It's a full time job to pretend you hate Pearl Jam.

This station actually plays some decent stuff. Wish we still had a station like that here.

Mccready says he won argument that got Yellow Moon onto record. Otherwise would've been only 11 songs.

On now. He says interview will be available online. 25 minutes, but he's only playing parts of it right now.

Ed didn't have many songs in 1st session, but brought in a bunch to 2nd session.

Contradicts BoB - says 30 songs total. 14-15 in both sessions.

Does not sound excited about FD, but likes Ed's harmonies on it.

Pays lip service to BoB. He helps them finish stuff off [their careers? :o ].

Toughest song to record and finish - Sirens. Precious to Mike and wrote a solo specifically for it.

That's it for now.

Wasn't 30 songs - he said 30 ideas/riffs/outlines for songs.

Also Yellow Moon is a Jeff song.

Ed brought in Lightning Bolt during second recording session.

Mike did seem semi meh on Future Days.

Says BOB is a good guide who has an overview of what the entire album should sound like.

I'm very positive on Yellow Moon being a Jeff song that had to be argued on the record. Thats a really good sign.

Mike likes new direction of Infallible and Sirens. Getaway, Mind Your Manners, Swallowed Whole came from second recording session. Happy the album is finally done.
