It feels way better or at least more interesting than LB. I would like to know the band´s opinion on LB today.

I’ve met that guy a few times at concerts or record stores in Seattle. He’s the thirstiest wannabe PJ-insider ever.

This bit from the Twitter AMA has me confused...

"If you like Riot Act and Lightning Bolt then you'll enjoy this album. It's late-career Pearl Jam so it's nothing too groundbreaking or different than what they've previously done, except for DotC of course."

Thats the answer my question!

how does "mostly Ed with an acoustic guitar" go on for 6 minutes?

Hypnos · Post by **Hypnos** » Wed March 11, 2020 6:56 pm

Maybe is like Future Days but longer.
