So fuck you, mate.
Damn, Pete.

6. I would like to see the guys tap more into the surf rock they explored on the 1996 hit Gremmie Outta Control. Bring Jimmy Shoaf back on drums, his style seems more suited for this approach.

All I really care about is getting new music. It's by far the most exciting time to be a Pearl Jam fan and longstanding esteemed member of the Jamily.
I still think they have something cool left in the tank IF IF IF they think outside the box and hire a producer that will challenge them.
Another by-numbers BOB mishmosh is creative death.

7. Eddie brings in David Lynch as producer/ TM guru and Stone and Jeff quit. Everybody wins.

Jeff and Stone form a new band called Grandmother Love Bone and book a fairly average casino tour

I'd like to see Pearl Jam cover St. Vincent. There next album should contain no new tracks, only 13 St. Vincent covers.

I was super, super excited when BOB came back and I don't know if I ever came out here and admitted that I was dead wrong, so I am doing it now. As chud stated, we had good reason to be excited.
Back to the subject, with ten years left, maybe give complete control back over to Stone and Jeff. Let those guys write the songs. Call in Ed at the last minute. At this point, we just need his voice and then send him back to the islands with Boom.

Guys, i kind of think ed has wrote the best songs over the last two albums :\ Thats not saying much, but stone hasn't really tossed the band anything super great (for reasons unknown)
Ed and Jeff have been writing the best songs.
Stone - Up your game, bruh
MIke - Stick to what you know
Ed - Just go back to pretending you are cooler than you are and make somewhat better songs
Jeff - You be you, because you are fantastic
Matt - Write. Never stop writing
Boom - Lol
