    I wonder if they won’t replace. They’ll bring someone in to record, and they'll bring someone in to tour. 

    But I think the band is now Stone, Jeff, Mike and Ed.

    Dave Krusen. 

    No other guesses. I just have a feeling it's Dave K.

    Hope all is well, Dimi🫡

    Would the much lighter touring schedule make Jack a possibility?

    Chad Smith doing double duty between PJ and RHCP (or maybe triple duty with the Eddie’s band this year) or
    Josh Freese I think would bring a really interesting vibe to the band

    I hope it’s not Chad Smith. I can’t stand the tone of his snare.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if they just became a festival band. Hire a touring drummer to play "the hits" and ride off into the sunset.

    So to recap some of the nominations:

    -Nobody/rotation 
    -Klinghoffer
    -Dave A
    -Dave K
    -Stuverud 
    -Smith 
    -Weiss
    -Bordin
    -Bonham 
    -Starkey
    -Irons 

    Am I missing any? And with apologies, I haven’t heard of all of them - if any were jokes let me know.  

    I like the nostalgia of one of the previous guys coming back.

    Kris Myers (formerly of Umphrey's McGee) would be the perfect choice.   He is technically plenty capable to play any of the parts , develop unique grooves in the pocket similar to the Irons era, and also can provide outstanding backing vocals.

    That is my take. They might be done touring.

    Jack Irons has the best grasp of the catalog Ten - Yield. That's my vote.

    Krusen would be my hope. Klinghoffer is my guess.

    I hate that it took Matt leaving for @dimitrispearljam to return here to us. You've been missed, Greek.

    My best guess would be someone much younger than the rest of the guys.
