    Especially now with a show announced it opens the door for other stuff to happen. Which makes it more annoying to check replies and just see Seinfeld jokes.
    I think we’re all anxious for rumors too.  There’s been a variety of comments about a lot of topics including Seinfeld.  I think we’re all  trying to keep the thread bumped and pass the time while we wait.  No harm intended.   😊
    You can stuff your sorrys in a sack!

    Okay, okay, I'll ease up, too
    Let me give you a word of advice, okay? I want you to stay away from me. I don't want to talk to you, and I don't want to hear any more of your stupid little notes and suggestions. I don't like you. So if you got any other problems, whether it's raisins, prunes, figs, or any other dried fruit, just keep it to yourself and stay out of my way, okay?

    Saw a clip of of Kim Thayil potentially giving away that Freese and Barret are not the drummers.  Depends on how you interpret it though.

    I’m amazed that the drummer hasn’t leaked yet.

    I don’t think they were ever in contention for the gig.

    I'd be surprised if it was either of them but I don’t think that clip tells us anything

    At this point in the band’s career who sits behind the kit doesn’t really matter anymore does it! At least not for me

    Agreed. As long as they can keep time (and maybe even slow it down a bit on some songs as opposed to MC :wink:) I'll be satisfied. 

    Edit to add that I am not musically inclined at all, so maybe it wasn't MC's fault that songs like GTF and SOLAT are played so fast nowadays.  Come to think of it, Mike does play the intros awfully fast lol. So maybe it's his fault haha

    I think they definitely slowed some songs down in the last few years.
    I expect them to announce shows shortly after Ohana

    Only in the sense that I hope it's a full-time member. Once these bands start putting touring/studio members in key roles it starts becoming a different thing.

    Yes AND whoever joins might never really feel like a full member given where they are in their careers. Unless, maybe, it’s someone who is really part of their history.

    As long as they write, record, tour, and appear in pictures I'm good with whomever it is

    I’d say so! I can’t see him doing these two shows and then the rest of the band joining him to head down in SA

    well theorically not really.

    it says its the only EV shows in South America , not PJ Shows.

    Also in 2014 PJ did Europe and after that EV did a festival in Portugal so it´s not impossible, in fact it might make them more strong?
