    So “don’t forget to drink your ovaltine” translates to “don’t forget to use your code for discounted merch.”  Ha. Merch, merch and more merch.

    Pearl Jam now is more a business than a band. They will have an “announcement” saying when they announce a tour or album. They will never just announce something out of the blue. Their business model is putting out old music onto vinyls and making holiday themed shirts. When a tour finally does come I’m sure there will be a “countdown clock” like all the big bands do (I think Metallica is in the mist of one). This is why I prefer “smaller” bands. I saw Chad Stokes (Dispatch/State Radio) at G Love’s fest and I asked him if anything was on horizon and replied “new album in November and playing Boston in December”. I love Pearl Jam but they are way past telling common folks their business. Until I see a countdown clock I believe nothing. 
    I can’t really disagree. No new music, no shows. Just old recordings and merch. Sigh...
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Who has the balls to try that code on the next poster drop, see if it works or they miss the poster? Geez this was disappointing.

    A business where the merch guy posts popcorn memes when he should be testing the code included in a scheduled newsletter to customers.

    Me: OK, fine, so release vault shows that aren't already in circulation more than once a year.
    Them: No, we want to look forward, not backwards.

    Are you sorry about the non announcement on the 10th or the whole post?  I guess what I'm asking is do you stand by any of it and if so, why?

    A friend of mine, who occasionally has info come across his desk, told me this and as an excited fan, I decided to share it.

    Don't expect a response from @vzouzal but you're right, would be nice to know if the OP had a source and was duped/change of plans or they just made it all up.  Guessing the latter.

    This is more of an explanation than we have gotten from many who had hot rumors turn out to be false in the past.

    Was this one of those things where they feed various rumors through their camp to see what rumors get spread. Thus, finding the leak in their group and eliminating them from the circle of trust?
