    I think Dave is turning into Springsteen: he's already got the next album planned out even before they've finished this newest one. The man doesn't stop.

    I always wondered how Dave Grohl thinks about Pearl Jam since Pearl Jam and Nirvana were like rivals.

    He loves them. I wouldn't say they were rivals; just the media trying to get a story.

    I hope the album is released in its entirey before the airing of the HBO series. I think there is a chance that thye will air a couple episodes before the album release, but I want to hear it all through several times before I learn the backgrounds.

    he said something along the lines of 8 songs 50 minutes. that got me excited
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    Is the first song really going to be 36 minutes long?

    Yeah... There goes that hope.

    And airing on a Friday night? I'm busy Friday nights, so it looks like I will be catching them On-demand on Saturday.

    :)) I am curious if they will be doing any 'secret' shows to coincide with the series. Maybe taking a drive down to DC if the coordinate lands on a music venue lol

    Upcoming collaboration with PJ? I highly doubt that haha

    so did I, in '98.

    I know they played it in '97 also as well as 2000 and 2002 for the MTV $2 tour which I wanted to go and tried for tix but came up empty handed.

    Also mysterious artwork has appeared relating to the eight U.S. cities
