We are now in the final week, leading up to release date (UK wise, anyway), and still no leak. In the age of high speed Internet, I have never known an album by such a well known band or artist to take so long. :cry:

How does that equate to an "RIP PJ"?

It's a slogan for people who are pretty much completely disillusioned with everything about Pearl Jam, yet still post incessantly on Pearl Jam message boards.

I get that. I've just not yet figured out what criteria needs to be met to make "RIP PJ" funny.

Yeah I'd say this is a pretty accurate description of me.

The insinuation was "Nobody cares enough to leak it."

See I get that. Except I'm not disillusioned with anything, far from it. I'm excited that my favourite band are about release their first album in over 4 years and I'm pretty fucking impatient.

I was just saying it's rare for an album to not be public by now, nothing "RIP PJ" about that.

You may have insinuated that in your mind but I wasn't suggesting that. I was just stating it's rare for an album to have not leaked by now. You can't read between the lines when there's only one of them. ;)

Haha. Sorry, I'm just grouchy because I want to hear this album and then crack on with the rest of my life. :D
