Thanks for everything Matt!!!

Jack Irons is only turning 63 next week and the band is not touring as much as it did so…

Eddie once said that if anything ever happened to Matt, Jack would be the first call.

However, that first call was to Dave Krusen a few years ago, right?

We gotta wonder if the announcement about the hiatus in Pittsburgh was related, right?

This is breaking my heart. I hope he is ok. I am hanging on “More to follow.”

Matt Fucking Cameron. Signing off!?! Damn that’s hard to take.

Well, it’s all impermanent anyway…

I remember thinking the champagne was odd but I have never been to an "end of the tour" show so I wasn't sure if they always did that?

No, The champagne was odd. I thought that at the time. But that video with all the hugs with Matt - I didn't notice that at the time. I am grateful to have been there for his last show with the band.

Oh man, never saw that coming. I hope it's just Matt wanting to retire and nothing serious. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Thank you Matt Cameron, you rock big-time!

This is a gut punch. Maybe we get Jack Irons back. No matter how cold the winter,there's a springtime ahead.

The final toast.

I'm surprised no one on this board read into all the hugs the band gave Matt at the end of the show. Hindsight...

Glad i got to see the gig—didn't catch this but it does seem significant in hindsight.
