I actually don't think I've ever listened to any Eddie solo record in its entirety.
God no. Unless it meant less Ed songs on the next PJ album.durdencommatyler wrote:I feel like I've said this for the past decade but I think I'd rather have a proper Ed solo record right now than a proper Pearl Jam record.

Unless Ed pulled his finger out and called Benmont Tench and Mike Campbell and organised a session. Now that could be pretty tasty.durdencommatyler wrote:I feel like our differences are our friendship's greatest strength.LetMeSleep wrote:God no.

I have Sonos speakers throughout my house and love their ease of use, wireless functionality and 3rd party app integration. I really don't even know what "audiophile" quality sounds like, but these speakers sound pretty great to me (somewhat dependent on source tunes of course). If that's because they are eq'd to fit my middle-aged idiot's optimal hearing range I'd have thought that was a good thing, no?McParadigm wrote:Sonos is basically Beats for middle age idiots...low quality sound, ugly boosts in frequencies that support presence, and rounded EQing in ranges that fit your age range's hearing. The brand's own salespeople caution against describing it as high fidelity.

Don't get me wrong, if they announce a new record, I'll be over the moon about it. I'll absolutely buy at least two copies and I'll hope against hope that it's their best album to date.cutuphalfdead wrote:Sametheplatypus wrote:I am very pessimistic about there ever being new Pearl Jam / Ed Vedder music that I care about again
Same. But it won't be. And then I will be sad.durdencommatyler wrote:Don't get me wrong, if they announce a new record, I'll be over the moon about it.

Yeah, I'm pretty comfortable with the idea that their best work is behind them. I just want good work at this point.Monkey_Driven wrote:Same. But it won't be.

Yup. I want them to explore some new sounds. Incorporate some of the things they've done in their side projects (RNDM, Cavedweller, etc.). Write music together again. Stop trying to write songs thinking about how you are going to play them live.durdencommatyler wrote:Yeah, I'm pretty comfortable with the idea that their best work is behind them.
