When a band is but a fraction of Pearl Jam, but they aren't zero Pearl Jam.

The last Seattle one goes on sale today. Goes nicely with the other Ames Bros posters.

Thoughts? Do you still give it a spin? How has it aged? Should they reform and do a followup album/tour/moneygrab?

Are we fucking old now, or what?
it worked out well, sarge

Imagine what could be done if their focus was solely on Pearl Jam again.

I dont think it this is the reason they are not making more music with PJ. They always had side proyects and stuff around.

If nothing else, maybe the band will once again learn what its like to have and create space in their songs. That is when mike, matt, jeff, and stone are at their best.

Does anyone think Cornell's comments carry any more weight than Mike McCready talking about his solo album?

No.

It's the same as one of us telling a friend, "yeah man, let's go grab some beers next week" and then you never do

the new TOTD album will come out before the new PJ album when the PJ 4 decide they would rather prioritize writing new TOTD in two years than writing new PJ

or maybe Ed's latest hairplug treatment goes awry and he loses his voice for several months and the PJ 4 have no better option really than to call up matt cameron chris cornell to replace jack irons ed vedder
