    I'm late to the party,  just getting up to speed on this. GIGATON spelled backwards is Not-a-Gig. Maybe they wont tour anymore and just release a series of best of albums through Wal mart. =)

    Yeah right.  This things coming out on CD, black vinyl, colored vinyl, reel to reel, probably collectible 8 track too. 
    I don’t believe you. You didn’t mention laser disc or cassette. And the hologram version that shoots the image of the band playing the album live wherever you are. Ok, I would buy that.

    If Of The Earth doesn’t make it on an album called Gigaton, it won’t ever make an album.

    Yeah, I like that it didn't reveal Pearl Jam on the boards. That would have spoiled it. 

    I too am curious as to how long they've been up. Probably sometime this past week. I wouldn't be surprised that when the album is officially announced to the media, if these billboards get an update advertising the release date and saying that its the new album from PJ.

    Yeah I get why you would feel that way because you are a big fan and the way the billboards are set up is really just for the big fans. Who else besides big fans are going to bother finding a billboard and scanning it? I am just saying as a marketer, the big fans like you and I don't really need any hype to get us excited about a new album. We have been ready for six years. The general population hasn't been thinking about Pearl jam in who knows how long so advertising is important.

    I don't think ONE billboard in 11 cities is meant to generate a ton of new fans to the band.    How many non-Pearl Jam fans are going to drive by 11 billboards (or stuff on the side of buildings) and purely on the billboard decide to buy a new Pearl Jam album?    I'll jump off a building if it is more than 1,000 people.  Keep track.  Let me know if it is over 1,000 and I swear I'll jump off a building.  It is about social networking.

    It probably took 30 minutes at most to put these things up on the side of building.  Probably went up Thursday afternoon.

    I love the artwork and the backstory. I hope the music delivers too. Made me come back to the boards after a long hiatus!

     Here’s hoping Ed actually has something to say with his lyrics. Can’t Deny Me is one of my least favorite pj songs, but I can appreciate the context and lyrics.

    Just a guess: maybe they record those rehearsals on film!?
    And they also release a film of the new album where its played front to back in a rehearsal space/studio!
    That would be very, very cool!!!
    Metallica did that with St. Anger.
