Q&A
MIKE McCREADY
"The Pearl Jam guitarist on smashed Stratocasters, screaming solos, and why his band need their "asses kicked".
Interview: Henry Yates

Digital painting by John Gallego. https://jbgallego.com

Narrated and commented on by PJ Pat. 

I've been a big fan of Pearl Jam and, by default, Mike McCready since day 1. I'd say he's the one guitarist that has influenced my playing the most. After all his trials and tribulations, it's so good to see him come out on top and kick ass. To this day, I still pinch myself that I actually met him and hung out for just a moment. Story in the video which I hope you enjoy.
