    I can't help but remember (just a few years back) how everyone was on pins-and-needles for the GREATEST Pearl Jam news - ever. Folks called in sick to work, some waited at home, late, so they didn't miss ANYTHING about this HUGE proclamation. It is true, others sacrificed meaningful things like taking a vacation day or not getting paid, just for this news?

    This was all bull-shit, blah, blah, blah about a record release - "TA DA!
    Yay, a record!!! Isn't it great??? Aren't you jamily members excited about this fantastic news?!? It is simply wonderful for you jammers, yee-ha!"

    WTF? That was all? You mean to say that I didn't get paid today, so I could stay glued to my computer? That was a stupid waste of time and money for a simple record announcement... I'll never fall for that one again, ever.
    Everyone is born, but not everyone is born the same. Some will grow to be butchers, or bakers, or candlestick makers. Some will only be really good at making Jell-O salad. One way or another, though, every human being is unique, for better or for worse.

    He is probably talking about the release of Man of The Hour. What a joke. Or maybe he is referencing the big, bold, and free statement. I would prefer they just send us all an e-mail when there is big news.

    Who told you, or anyone else, to stay home from work and not get paid? If you made that choice, deal with it. It was your choice.

    i know your "joking" a bit but if your taking off of work because there might be "big" news then frankly you deserve to be let down!! its not like if its a tour the tix will go on sale that second! but i do think you may have a overall good point here...thats why im not overreacting...i am hopeful but i have a feeling it won't be the greatest news for a lot of us

    I remember the last time I got this excited and it ended up being a huge letdown (I live in Texas)...so I'm not getting my hopes up.

    Sorry for the negativity!! Hopefully I'll have a pleasant surprise this time?

    The Body of War post was clearly posted yesterday, on Monday, which was definitely not the middle of the week tweet.
