What’s wrong with April. Are you an anti-Aprite?
I'm guessing it has something to do with the academic calendar.
Actually that's another reason! That's a super busy month work wise and I'll spend god knows how many hours on RM the first month of an album.

It's book publication related. It was supposed to come out in October, but our publisher pushed all their publishing back a few months due to paper shortages. So now the book is supposed to come out in April. It's no longer a comprehensive exploration of the catalog with a new album we don't talk about.

If it comes out much later than April not a big deal - then it's like a 'primer' for the new album. If it comes out early this year we can delay publication and add a chapter (but we haven't negotiated word count, do we need to cut text elsewhere, etc - now that people have pre-purchased the book if costs for printing goes up how might that impact pricing). It won't take long to put the chapter together (could do it in a weekend if needed), but then it impacts book layout, delays printing, etc and pushes everything back further.

We can always push publication back if we have to - the publisher gave us permission, but if an album comes out in Feb then maybe we're just talking about a month or so delay (I'm guessing?). Since we gave them the manuscript September 2022 we'd just like this to come out already and so the more this gets pushed back the more frustrating it is.

We need Pearl Jam to give a fucking date just so we can pin this all down.
