Not new, not from a band. I always secretly wished that PJ would release Crossroads.

Yeah I agree. I really liked the way they ended the "last" season with Eddie.

Your secret is out now!

I've never had the slightest interest in Eddie's pre-Pearl Jam material, that isn't about to change now.

The vast majority of us were, friend.

I'm still not certain, frankly.
'love boat captain' cast such a net for tragic song titles that i'll believe anything.
oh shit that DID happen
and it really did sound as stupid in the song as I thought it would.

I was at least 75% sure that I was going to sign back in this afternoon and find a real announcement. No luck apparently.

Those Antiquiet guys sure don't take criticism well.

Doesn't take much to get the Jamily worked up, does it?

I saw some pretty heated exchanges on The Pit.

It's not their fault, though. Is Johnny FireCloud really gonna break new album/music news?

It wasn't really "awesome" Pearl Jam news, though.

I'm sure they were aware that Tweet would whip some of the band's fans into a frenzy. It was hardly an accident.

Definitely not an accident. I can't image the traffic it generated. I'm just thinking the fault is ours for thinking he had "awesome" Pearl Jam news.

We didn't post it yesterday because we were doing our research as we built the piece, cross-referencing old recordings and things we'd seen on Gremmie and various other places. There are at least two recordings we've never seen online before, and were entirely new to us.

The tweet yesterday read: "Hey @PearlJam fans… we've got something awesome to share with you tomorrow morning."

That was me, excited to share this new find. Hell, it's a free download. We're not hoarding anything. The band is clearly between albums. I said nothing of a new album, single, tour announcement or otherwise. Nor did I hint about it. Naturally though, shitty attitudes are quite prevalent when people are faced with being denied their ridiculously irrational expectations. After all, it was just this month that Vedder said the band is "taking their time" on the new album, and they're only halfway done, if that:

One tweet brings the fire of a thousand bitter suns because it's not a Yankee stadium show announcement or new single? Fuck that. I've been a Pearl Jam fan four times as long as Antiquiet has existed. Had I woken up to this on another site I'd be excited as hell. Please, by all means, unfollow away. I want nothing to do with that level of cynicism.
"Excited as hell"? This Firecloud character doth protest too much.

I'm not so sure they anticipated just how far *those* PJ fans can go when it comes to teasing news, and the imminent fall out when they are disappointed
