well

I think YOUR MUM is a worker-for-hire that does Ed's bidding and plays a professional and technically sound style but introduces no personal or artistic influence into the band.

LeBron James is the next Drumoise of Pearl Jam?

id pick Liam as the next drummer

My pick is Kris Myers formerly of Umphreys McGee. He left UM just a couple of weeks before Matt left. Guy is fucking legit and can play anything.

Some of these drummer suggestions make me wonder if some of you have actually ever listened to music before. Steve Gorman? Love the guy so much and saw TBC too many times to count, but as a fit for Pearl Jam? It’s just not his kind of swing at all.

The bulk of PJ’s material at this point was played on by Matt. You’re going to need someone with his stamina and chops every night on stage. It will likely not be a household name but someone younger, like Foo Fighters and now Rush have done.

The thing is, we want a change. A big one.

Do "we"?

It's doubtful these guys have some big creative push ahead of them.

I'd say they're going to want someone who has the physical endurance to be on the road whenever needed, can play all of the catalogue comfortably, and isn't a dickhead to be around.

Going by past behaviour, they're also unlikely to pick someone without a previous connection with the band.

I'd be ecstatic with Matt Chamberlain and totally fine with Rich Stuverud.

I wouldn't necessarily use Matt and "chops" together in a sentence

Chad Smith would be nice

Yeah agreed, people are bozos if they think they'll pick someone outside of their personal orb

How about consecutive sentences that express the same sentiment, i.e “I miss Matt. He had drumming chops.” Or in non-drum related scenarios, like if we hear a good story about him eating cut pork loin, doing karate, or working as a lumberjack?

I will think about this, you raise a good point

I think Pearl Jam should see about getting the drummer from Soundgarden...that guy could really play.

Just a cardboard cutout of Matt C and pump studio tracks into the live mix

Did we talk about Zac Starkey yet?

if zak's busy.. what's ringo up to?

I agree that everyone suggesting other 60 year olds are probably missing the mark
