The original bass player (Jim Kale) lives next door to friends of ours, 5 minutes away from me. Apparently he's a fucking kook.
What an absolute crock of shit this has been. Imagine if Pearl Jam split up, and Matt and Jeff hired 3 unknowns, touring the country as Pearl Jam, playing their songs, and using their likenesses as promotion. Finally Burton Cummings sacrificed his own financial gain and squeezed the life out of those imposters.
Now let's get these guys in the RRHOF.

the Smiths and the Band come to mind
i kind of think of PJ as Jeff and Stone’s band and everyone else as the “new guys” so to speak. Hypothetically if they ever did break up, I don’t see this playing out.
may they keep playing on for years to come…
and I will second your Guess Who nomination
