    1st - the thread starter trolls the Red Mosquito forums (as he claims). That place has pranked the message pit countless times with fakes threads, mostly just to see how worked up we all get over this kind of stuff, so there's arleady some doubt.

    2nd - a link someone posted supposedly verifying this as true says that "Multi-platinum record producer, David Devore" visited the class, not Jeff Ament. If Jeff Ament was there, wouldn't the site have some info about it?

    I hate to be a doubter, but I don't think "Evil Beaver's" story is true.

    Multi-platinum record producer, David Devore, visits with students enrolled in MGMT195 Introduction to the Entertainment Business course. DeVore has produced platinum recordings by Elton John, Santana, Foreigner, Fleetwood Mac, Survivor, Alice Cooper, REO Speedwagon, and the Grateful Dead. He has also worked with the likes of Bill Cosby, Ringo Starr, Laura Branigan and many more. Along the way, David has learned a lot about developing production facilities, and the importance for laying them out to be highly effective and flexible. He also has great appreciation for the ups and downs inherent in being a project manager/producer. When speaking with the students enrolled in the course, DeVore stressed the importance of these facets to becoming a highly successful producer.

    do you really think somebody went to that all trouble just to piss people off
    But this thread showed up from a brand new member after another thread had showed up mentioning that this may have happened, but the info was a 3rd person account, from someone "on another board".

    So that leads to 2 possibilities:
    A.Evil Beaver is telling us the truth
    or
    2.This is a joke played by someone who read the other thread




    Now I asked E B how old he was when he saw PJ in 93, cause if he were an average aged college student, that would mean he was in like first grade or so in 93. The other possibility is that he is not 18-22, and he stated he's getting his Masters and so be it.

    I wasn't so much doubting as verifying, cause as we've seen there have been plenty of BS posts on this board about Jeff stealing basketballs and Boom crashing weddings and Ed working as my mailman when they are on hiatus...so some skepticism emerges when these threads show up and there is no verification, especially in this day and age of the camera phone etc.

    So, if its all true, nice story and great exprience Evil Beaver. Say hi to Evil Wally, Evil Ward and Evil June for me.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Understood, but do you really think the school would have a "TBD Special Guest" listed all semester, as the original poster wrote, and then have another "TBD Special Guest" the next day?

    It's not like this other guy visited the class last year or something. It's a day apart. Come on now. And you know how the RM folks are. Always trying to get a rise out of the messsage pit. I think the thread starter is someone that was probably banned from here a while back and started a new name for this prank.

    You gotta see the forrest through the trees DS. :)

    Geez, why are some of you so suspicious? :rolleyes:

    Everytime someone meets the band or does/experiences something cool, they are telling a lie. Seriously.
    I dont think his story is BS. Seems true to me and some of you need to chill and just stop this poop talk...
    So sad. Go watch the dvd you all :p
    And over analyze THAT!

    ...Anyway, I’m currently a student at the University of Montana and we had a guest speaker in my Entertainment Management class yesterday (Oct. 23) and it was none other Jeff Ament. All semester our syllabus had listed “Featuring Special Guest TBA” and we were not told who it was until he walked into our classroom...

    - Evil Beaver

    I think Multi-platinum record producer David Devore would qualify as a "Special Guest." All you're going by is that the thread starter said 10/23 and the article says 10/22. Close enough for me. They wouldn't have this huge record producer one day and Jeff Ament the next. Sorry, I'm calling BS.

    Huh? Why the hostility?

    How much more do you gullible folks need??? The thread starter said a special guest TBD was listed on their syllabus all semester, and I show you that it wasn't Jeff Ament per the school's site, and you still think it's true?

    WOW is all I got to say!
