well on the plus side, pages 26-27 of this thread were a classic. Good job, Pearl Jams.

Like I posted a few days ago, every time the 10 Club tries to do some big build up thing, it's a let down. Always. This is actually MORE exciting than I was expecting. I'm not saying it's unfair to expect more, but I also believe in managing expectations. If your expectations weren't met, that sucks. But that doesn't make the band worse. It doesn't make anyone evil.

10 Club was building excitement in a big way for a band who has been low key for far too long. This is the largest tour they've announced since... what like 2006 or something? They're excited. I'm excited. Those of us that are, have just as much right to be as those who are disappointed.
OK, when it comes to all the talk about the vitriol, or people acting like the sky is falling, etc. etc...let's all just assume that people aren't actually shitting themselves in fury that PJ released tour dates instead of album news. People are either laughing at the fact that they made a dumb move or are being dramatic because that's what you do on the Internet.

Okay, then let's just assume others are just calling them out on it.

We can still speculate on when each band member will die.

I hope to be minding my manners with Mind your manners in the great outdoors this weekend. A nice digital copy would suffice heading into the weekend :thumbsup:

Can we all at least give 10C credit for not building a clock that crashed its own site when it hit 0? Because, if we're honest, I think we all thought that was what would happen.

Word.

Perhaps a non-album track to go along with that digital single. :heartbeat:
