now that matt will be touring with soundgarden...perhaps jack comes back and they perform with him for a few shows in the fall...preferably in east coast.

then, lets say, they boot matt from the band record the next album with jack.....then BOOOM----we get the best album since yield.

what do you think?

THIS WILL HAPPEN.

sorry to be so hard on you.

I think the unspoken rule is that if you cannot actually spell the word buffoon when calling someone a buffoon, you may, in fact, be a buffoon. :?

Just sayin'.

U2 and the Stones go out and crank out the exact same (or really close) greatest-hits setlists night after night. Even when they play two nights in the same city, they basically play the exact same songs. They're clearly only in it for the money at this point. (Does a great artist paint the same painting over and over and over, or do they continually create new works?)

Maybe the reason Pearl Jam is able to produce vibrant new music (unlike the Stones and U2, neither of whom have made a decent record in 20+ years) is because they don't whore themselves out on huge tours. Shorter tours mean that the fans get true art, passion, a band that cares about the music, interesting setlists. As long as they continue to do this, who are we to demand anything else of them?

To be fair, when you have a stage/visual setup like the Stones and U2 do, it lends itself more to consistency rather than drafting unique set lists every night. You can debate what you prefer to get out of a show, but to just cast them off as whores is kinda silly.

I paid $55 bucks for a GA field U2 ticket last year that put me inside of their stage.....which cost less then my last 10c ticket.....just saying....

i can bet had you saw them the next night you woulda seen the same setlist and the band go through the same motions. if thats for you then by all means dont buy pearl jam tickets. least thats one less person i have to worry bout when getting tickets.

Yes....because in my post I clearly stated that I was no longer going to see PJ.....really dude...really?
