    I hope I'm not too far off-topic...

    But when the Foo Fighters did an accoustic tour a couple years ago, tixx were impossible to come by. And somehow, they went from 4 members to 8 in playing accoustic sets; very strange. I did enjoy some of the songs they made on the "accoustic disc" of In Your Honor.

    i'm pretty sure there are a few drummers out there who would do ok

    seeing that they're been IN pearl jam before ;)


    or just grab someone from the tribute bands...

    not a fan of pearl jam and all acoustic sets. i don't know what it is, but i can't get into them... benaroya, boston 3/03, unplugged... they all get the least amount of play (if any) on my ipod.
    ironically, ed alone on acoustic sounds awesome.

    strange... especially since you like Ed's acoustic

    benaroya and the mansfield experiment are what helped me bring my wife over to the dark side ;)

    Whaaaa? Boston 3/03? Mansfield? July 11, 2003? THAT looks acoustic!
    Tour shows they were in Japan March 2003? Someone edjukate me?

    Santa Barbara '06 -- then wasn't Krakow or Hamburg a rather acoustic set? kadowice? Got those....

    Nah' for 20-year they're not ready for the whole acoustic thang, lets' put that off a few more years.

    But more Eddie please, my Dad's getting old and it's not like I'll be able to drag him around Europe further down the road.... What with JJ in Europe, I thought fo shore!

    I saw several of the Afoostic shows.....the songs sounded great, and Dave conveyed several clever anticdotes!

    They added a keyboard player, a violinist, a percussionist, and Pat Smear on guitar.

    I saw the Foos do a private corporate gig in Las Vegas last week.....their live show has gotten a bit stale!

    That was a good tour. Saw it here at Oakland Coliseum.

    An Accoustic "NO" Drums version of 'BLOOD"...I think I can handle that! lol... :P
  • No thanks, let's leave a PJ accoustic tour for a time when all our ears are ruined and we can no longer rock out.

    Supersonic, gotta feel it now
    I need to hear it, need to feel it loud yeh
    Supersonic, truth be told
    I wanna live my life with the volume full
  • I'd go.

  • hmmmm......I'm a HUGE fan of acoustic shows. But for some reason.....I don't know.....I'm hesitant to jump on this wagon. I LOVE PJ electric. I love Benaroya, and Unplugged, but I just love this band with full energy.

  • It's clear there has been a shift towards more profitable gigs/tours and money in general. An acoustic theater tour doesn't stand to make them very much money. It was all well and good for Ed but I couldn't see the whole band going for it.
