Perhaps I should have created a separate thread I wouldn't want them to have a single sax man playing solos, but I would love to hear the band with a horn section backing them.
I don't mean that they should have one at each show, or in an album (though I wouldn't oppose the album option) but at least one show with a horn section would be nice. They could ask Pete (Townshend) help with the arrangements I can hear in my head how the arrangements would go e.g. for Faithful and Do The Evolution.
I'm sure you didn't dislike how the band sounded at VH1 Rock Honors?

Oh no!! No saxophone. No. Maybe for one song though, if Eddie started moving to the music, and also threw his shirt away. Why not in Stockholm on the 7th of July, for example? But after that one song, the saxophone must be GONE.

It wouldn't need to be on every song, but a nice sax on a few songs a show would be nice and add
something cool and different.
This is coming from a songwriter that's been in rock bands my whole life and swore i'd never even have a
keyboard player. Now that I'm doing the solo thing, but looking to put a band together to work the solo stuff, a good piano/keys player is on the top of my list to find. Along with someone that can play sax on a few things.
It's called growth people. We can't stay 22 forever. Trust me, I've tried.
Peace, Love.

no one's saying the sax is only for old people. it has its place. it just wouldn't fit with pearl jam's music. maybe ed's solo stuff, but not PJ.

1. Adding a PJ saxophonist
2. What song would you like to see PJ cover?

if this is a truly serious suggestion, what songs do you think would benefit from sax?
