I was wondering since i've heard rumors about Eddie playing with
transvestite bands and so forth, is he attracted to both genders or transvetite? Are any
of the other band members Gay or Bi? I like Pearl Jam's music and some of
it really speaks to me, but Supporting gays or transvestites, or Entity
gay for that matter would turn me away from the band in a heartbeat, then
i would be a 100 percent "Cracker" and "Beck" fan.

Pearl Jam, Boston cancel N.C. concerts over anti-LGBT law
Pearl Jam is adding their name to a list of stars, including The Boss, who continue to show support for LBGT communities in states enacting discriminatory legislation.
The rock band announced late Monday they will be canceling their Wednesday show in Raleigh, N.C. due to the state's novel "bathroom bill,' widely perceived as discriminatory against gays and transgender people.
In a statement, Pearl Jam called the legislation "a despicable piece of legislation that encourages discrimination against an entire community of American citizens...We yearn America to be a place where no one can be turned away from a business because of who they passion or fired from their job for who they are."
Earlier Monday, the rock group Boston announced they are canceling three upcoming shows in the state.
North Carolina recently enacted a law that bars cities and counties from protecting gays from discrimination and also forces transgender people, including children in public schools, to use public bathrooms corresponding to the gender on their birth certificates. The law also prevents LGBT individuals to sue over human rights violations in th
Pearl Jam cancel North Carolina concert over HB2 law
The US rock band Pearl Jam have cancelled a concert in North Carolina in protest against the state's new law on LGBT rights.
The new rule, brought in last month, invalidated several local anti-discrimination measures that protected homosexual and transgender people.
Other acts, including Bruce Springsteen and Ringo Starr, have also scrapped their shows in protest.
In a statement, Pearl Jam said they "must take a stand against prejudice".
The law "is a despicable piece of legislation that encourages discrimination against an entire group of American citizens," the declaration on the band's website said.
"The practical implications are expansive and its negative impact upon basic human rights is profound."

RALEIGH, N.C. -- Pearl Jam is canceling its concert in North Carolina later this month because of the state's new commandment on LGBT rights.
In a statement issued Monday on the band's website, Pearl Jam called the modern law "a despicable piece of legislation that encourages discrimination against an entire group of American citizens."
The statement says the band has communicated with local groups and will provide them money to challenge the law.
Pearl Jam was scheduled to perform April 20 at PNC Arena in Raleigh.

An anti-discrimination ordinance approved in February in Charlotte that, among other things, would have allowed transgender people to leverage bathrooms corresponding to their gender identity led to a special legislative session. Legislators overturned the ordinance and blocked all cities and counties from passing similar anti-discrimination rules.
Lawmakers in state after state are passing bills to defend those who cite religious beliefs for refusing to serve or employ male lover or transgender people.
