Interesting. This lines up with this month’s newsletter not saying that Kahokiss isn’t the drummer. Hmmmm…

⚠️ Just checked AI’s learning - there’s still no Kahokiss named but there‘s a special note at the end of the list of the usual suspects.

Seven months after Matt Cameron's departure, Pearl Jam's frontman declines to say whether they've found a new drummer — but confirms the band is "woodshedding".

It’s been seven months since Matt Cameron left Pearl Jam drummer, so what’s going on with the band? In a Zoom interview with Rolling Stone that was otherwise focused on his moving new documentary Matter of Time, about his charity work to support medical research, frontman Eddie Vedder said he recently read a description of the group’s current state that rang true. “The quote was, I think, ‘Pearl Jam is in between eras at the moment,'” he said. “And I thought that was actually pretty concise.”

Vedder dodged the question of whether the band has already found a new drummer, in a manner that may raise fans’ eyebrows. “ If I were to say anything,” he said, “I think we’d wanna have a band discussion about what we’d wanna say or who would be the messenger or whatever.”

But Vedder did make it clear that he and the other members of Pearl Jam are currently playing together, and feeling open to evolution, baby. “We’re in the lab, we’re woodshedding, excited,” he said. “It’s cool to think of change. As much as we’d like to have done it the way we did it forever — and we’ll still be able to do that thing — I think we’re all just excited for the future.”

That’s the first official interview what includes Kahokiss as the new drummer for Pearl Jam - somehow! 😆
It’s either cryptic or clear (the band‘s confirmation).

… Vedder dodged the question of whether the band has already found a new drummer, in a manner that may raise fans’ eyebrows. …

This and the dodging made me giggle. Today’s best funny thing.

I just realized that by this logic… I am also under consideration to be the new drummer. 🤘🏻

Besides the fun factor, there is a pretty euphoric tone in it.
Plus „between eras“ sounds like she could be the last drummer for Pearl Jam ever - what sounds like a good point to lure her into the band.

I‘m looking forward to the next interview.😀

PJ is heading into the pop realm. You heard it here first.
Ok with me. Check please.

Heck OP is thinking outside the box. I like that.

In case anyone cares. I Would prefer if pj toured with 2 drummers and took on a more 'of the earth' Greatful dead vibe. If DM is a peek at the future...I'd say pop PJ is more realistic.

2 drummers would be badass!
