[Birds in Hell]

I don't think the fact that he's worked in the industry rules out that it was also spontaneous and happened totally by chance.

Someone unearthed a post he made in the 10C Facebook group last year wearing that same shirt, talking about how much he loves Matt Cameron.

If he was a deliberate plant, they were really playing the long game.

Well if he loves Matt he’s ok in my book

Quick Escape was awesome...GTF too.

Ed sounds super cool.

Damn this band.

Holy shit Richard played the shit out of Lukin

Josh’s limitations as a drummer are more apparent on listening to this show, but man, Richard is just killing it.

Great version of Jeremy.

I'm finally listening to this and man....the most I've liked RITFW in....forever? I don't know. I've always had Matt cameron as my least favorite PJ member and it's so refreshing to hear a different sound?

[wease]

Where are you guys listening to these boots?

[E.H. Ruddock]

They play them on the Sirius channel all the time

[WtOB?]

Stone enjoying this gig a suspicious amount.



(Even fist bumps with Richard at the end, ha.)

no chlamydic dick on that one

[wease]

These are some of the best sounding boots they’ve ever put out

[Birds in Hell]

Not for me.

They’re better than 2008-2010, but Brett Eliason is very missed.

Went to the 5/12 show.

They were great as always.

Highlights were "Black" and "Lukin". They had never done those for me live before.

Cameron was sick with Covid, so they had Josh Klinghoffer and Richard Stuverud on drums, depending on the track. For "Yellow Ledbetter", they had a fan from the audience drum. He had the names of all of the past Pearl Jam drummers on a shirt, too.
