that's why I'm wondering if this is legit. I'm about 99% sure that it is, but you would think that the 10 club would be selling it, at least be announcing it

Yes.....can not wait. We are going to see just how important Jeff is to this band.

I'm looking forward to it also, but his solo work is irrelevant to his importance to the band IMO

yeah, I'm sure it is, but an announcement or a sticky would definitely get me to 100%

Oh hell, it had better be legit, I ORDERED IT!!! Got the email confirmation too. I was wondering the same thing about 10 club, maybe Jeff wanted to keep it separate from PJ stuff, or maybe this isn't a sticky because 10 club doesn't want us ordering this from Lou, now that I think of it...does seem a little strange that this wouldn't be on the PJ site main page. I'm telling you, behind every dark cloud, there's a thunderhead!

Hope this is for real, every time I've thought about it today, I've had a little anxiety attack, which is how I experience anticipation!!!

I'm sure it's legit. I have to wait until the end of the month to order it anyway, but I will be ordering it

edit: also, I know that I've already said this, but I though the album was called "aTONEment" not just TONE. Something about this just doesn't seem right.

Yes, I said that in my first post too, my thinking is that maybe, upon reflection, Jeffy realized that saying the name of the album wasn't the same as the way it looks when spelled out, the ament/tone thing would be lost, so you'd get a lot of buh duh interviewers asking him what he has to atone for! Maybe the finished cover art will be jeff aTONEment, something like that? See, I get all creative just thinking about him...

I'm hoping Lou doesn't bill till they ship, my MC doesn't close for the month until Friday

damn... no offense to them but matts not the most impressive jazz drummer... and his keyboardist is even more disappointing... failing at new genres must just be a soundgarden thing

i just want to hear more matt vocals at some point!

I let my dad listen to the harrybu mccage cd and this was what he had to say about Matt: "Its amazing how he good he is at jazz but at the same time how many better jazz drummers there are than him."
