    WMMR plays album tracks. A single play before 5 a.m. is likely an outlier. There hasn't been any outreach to radio saying that there's a new single.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    They said 'new song' from PJ'.  They have been playing Dark Matter and Wreckage a lot.  No way they just pulled out Waiting for Stevie in the middle of the #1 rated morning show in Philly.  Going to bet this is the new single.

    Well WFS is a certified banger, so even if it isn't the new single, they would surely be forgiven :lol:

    Bring Stevie to Chicago, either night. Or both!

    I saw on the playlist that it was played at 4:57 a.m., but maybe it was adjusting to Pacific Time for me since I'm in L.A. Even still, the song has not been serviced to radio. Maybe that's coming, but it hasn't happened yet.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    I suppose we did.  Albeit I had no idea at the time, they'd never play it again :)

    I hope they play it in Boston tomorrow just so we know they know they have that song. But, you know, you can't skip Wreckage for one night.

    Bahan’s Pick Of The Week, Pearl Jam “Waiting For Stevie”



    Posted on September 18, 2024

    X Rockers! Well, here we are, rolling into September and Fall. Where did Summer go? Looking back on this Summer, and the vast array of amazing tours out there, the Seattle Rockers Pearl Jam certainly stand out this year, not only for their legendary live shows, but also for releasing a great new album this year, ‘Dark Matter.’ The album is widely acclaimed as one of Pearl Jam’s best, and with Andrew Watt producing the album, it seems as if the band has a new lease on their sound and legacy. The latest single from the band, “Waiting For Stevie”, is about the band literally waiting for the legend Stevie Wonder coming in to play harmonica on a solo song for Eddie Vedder. Vedder and Andrew Watt were inspired after working with Stevie Wonder on a new song. The lyrics are about music, and music changing your life and the inspiration it gives you. The riff and harmonies are stellar, and vintage Pearl Jam. It’s my Pick of the Week! Rock!

    Well, it's not *about* that. It's just titled that because that's what they were doing when they wrote it.
