Maybe "Lightning Bolt" is PJ really fucking with their fans? Like Live's "V" which to this day I believe had to be a joke.
You think they know how to do this with humour at this point? My take is that they keep doing it by accident.

I know. It's pretty funny. What if it's that experimental sideways jam we keep wanting them to make? What if it's a weird little shitty non-song thing like red dot?

So we're not calling bullshit on that tracklist then?

I'm just intrigued that a few legit members have dropped it in here, and lecherous little twunt wasn't one of them.

Some troll called lecherous little stump has been dropping fake tracklists in here since... I dunno, but we must've seen at least 10 posted by him at this point.

The crazy thing is, if this tracklist is real, then this album's success might ride entirely on the quality of a track called "Where's the Sponge?".

Could WtS be inspired by dinner time at the Vedders house? At least there are 8 other tracks we haven't heard yet.

What if it's just a recording of one of the kids saying "Where's the sponge?" in between two songs, kinda like a more benign Foxymop?

I really want to know more about bath time in the Vedder household. Might start a thread over in the Pit....
