    speaking as a drummer:


    having up to 5 drummers perform thru out would take weeks of rehearsel..not to mention when a drummer changes, they are going to have to stop and bring in the next drummers kit, mic it up, tune etc. of course all of that could be done in advance but i think it would seriously hinder the flow of a show.


    Exactly. This is why THIS is how it should go down.

    What would you all say to two festivals celebrating Pearl Jam's 20th Anniversary in late Summer 2010? One in the East Coast, one in the West Coast.

    3 days in a field in each location.
    A main stage, and a second stage.

    Great additional acts like:
    -Neil Young & Crazy Horse
    -Soundgarden
    -QOTSA
    -Ben Harper
    -Mudhoney

    Plus all former members invited back to participate in songs they wrote, as well as to feature their current bands on a second stage. And they could arrange this around any kids being born, since it's only four days total of show days. (p.s. yes this is similar to my 4/1 poster)

    Plenty of people will say "It'll never happen" or "this isn't in my location" or "I don't like Dave A" ...yada, yada.



    I'm asking is for a "thumbs up" or a "thumbs down". Add whatever opinion you want. Lots of opinions on the board... but please include a thumbs up or down on this idea as is. :)



    Here's an image link to thumbs up:

    and to thumbs down:

    my vote = THUMBS UP :)

    -plus rarities from that era for the encore
    -Krusen, Irons and Cameon join in on additional percussion during WMA


    NIGHT 2:
    NO CODE (with Irons)
    YIELD (with Irons)
    BINAURAL (with Cameron)

    -plus rarities from that era for the encore
