    Seriously, hope they just release a statement. Watching the Stones, and I'll admit if I could I would go, but don't want to see PJ go out like that. An album, a tour, and a statement. And the Ten Club filling up with clips and testimonials of the memories.

    It was just a fantasy,nothing more than that.

    I certainly understood this thread and treated it strictly as you intended. Picture Pearl Jam doing a farewell tour and discus what you'd like to see. Fair hypothetical thread that doesn't deserve anything but hypothetical answers.

    I'd also like to see them play their farewell tour in cities, towns, parks where they've never played. Northwest Territories, the Yukon, Nunavut, ISRAEL (anywhere in Israel) and to have opening acts that no one has ever heard of. New bands - like... garage bands of teens just starting out. Fuck, that'd be so sweet. And then PJ comes on and rocks out. Man..... what a dream!

    What you describe would truly be a farewell tour as Matt would rightfully say f you and the band would cease to exist as a result. I still don't understand why folks want former drummers that the band either can't get along with or can't match lifestyle desires with. Bizarre. The past is done. Live in the present tense.

    ^THIS^
    There are good reasons why these other guys are no longer with the band anymore. And the nostalgia factor for them is baffling to me too. Why?

    Matt Cameron is more talented then any of the past drummers IMO anyway.

    I do find it funny too that if you really look at it a drummer is an overlooked "guy in the back of the stage" that can be easily overlooked, but if you look at truly great drummers like Matt or Dave Grohl look at how often they get asked to step in and drum for people in other bands or projects. At one point a friend of mine in my small hometown was drumming for like 5 different bands because talented drummers were hard to find.

    In a hypothetical world I would be happy to see Dave A behind the drums again for a song, even if just to publicly burry the hatchet.
    However, there will never be a farewell PJ tour, I don't dare say it, but we all know the only thing that will stop this band.

    I thought Mick mars had been dead for years. Ooops.

    Could just be a propped up scarecrow on the platform...as they all look half dead.
