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

I'm still not certain, frankly.

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.Birds in Hell wrote:It wasn't really "awesome" Pearl Jam news, though.Self wrote:It's not their fault, 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.
"Excited as hell"? This Firecloud character doth protest too much.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.
