Drowned Out

What's Eddie REALLY like?

and...

What's on the line in the cd-sales wager between the two of you?


Looking forward to hearing this

Jeff I know you have a huge passion for skateboarding, as do I. Did your love for skateboarding have any influence on this project?

1. Elaborate on the collaborators, Richard Stuverud of Three Fish and Dug Pinnick of King's X.

2. Is "Thomasina", the feminine Thomas, correct context?

3. Is orange your favorite color?

4. Do you consider yourself a travelling salesman?

5. Is it quite possible that it is "the only sky in the cloud", and that you have it all backwards?

Will you be doing any small shows in Florida, possibly HOB? Please don't make us down south suffer. I didn't steal any of your action figure things.

Any chance some of the questions could be answered by video instead of just text? We'd love to see that!

so harmless...just a SUPER FAN

Did living in Montana help at all with the writing and/or title selections?

hey jeff, from my perspective it's always seemed that you've been one to always enjoy just being lost in the music and just letting it take you somewhere else... so my question is where do you hope that this album, or where this music will take us when we put on our headphones and close our eyes? is there someplace that it takes you, is there a vision you have for it?...
thanks for everything...
peace, love and pearl jam

We've heard about Stone's Hank Williams tribute album for awhile now, but there's still no official release on that record yet (I'm not aware of it yet anyway).

Could we see a short Jeff/Stone tour in late fall/winter? Would be nice

Fighting Hellfish

What kind if artwork can we expect? Will there be any posters, t-shirts, or any other type of memoribilia associated with the artwork?

"is true that the record contains songs that you wrote in the last 10 years?, wich are the feeling with this new songs? Wath have inspired you to write this record?"

BrainofBGA

Gday Jeff!

The material that made the final record - over how many years have you been writing it? do they tracks follow a certain theme?

bigbadbill

I heard you've been working on this album for quite awhile. Just like it's been done with Pearl Jam, has any of the material that you might have written in the beginning of this project (12 years ago) been edited or rewritten, or do you keep songs the way they were originally done?

I hope you perform at some Southern California (Los Angeles/Orange/San Diego venues).

Sprunkn7

Hi Jeff,

Wow, 12 years is a long time. Why did it take so long and can you give us an idea what had transpired along the way to get to the final release?

Thanks,
Sue

Hey Jeff, can't wait to hear the album!

Is the new album more representative who you are than the Three Fish project was? Does this mean there'll be no more Fish?

ladygooddiva

i have one more:
how was it, to work with richard struverud again
..was it diffrent than the work for three fish?

Drum Machine89

Hi Jeff

How long had you been wanting to do the solo project?

thanks, Mike.

ArachNe

Hi Jeff;

20 years from now, do you see yourself as a recognized independent musician/songwriter who happens to be part of PJ or do you see as a recognized musician/songwriter from PJ who actually had a solo career? From your perspective and expectations, what would be the best scenario?

TiaMija

As someone who has traveled the world and seen most of our country, you have an informed perspective on America. Do any of the songs on the album reflect that perspective and, considering the timing of the release, could they inspire us to help "take the colors back"?

All the best,
Ronda

Brisk.

Whats the tone of your voice because i don't think you have said 1 word at a pearl jam concert?

FiveB247x

If you tour, will you play Oklahoma City even though they stole your Supersonics?

Blredyellow

Jeff,

What were some of your biggest influences -- music, books, film, etc. -- throughout the recording of your LP?

And thanks for putting this record out. I can't wait to her it!

Jeff

If one of us fans stopped you in the street and asked you about your new solo album, instead of new PJ work, would that suprise you ????

JacqueDeftonesED

I have this feeling that you´re a huge spiritual person.

Did your wait more tha 10 years to create a solo proyect, cause you wanted that this album be a reflexion or an approach of all the places in the one your soul, heart and mind has been during all this years??

Why Tone?

Stereotype

Which Pearl Jam member (apart from you) will in your opinion like your CD most and which one least & why?

or

If you could choose one song in music history, one that you wish to be yours - in terms of you writing it, which one would it be and why?

or

Lets say there is a recipe for making a CD. What would recipe >TONE< say?

Take care,
Barbara, Slovenia

Hello Jeff!

I don't understand why all pearl jam band members are doing their own solo material instead of just concentrate of making music / releasing albums more often for pearl jam. what i mean: you released 6 records in the span of 9 years (1991-2000), and from 2002-2008 you released 2 records. i look forward to hearing your feedback. thanks! keep on making good tunes!
