Just saying. Listening to Welcome to Discovery Park this morning, just really good stuff, hopefully they play another show or shows here in Seattle sometime in the near future.

    I've been fortunate to see them live twice on two different continents. By far my top favorite 'active' PJ side group. Anything Shawn Smith does musically is amazing.

    Seeing them live is like seeing some nearly extinct animal out in the wild.

    I've seen them live a number of times, and am always blown away. Totally agree about Shawn. He's my favorite Seattle singer and one hell of a humble guy.

    I get so into Pearl Jam that I stupidly ignore their side projects and solo stuff, like this morning, I just needed a little break from PJ, probably will listen to some Three Fish later.

    Both Stone Gossard solo records are awesome - Moonlander is my favorite.

    Ament's 'Tone' is solid. I think I'm going to listen to that one.

    I hope I get the chance to seem love. Stone is an incredible musician.

    Which reminds me, on a side note - anyone hear any updates on The Little Ships?

    The funny thing is how they got the name, they wanted to use a different name, but another guy already had the name, which he was going to sell the rights to for like 10k, but then the guy jacked up the price once he found out Stone was involved, and the guys name is Brad, so they used that dude's name instead.

    I think I read somewhere they wanted to name the band Shame and used that as the first album title when they settled on Brad as the band name.
