Dave A.... however... who would I REAAAAALLY want to see play instead?
Jimmy fuckin' Chamberlin.
He whips every one of 'em.
Jimmy from smashing pumpkins? or Matt from the recording sessions of Ten?
Jimmy Chamberlin from SP.
Matt Chamberlain was an excellent fit with PJ, and would have been a great drummer for them to continue with, but both Dave Abbruzzese and Matt Cameron have pushed PJ's music to an upper level of intensity, and I think Jimmy Chamberlin is the only single drummer who could capture the essence of Abbruzzese and Cameron. Plus, he's a touring pro, and comes from a similar music background.
ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you.

This is amazing news, and a Soundgarden tour with Pearl Jam would be the ultimate!!!!!!! Double duty for everybody's favorite drummer.
Yeah that was my first thought.. would be a tuff show for Matt but damn if it wouldn't be worth it! We'll just pop him full of b vitamins and caffeine.
Everyone else has their "side projects", this could be matts not-so-side-project i guess. but i doubt hed put soundgarden before any pj plans which im sure have been in the works before a soundgarden tour.

PJ and Soundgarden on the same bill with Matt playing both sides? Incredible. Temple of the Dog songs as encores? Ridiculous. Will it ever happen? Probably not.
It's looking more and more as if Matt is taking a break for 5 or so months with PJ and working with his old band, followed by the PJ euro-trip and a fall US whatever. Im ok with this.
Happy New Year everyone!

Dave A would be cool though.
perhaps they can let bygones be bygones and rock out one more time?
Jimmy from smashing pumpkins? or Matt from the recording sessions of Ten?
if the reunion of SG happens it'll be one of two things ..
A.) when pj isn't touring
B.) WITH pj and matt plays both
ed, matt himself, and other members have clarified matt is officially in the band to stay no matter what ... for good. he is never leaving.

I've never heard of an interview where a band member states "Matt will not leave the band for a Soundgarden reunion"
