    Well documented that Jeff isn’t the biggest fan of touring. But, you wouldn’t know night in and night out. He usually seems to be having a blast.

    btw, Ed just couldn’t resist a wave/surfing metaphor. 

    It’s reassuring to hear that they still believe magic happens when they get together. That’s a great sign 34 years in!

    These are always nice, but I hate that half of it is devoted to recapping the basic story. I get it, many who watch this may not know it and we aren’t the audience for it, but if you’re gonna take time to interview them, I’d like something a bit more in-depth. 

    Sometimes there’s longer cuts that come out later. Hopefully that’s the case here.

    That’s why the Zane Lowe interview is probably the best they’ve done since Pj20. Maybe ever.

    Agree. Nothing new here. The setlist list discussion was cool but other then that, nothing new. I did not realize Jeff was 61, that provides some perspective.  
  • Looking forward to the extended version they always put out on YT. Nice to see as some of us go through post-tour depression.

    Awesome to watch. Taking my 7yo to her third show at Ohana, and I think it's just dawning on her how big PJ are and were by seeing Eddie Vedder up close on TV. The same guy she watched from the stands back in May. 

    Super excited, she wants to try to get close to the stage on Friday 😊

    Now I understand why the camera was following Jeff around at the festival. I remember thinking “that interviewer looks very familiar.”
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    Didn’t realize that Bad Radio footage was out there.  Think I only saw one song before.

    I can't manage to find it. I'm on paramount+ but it's just showing the episode from 9/15
    It'll be on Paramount plus later. But you should be able to watch live channels through there. Although it's too late for that now.
    I watched it on Instagram 🤷🏻‍♀️ PJ’s account shared it.

    Super that she wants to party by the stage! Good luck and have fun!

    Jeff loves doing the shows!... But not the grind of touring

    I imagine it’s the downtime between shows that wears on you the most. Not in your house. Difficult to be really productive. Lot of sitting around and waiting.

    We've got an Ohana-specific one designed :) I just worry she won't be able to see very well, and she's gotten too big to get on my shoulders :/

    Appreciate it!

    They travel well. The 5 star hotels are probably nicer than their homes. I would guess it is the shows and the travel that are physically demanding. Being away from family. I can imagine that being 60 on a tour bus or multiple flights in a short time is no fun. But they still do it and that is why we love them. I wish Ed had honestly answered that question.

    IMO he did answer it. If he loved touring and being on the road he would have said it. Silence is loud at times.

    Honestly doesn't look too glamorous & I just saw a few stills here. Nice chairs though.

    I guess that is true. But he probably did not want to speak for the whole band. Hard to believe how long they have been doing it.

    I agree. I’m sure each member has their own thoughts/ feelings about life on the road so was trying to cover for everyone there.

    I think he didn’t want to share his opinion (whatever it is) in front of the guy who has said he isn’t a big fan of being on the road - Jeff. 

    Of course, touring is BY FAR the biggest source of revenue for them. All the derivative profit sources of being on the road help make it worth their while. 

    I know the guys love what they do and it’s clear are still passionate about making music and playing in front of adoring fans; but…there must be many facets that just feel like work. Nothing wrong with that. Cheers to them for continuing to give us their art and experiences we cherish. 

    I’ve been saying this for a long time now; everything we get from them is icing on the cake at this point.

    Not sure what I was expecting but it was a lot more than that. Kinda disappointing.

    Yeah. Speaking as someone who hit Ambassador status with Marriott before Labor Day this year, sitting around, not having your usual routine, not being at home, it kind of sucks.

    I want to see a picture of the newly designed PJ Ohana shirt you made her!!! So incredible you do that! 

    I took my girl when she was nine to Ohana and a really nice guy standing next to me put her on his shoulders during her favorite song off of Gigaton, "Take the Long Way", which was Matt Cameron's creation, and for amazing Corin Tucker pro-choice verses in RITFW. I'll have to play her the full album before we go down under so I know which one she likes best off of Dark Matter!

    Not much you can fit in in 8-9 minutes. Especially when we know most of that stuff. But the casual or non fan doesn't
