My chips on Ed.

Simultaneously the most morbid and the most thought-provoking thread I've seen in a long time. My bets:

1. Boom Gaspar - 2021, snakebite, age 68
2. Eddie Vedder - 2023, cancer, age 59
3. Mike McCready - 2031, blood disease, age 65
4. Jeff Ament - 2032, car accident, age 69
5. Matt Cameron - 2034, stroke, age 72
6. Stone Gossard - 2050, "old age" (actually, a gerbil accident), age 84

I am going to save that in a text file on my computer.

in 2030 they will do an Eddie Vedder tribute show, and Abruzzese and Irons will eventually re-join the group for one last show, a few new stars and friends will join the stage with Gossard, McCready, Cameron and Ament to sing songs for the fallen friend.
The Set List would be:
1- Release w/ Chris Cornell
2- Oceans w/ Dave Ghrol
3- Hard to Imagine w/ Caleb Followill
4- Man Of The Hour w/ Olivia Vedder
5- The Fixer w/ Stone Gossard on main vocals
6- Who You Are w/ Jack Irons and Stone Singing
7- Just breathe w/ Corin Taylor and Olivia Vedder
8- HUnger Strike w/ Dave Ghrol and Chris Cornell
9- Even Flow w/ Abruzzese on drums and Matt singing
10- I am mine w/ Ben Harper
11- Alive w/ William Duval and Jerry Cantrell
12- Yellow Ledbetter w/ Everybody
13- Rocking In The Free World w/ Everybody.

Mike would be found of his blood sickness 2 months after the show.

Mike seems the obvious choice, but then somehow Keith Richards is still alive. Ed would be #2, lung cancer and/or cirrhosis and/or psycho stalker fan ala what nearly happened to George Harrison. Stone is like the Macca of the group, he will live forever, as will MC, aka Ringo. So I guess here's my order:

1. McCready, followed closely behind by
2. Ved
--significant time passes--
3. Ament
4. Stone (declines rapidly after the death of his lifelong musical partner)
5. Cameron

If you count Boom, he's by far the oldest so he'll be first.

Remember, Matt is the oldest after Boom. But he does also seem to be the fittest.

Yeah, it'll be Ed or Mike.

Kenny will outlive us all

Jack Irons first. Self-inflicted gunshot. Five to ten years from now.

Second will be Mike. Heart issues. Shortly before his 60th birthday.

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan...

...followed later by Ed's Kim Jong phase.

OK...
All of them the same day, while being in Hawaii for Boom Gaspar's funeral.
Eddie Vedder: shark attack while surfing
Jeff Ament : drowning while trying to save Ed
Mike McCready: slip and fall form hill across the beach, watching Ed and Jeff
Matt Cameron: cell phone explosion (hearing the news when touring with Soundgarden)
Stone Gossard: heart attack from laughing

God forbid. ....

I wouldn't even want to think of such a horrible thing (even though it is a part of nature)

I wish the boys each a healthy and a long life

Shoaf

All of them will die (along with about a quarter of RM) the morning of May 12, 2018 when the cruise ship hosting the 3rd Annual Bud Light Pearl Jam Booze Cruise capsizes off the coast of Fiji. Ed and Stone die in an embrace and both admit to homoerotic fantasies about each other. Jeff admits his fantasies about his skateboard. Matt's death is unknown, but it's assumed he regrets not choosing the 2nd Annual Miller Lite Soundgarden Booze Cruise. The details about Mike's death are also unknown and no one cares to speculate because nobody really gives a shit about Mike.
Boom is the only survivor of the disaster and reforms Pearl Jam 5 years later. Each show features a 45-minute pump organ solo and PJ becomes more popular than ever.

No. I die in an autoerotic asphyxiation accident 2 weeks prior.

Jesus, this band has a lot of accidents.

Eddie died in 1998... well.. his voice did anyways.

I'm pretty sure that what the fuck will be the first to go
