    The Avocado production is sacrilege. Only owned the 2017 remix so I didn't realize how bad the production was until I heard Inside Job on PJ Radio

    Agreed. Possibly best PJ production next to Yield Vitalogy Gigaton (yeah I'm being serious).

    Of course I’m a weirdo who swears RA is a top

    Good read. That dude delivered it at MSG during Waiting for Stevie. Triple pickup SG. Loud. I also loved the Earthlings record. I guess dreams do come true.

    Andrew needs to tempt the guys to get back in the studio. Just bash out an EP.

    Yes.

    And force them into making something as hot-hot-hot as Riot Act again.

    Anyone listen to the Stern interview? If so, how was it? I was a Stern subscriber forever, canceled it last year, not too long after the band was on.
    May your days be long, til kingdom come.

    They went into the Waiting for Stevie riff, Howard loves the song… the story behind it, Earthlings 

    how Andrew appreciates Ed’s ability to create lyrics that us fans gravitate/ relate to… how he’s unique in that ability 

    brief mention Ed’s Bday bash.. Andrew meeting Neil

    his favorite PJ album is Vs
    Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin talk…
    Andrew producing pop acts, his hustle to get to do what he loves 

    lot of Elton John, Bieber, Ozzy, Chad Smith talk

    Howard knows Andrew’s GF family… pressure regarding an eventual engagement . 

    I may listen later, I’ll edit if other stuff came up

    If you don't even try for a discount, they'll offer you somewhere around $8/mo for everything offered.

    I got down to $4/mo for two years. I then extended for an extra month or so and they're sending me some headphones via another offer.
