Debate over a song title, sheesh. Some people have way more spare time then is good for them
youve got that right, but on a PJ forum that has been waiting 4 years for a new album, we talk about all kinds of bull shit :lol:

You could craft some pretty dark lyrics around 'Where's the Sponge,' if you were so inclined. Here's two themes, just for fun:

1. hospital room, post-op. Dr. says to nurse - "oh fuck, where's the sponge?!"

2. So much bloodshed/shit/corruption in the world, we need a huge MF'n sponge to sop it all up. [It's...My...BLOOOOOOD!]

Option 1. is much sexier, granted, but I would probably make love to both of these songs.

I got it. Where's The Sponge is in fact the opener of another ATG multi song saga like Mamasan only better. Parts two and three will be called Why Sheep and Why U No Bitchin.

"Where's the Sponge?" will be PJ's equivalent of Spin Doctors' "What time is it?"

Someone had a much better and darker idea: the sponge in subject is actually the one that goes on top of head of a convict in an electric chair (think The Green Mile)

Besides, the patient-nurse-doctor emergency room idea was already done by Tool (Rosetta Stoned)

I said this but I wasn't the first one. This would be awesome.

I've been seeing two or three of these apparent Lightning Bolt MP3 links as Google hits for weeks now. I just presumed that people had noticed them and they were obvious fakes because they were so easy to find (just type 'Pearl Jam Lightning Bolt leak').

mind your manners sounds like a song that was written by a band that lost a battle of the bands bar tournament in round one in 1995

Probably the best compliment you could possibly give it in 2013.

It's not a Lightning Bolt leak guys. It's a Lightning Bolt strike.

Oh God. I bet that's what they're calling it over on the Pit.

"DID LIGHTNING BOLT STRIKE YET GUYS?"
