    Personally... this is more exciting news to me than the Pearl Jam tour. I'm hoping that the Vultures don't play Los Angeles on the current Pearl Jam dates... I'd hate to skip out on Pearl Jam.. and this the the one of the only things that would cause me to do that. The only other would be a Pink Floyd (semi-) Re-Union.

    Alain Johannes??? Are you kidding? I loved Eleven. That is one helluva lineup!

    I'm with you on being more excited about this than Pearl Jam. This is huge and I can't wait for the album or some tour news!

    Add me to the 'fucking psyched about this' list!!

    Honestly, if I'd had the cash, I would've come to the US just for this one show. Wish the YouTube clips were better quality...

    It was so loud in there that the only way anyone will have a decent recording is if they brought external mics, etc. I would be shocked if you could get a decent cellphone clip from anywhere in there that the 'non-VIPs' were allowed. :)

    Yeah, judging by the clips on YouTube, the gig must have been ridiculously loud!

    it was very loud! you won't hear any good audio unless it was coming from the balcony, but like someone else said that was for VIP's so i doubt you'll get anything. I'm amazed at how underwraps they've kept this thing...but trust me the wait will be worth it.

    Have owned this album since its release and only recently have been giving it repeated listens.

    On the first few plays i really didn't get it. Maybe I thought it was 'just another' alternative rock record from Homme and co.

    The penny has just dropped. This is a cracker of a record that has finally sunk in. I love that about a record though. The albums I love on first listen I get tired of quickly.

    not really hiatus. just that when they released that free EP, Dave wrote a letter to his fans and he said "we'll see you sometime in the future" or something to that effect. the same thing he says after every album cycle.

    hopefully all their schedules can match up. Love TCV. I was hopefuly as they posted on facebook an update to their store with more swag. but it's just a restock more than anything.
