I just Zoomed with Jeff Ament

Post by knee tunes »

We zoomed for a good ten minutes. I called him Jeff Cement and he laughed.

That was so awesome. I wasn't even that nervous .

Maybe they'll put me on their Instagram like they did with Stephanie.

Yes. And glasses. His name said "Jeff Diction" I said "are you Jeff Diction because I thought you were Jeff Cement"

I didn't tell him about RM. That sucks.

My kid talked to him too. We told him about my kid's rock band and he's going to check them out. I hope he leaves a comment on their YouTube :haha:

He wanted to know if my son's band practiced in the drummers garage and we said no, the bassist's living room while the bassist's dad sits outside and reads the newspaper.

Jeff said he stopped sending records to his friends when covid started because he wasn't sure how the virus spread and I said , yeah I saw you when you got your gigaton record. He didn't laugh at that tho.

He thought I was in the basement because you could see the banister going upstairs and I said "what, my living room looks like a basement? ".

I opened up my vote by mail thing in front of him and he was very interested in that.

It was not like I was talking to Jeff Ament. There's more. I will have to think of it all. I recorded some it with my phone. I said the word "like" like 20 times in 1:36

Yay! I'm so glad it finally worked out. I was sure they were just stringing you along and would let you down in the end. But they delivered!

Did you request Jeff?

It definitely feels like he'd be the most interesting member of pj to talk to.

That rules. Jeff or Stone would be a best case scenario, IMO. Glad you got a lot out of it.

I said. "what's your name Jeff Diction?" he laughed and said that was his name in 1981. I said "before you had it changed to Jeff Cement. " he said"niiiice". Then I said" just kidding, I just said I would say that, so..."..

I just looked up Jeff Diction and apparently Jeff had a band way back when called Deranged Diction. Huh! How about that ?
