    I'm still surprised hardly anyone is clamouring for Merkinball.

    Is it hard to find?  I once had two copies and sold one.  While it hasn't been repressed, it's never been an expensive find?

    Things I think would be cool:

    Release bridge schools, do a year at a time, that'd give us RSD release for a number of years :)

    A couple of years ago I asked Neil what he would think if artists wanted to release their Bridge School shows, with benefits going to the school. He said nobody had asked yet, but thought it could be a cool idea.

    I'm not sure how that would work with PJ.  For most of the bridge school performances they were under contract with EPIC/Sony.  Can they release material recorded while under contract, would EPIC/Sony bother if they couldn't make a profit.

    The charitable nature of the thing didn't even occur to me, when I wrote my post I just wanted them to be released, I forgot to be concerned about where the money goes :)

    Not sure why that would matter. They've released tons of stuff recorded in the Epic era in the post-Epic era

    That would be so wonderful if Pearl Jam released all their Bridge School Benefit performances on vinyl.
