Pirates, Musical Mayhem and Magical Hijinks.
Day 1
New years are for new beginnings and, likewise, new beginnings are born
from new years. Sure, clocks and calendars are arbitrary measures of
time, but cycles are real—and thus, every 12 months we give ourselves a
new start, a new beginning, a new year. And what better way to start
the New Year than by sailing the high seas with a pocketful of high
jinks and a head full of resolutions.
The very idea of Jam Cruise—a weeklong adventure on a
cruise ship with dozens of the world’s best live bands—is clutch enough
in itself. But schedule it for the first week of the year, and you’ve
got yourself a voyage that could actually mean something as well. Now,
what it means exactly and what you choose to do with it is up to each
individual passenger. But the cards are all out on the table

I think about Burning Man all the time: when the hot water goes out
in my building; while I’m riding my bike at night with a headlamp; when
I manage to catch the end of a Manhattan sunset; when I’m at a Brooklyn
loft party where people are dressed in fur and leather even though it’s
not Halloween. I think part of the reason I think about it so much, via
flashbacks and archived mental snapshots, is because my first burn left
such a lasting and memorable impression; sometimes it feels like it
literally and metaphorically seared itself into my skin. I also think,
on a more emotional level, I keep wanting to recapture the feeling of
being some renegade Mad Max heroine, freewheeling and joyriding and
just learning how to survive in the blistering belly of the Nevada
desert. What I have come to realize in hindsight is that Burning Man is
the kind of festival you attend to open a new chapter of your life—or
close an old one.

Tim Donnelly Roughs It On The Road With A Group Of Pearl Jam’s Most Rabid Fans, Encountering Tailgating Boozers, Near-Death Experiences, A Sticky Van, And America’s Greatest Band In The Zone
The Mission  Tim Donnelly - Pearl Jam When a writer is assigned to write about a band whose music moves them the way music is supposed to, objectivity is usually the first thing to go. There are a few artists who turn me from objective journalist to blind fan, but perhaps none more so than Pearl Jam. So when I was asked this spring to interview the band for Relix’s August cover story, I’ll admit it, I was nervous. The band’s music continues to inspire me, and I possess immense respect for Pearl Jam as people and as an organization. After knowing them personally and musically for 15 years, I knew I was in a win-win situation, knowing they would deliver the goods on all accounts. So when I first glanced at the itinerary for the first leg of Pearl Jam’s 2006 world tour, I knew I was, as they used to say: “on the bus.” The run was relatively easy, two shows in Boston, down to Philly for two more, onto DC for one, then back up to NYC for VH1’s Storytellers and back home to Jersey for the final two gigs of the first leg.
