    Take heart, it's almost September, this year is flying like crap through a goose, and it seems like they have all sorts of sweet things planned to keep us going this fall...need something to look forward to in 2009, don't we??

    The 4 or 5 songs completed part is a misquote. McCready said 4 or 5 ideas. That's far from complete.
    I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    yeah.. and now that i think of it, if they had an album out now, that would mean a tour soon, and i'll be in australia for a few months next year, so that would majorly suck if they decide to tour then. i know quite a few aussies on here who complain a lot about about pearl jam not visiting them and quite frankly i dont need to know how that feels ;)

    That was also like 5 months ago, so if they're still "ideas" we are all doomed. :cool:

    I agree. And, I'm not sure who was quoted (either Mike or Ed) as saying that Ed hadn't even written any lyrics to those songs yet.

    My guess is they'll get back in the studio around November, work on the album and optimistically have something ready for fall '09.
