The hardcover still says 2080, so y'know, I wait.

It’s been approved! It’s going to press. The only change was the cover.

no wonder the band hasn't been working on a new album or fan club singles, they've been mired in approving this book for the past 6 years

GREAT NEWS!
We just received a note from the Band's attorney that they have approved ALL the images, layouts and text for "Pearl Jam: the Art of Do the Evolution" so we are now ready to ROLL!!
It's been a long haul for me so I fully understand and respect all of your patience in waiting for this long
delayed book to finally hit the market.
I'll be speaking with the publisher today or tomorrow to lock down the expected publishing dates and when I have them confirmed, you will be the first to know.
Now it's time for a stiff, celebratory drink. Cheers!
PS Here's the band's choice for the cover. They picked this one out of the 5 different comps we presented to them. It's not my personal favorite, but I do dig it a lot and it's entirely appropriate for the book and video.
And what I also like is that the cover layout from Robbie Robbins uses images designed by three of the key artists who contributed to the video. The Bleeding Whale was designed and boarded by Jim Mitchell, the "Shotgunned Yield Sign" was designed and boarded by Young Ki Yoon, and Death Girl was designed by Brad Coombs. It's nice to see all of their work on the cover.

I like the whale the best and pilot the least. I’m glad they picked a letterbox cover. Everything from that era was letterboxed.

I think the band definitely picked the best option out of those three covers.
