I cannot express in words what a pleasure it is to know Richard Stuverud, and I am so very enthralled to share with you my recent conversation with him about his new album, Hummingbird, (and many other things) - especially but certainly not because of his recent tap on the shoulder to man the helm of my very most favorite band on the history of the planet Earth, Pearl Jam. Drink it in Richard. We're all so happy for you, and your exuberance did the moment justice. Well pounded, sir. So happy to know you.
To all who have pre ordered Hummingbirds on vinyl, I promise to ship out the record as soon as I have it.. even if I have to fly to the Czech Republic and help print this goddamn record myself and get it into your hands!
When McCready leaned over and said “Keith Moon the shit out of this one!!”… I obliged. However,
I might’ve put in a little bit of Mitch Mitchell as I rocked my
Electric Lady Studios T, which was gifted to me by co owner Lee Foster
many moons ago. Thank You Lee!!
-There are really no words to describe it. Clichés
aside, there is absolutely no denying the overwhelming feeling of love
when performing….playing drums to be more precise….and to even be more
precise than that….playing drums as a guest with a great great band such
as PJ! The energy and the exchange between the band and the audience is multidimensional. Gravity
goes sideways, sometimes the 1 disappears and dissolves into pure rock n
roll chaos with an unbelievable level of adrenaline. Pearl Jam fans are an incredible force of nature. I am so glad I got to feel that exchange, even for a millisecond inside the big picture. …particles of happiness abounds… Honored and grateful.
