put my fingers on the guitar chords and sing along in a man-voice? What is also completely crazy is that up until now, 1, 200 hours of unseen footage has been sitting around in (probably) Eddie Vedder's basement, gathering dust and not being made into a documentary.

Pearl Jam Twenty is the story of the band's formative years and everything that came after – the success, the chaos, and the music that defined a generation. It's a bit of a mash up of a concert, an insider-hang sesh and a pat on the back to Pearl Jam's twenty years in the biz. Cameron Crowe, the man behind Almost Famous, tells the story of the group that sold sixty million albums and are still continuing to produce music. You can expect bold images with a huge sound in this documentary that will not disappoint Jam fans.

If you are feeling Alive, you'll probably be awakened by this look into one of the world's most successful bands. It's one night only and at selected cinemas across Brisbane tonight.
