Last week we helped launch a phone hotline for legendary rockers Pearl Jam. The new 'Gigaton' hotline allowed fans to preview Pearl Jam's upcoming new LP ahead of its release on Friday (3/27). Although the promotion is over, you can test out the original hotline by calling: 585-207-3276 (different from the original number: 585-207-3275).
