Confirmed by Mike in this interview. Brendan O' Brien plays keys, which I think is a good thing. Also confirmed is that French Horns appear on Just Breathe:

    he will when you go see them live.

    yeah that's also said in the interview; that Boom will tour. But at least they're slowly phasing him out.....

    Boom was in the MySpace Backspacer video...I'm pretty sure he'll be on the tour. And there's nothing wrong with that!

    Not hate, could NEVER hate, but betw Brendan playing and Boom, definitely prefer Brendan who blows pretty much everyone else away...

    '00 12 shows / '03 4 shows / '06 6 shows
    '08 3 shows / '09 5 shows / '10 6 shows

    Well I don't hate just to hate ya digg? I dunno, I don't think he plays well enough to justify him playing with Pearl Jam. I mean, I guess he has character so that's cool. And you can yell BOOOOOOOOOM for his introduction (and it's not like I haven't done it). But he's just flat-out not good enough musician to be playing with Pearl Jam...there I said it. He couldn't outplay an elementary school music teacher.

    And what's with the unnecessary organ fills? And it's not like it's Boom's decision to make do this....I guess it falls on Eddie...but organ fills during the Alive solo? Gimme a break. That sounds so crappy when they do that. A little piano on Black is one thing, but Alive is a guitar song. Jimmy Page wouldn't put organ fills during the Black Dog solo would he? And Rockin' in the Free World and Crazy Mary don't need B3 solos. For the songs conceived with Boom (Love Boat Captain, Marker in the Sand, etc), fine, have him out there. Otherwise, get that aging hippie weirdo off the stage and let Mike solo!!

    I just wanted to get it off my chest one time....

    And here's another Boom theory I have: I think Stone HATES him. Really, put yourself in the room....beginning of the Riot Act sessions:

    Stone: Hey Ed, how was your vacation?

    Ed: Oh great man....great.

    Stone: Cool, yeah so I got some riffs, been going over a few things with Mike.......um.......yeah.....who's that crazy looking guy in the corner?

    Ed: That corner? Oh that's Boom

    Stone: Boom?

    Ed: Yeah Boom. I met him while I was surfing. He grows his own weed. He's cool man...he's going to play keys on the album.

    Stone: What?

    Ed: Yeah. Look I gotta go take a leak but I'll see ya in there. Go introduce yourself to Boom.....he's cool man.

    Stone: What? (Eddie exits, Stone walks up to Boom)

    Stone: Hey man, I'm Stone....I play guitar....and founded the band and.....

    Boom: ALOHA MAN!!! Where's the wine? Eddie said you guys always have lots of wine!

    Stone: Oh brother....
