    Klinghoffer as the new drummer would see a bit odd. Would they then replace his role? If not, why was he there to begin with? It would be like when a co-worker takes a leave of absence and no one replaces him, you wonder why that position is even a thing?

    I think Dave A would be awesome just because he’s the summer on my favorite albums. But that will never happen.

    Dave K seems very plausible given that he partially filled in when Matt got covid.  If we’re taking bets, that’s who I’m going with, Matt Chamberlain second because of the connections he has with Stone still

    Klinghoffer is not really a drummer. Check the Ft. Worth 1 boot. The spare tire does a fantastic job of getting you there, but the whole time you're anxious to get back to the real deal.. He should remain in his current role.

    Good luck to the boys as they look to backfill a legend.

    I'd love to see Jimmy Chamberlin in the mix!

    Yes, Dave A is resentful. Good chance I’d be the same if I were in his shoes. 
    He’s not asking to be hired back though. He’s asking people to stop bombarding him with pleas to approach the band.
    He did take lot of words to just say “stop bombarding me” though.

    Some people have a hard time understanding “no.”

    Artificial intelligence itself. The band could cut costs redistribute the wealth to the touring staff and lower ticket prices for fans. Instead of a human drummer they should employee the Soy Bomb guy to do his weird shit.

    Whoever it is hopefully they don’t make the sets more predictable than they already are.

    They need someone who's as solid as Matt...Josh Freese it is then...and maybe then we could get a drum solo in Even Flow again...

    The departure of Matt means the end of Pearl Jam for me. I still may see them if they are close and I score 10C tickets. But I will not be working very hard to attend a concert without Matt. And I will not pay $250 a ticket to see a replacement.  

    Would you consider Jack Irons or Dave Krusen to be replacements, if hypothetically one of them are picked?

    I bet we hear nothing from the band about a new drummer for the remainder of the year.

    Not me, I loved Pearl Jam before Matt Cameron and will love them after.  They could have a drum machine and i would still show.

    I'm still on the Dave Krusen train, but Abe Laboriele is enough to make me 🤔
