    Double album with a surprise drop, Australia January/February, East Coast May-June, West Coast August-September. 2 shows in each city, 1 arena, 1 small venue fan club only. Pure speculation

    I love the Internet.  You have a guy in Italy arguing with a guy in Greece about 5 (6?) guys Comings-&-Goings in Seattle.  What a wonderful year 2019 is.  How come we don't have any sources in Seattle?  The last PJ book was written by a Dane.  Germany seems to have achieved a Boston/NY rep for fantastic shows.  And we wonder why PJ & Ed are always touring Europe.  Seems like that's where all the energy is.  Who's writing a PJ book in Philly or leaking info from Seattle?  Even our best PJ related charities are in the UK.  Someone bump Project Yellow Ribbon of North Jersey....PLEASE.  Plus the whining and moaning and complaining of the US fans is just the worst.  We are so entitled over here, no wonder the Band enjoys Euro Fans more.  Tough to admit, but the Band is just more Euro-Centric now.  They started as a US band, but not anymore, you go to where the love is.

    This rant started out as a check on who our sources are and how they get their info and how we discuss said info: but it really took a weird turn.  Sorry about that.  Just remember, it's been like this for the past 10-15 years.  Arena holds that were confirmed then cancelled.  10C promises made and then forgotten.  Big press-releases followed by silence.  Fits, and Starts and Stops, and side projects.

    Until the album pre-sale is up in the shoppe or you enter your info in the tour lottery, nothing is promised and nothing is guaranteed.  Tomorrow is not promised or guaranteed.  Until that 2017 holiday single shows up at your door it's just another sunk cost in your life.  Let it go.

    Life is so rich and varied and full of wonder and excitement.  Yes, PJ adds to that wonder & Excitement, but they shouldn't be and can't be the only sources of it.  Tap into your other sources of wonder & excitement until the PJ machine turns back on.   Enjoy your partner, Kids, a beer, a trip, a new culture, art, music, books, movies, God, Nature, friends, whatever it is.  Go Enjoy, we'll still be here waiting when you get back.

    Later, Chris.
     Perfectly worded Chris.

    In the meantime, It is exciting to see some news and rumors swirling around to get us excited for whats to come. Cant wait for the next shows.

    Earliest shows in the states would resemble 2016 with a run starting in early April with tix dropping in January if I recall.  Best Case

    I think it is a pretty lame comment with zero truth in it when pertaining to North American fans but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    Yeah, the last paragraph was well stated.  But the rest?  Meh

    I don't believe he was speaking about ALL the North American fans. There are many of us who don't come on here and complain every little chance we get about anything going on or not going on with the band, or even what "is owed to us as a fanbase". I like most fans come on here to discuss what are some of the things we have to look forward to with our favorite band, and relive some of the highlights of some of our greatest experiences. Now I will say this about @dimitrispearljam when he says anything about the band, I listen. The ghost seems to come through with a lot of information that you can take to the bank.

    That and the last paragraph is perfectly worded but who is it directed to? Is there people here not following these rules? We are on a Pearl Jam forum so of course the focus of discussion and central talk is going to be the band. Does everyone really want to hear about my trip to Shediac this weekend or the fact that I am pumped that 2020 is looking like a strong year to be a Pearl Jam fan. 

    Well worded but just not sure why its necessary I guess.

    Agreed.  All those things could apply to any group of fans.

    When I posted in another thread that they are definitely working on a new album, there was negativity and disbelief. I know you don't really know me, but I have nothing to gain by yanking yer chain. My good friend, for many decades, heard it straight from someone in the band. I don't know where they are in the process, but it is coming, and from the description, it sounds like it might be different from what we've heard. I wish I could say more, but I shouldn't even be saying the very little that I've said. I'm just excited and we should all just be excited for some new songs on horizon. 
    Dude, this is the type of post that are suppose to be in this forum......and yes, very exciting that there is new music on the horizon.

    I don't even know where double album came to the table. 

    I think this is one of those purple monkey dishwasher situations.

    Mercury was just leaked!  I wonder if this is new re-recorded or just the old demo we heard.

    I think, but could be wrong, that it was a post by Jill Vedder about one, maybe two albums forthcoming. The post was not up very long and some speculated that it was a PJ and EV solo album. Then before you knew it a double album was the latest guess.

    If we get a new lp. 12 new songs or so. And a tour of more then 30 shows. I'd be delighted. Have car will travel.

    Interesting in retrospect that none of those demos would wind up on Lightning Bolt.

    The band will never release a double album.

    I don't, but it was in mid-April and she took it down pretty shortly after posting it. It was an exchange in the comments in French. Source for the, cough, journalistic integrity of the inevitable altnation post: my text message history.
