Bingo.

I'm not calling it a "concept album", but to my mind, the tracks do link together really nicely in a thematic sense

I got an email from Ten Club two days ago saying my order had been shipped. Now every time I hear a large vehicle on the road outside of my house I get a huge boner and jump up to see if it is the UPS truck that I'm longing for. Then, once I realize its just a garbage truck, or school bus or whatever, I get sad boner syndrome.

If it were a concept album i'm not sure why Mike wouldd have had to fight for "Yellow Moon" and Brendan for "Sleeping by Myself"

Every album is a concept album before ed relinquishes space on the cd to the rest of the band for the sake of democracy.

I rearranged the tracks on the album in the following order:

Getaway
MYM
MFS
Inballible
Pendulum
YL
Sirens
SW
LB
LTRP
SBM
FD

What I got as a result is a great 'side A' by Pearl Jam and a 'side B' by a band formerly known as Pearl Jam. It feels good knowing that I can skip 'side B' if I want to stay with PJ.
