He's either god or a lost and wandering 3 legged puppy whom 20 people here are passionate for.

"Everyone deserves a week off.
We figured we’d give you this week off Music Jury Duty so you can rest up for the run into Christmas (or Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or Jedi week or whatever it is you celebrate). So, no Jury this week.

BUT next week on air we’re going to give you the chance to relax… IN LOS ANGELES watching PEARL JAM play their new album LIGHTNING BOLT and it’s only for Music Jurors.

Here’s how you get your arse Stateside with the boys.

1. Be a Music Juror (you’ve already done that, so… tick!)
2. Listen to Triple M from 9am Monday (Oct 7th)
3. Call 1 333 53 whenever we tell you to call. The first Music Juror through will go on the standby list.

PLUS, LIGHTNING BOLT is our album of the week next week – if you want to try it before you buy it, keep it here on the M’s to hear it.

Doesn’t get Eddie Vedder than that.

Oh, and if you miss someone, it *might* be because it was night in their time zone and they were asleep?... :roll:

Not just RM, or Pearl Jam, or the internet. But life itself.
That was a special moment. I don't know who you were channeling, buy it was like 50 Shades of Harmless.

Today or tomorrow would be good leak days. Friday is bad, and sat/sun is horrible.

When Backspacer came out, it took 3 weeks for it to arrive in South Africa, so I had to avoid this place because I wanted the full album to listen to.

This year I'm going digital, so it won't be long to wait for the liner notes (which are the most important difference between a leak and the official release for me). It'll be easy to avoid this leak.

If it ever happens. :shock:

I think today is a fantastic leak day and then any day after that is slightly less fantastic than the previous.

Backspacer leaked on a Friday evening UK time, that was a nice weekend treat.

I read somewhere that everyone who post on RM is a douche bag that actually hates Pearl Jam now, and has hated them since shortly after the Riot Act tour, but still posts here because the the internet would be lonely without it.

I don't even know who Pearl Jam are. I just post here because I have nowhere else to go, especially after I got kicked out of the 'No Crackpots' club. I'm so lonely, that my only outlet is to masturbate and post gifs constantly.
