My question is, how do you decide who handles which guitar part when writing a song? Is it each of you writing your own parts, or do you write parts for one another?

Depends on the song. I usually am confident that Stone will come up with something great for my songs.On Retrograde he came up with the atmospheric melody in the first part of the chorus.Sometimes ED will have a fixed Idea on how a rythm should be played with references like " make it sound like the KInks" Jeff will have specific melodic leads that he will want me to play. I usually like to hear what the guys will come up with on their own.Mike

Hi there. Quick escape has a very rare (and wonderful) effect on the guitar, on the solo, how do they do that? With any pedal, which one? greetings from Argentina

What solo ... first or second...? the first solo is me and he had lots of crap on it... harmonizer and octaver plus tons of distortion.... Thats all Josh Evans on effects choice . It might be guitar direct into the board and distortion with preamps .. i do love that line though.. stone

Mike want to sing :
" I really want to sing for songs I write outside of Pearl Jam. Its been daunting cause Ive been around the best ! Im taking singing lessons from Sue Carr in Seattle shes really great and Im practicing a bunch."
Stone gets up two times a night to pee.
Stone is doing the first solo on Quick Escape.

Love that track. They would really be perfect for each other. Very similar quirky song writing tastes.

Cool to hear Mike saying his guitar effect on Quick Escape is "unique to the record" and can't be replicated live. Makes that song as an art piece even cooler.

Mike - do you avoid loaning your guitars to Stone in case they come back in some weird tuning?
we have a joke that all of our guitars are shared so we are in a constant level of loaning! I love different tunings as they force me to play different and make mistakes that can be cool opportunities

Yeah both Stone and Mike said a lot of that choice was Josh Evans.
