No - JA

I think there will be an album and tour before the year is out

That would be nice but if I am placing bets, 2028 at the earliest for an album, 2027 maybe a short tour somewhere.

Reality is if there’s no drummer now, they have to hire someone, rehearse, figure out their studio situation, and this said drummer has to learn an extensive catalogue and get on the same page with the band members, which in the 90s I think would have been no sweat but in 2026, they do everything at a snail’s pace.

also in the 90s they had like 25 songs, and now they have like, 35 songs

Yeah and I’ll give some pretty good odds too.

Give me 6 to 1 on $10. Unless you are Tim B or Josh K.

Alright

Krusen sounded fine when he played with the band in 2022. But I still don't see him play any of the non-TEN stuff.

He still plays in more local bands in Seattle. This is a recent one, and yeah, I dont really see he would be e good fit for modern day PJ.

Oh, Mike is getting frustrated now

Wonder which one is holding them up. Gotta be Ed.

I thought they sounded good with stuverud when he sat in, and that was with little practice time

I truly convinced myself there's no way they don't have a drummer by now and they're just playing it coy.

Damn. Mike is absolutely frustrated. I guess I was wrong. So weird!

I was having the same thoughts, but Mike sure sounded genuine in that clip.

RIP Pearl Jam

If the drummer holdup causes other members to leave, that would suck.

but if klinghoffer and watt lose interest, that would make it worth it

Jeff probably wants Richard. Ed probably wants someone like Abe Laboriel Jr. Mike probably doesn't care who it is. Stone maybe suggested someone like Matt Chamberlain but probably can't be bothered to argue about it too much.
