Dave A gets canned for doing an interview with a drum magazine and Mike gets to put out a book.

In mike's defense, he's been in the band for a long time before doing so

Why is anyone disappointed that Mike-- from what I can tell, the dimmest and least-articulate guy in the band-- isn't actually writing a book?

Let him release his potato photo book. I bet there's some good stuff in there.

"I'm not interested under these circumstances" is not the same as "disappointed"

If this was a dumb band, it would be so much easier to forgive the last 10 years.

mccreedy just sucks.

a lot.

worst, he doesn't know it

I think the only reason he's still in the band is that the other are prone to avoiding controversy/ and now it's just too late.
He doesn't fit in and basically can't keep up.
Yeah, he's fast. oh boy :lol: :finger: . maybe he should just play baseball. right field or catcher please

compared to Ed, Stone and Matt and probably bass and boom, he's in another league.

and that would be minor. and not the chord either. cuz that would be good.

but he's not.

You mean he might be phoning it in and delivering sleepy solos when handed gems like (absolutely nothing to insert here)?! Shame on him.

Man, you guys are literally judging a book by its cover. :shake:
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I'm much more excited for a photo book from Mike than an autobiography, which I can't imagine would reveal anything earth-shattering.

"Ever since the legendary band Pearl Jam was first created, its lead guitarist, Mike McCready, could always be counted on to have his trusty Polaroid camera at his side..."

Man, I feel like we were thiiiiiiiis close to an "ashes of Mother Love Bone" reference in this sentence.
